MLR Presents [Idea]

[[voodoopony]]

Was brainstorming today.
I'm a user of the Twoism forums [fan forum for Boards of Canada] and they have this thing called "One on Twoism" where the members of the community compile an album of their best works and release it digitally and physically.

WHAT IF...
We did something similar, but instead set up a Bandcamp with tracks specially made by us. It'll be advertised in all participating channels, so if we get the community involved this can go pretty far.

Donations will be compiled onto a paypal. Over time, as each album comes out with heavy marketing from both our channels and EqD, we utilize the funds to throw a brony-music-con sort of thing. It'll cover the costs of the tickets to and fro for bronyartists to perform, the venue, and the rest can be volunteer work [planning, organizing, setting up, etc].

I think it's very possible, and I'm sure there are many bronies willing to contribute to see their favorite bronyartists perform live [or watch footage].

Thoughts?

[StormWolf]

Thoughts?

OMG FUCK YES
THAT WOULD BE SO COOOOOOL

[[voodoopony]]

To get this to work we need to contact all the notable artists, if we get enough to participate it's then a matter of time.

If you want to participate, just say so and I can edit you into the original post.

[TheShadowBolts]

We would like to help

[Versilaryan]

Yes, this is an amazing idea! I'd definitely love to help make this a reality!

[Howlgram]

DO IT!
That would be LEGENDARY! =D
im sorry that i cant help thou

[Overkillius]

What Vaf said!

"Yes, this is an amazing idea! I'd definitely love to help make this a reality!"

Couldn't have said it better.

[LunchBagMusic]

OH GOD YES.

Your brain needs to be preserved in jelly or something. We shall consult it forever more as the oracle.

Count me in.

I'll take that as a "no" to me

[[voodoopony]]

The idea is still in it's fetus stage. I wouldn't assume complete justification over what we'll do with everypony just yet, we're not picking purely based on popularity.

I'm guessing the first logical step would be to spread the word to fellow composers, and discuss about the album [Skype?]. I expect it to be as diverse as the forum, but to flow nicely throughout [and have it mastered well].

I'm not sure how we'd go about mixing and quality standards since I don't want to dismiss anyone in the community, but I'd like to go about producing in a professional manner. I don't want to demotivate the new and upcoming producers!

[Tarby]

So much yes for this. Not much else i can say, except that the amount of yes surpasses any instance in recent history that I can recall.

[EHT]

I'm totally in. This is such a great idea and I'm totally going to get some more music made. Count me in dude. :3

[Interrobang Pie]

This will be cool. Let's do it~

[Rainbowdutch]

this idea = best idea
and I would love to take part

[[voodoopony]]

Alrighty, if you want in say so specifically. So far we've got:
LunchBagMusic
Tarby
Voodoopony
AlexS
TheLivingTombstone
KeepOnRockin
Rainbowdutch
Zahqo

We're going to get a lot of entries but we want to narrow it down to around no more than 16 tracks or so that we feel fit the album most.

[Cyril]

I would love to take part in this.

Provided I got the notice to possibly remaster anything were I asked to be on one.

I tend to do this thing called "improving" with each track I release so if one of my earlier tracks is deemed appropriate, I may want to improve upon its production values (or even some performances)

[Facade]

this sounds epic i'm definitely taking part

[bartekko]

If you don't mind... I'll take part, but it actually HAS to happen, not like all the other great ideas up to date

[ArtAttack]

This is an excellent idea. Not too complicated, good end result. Count me in.

[JackleApp]

Kay.

Shadowbolt, you don't have anything made

Note all tracks produced are original [as in made for the album, not previously released].
When the album is put out, the song you produced will be uploaded to your Youtubes with explanations about the cause. Unfortunately, it's not a guarantee all songs will make it on the album.

[X-Trav]

I'm totally for this

[BlackElectric]

This sounds cool, I'd like to be in on it!

[Calamus_Dash]

I doubt I could make a song that would be good enough for the album, but I'm all for this idea and I'll help in any way I can
