https://www.kvraudio.com/news/mercuriall-audio-and-paul-santo-announce-a-music-contest-47411

Der Contest hat bereits am 11.01. begonnen, die Deadline ist sportlich: am 26.01.2020, 11:59 PDT (Pacific Daytime).

Wie damals beim Adam Contest geht es darum, zu einem Foto (in diesem Falle eine imposante Wolke, lmao) ein maximal 40 sekündiges Stück Musik zu schreiben, Stil egal, solange aber eine Gitarre dabei ist. Näheres s.o. bzw. weitere Verlinkungen.

1. Preis: 1 Stunde mit Paul Santo und alle Mercuriall Produkte für umme (die, die nicht bereits für umme sind) plus das neue, upcoming Plugin von Mercuriall.

Viel Spass.

@pitto ? @mazze ? Interesse?




I am pleased to help Mercuriall Audio Software announce an innovative new contest that rewards winners with not only their AMAZING amplifier plug-ins but an hour of time with me. I was one of the first Mercuriall artists, with Steve Stevens (Billy Idol). They have a varied selection of emulators, which I use regularly (the Steven Tyler documentary, Nilsson record etc) and a Marshall plug-in, Spark, that rivals my vintage Marshalls. See text of contest & links below! PLEASE SHARE & thank you for letting me tag you.

Danke für den Hinweis! Bei Mercuriall habe ich schon mal in einem Contest gewonnen. Damals ging es aber darum, ein Demovideo von einer von deren Ampsims zu machen. Das lag mir irgendwie mehr als so eine Fotovertonung für ein paar Sekunden (denn 40 Sekunden sind echt mal schnell vorbei...).

Naja, mal gucken, vielleicht fällt mir ja doch was dazu ein. Wobei schon das Foto so gar nicht den Kinderliedern entspricht, die ich sonst gern mache, und auch irgendwie schon einen bestimmten Stil nahelegt. Ob wohl das Riff von "Thunderstruck" gilt?

rückwärts gespielt finden die es ganz sicher sehr gut

Problem gelöst. Dazu die Vocals von "Banana Boat Song" mit so vielen "Day-O"s, wie man in 40 Sekunden reinkriegt, schon ist es sogar innovativ.

Klingt interessant, zumal ich erst vor paar Tagen ein Video mit meinem neuesten Soundtrack "Vox Vestalis" ins Voting gestellt habe, wo viele Wolken zu sehen sind. Vielleicht remixe ich mich selbst grins.

Das Bild gefällt mir. Da mach ich auch mit.
