lotsa stuff

Gee man, that seriously sucks. :/ Now I feel bad about getting on yer arse about "the composer". Best of luck, my friend. Hopefully all will turn out well. Are missionaries allowed to accept stuff? Because if they come by my place I'm probably going to force my parents to invite them in and get them some coffee and cookies or something, and although I doubt they'd be persuaded, just listen to them for the sake of not cutting them off at the door.

Because this week's theme is easy. A sad song. Ok go! Done.

A song is a song, every single one deserves as much thought as any other. I'm also impressed at how fast everyone are finishing their submissions. But I also agree that many people are pretty fast. Some of us are not, I'm still having trouble with strings and I started weeks ago :(

Sorry to ask what I'm almost certain is a stupid question, but is there a length maximum to entries?

2 songs max, no length limit on them. Though the longer you make it the higher chance you'll have to reduce bitrate to fit the 8 meg limit, so watch yourself.

Also Jazza, always good to hear from you, though what we hear now is quite sad. Welcome to the contest and keep your chin up.

Thanks. : )

Alright, I finished my submission,
Here it is!

I've worked really really hard on this; my grandfather just died, and I wrote this immediately after the funeral. To be honest, the majority of it is simply improvisation, for I was so overcome by sadness after he passed away that all I had to do was sit at the piano and let the notes come to me.

I really hope you enjoy it as much as I do, thanks for listening, good luck to all the competitors!

The Ten Dawns- Close the Door

The world's saddest band deals with interruption.

My song, entitled You Suck.

Simple is always better.

they'd love that. i'm sure they would REALLY love some form of non-abuse. the world seems to hold a bias agains missionaries as if they berge into peoples lives. They offer answers to questions with a smile and if theyre not interested thats all they need to say.

Unfortunately some missionaries were poinsoned once because some stupid lady put crap in cookies she fed them to try and kill them or something, so it's kinda a rule to not accept food or anything, but hey lol, any form on nice-ness is appreciated.

have a good one man and thanks

Wow, so many entries..
it's gonna be an hard contest!

Yeah, we were on a mission trip helping repair a lady's house, and a missionary came to her door, and i felt so bad, because the lady we were working for was an EXTREMELY nice person. Like, she invited us in for lunch and everything, she fixed us strawberry shortcake and fresh watermelon, but she wouldn't even so much as listen to the lady who came to the door.

Yeah, I can see why food would be a bad idea. It seriously sucks how religious differences can breed such hatred between people, and that people blindly overlook the call of more or less every religion to love everyone as your equal.

Carf adds himself to the contest with the following tracks:

Unboundet Sadness

Does anyone know of a really good strings VST? I kinda felt the need to use 'em in one of my submissions...

Everyone Cries

This is a sad song sung to a young boy who loses his mother in a cold rainstorm.

Toxic III Is great, see if you can get ahold of the full version of it, because if you use the demo you will get wave sounds as a demo-stamp.

MY SECOND ENTRY.

I noticed everyone was going for a classical style, with pianos and stuff, so I thought I'd try some Ambient/Techno/Classical fusion!

Good luck everyone!

Damn there are alot of entries. Darkside is gonna be swamped by the end of this thing
