I think I'm in. I'll deliver an entry as long as I get to decide for an artist to mimic.

PPH

I might enter too, if I find time to compose.

I'd love to have you. Even though you'll probably win.  :lol:
I'll never make sword-chucks...
Update - 2013 I still havent made sword-chuks.
Update - 2021 What the hell are sword-chuks? :((

I thought about having a go at the Iron Maiden style, but I don't know if I dare. It requires a very very decent outcome. We'll see...

It's like you're always stuck in second place
When it hasn't been an OHC, OVC, Sabotage, or even April Fool's
But ... we'll be there for you

:D

crappy lyrics but i just couldn't resist. Something in his whining sounded like the theme from friends  :D

Ok, I have a question about the mimic part. Would it be OK to just pic one or 2 songs from someone and do the same style, or the same "flow" if you will? All the people I want to do make all kinds of music. It wouldn't be a remake of the song or anything like that, just the same flow of the song using the same style.

How does that sound?
Anyone can do anything if they have nothing else to do
-
Most musicians are talented. I'm just determined.

georg

That sounds remarkably close to the point of the compo  :)

A remake would not be ok, since the point is to recreate a certain style not a certain song. The problem i'm having is that my song sounds nothing like it's supposed to sound.  :(  You really need to copy the style.

OTOH i suppose the last place would be mine for sure.

I've given myself an nearly impossible task, yet I'm going to continue...

I've chosen to mimic Atlantis! :)
"Heh, maybe I should've joined the compo only because it would've meant I wouldn't have had to worry about a damn EQ or compressor for a change. " - Atlantis
"yes.. I think in this case it was wishful thinking: MPT is makng my life hard so it must be wrong" - Rewbs

apple-joe

Atlantis? Is it very irregular not to have heard about them?

PPH

Atlantis is one of our fellows. He used to write in this forums quite a lot. He has stopped making music to devote himself to mixing and mastering, which he thinks are activities for which he is better suited. He is Dutch, but he lives in New Zealand.

(Hey, I should start charging to write Artist descriptions).

By the way, it would be good if everyone said who they are mimicking, right?

At least it will be so much easier to judge. ;)
