Description
Are you a fan of videogame music? Perhaps specifically a big fan of RPG music? Then I suggest reading on!
This event is mainly aimed at the composers of RMN (at least to participate in the event as competitors) but even if you don't compose music yourself, you are welcomed and encouraged to participate by listening to the submissions and voting for a winner!
Now, if you're a composer yourself: have you tried your hand at composing music for RPGs before? Yes? Great! Participate and test your skills against the other composers of RMN in this friendly competition. Even if you don't have much experience composing music for RPGs you're more than welcome to, and encouraged to join in and in the process get some practice under your belt! (none of us is perfect, anyway.)
- The event is divided into 3 phases, each of which require a separate submission per participant.
- Each phase = one musical piece. Each phase has its own set of rules with regard to instrumentation and theme. The theme is announced by a neutral party at the beginning of each phase.
- Contestants will send the submissions to an appointed neutral RMN member in a PM and after the phase in question is over, the submissions will be posted anonymously, so that people can listen to them and vote for what they think sounds the best and fits best the given description and theme of the phase. (Please send your submissions privately via PM to kentona)
- Votes will be counted and published at end of each phase. The person to receive the most votes from all three phases wins.
- Each phase lasts approximately 2 weeks, so that even the busiest people will have a chance of finishing their pieces in time (hopefully.)
Phase 1: Simple
Simple is beautiful. You're required to create a piece matching the description of the theme using no more than 3 instruments (also means 3 layers/tracks). How well can you bring your instruments to life?
Starts 12/25/2011 06:00 PM
Ends 01/09/2012 05:59 PM
Phase 2: Orchestral
Orchestral music isn't a necessity for an RPG but it is very common in the genre and it is a good skill to be able to compose a piece that can be played by an orchestra.
How well can you harmonize multiple voices of different instruments?
The piece you create for the theme of phase 2 doesn't have to follow the professional principles of orchestration, but it's supposed to revolve around orchestral elements and utilize strings, brass and woodwind sections. Not necessarily all of them (though, variety in orchestration is encouraged), but it needs to have orchestral sections, instead of single instruments playing all the tracks.
There can be additional instruments, though modern orchestras already cover a lot of instruments these days. The focus of the theme should still be in orchestration, however.
Starts 01/11/2011 14:00 PM
Ends 01/25/2012 05:59 PM
Phase 3: Inspired
All of us have our own strengths and sometimes when moving out of the comfort zone we don't get to use them as well as we'd like.
In this phase you're free to use any kind of instrumentation and sources of sounds you wish.
If you felt you didn't get to do your own thing in the earlier phases, this is where you can go all-out, any way you please. Though the piece will still need to match the theme of the phase.
Starts 01/30/2011 16:00 PM
Ends 02/13/2012 05:59 PM
- Each piece needs to loop and the song has to last at least 1 minute before the loop point. Phase 2 and 3 pieces may need to last longer than 1 minute before the loop point. (If you're doing a rondo the loop point is naturally when you're repeating the entire cycle of sections)
- You have to demonstrate the loop point by including it in the song by inserting one or two sections that would follow it. If you have a separate intro in your song, your loop point could return the listener to the section following the intro, for example.
- It would be nice if you kept your track private until the voting is done so we'd get a fair competition.
- Audio formats accepted:
.wav
.mp3
.mid
I'd even say .flac and .ogg, but people need to be able to access your piece, so it would be best to go with the three mentioned above.
I hope I'm not asking too much from people with 3 songs. If you think 2 weeks per piece isn't enough time, let me know so we can arrange something else. The reason I thought 3 phases would be the best idea to go with is because people here have varying strengths, so with this it should stay fair and challenging to everyone.
I hope for lots of participants and followers! :)

I think hes trying to say whether we submit 1 song every 2 weeks, or we submit 3 songs together at the end of 6 weeks. From what I know its the first one.
Sorry for that lack of structure questión, but yes, I mean what ricky said

I would say you have to submit 1 song every 2 weeks. Otherwise you would have 6 weeks to work on your piece for phase 1.
Also, since it's been decided that submissions go to Kentona maybe update the event description to show that?

I didn't expect this theme, but it's a good one. I've already started working on my entry... a question though.
If, for example, one of us can't or won't finish up an entry for this first phase in time, is he still allowed to submit his/her entries into phases 2 and 3? In case of a yes, does it technically mean that just one submission for any of the three phases is enough to count as 'participation' in this contest?

author=synbiI don't mind if people submit entry to just one or two phases, but to be able to win the event you have to participate in every phase.

I have a good sense of music, but not composition... So, I'll definitely try to vote on them as long as my ears aren't bleeding from some of them.
This sounds interesting. I'll give it a go...even though I haven't used FL Studio in like 8 years. XD
Excuse me.
But the rules said that we have only 3 instruments.
When I open gurugu_Volcano, there are 15 different channels
Is that alright? :(

That is a track from Final Fantasy IX. I have no idea why it has been posted here, or why it has been approved in first place...
It won't be a valid entry, anyway.
ps. And you're supposed to PM your entries to kentona.
@Happy: I read the rules and it doesn't say anything about PMing the entries to kentona. So whoever didn't update the rules, is to blame, even if (s)he's an admin or an important person on RMN. And I swear to god I had 3 channels....must of f***ed it up during conversion..
... u.u' sorry for keep bothering, but i have doubt with this
author=Rulesmaybe the reason of why spadesofdarknes is the final fantasy song with more than 3 channels its due to that rule, and just keep save the real song until voting time
It would be nice if you kept your track private until the voting is done so we'd get a fair competition.

It doesn't say anything about composing a remix of an already existing BGM. The rules only say it has to be original. And it's original because it doesn't use instruments from the actual game.

Actually, Happy made a post, in page 4 of this thread, which reads:
Past compositions & remixes aren't allowed. This is a competition for original compositions.
Like many people already said, these rules need to be added to the original post.

So if I take a picture you've drawn and change the colours in photoshop it's now my original drawing because it doesn't use the same palette.

This needs to be in the main post also, because I had to ask around in IRC to find out. Reading eight pages of replies shouldn't be a prerequisite to participate.

How would you know if I'm lying or not?
It doesn't matter whether you're lying or not. You can't submit another person's material as an entry. That'd be like tracing an image for a drawing contest.

No my arrangment was supposed to sound different. I had no idea that there was another MIDI that sounded like mine.
