So I heard this guys one song a while back and loved it, but shortly after he unlisted it and just kind of never became active again. Nothing came up for that alias in a google search, so I was just wondering if any of you had seen him resurface anywhere, or might be able to recognize his style under another alias.

Here is the one song; I managed to re-find it via google.

Yeah, we just started communicating via mass e-mail so as to not clog up 'recent posts' with the post any longer than it already had, because some people were getting a little frustrated.

It is, uh, still happening guys.

The deadline was set far in advance due to everyone involved having to take varying amounts of time; some a LOT longer than others. So yeah, we are still working on it.

The release date is planned for February 27th; the release of the first Poke'mon Game. So we still have a little longer.

By no means am I saying that y'alls collab doesn't sounds awesome though, I would be sad if it didn't come to fruition. Just wanted to clarify that our project is still alive and well.

This really isn't chip, like at all, but I just wanted to get some CC on the melodies themselves. The whole track is composed of 6 different Piano's.
Just wondering what you guys think of the quality of the melodies, and song structure.
Depending on if these melodies are quality I might change the instruments and everything to make it an actual song.

This also.

either way, before all that happens i start by imagining the emotional effect i want to achieve, and then just sit there for a couple of minutes and imagine ways to make it happen.  if i'm lucky, my mind can formulate the various elements to achieve the desired effect - not entire melodies mind you, but pieces of hooks and chunks of rhythmic features.  the harder part is to string it all together into something more cohesive.

I personally make the chord progression first if I don't already have an idea when I sit down to make the music. It allows me to know what 'boundaries' I have to fit within as far as what notes my melody should hit.

It's like a really lazy way of deciding my scale on the fly.

haha yeah I actually took ages finding the "reply to all" button, so I know exactly where you're coming from. First time I've ever group emailed.

I didn't even see that there XD I had just been copying and pasting all of the e-mail addresses from the original message.

You guys remind me of my grandparents trying to use the internet.

yeah, I emailed the whole group, there should be one reply from James Xander (me) where I try and outline stuff.

I also may have kinda only sent it to Ethen, rather than the entire group.

shit

Sent it to everyone now.

Exactly what happened to me. I have replied to everyone now.

Sorry everyone, I was trying to get everyone in one place by sending out a group e-mail, which you can't do with PMs as far as I know, so details could be discussed. Like who'd host the release, hen the songs need to be finished, etc. Sending the e-mail now. If you gave me your e-mail you will receive it.

Edit: And I have never organized a collaboration if that was blindingly obvious XD. I apologize if this is strange; I'm simply attempting to directly contact all the participating artists without bumping a post onto the front page when in reality it has become exclusive to a group of people participating in it.

So, sorry for the confusion.

This is THE last day to send a confirmation message with your e-mail to me. I still need 10 artist's e-mails.
You can see who you are on the first page.

We have 32 artists participating and 22 e-mails( Including me). If you fail to send me a PM with your e-mail by the 31th, then I will be forced to omit you from the final release as a fore mentioned. So shoot me a PM fast!

Can I grab Santa Claus is Coming to Town?
If someone else wants it though, by all means take it.

Edit: Strike that I won't be able to deliver.

Hah, my music is terrible for audio surf.
It would go from green to red blocks so fast.

I have a song that is pretty much red the entire time; save the slow bridge.
