Tune Contest - Feb. 6 to 13th

[Gregjazz]

That last contest was fun with the theme song stuff, so I thought this contest could be similar. This week's rules:

- Make an original theme song for any character; one that already exists, or one that you create.

Other than that there are no restrictions.

Also, I will be giving out prizes to the top three entries -- one prize of your choice:

- War drums (Celtic Bodhran drum, and a Kodo drum)
- Slap Bass (with wah-wah effect)
- Harpsichord

These sounds are very good, and cannot be found anywhere else. They are available in Soundfont, Gigasampler, Fast Tracker 2 (XI), and MP3 format. I can also do a few other formats, too.

Have fun!

EDIT: You also need to post an image of the character your theme song is about. That will help me judge it when the contest is over.

[Peter Thomas]

oooooohhh!!  

These ideas keep getting better.....

*runs away to think of character*

[Pet Terry]

Ooh, a prize, that makes me want to enter! I'll try to came up with something

[Damien]

Here's the character (warning, image size 860kb):

Look at him go!
If character seems to move a bit slow, it's because of the browser, try to open the gif with some external viewing program.


Here's the theme for the character
BadGuy.mid (1:20)

Oh yeah. 8)

[Gregjazz]

Looks like Damien has other talents besides music! My, that's a pretty evil-sounding theme song. That drummer is quite skilled to be keep up those 32nd-note kicks.

[Sluggo]

EDIT: never mind. I had to save it to get it to work though.
I can't get the download to work. It keeps saying 'cannot find server'.

[Gregjazz]

And who's that supposed to be, MillsJROSS? "Angry Couch Potato Man"! The music is very fitting.

Oh, and remember, you can always use a character that already exists.

[MrColossal]

why that's none other than Ace Quest Adventunaire!

[Trapezoid]

Can it be a real person?
I hope so. You don't know her anyway.


"Chloe"

[Gregjazz]

Right, Trapezoid, any character you want.

Nice 7/4 time! I also really like that guitar! It has a nice snappy, clear sound to it. 8)

Here's my entry:

I believe this painting is titled: 'Conversation with a Spanish Woman'.

Here's my character:

So thanks

I shall be gone for at least twelve hours for now, but after that I might hurriedly write something. But I probably won't. Aww.

[Gregjazz]

Hmm.. Well, there are enough entries, so I guess I'll judge it tomorrow. (Friday the 13th, uh oh, be prepared!)

[Peter Thomas]

argh!! hold on geoff!!

gimme 2 seconds.....

oh crap...... now I have to write a song in 15 minutes.....

*sigh* I guess it's possible........

[Peter T Unplugged]

Oh alright.... forget my last post geoff..... go ahead and judge.....

I am completely void of inspiration...

And I was looking FORWARD to this one too.....

[Gregjazz]

Well, I'll judge them tonight unless you really want to enter the contest that badly. I'm willing to wait a bit if you think you can get an entry done. It's no problem.

EDIT: Also, considering it's Friday the 13th today, you might want me to stall the judging until later, anyways. It's up to you guys.

[Peter Thomas]

heh! I didn't even realise yesterday was black friday! I was too busy thinking about today!! yay!! loverrly Valentines day!!

But I maintain my last post. Forget about my entry..... it won't happen *sigh*.
