Response to The Underdog List 2008-10-14 13:08:22


Hmm, I just came across this today...should've done this sooner :S

Well, I nominate myself, Kazmo

I've been signed up to NG since early 2006, and posted a lot of stuff back then. I actually just got back to NG late September of this year, so I've been MIA for 2 years. I just needed a break from this place, but now I'm back, and I've improved my techniques quite a bit.

Yay, some history. I've been playing the piano since the age of 4 and have stopped taking lessons a few years ago. I got up to grade 9 piano, but I can also play some grade 10 pieces from the Royal Conservatory series. I've been in several bands throughout my high school life. I'm in uni right now and am in the Concert Winds at the UoG, playing the Bass Clarinet.

Now some more meaningful history. I've been using FL since late 2005, or perhaps early 2006. FL5 was what I used back then. Then when FL6 came out I really liked the Multi Channel Compressor, really saved the day/projects. With the release of FL7 I was overwhelmed by the quality and new Parametric EQ 2. FL8 is by far the best with the new Maximus compressor/limiter/gate, as well as the Limiter. I use the Maximus for my master compressor, really adds oomph and depth to my songs, heck, I even made my own preset master channel that houses a P EQ 2 and Maximus, tweaked of course.

My latest projects are only a few months old, and were made on my Laptop, unless I said otherwise, then they were on my PC for a while and I decided to upload them. A few saw the light on the front page for a few days, which shocked me.

I honestly could care less about the scores, as long as people leave comments I'll be really happy.

Thanks in advance.

Self nominations
"Like the old Underdog List, you WILL be allowed to nominate yourself. However, to prevent this from turning into a spamfest, there are some rules to follow:

- No posting links to your songs
This isn't the Audio Advertisement thread. You can post links to your profile only, and the rest of NG will decide what songs of yours to showcase.

- Tell us about yourself
Give us a bit of history! How long have you been doing music? What programs do you use?"

:Isn't that what I just did?

bjra, in 20 days your second most recent song got these stats

312 votes
3,990 listens
726 downloads

you are by no means legible for underdog. You get your slice of attention. I will be trying to bring this back from the dead, perhaps start using some of these for front pages

I nominate S20, aka Super20SS for the list. He is a jazz force to be reckoned with.

I'd Consider myself an underdog. I barely got any reviews on my music and I really wish I had. I love being critized even if its bad critizism.

Enough of that. I play guitar. And I recently started using RiffWorks. My first were recorded with kristal then I realized RIffWorks is better. And now I use RIffWorks, I only have two songs made from it.
I use guitarport to record. I want review mainly, whether its good or bad, I want reviews, as long as they aren't spam.... I only recently started recording. I have a year of experience wth guitar, and I really loved to play so I bought an electric with some recording equipment to start. I plan on Recording more in the FUture, and also fixing up the old songs I made through Kristal.

I swear at thee underdog might I be! Well granted I haven't been on here a whole lot lately, but one of my audios did manage to win a contest, {IDR}- Radio Future. Otherwise non ofmy audios have over 18 votes. Been here for a year. I feel so unloved and nobody is telling me why T_T.

Greetings everybody!
I'm relatively new in submitting music to the Audio Portal. I've been around though, listening and reviewing a lot.
I taught myself how to play the piano and I have been doing so for about 8 years. One of the favorite things for me to do is compose. And since I do compose, I wish to share my music.
My music is mainly limited to piano solely because I haven't had time to learn how to use Fruity Loops. Also, the recording quality for my songs are less than desirable because of my lack of recording equipment, but I am looking to upgrade soon.
I hope people will listen to my songs. Please review so that I can improve!
Enjoy!

-HFX ^_^

I don't know, I guess i'm an underdog? My songs aren't like, the most amazing things to ever hit Newgrounds, but i really like them. With each song I improve and whatnot. I'm classically trained in piano. Over 12 years of experience under my belt. I have complete understanding of what music can and will be. I've been around NG for about.. i'd say like 4 years. But this account is farely new. Well, that's pretty much it. Thanks for your time.

I personally don't think you're at a stage considerable for underdog. You have a lot to learn and please remove your Only Time "Remix", using Enya's original song and throwing a rather poor perc beat on top of it doesn't constitute remix, and is grounds to have you banned. Only submit material that is ONLY YOURS. Your latest song borders on illegal too.

I'd like to nominate someone who's fairly new to the audio portal, Valfore-X-1.

Yeah, he hasnt been on for that long at all, not even 2 weeks yet. But I heard his first song, and I must say I was fairly impressed on how he did for a first. I mean, that was a LOT better than most firsts I hear.

However, his score and popularity count don't quite show what I'm saying. So hey, give his song a review, a vote. I guarantee you you wont be disappointed.

I disagree, his score and popularity reflect the midi rip that was that song. Thank you for your efforts in nominating somebody else Paul, but he is the furthest definition of Underdog.

Well, I don't know if I'm an underdog.
I usually make trance, but I whouldn't even think of compairing me with Dj-nate or cornandbeans. So I thought I'd "sign" up for the underdog list :P

Is it legal to nominate another account that hasnt gotten the attention it may or may not deserve?

you mean an alt? I wouldn't encourage it but i'm not going to stop it either. After all we're here to find great music from lesser known people. If the alt holds some really great stuff, I don't see why the person who owns the alt shouldn't get credit for it.

Response to The Underdog List 2008-11-27 16:46:54


I didn't really want to do this, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to nominate myself after a while. I've been doing my music thing for about 4 years now, and didn't start uploading here 2 years after that. I like to limit myself to my imagination and emotions, however I feel or want to experiment with I go for and make. I try my best and each piece I throw something new out there, either being a totally different style, or deciding to clash two things together, I just do it for the fun of the art. That's about all I can really say about myself, just depends on what everyone else thinks.

it's not that you don't have what it takes, but you have a fair bit of popularity already. Your most recent song has dozens of votes and 15 reviews.

this guy.. i was just cruising the tunes around and i noticed some of his stuff.. its odd but i like it.
i always love good orchestra stuff.. he has music from 2007 that had only 5 votes. and his recent stuff just looks like it went to through the maybe 6 hours on the audio page. some of his stuff has reviews but i really think his music should be out there more than it is.
