WillRock Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Indaba Music and Heavy Metal Band The Darkness have started a contest to find the best original guitar solo to their song (which incidentally has one of the scariest music videos i've EVER SEEN ) I have laid down a melodic guitar solo for this contest and have aspirations to do well, and potentially win! To vote all you have to do is: 1: Check out my submission: Everybody Have A Good Time Solo! 2: Click Vote! Thats it! No sign up required or any of that jazz! For the record, I only need to crack the top 10. The ultimate winner is chosen out of all the submissions (by the darkness themselves!) but there are 5 honourable mentions out of the the top 10 voted solos. I would be greatly appreciative to anyone who chooses to vote for my submission, and if you've enjoyed my music over the years here at OCR, I hope you'll consider it! Thanks for all your help guys, lets make this happen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaMonz Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Slick stuff! You got mah vote! Edit: first place is so... not musical o.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Voted! Although I had to vote for that Matias guy too because his fits pretty much perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillRock Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Edit: first place is so... not musical o.o All down to taste bro. There is a criteria to hit with this compo for the judges after the voting takes place tho, you get marked out of 25 each for musicality, originality, creativity etc... I tried to hit all those points while trying to make something that fit with the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eino Keskitalo Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Very apt solo for The Darkness! There was a note at 0:21 that seemed to not fit in though. --Eino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
