"Lesser Knowns" (Official Event Thread)

[the4thImpulse]

Hey, are you guys still accepting members?

I'm still learning and this group seems amazingly helpful.


EDIT: I realize that this is already really far along, so no hard feeling if thats a no. Honestly I feel bad asking now that I've seen the cover art and stuff that already completed.

Hopefully something like this happens again, so I can be a part of it from the beginning.

From what I know we are capping this album at 20 people, which we have reached. Some of us do plan to make another one of these "Lesser Knowns" album later in the future with a new set of musicians.

Thanks, do you think you could fire me a message when the next one starts up?

When I know more I will try to remember to tell you (I may forget), there will be an event page here for the next one aswell so look out for that. Don't expect any news about it until after the summer.

OK, I guess I'll see if theres any other similar events going on. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Hey, I know we were talking about it earlier in the skype chat, but are we officially delaying the album?

[K3WRO]

I think it's because there is a new mwmber in the team

We need to give him some time at least

And anyway, If we are doing this again, Should it be called "Lesser Knowns vol.2"?

I think that's how it's gonna go, but it'll be with all-new artists. None from the first album can return for the second.

[Anorax]

...f**k

damnit! Guys, I know this is a ridiculously bad time to say this, but unless I get a sudden burst of inspiration soon, I will have to drop from the album.

This makes me feel like shit for having to say it now, but I fear I will have to drop from the album roster.

Sorry guys. If you need anything changed image-wise that I've provided so far (such as the bandcamp background), just tell me and I'll modify it when I get the chance.

@ 4th's album cover:

[Belgerum]

Well, considering that Anorax here has seemed to have quit, and I've been messaging with Trixie and Mixolydian pony about their music, it seems we have a small problem with our release date of the 18th. I asked those two, and both agree that they'd be able to make it for the 25th, so I propose we delay the album until then, kay?

[K3WRO]

wait, Anorax Quit?

What?

[Belgerum]

He just said so on the last page.

Yes!
Someone contact bmo.

[Anorax]

wait, Anorax Quit?

What?

Yes, it is an unfortunate truth. As I am highly unlikely to be able to finish a track, even by the possible new deadline of the 25th, I see no reason to bother you guys any longer.

So, unless I do manage to finish something and turn it in as a submission, consider me off the project.

[Matthew N.]

I get it now. Isn't it obvious guys? Kyoga and Anorax have both been offline'ish lately - I bet it's taking care of Gaybraham taking all their spare time away from them.

[Anorax]

yes definitely

~Anorax

The Bandcamp background does indeed need to be changed. It looks like you'd need to erase your name, and maybe replace it with ViRiDiA's, since he's joined.

Also, if anyone objects to delaying the release, please say so now. I once again, am impatient, and want to know for certain soon. I'll probably mass-message Skype once I get back onto my computer tonight, and say I want a decision made by tomorrow night.

One last time, PLEASE spend some time reviewing the work of others on soundcloud. Especially those with no comments yet. We want to make sure everyone feels included! And if you haven't posted your WiP to the group yet, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR. http://soundcloud.com/groups/mlr-lesser-knowns/

[Matthew N.]

I've been ready for a while now. I don't mind postponing it though.

[Ed Viper]

I am writing this message from another computer because of the fact that my computer is now unable to go online. This is also why I am not on Skype.

Oh, okay, good. We thought you died or something.

[Ed Viper]

I think it was extended a week, which collides with After Party, so we might extend it even another week to make sure we get more recognition. Don't know for sure, though.

I actually am not sure if we've officially extended it or not. Belgerum was holding a vote earlier. Ask him.

[meletric]

I thought After Party wasn't until July 1st?

[K3WRO]

I thought After Party wasn't until July 1st?

Um, sir, wrong thread

[LFP]

Yes after party is on the 1st, so if we're extending it even further we should extend it 2-3 weeks, which probably is too much : P

[Matthew N.]

I beg you not to extend it for more than a week. The one week itself is already making the difference between BP-AP and TLK much smaller. I understand that some of you had some unforeseen issues, so I agree to give you guys a week longer, but not 2-3! We had so much time to prepare for this album that I really can't believe that those who knew about it months beforehand are not ready / are quitting.

[K3WRO]

I'm actually pretty much done with my song,

It's 7 minutes long, Freeform, and I extended it with a longer piano outro and fixed the clipping issues on the pads.

All I need to do now is
-Drum EQ
-Fixing that break part in the beginning of the track
-Remove distortion and noise from the supersaw layers
