April Composition Voting thread

[lurksalot]

 **PUT YOUR SHADES ON**

This might be the brightest thread you have ever seen on BC !!

 

 

A most excellent winning tune from @Leonard Smalls  brought out his choice of image for our April shenanigans .

 

He suggested that " Looks like folks voted for The Funk! So piccy here:"

 

 

 

 

Did it draw the Funk out of our compositioners , well, you will have to have a listen and judge for yourselves...

 

having judged , please then vote for you favourite  3 

 

 

1  @Chiliwailer   I really liked the photo, it made me think of the intensity of chaos caused by GICs and how that'd be spot on for a new pedal I'd got recently - so in this tune the GIC attack starts at around 35 seconds!

 

 

 

 

 

2 @Leonard Smalls  I've now rolled it in 3 coats of glitter and 2 coats of oak-stain varnish, so here's some ambient grooves in both 6:8 and 4:4 time. Possibly.

 

 

 

 

 

3  @Baloney Balderdash   Here I take you on a timeless, time dissolving, musical folk drone journey slowly flowing  down a fluctuating colorful stream of consciousness, with the help of my brand new EHX Pico Deep Freeze sample sustainer. 

 

 

 

 

 

4  @upside downer  Jah UD sits at his laptop staring at the swirling, whirling, wobbling colours draining downwards into his keyboard and decides it's probably time to kick the hallucinogenics into touch, but not before laying down this pop reggae curiosity. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5  @Jean-Luc Pickguard  This is about Quantum mechanics, specifically that quarks are never found alone — they are always stuck together in particles like mesons, which are made of a quark and an antiquark, or baryons — like protons and neutrons.

 

 

 

 

 

 

6  Lurksalot    every time I tried to do a bit something got in the way , so I thought the picture could be ...Interference 

 

 

There are only 6 but we will stick to the 3  votes and see what happens 

 

voting will close at midnight on 30th April

 

I told you to put your shades on

Ace work to all.

 

i forgot to submit planned entry because i was too busy being ousted from a band i didn’t really want to be in…😏

 

voted - but they were all really cool takes x

[lurksalot]

Well done guys , it was difficult to pick a winner out of those!

 

I’ll do the certificates later , in very small print , but we need to choose a photo.

 

I reckon the first one of you to  acknowledge your fine victory on this thread can send me a picture, and I’ll put it up this evening. 

[Leonard Smalls]

I'd like to thank you, the people (wipes tear) for your unswerving support and I love you all! Thank you!! etc

(Falls to his knees in floods of tears).

😁

however, as I did last month, I feel someone else should have a go... Who hasn't done one for a while?

[Chiliwailer]

I’d prefer not to choose a photo ta, so that leaves 2 😊

[Jean-Luc Pickguard]

Thank you to all who voted. I'll be happy to pick a photo, when do you need it by?

I echo this sentiment. However, I shall not be falling to my knees as they are knackered enough as it is.

I might have to initiate my Boss RC-500 Loop Station for the next contest, and perhaps even utilize the Zoom recorders ability to record 4 mono tracks/2 stereo tracks.

 

It's not a promise, but something I will consider.

 

It might still end up with just a single track improv like the other tracks I've contributed with.
