Win £1,000 (worth of royalty-free samples) plus a contract - Entries are now closed

[thecontrolcentre]

as far as i can see, the person most likely to win is also the person least likely to need the samples and loops.

But the same person is most likely to want a contract with S2S

That would depend what the contract is actually offering. Do you have the details?

[thecontrolcentre]

No?

[Desdicado]

I don't know the details for this particular one,but it's ussually a good deal,believe me

As a contracted sample producer for Sounds/To/Sample I think this is a great opportunity for someone to get into the sound design business. The guys at sounds/to/sample and sample magic are very well respected in the industry and are great to deal with.

They don't hand out contracts to sell your libraries on their site easily.

For the sake of creating 10 kick ass loops and winning a contract and a grands worth of libraries from the site, what do you have to loose

BTW even though I sell my haunted house records libraries through them I am not affiliated with the competition, I am just speaking from the view of someone who works with them regularly. I only found about the comp yesterday from their newsletter

This is true ....and what makes the comp tempting

So what is the usual deal? I'm genuinely interested in this. It seems odd to offer a contract as a competition prize without offering any details about the contract.

[penguinfromdeep]

Who's in the competition?!

[marvotron]

id like to know more details about the contract please. also what are the re-sale conditions on the sample cds?

id like the contract but if i was the winner i would just sell the cds.

[Desdicado]

You'll get a very good percentage of the sales,with exclusivity on S2S for a period of time.

Are there any sample libraries that let you resell? I don't know of any (although it's not something I make a habit of checking). But I know quite a few where it's forbidden in the contract - as it's the licence to use that you buy not the samples themselves.

[Desdicado]

I think you can resell after a period of time

I just checked out your label at S2S ,Steve,amazing,amazing soundscapes,do you use only circuit bending,radios and effects?

[steve haunts]

Thanks for the comments. For the electronic critters libraries I tend to use raw electronic sounds or field recordings and then use that as the source for further mangling/manipulations.

My whole theme is taking one sound source and turning it into something else.

[Desdicado]

that sounds really interesting,always wanted to do some field recordings myself

closing date is 29 September,midday,so better get to work
