Gulliver Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Hey, just a thought... What if we'd make TWO compilation albums instead of just a one?!? You ask how? ...Separate them by the TWO general "directions". One would be a kind of "electronically" oriented (could be even strictly instrumental) compilation (in which I'm eager to participate!). Another one would be, let's say, pop-rock (read: song oriented) CD which could be stylistically more wide and would be a good choice for those who'd prefer to bring in their songs with vocals and with a fair amount of acoustic, natural instruments. We are dealing with original compositions this time, right? So, having products which are a bit more integral would give us an opportunity to sell more copies (having fun of earning maybe a buck or two for each participant at the same time! ). What I mean is - let's go for the (TWO!) commercially valuable products. Wait a minute... we can do THREE of them!!! And the third could be an outlet for dance music producers. I am back.

Dave Bryce Posted June 5, 2002 Author Share Posted June 5, 2002 Vlad - That'd be a lot of work; and, it'd probably be tough to get equal amounts of each genre for different discs. Some stuff also might be hard to classify... Besides, believe it or not, they're a pretty decent amount of work just as they are now... Great idea, though... We've actually talked about getting specific with one of the next discs that we do - I remember suggesting maybe an unplugged sort of thing. I don't see any reason why we couldn't get genre-specific in the future, but I think it'd have to be done one disc at a time. dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Z. Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 If you folks aren't tired of my contributions yet and if there aren't any new contributors I would displace, I would be happy to add a song to the compilation. I've enjoyed being a part of the previous ones! Still reeling from the news of Rob's departure, though.... lz www.lauriez.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intheether Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Hey, just a thought... What if we'd make TWO compilation albums instead of just a one?!? You ask how? ...Separate them by the TWO general "directions" As cool an idea as that sounds - that's a tall order for Dave to fill. I suppose if there are enough decent submissions, he will do like the first comp. vol 1&2. Judging by the cover cd, Dave has a good ear for song order arrangement. It can be interesting to juxstapose an electronic ditty with a rock and roll tune. Technically, we can commercially release the cd - cdbaby will sell them even without a barcode. But, that'll drive up our costs and the time of all involved with product production. FWIW I'd hope that there's at least one keyboard track in each submission. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve LeBlanc Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Originally posted by Dave Bryce: Originally posted by Krakit: Must I commit right now?Nope. Only three musts that I can think of: 1) Must be original music 2) Must be under 4:30 3) Must have a full rez (16 bit 44.1kHz) copy (CD, DAT, .AIFF or .WAV file) to me by 9/30/02 Now, you may be asking yourself - MUST it be keyboard stuff? I don't think so. I'm thinking that hese compilations are about the people who participate in theis forum; so - if someone like, say, Lee Flier wanted to submit a piece of music by her band that had no keyboards at all (Geez, Lee, send me the tracks - I'd be glad to drop some Nicky Hopkins-esque piano on it for ya! ), that'd be okay with me. Those guidelines sound about right to y'all? dBWell...not a big deal either way but if I have a vote ...I think contributions should have a keyboard on it somewhere to be part of the Keyboard Corner Comp...if only on the bridge http://www.youtube.com/notesleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tusker Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 It would be nice to have (... to distinguish this album from the other two we have done) a theme or concept. Here's a few different strategies we could use..... - A christmas album? (or other subject) - A genre album (centered around a paricular genre) - A "heroes" album? (music inspired by your musical heroes) - An "instrument" album? (like a piano album or an unplugged) - a "collaborations" album (where we team up with others) etc......... I realize that any time we focus... we raise the bar, and reduce the number of interested participants. Just wondering how to imbue this album with 'a distinguishing feature' without making it a difficult process. Or perhaps 'a distinguishing feature' is not as important as I am making it out to be?

Mark Zeger Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Originally posted by Tusker: - a "collaborations" album (where we team up with others) Actually, Jerry, I thought about proposing this myself. It would certain open up the project to more participants if there is more interest than disc space. I'd welcome collaborating on a piece with someone.

Steve LeBlanc Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 A christmas album?Anything but that...please. I prefer leaving it wide open...it certainly wouldn't keep anyone from collaborating if they choose. http://www.youtube.com/notesleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take on it is that the more diverse it is, the cooler and more interesting it is. For me, that approach mirrors what we have here - a community of people with varied backgrounds and diverse tastes.

Intheether Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 dB: I notice you mastered the Volume 3 Covers cd. Would you prefer if we leave off any home mastering techniques so that you can achieve a balanced mix faster? Someone at a mastering house said its easier to master unmastered material than to undo what one has already done. Maybe we can mail both versions and you can decide? Just a thought...I suppose I am getting ahead of myself anyway. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llarion Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 I'm all over this, because I JUST finished a brand new piece, and it's short enough!! Plus, it is technically a collab, as John Kelly from Artistlaunch is taking a guitar solo... Dewpoint You like? Cheers!

marino Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 Seen this thread very late (as usual). Of course I want to be in. I have lots of material. I would be oriented toward doing a piano solo, or a string quartet, or a jazz combo performance... anything that's "played". Don't get me wrong, I'm into sequencers and clicks night and day - it's just that my tastes are more and more inclined to live playing and live interaction among musicians. BTW I still like the rock opera thing, and what's happened to the Beatles covers?! Also, someone suggested to do an entire album of several versions of ONE song... I must admit I find it appealing!

Steve LeBlanc Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Ah I see how it is...you guys are just pulling old tunes out of the closet. cheating?

Well, I enjoyed composing a special tune the first time around, too. Fact is, I was thinking of a jazz tune I wrote recently, which I think would be perfect for this project in a piano solo or piano trio version. It would really represent the present state of my writing/playing - whatever that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bryce Posted June 8, 2002 Author Share Posted June 8, 2002 Plenty of room. Remember, the first originals compilation spanned two CDs - there's no reason that this one can't end up being Volumes 4 & 5. That would mean we've got room for 30-35 selections. dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
