Well last month ended with a dead heat with two winner, so that means another dual picture month!!

So here's you inspiration this month :D





Here's the usual rules and gumph!

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]A picture will be posted by the previous months winner to act as inspiration for that months piece. The piece should be no more than 5 minutes long and should be composed and recorded in the same month as the piece in question.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]To be clear, any instruments / sounds can be used although copyright should be followed for obvious reasons. Also Basschat T&C's should be followed within the actual recording so :[/font][/color]

Interesting images but one thing I have noticed on here is how important backbeats are to most folk. If one tries to create a Jazz feel, it is harder because the level of playing s is higher and getting a jazz feel out of sequencers and midi is nigh on impossible :lol:.

We shall see where this takes us :)

Might be time to dust off the upright and share some of your live playing with us, Bilbo.

[quote name='RockfordStone' timestamp='1367423011' post='2065478']looking at these and at the moment............. i got nuffin' :([/quote]

In the words of Bruce Lee (or possibly Yoda): [size=5]"Don't look... [i]feel[/i]" ;)[/size][size=5] [/size]

[size=4]Seriously though Rob, it doesn't need to be a literal interpretation of the pictures. They're just meant to be a jump-off point for your imagination. I'm sure you'll hit upon something mate - be good to have you on board again.[/size]

:lol: Currently my idea looks like this...



...but give it time mate! And a few glasses of wine. And more time. And more wine. Then a good night's sleep. And typically, the next day while, oh I dunno, seated on the lavatory I'll be struck with inspiration and hey presto! It's a moment to share, for sure :D

I have already posted this in Free VST's section,
but in case you missed it.
http://basschat.co.uk/topic/77603-free-vsts/page__view__findpost__p__2063025

Not sure if it is any good - but it is aimed at creating various listening enviroments when using Headphones.
A couple of forums i visit like it.
Also a nice free compressor, that i believe Si uses.

Congratulations, Skol, on a well-deserved win in the May competi... Oh, it's perhaps a tad early, did I hear..? I just thought I'd get it over with, so that everyone else could concentrate on their entries... One never knows, one could come second..? :mellow:

:ph34r: :lol:

I'm thinking some flower-power jazz... not got a lot of time until later in May - will have a go for sure if I can think of a tune that'll work... lucky I'm off to the flowery Spa town of Cheltenham for the jazz festival this weekend then innit?

<p sab="2177">I dont know jazz AT ALL , but having done a bit of research , could I describe it as a sonic version of artists throwing paint at a canvass , in&nbsp;turn ,&nbsp;while the others hold the canvas &nbsp;,&nbsp; with a &#39;this is my colour ......splat&#39; , and see what turns out ?</p>
<p sab="2178">&nbsp;</p>
<p sab="2179">I get there are some &#39;tunes&#39; but do they ever get played the same way twice ?</p>
<p sab="2180">&nbsp;</p>
<p sab="2181">Not dissing it , but is there anything to get apart from everyone having a good splat ? ( and obviously enjoying themselves )</p>
<p sab="2182">&nbsp;</p>
<p sab="2183">Because I fear I may have some fun with this one <img alt=":lol:" class="bbc_emoticon" sab="2186" src="http://basschat.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/laugh.png" title=":lol:" /></p>
