It's okay, mine had like three before I advertised it all over Facebook. And, if you upload it to Soundcloud and add it to the Balloon Party group tracks, you'll get a lot of views.

But again, Balloon Party isn't for the views. First off, remember that if it makes it on the album, a LOT of people will see it. Second, you shouldn't really be doing this for the views. You should be on this album because you love helping out the community and making music. (Although I will admit that it would be nice to get a name known… XD )

Nonono not that! I don't care about views. My song was posted on some random news website with text beneath it referencing Zuckerburg. I have no idea what that's about. It seems they fixed the video link to the correct video, but sadly, I got only about six views from the whole deal.
I have a clearer pic here.

[Ricky Denzel]

Holy shit

[Fluttersam]

Here's my preview! Many many thanks to Metal Core Pony, who recorded the awesome screams!


A few questions about entering:
What format should the entry be? FLAC/WAV? Or is MP3 okay? If so, what bitrate?

Also, where it says "YouTube link", is Soundcloud okay? Should I just submit my preview there?

Thanks in advance.

so yeah opinions?

so yeah opinions?

it seems like the most important part of your song is the continually looping drum sample, as it is the loudest part of the song. The drums are important, but not enough so that they need to be the loudest part of the song

[natsukashi]

I'll keep that in mind for the mixing phase. =w=
I'm personally very much of a drum freak so yeah I often do shit like that~

[CaptainFluffatun]

Finished composition. Onto mixing/mastering blah blah

[Piranhaplant]

Yeah, I know this is really late, but I'm publishing a teaser anyway.

[vladnuke]

Pretty much done with mine, just need to fix up velocities, need to look more closely at the mixdown.

[IndustrialBreeze]

Yeah, I know this is really late, but I'm publishing a teaser anyway.

It's like electronic pirate swag to my ears. =D
Very unique and flows well.

[MYCUTIEMARKISAGUN]

wow, no rap entries huh? not one?

damn that's fucked.

[Temporal Walker]

Submittedurdid. That was fun. Also my first real attempt at writing metal for the brony music scene. It took me an uncomfortably long time to finish even though I've been writing metal for about seven years now, but alas she is done and submitted.
Can't wait for the 4th!

[Metabrony]

here is my teaser! is it hard enough! I TRIED TO MAKE IT AS HARD AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!

[the4thImpulse]

Well I'm droping out of balloon party

I have had a few track ideas over the past few months but none of them were shaping into anything good or 'hard', and most of them had nothing to do with ponies (which obviously defines balloon party). I also didn't want to force a track to be hard as that track would only suffer in doing so.

I look foward to hearing what you all make!

[K3WRO]

Well, at least you tried

[TheDnBGremlin]

Well I'm slightly depressed. I had to travel to the Keys yesterday and now I'm staying here for a week. The night before we left I touched up my mix, made the video, uploaded to 4shared, and saved everything and submitted. I'm kinda peeved that I wasn't able to make my song better. But I do think I did a good job nonetheless, I would have loved to do a few more things.

[IndustrialBreeze]

Anyone able to give me a few tips about what I could do to finalize this in the last few days? I'm quite new to this and not too good so any constructive criticism would be appreciated =)

I like it. Sounds like a boss battle theme, not as varied as some, but every bit as hard.

If anypony has equalization tips for my track, please let me know soon. I'll have to submit this in a couple days.
