Rainbow & Rooted: Four's Fall Down

[itroitnyah]

No, you go up to the top of the page where it says "Events", and find the "Bronyquest Fundraiser: RAINBOW & ROOTED" event, scroll down to the bottom, join the event and submit.

So much DnB being made from participants.... not enough Breakbeat. Where's Makkon when you need him?

[SoundwaveScootaloo]

i thought maybe speed + style = liquidDnB

Inorite? Kind of figures, though. It is fast and can be stylish. I was gonna submit a DnB track too, and then I hit a rut that I won't overcome in time for the deadline, so instrumental and latin jazz it is.

While DnB is one genre that is fast and stylish like the mascot calls for, there are a bunch of genres that are widely being ignored by all these DnB people that would also suit the album perfectly. Notable genres would include, epic trance, electro house, breakbeat, industrial electronic rock, or heavy metal. Stuff like "Trash Glamour Rock Chick" by Blue Stahli, for example, seems to be incredibly absent from the MLR community. And that song ain't DnB. Either most of the participants in R&R simply don't know any other existing or fast genre other than DnB, or they don't mind doing what everyone else is doing and being unoriginal. I kinda had high expectations for this album because I thought it was going to be pretty diverse in terms of musical genres, but instead, it seems like we're going to get a huge compilation of DnB instead. Not to say DnB is bad - I quite like DnB - it's just that it's not the only music genre out there, you know?

Musicians would rather go with the crowd and what they think is cool than be original and unique. It's like they are ignoring what being a musician is all about, and that's pretty lame to me. But hey, I'm still totally looking forward to "Arrivederci II." Orchestral DnB is pretty much insanely wonderful.

If all goes well, I'll be doing electro house, so at least not everyone is doing dnb :3

[FLAOFEI]

My trackis far from dnb, and it has breakbeats, with pitchshifted snares and all, caus thats fun.

[Stakeout Punch]

My track is kinda almost possibly maybe? 'lectro swing. Toward the end?)

Mixing still needs work, along with some random structure stuff:

[v.lossity]

House as well. Whether it'll make it on the album or not.....I don't know

[ExoBassTix]

Do collabs need to be submitted by all contributors? Do they all at least need to have pressed the PARTICIPATE button? As my collab partner has lost faith in the fandom and doesn't wanna join MLR (I know, I know, I tried persuading him, no use; he got some sad info from a family member who worked at Hasbro).

[itroitnyah]

No, just the person who is the creator of the song, not the ft. person.

[ExoBassTix]

We created the song together ._.

[Mr. Bigglesworth]

Yeah, I don't wanna do this anymore.

Next time (probably...maybe....)

[itroitnyah]

We created the song together ._.

I know, but by "creator of the song", I mean the person who will be posting it to their youtube channel and soundcloud or whatever. That's why collabs annoy me, lol. It feels like if you put it up on your channel, you're insulting your partner by claiming the credit for the song. Afterall, how many times have you found a collab song that you liked and subed to the collab partner instead of the channel of the person who submitted the song to it? And then if you put the song on one person's youtube and the download on the other person's soundcloud, that's a bit confusing for some people.

[Camsy]

Sorry to hear so many people dropping out. As for co-writing submissions, only one person should submit the song. And therefore only one person needs to press the participate button.

[ExoBassTix]

Okay, thanks.
Still, one question remains.

So I'm assuming that what I've heard is true and, if we happen to end up on the album, Circuitfry will contact us about going to Bronycon and whatnot. But what about my friend? Just add loose email-address? Or will this be done in a different fancy way?

[PHacksaw]

Would I still be able to do a song for this? I'd be doing something I can guarantee no one would be doing for this compilation. Electro-industrial/aggrotech.

Should be allowed... Deadline isn't reached yet, a bit more than 20 days left I think.
Although no guarantee Electro-industrial/aggrotech would be allowed. But if it's "fast and stylish"... maby

[ExoBassTix]

Nice, Aggrotech! Yea, do make sure that it's quite fast. But you should be fine mainly.
As long as the deadline hasn't passed one can make a song for this.

I'm hopefully submitting an orchestral track and a bossa nova :>

[PHacksaw]

Alright then. Aggrotech is easily fast and stylish. I'll do my best! It'll be one of the few pony songs I do under my main alias.

[AJ_]

I hope i can still submit some EDM, im going to make it about Rainbow dash when she was a filly... FIllyDash

[DatWhackProducer]

HEY GUISE! IT'S NOT DNB! OR EDM!

We are life's winners.
(Mine's less a teaser and more a hopelessly rag-tag WIP, lacking a harmony line as yet. The finished version will make up for it. Hopefully)

Also DatWhackProducer I really like it The violin part is lovely, especially.

[Jokeblue]

Nobody minds if I try jump in on this now, do they? I'm working on a Metal-ish kind of song atm for it, wasn't entirely sure how to sign up till now.

Lyrically for my song im kind of conflicted, It was originally intended to be about RD failing to stay true to the virtue of Loyalty after some event for example lets say joining the shadowbolts, discords tricks, or some darkish future situation like fallout equestria. But now it's starting to seem more like Sonic Rainboom with Rarity falling to her death just outside of everyones reach till good ol RD saves the day. Wat do?
