In addition...

4 - Submitted by May 27

5 - Your entry(s) must be composed specifically for this contest (or, if a cover, arranged/recorded specifically for this contest).

6 - Your entry(s) must be created with audio plugins or software studio.

7 - Your entry should have the FILE named in a format of "yearmonth_artistname_tracktitle" (eg "1909_MonDieu_OxygeneXVII.mp3"), where the artist name is the same as your KVR name. Please do not use spaces and special characters in the filename. Special considerations will be given to those that have the hosting agent change the file name.

8 - If you are going to tag your mp3--and you should--the artist name is to be the same as your KVR name, and the title tag is to be the name of your tune.

9 - One person can participate either with one entry, with one entry and one collaborative effort or with two collaborative efforts.

10 - Every submission has to be tagged with:
a) used instruments (virtual and 'real')
b) players' and singers' names (if other than entrant; collabs are allowed, sometimes encouraged, but they must be credited)
c) origin of loops and samples, if they're not free of copyright (this includes CreativeCommons material; please read and follow the license of the samples and loops you use); naming the origin of copyright free loops is also encouraged, but not mandatory. Please only use samples you are legally entitled to use.
d) name(s) of composer(s) -- if an entry is a cover this should be noted in the file name and/or the mp3 "Title" tag as well as the submission post (not everyone reads the submission posts).


11 - If there are strong doubts about the origin of the composition or parts of it, the participant should have the possibility to send a project file to the moderator, who could give it to a trustworthy person with the right host to examine it. Important: the participant should not be forced to do it.

12 - Resubmission of your track is allowed in the same post, so long you do it before the voting begins.


13 - Any tracks not adhering to these guidelines will be very naughty indeed. Possibly disqualified upon peer review. And at least mocked for all to point and giggle.

14 - Voting (members must have at least 20 posts to vote ... although contest entrants are exempt from this ruling) will run from the submission deadline. Anyone voting for themselves will find ALL their votes disqualified; any entrants not voting will also be disqualified.

If you have questions, send a private message to hellfog.

The free for all came at a good time.

I had a three voice vocal canon in works. When I listened the first draft of it however, the necessity of a chance in plan became quite evident, I'm no VOCES8, melodyne or not.

Worst case covid19, canon plus bass and drums, 7/8 meter, s'il vouz plait.

How timely... I was just finishing up my short tribute to Lord British... Seems like ages since I last posted a track for the KVR monthly contest.

Anyone old enough to remember this gem?

Dr. Apostrophe X - "Cold Lazarus"

So this one might require an explanation...

I've just started doing a podcast about the TV series "Stargate SG-1", which originally aired in the late 1990s. As Easter eggs for the podcast, I'm recording a series of songs by fictional 1990s bands, about the episode we're discussing that particular week. This is a They Might Be Giants-inspired song I did last Sunday about the episode "Cold Lazarus," from season 1 ("Maybe They're Tok'ra" is the name of the fictional '90s band).

I did all the music production on the Akai MPC Live II. The guitar, piano, bass, sax and synth instruments are all made from single samples -- no multisamples or velocity layers here! (the piano and synth are actually Casio SK-1 samples). All of the effects are on-board to the MPC as well, except for some bus reverb (Valhalla Room), delay (ReaDelay) and then HorNet Total EQ, Neutron, IK Bus Comp, bx_digital and bx_XL to tie it all together. Oh, and Melodyne. because I didn't have time to re-record vocals once I'd actually worked out the melody.

Lyrics can be found on the YouTube.
