Nase Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Really? How come it's not on the ORC131 compo page? cause apparently the filesize limit isn't 8 but 6 mb and i couldn't be arsed to reencode it yet. i'll get around to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Nin Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 cause apparently the filesize limit isn't 8 but 6 mb and i couldn't be arsed to reencode it yet. i'll get around to it. I didn't realize they had a limit. Is that new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analoq Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 It's always said "6 Megs Max" on the upload form though the actual limit is a bit higher than that. Nase could try uploading his entry as-is; the system may accept it. cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Nin Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Six hours left. There's still time to get a few more entries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gario Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Sorry, I tried working on something for a little bit last night & this morning, but I couldn't get anything off the ground. I was working a shitload on other music and got burnt out. I can't get anything done today because I have plans for the entire day that can't be moved for this (believe me, I would if I could). Really, though - there's still a few hours left so someone can take advantage of this time and make something! Love your track, by the way, Nase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Nin Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 So, I guess Nase won, huh? Shouldn't Doulifée be informing him to send in a source tune by now? I mean, voting ended almost a week ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

analoq Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Tragically I neglected to vote; crunch-time with work is harsh. But I'll make some comments a bit late anyway, if nobody minds: sci: The pitch-bend in the intro is a great way to start, it grabs my attention immediately. Nice minimal atmosphere, not too busy, not too sparse, just a simple laid-back interpretation. Too bad it's so short I'm sure it would've been interesting to see how it developed. AkogareZephyr: You know, pitch correction technology has been a staple of recording studios since the 1980s with Eventide hardware to the 90s with automated software like AutoTune/Melodyne and after hearing these silicon-injected female vocals for near 30 years it is always refreshing to hear a natural, sincere voice - especially one with a gentle, airy and dream-like tone such as this caressing my ears. Unexpected, but a pleasant surprise. Nase: One inventive variation after another, a seemingly limitless supply of ideas resistant to the typical ABACBA/etc pop forms; the potpourri of styles preferring seriality, bound together cohesively by apt transmogrifications of melody. Whether intentional or not, the 'lullaby' concept takes on surprising depth when Dylan Thomas is invoked; as an atheist, biblical quotes about life and death are met with derision but poetry, especially beautiful poetry, cuts right through me without effort. This is the second time Nase has remixed one of my originals, and I am grateful for it. Hopefully I've given an idea of how much I appreciate the entries, thank you all for participating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nase Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 haven't gotten such a sweet review in a while. thanks man. the poem by dylan thomas was the first thing i found through a random youtube search. one of those happy accidents, heh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sci Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Too bad it's so short I'm sure it would've been interesting to see how it developed. Yeah, about that: progress on the song was going slow and the deadline was approaching quickly. And so... Anyway, I always like feedback on my music, even if it's belated.
