Ok. First of all I'd like to see who's interested in this, so I'm going to post two different ideas initially and you people can tell me what you want to do. When we have decided, I will post the exact rules for the contest.

So this contest can be either to

write music (soundtrack) for a porn film

or to

write a scary weird lullaby for a child monster, which is also a bit crazy

You choose, post your preferences (which of the two), and on Sunday, or sooner if I see that everyone wants the same thing, I'll let you know of all the details. Unless this is all wrong, in which case I'll have a moderator on my back and I will have to change this post.

In the meantime, let me know which do you think is better/more fun...

Cheers for now,

Nikolas

EDIT: The contest end on the end of Sunday.

the scary weird lullaby for a child monster, wich is also crazy.

Please don't do the porn thing, because that sucks and is an inmature topic i.m.h.o.

esper

I might be tempted to agree. However, there's a difference between immature and challenging.

EXAMPLES:

immature: Okay guys <snicker snicker> let's do a Sprite Jam with porn stars. The more nudity the better, and the bigger the boobs, the better your chances of winning.

challenging: porn music. Have you ever heard what is considered "porn music?" I recently heard some interesting new jams by a local group in my area called the Felonious Monks that were branded "porn music." It was actually really intriguing and sounded pretty cool, and was done tastefully.

However, I do like the monster lullaby.
This Space Left Blank Intentionally.

The porn soundtrack one has already been done, actually, with pretty decent results I may add. And to a lesser extent, the lullabye concept has also been touched upon, though unless you count Greg as a crazy child monster, not to quite the same specifications.

It's been long enough that either could be reprised, of course, and with the added 'crazy child monster' stipulation on the lullabye, it definitely adds a new dimension to the composition. I may or may not be down for participating in the competiton, depending on how much time I have this week, regardless of the theme.

'Course, with the porn music idea, I'd get to try and simulate a wakka-chikka.

Is this tasteful enough?
(It's actually something I started playing wiht a long time ago, but this inspired me to redo it and enter)

Haddas: It is lovely and I'm actually feeling pretty horny right now listening to your music, but we haven't decided yet on the theme of the contest. You should wait just a couple of days longer...

Thank you anyway....

I'm waiting a little more for the usuall suspects (Geoffkhan, Synthetique, Scorposer, Ishmael, etc... the names that come in mind right now), to see how the feel about it and I'll let you know of the details a little later.

Thanks everybody, and I love the "feedback" I'm getting on this case. It seems that it was a good thing to ask you what you believe...

Ishmael

I say lullaby, though I might not be able to make it, a lot of stuff to do...
I used to make games but then I took an IRC in the knee.

<Calin> Ishmael looks awesome all the time

I vote for Porno theme... Nothing better than a hot, sexy porno groove! :=
Dancing madly backwards on the sea of air...

Krysis

I wanna lullaby!  ;D
All porn sounds the same to me.

I think porn music sounds pretty interesting. You ever see The Simpsons episode Valentine's Day, where they accidentally give Maggie that sexy song? I'd like to hear what a real one would sound like. And no, "Give It Away" doesn't count, because that is rap krap.

*this is a porn protest, based on a religious convincing, so don't reply to me, if you want to start another war!

Nikolas

Ok. The theme, after a lot consideration is as follows:

Write a lullaby for a kid monster going to sleep

The deadline is next Sunday, just a little longer than a week, so that you have one and a hlaf weekend to work on it.

Any instrumentation, Any format (ogg, midi, mp3...)

The only restriction is that it must not be normal.

Do what you want but make it sound as weird as possible. And you are free to give your meaning to the word weird.
Some ideas are: mess with the sounds. Mess with the tonality. Mess with the rhythm. Mess with sound fx

Judgement will be bassed on the primarily on the music concept and not on the realisation (although it may count), cause I can understand that not all of you have the neccessary equipment...

Best of luck to everyone and I'm looking forward to hearing your weird lullabies!

Haddas

I think we should make songs about people dying.

I am not sure if my entry is valid, since you can hardly call this a lullaby... but it's wierd big time... ;D

Anyways, I would've done better with the porn theme, I guess.

HERE it is, tremble.

Minimi, easy on the spamming.
To make a porn-track does not mean that you support porn. Just like drawing a warrior-sprite doesn't mean you support violence, and playing a pirate-game, for that matter, doesn't mean you support crime.
Just my two cents, sorry for interrupting the thread.

PS:
Dkh, as much as I question your song's qualities in the lullaby-division, it's nevertheless quite cool to listen at :)

Nikolas

Thank you Andail...

Dkh: I like your work. I will allow it to enter. It is weird in every way. And, although not a lullaby, it could be night music for a monster baby when having a nightmare. So I'll take it as an entry. Cheers...

Well Monday, and we have until Sunday, but I sure hope to get more entries.

Thanks to both of you. It really wasn't meant to be an entry, but now since you say it's fine, I guess, it's fine, hehe.

Nikolas

Oh... Come one...

I'm having a bad dream every time I go to sleep: No one will take part...

come one, let me see some interest here

Paper Carnival

I have something that might be suitable for Monster Lullaby... I'm having trouble with its ending though, just gimme a few hours
