I'm going to sorta guess the whole twitter thing fell through? lol
Nobody was following it so I didn't bother, if people do start to follow though updates will be made.

It only makes sense.
Oh, and I think I've got the title too the song i think, but haven't quite figured the Genre. This is also of course if you are allowed to present a work in progress to help you better the song, since I've submitted an earlier draft (But that has been deleted). If not, then i've gots more work ahead of me....

I'm happy for you to submit drafts. I will also be willing to look at the mark scheme and say where you need to improve. Of course, I'm only one of about 10 Judges, so take into account that I'm not the only one judging. I'll just mark it how I would if you submitted it as a piece to the contest.
I won't give marks or scores but simply say where you need to look to gain more points.

Hey, just asking, since this is supposed to be all original work, does that mean I can't sample for my backing track? I have no problem giving credit where it's due, but I know that a lot of the other contestants will be using programs like FL where they create everything from scratch. So for the sake of fairness, does that mean I can't sample? Or should everyone else just consider doing so?

Unfortunately you will have to make your own backing track. If you can find another artist to make a backing track for you I'd be happy to submit your entry as a collaberation. Which is allowed for this contest.

Pich, you are confirmed for San Marino. Please make sure you remember to submit the track. I don't mean to be assumative, but when We've had people not submit stuff, they've had a low post count, please make sure yo uare certain that you will submit a track.

Well I'd certainly hope you weren't the only judge, that wouldn't be fair both for you and us. Not only would it only provide a single view point on the songs, you'd be the only person people could whine to about the scores lol

Can I make a song called corruption or government? It is not offensive, just with a strong meaning, does not contain any words.

Well here i go! My submission!

This is a very ambient Dnb song. Call it Intellengent or liquid.

This song represents our freedom from slavery.
Where one of the first countries to free ourselfs.
We where taken away from Africa and where brought to Haiti to work. Also in this song i represent our beutifull nature and trees. Where also known for our black magic hence the very atmospheric sounds.

NOTE:
Not all Haitians use black magic those who do claim are hoax! (Plus even i dont believe in it!)

Please don't be taken, I just finally got my bagpipes up and working in perfect condition.
It is time for the dawn of...
SCOTTISH METAL!!!!

Response to Represent A Country 3 [Contest] 2009-11-16 19:26:29


After a few minutes of deep thought, I decided I would do a 2-3 parter involving the liberation of scotland in the 1200's. Doesn't matter if I can submit them all or not, it would just be an extremely fun project to do.
So...

Song: FREEDOM!!!!

Genre: Metal
Hell yeah!

Wahey, you're accepted too!

Could we have done this in the previous contests? That would have been very useful.

It was never really brought up in the previous contests and I can't really say whether (at the time) I would have said yes or not.
This service is here for the third contest, however, and I hope it becomes useful to many artists.

I'm tired, and should have been to bed hours ago, but i think i've finally finished my entry. I would love to have someone look at it, but at this point I don't think much can be added without ruining what I've got on it since every time i've updated it i've had to pretty much start from scratch... Goddamn Fl Studio 9 demo... Lol

Here it is:

The only real thing that i can think of needing help on now is figuring out the genre, cause I'm guessing it probably covers quite a few things. =3
