Hey, wait, so is this two tracks per artist? I have a track I made for a halloween compilation (Not exclusively chip, not spec work at all) which I could throw at this.

I say up to two per artist. I accept fakebit and chip-sounding pieces as well as full on chipmusic

if history is anything to go by then i doubt more than 10 will submit anyway :v

I think I will have more than 10, I have been contacted 6-8 times, and I am verbally communicating maybe 2-3 tracks in. Plus my content

i think you should only chose the 10 best submissions and you should get as many people as possible to submit artwork and only chose one cover

that way your comp will be higher quality

10 is not enough, maybe 15? Between 10 and 15...

One piece of artwork, that's probly for the best. I just want it to have to do with Spec Work

definitely worth a shot after a finished compo is ready to be released.

I was thinking about doing that, and talking to them about spec art. Maybe do some kind of showcase with it?

Pxl-bot 1 year later comp. (Because I was in it)

The mark of a good compilation, the real deal maker for me, is track order. Make sure to put some time in it.
Good luck with this though. I imagine some funny takes on the tapes on chains for cover art.

I care about that too! I was planning on Strong Suit and I to work together on the order. Espically with the eclectic mix of tracks.

You should submit, just sayin' wink

I listen to (as in more than once) a few compilations.

The nanoloop compilation and the vocal compo are some of my favorites. The Mario Paint comp had some gems.

Which nanoloop comp?

There are lots of good chip compilations!
Chip=win, iPhone nanoloop posse, Chiptuned rockman, nanoloop2008, Italian 8-bit for Japan, chip for cancer... A truckload of golden compilations! There are more bad ones though

Spec Work. This I'd deeper than I intended it to be. I like it.

What about spec work artwork? Hmmmm?

I have two recommendations:

1. have a look at this: http://www.no-spec.com/about/

2. encourage artists to submit songs that were essentially done as spec work and never used... e.g. songs for games that were never finished, etc.

That would be cool if I did that! But I already have submissions. I have some of that stuff i might include.

If anyone has any, please submit!

if it's "spec work", should it include a piece or .txt file about what spec work is, why this album came into being, and why artists should be wary of it?  let's entertain AND educate!

Yes!!

You could submit... If you wanted to. It does not need to be exclusive material
