Awesome!

Also, what if there was an "under the ocean" NAC or an "Under Water Nac". I think It could bring out some awesome entries. Also, an "evolution of music" NAC could be cool, where competitors write a song that starts of with prehistoric like music and gradually evolves through the different musical ages. OR there could be an "emotion" NAC, where the judges choose an emotion and the contestants try to create a song portraying that emotion.

I dunno, just brainstorming...

That's actually a good idea! Chronological evolution of music progression in one song. Inspiring for sure. Let's remember that one for future NAC ideas.

Just started a dubstep song today, legit coincidence. Feelin pretty confident about this one.

This would be a true test of skill and certainly result in some interesting submissions.
I like this idea!

Agreed.

So we CAN sample vocals in this (vocals published under CC and approved to use by the author)?
Splicin'em though, you cant recognize words or previous melodies in the orginal.

Let the cheesy chord progressions begin!

Do they have to be created SPECIFICALLY for your song though, thats my question.

That sounds divine. That would most certainly work for the April NAC.

At 4/1/11 03:48 PM, Chronamut wrote: "Uplifting / Heavenly themed" you say? Why that could cover a lot of things! Things like:

Angelic choirs!
Music with nice relaxing waves in the bg!
Sweeping goregeous pads!
Foresty flutey stuff!
Harps and pianos, bells!
Happy happy happy sounding music!
all of the above combined with a driving beat

Does this mean an uplifting country piece about momma, hard work to get somewhere, trucks, redemption, and/or community won't work well for this competition?

ehhh.. I found that song too muffled and the melodies too.. random sounding.. would need to be mroe structured.. more crisp.. more focus on the high end.

Then i have definitely missundestood this NACs criteria. Damn. Need to read those again =/

listen to the "sound from the above" links from youtube that I provided - that's pretty much the ideal.
