June Voting thread for the composition Challenge

[lurksalot]

These months just seem to fly by, but then, we get get to hear the great new jazzfunkpunk creations from @Leonard Smalls who was on fire again in MAy.

 

So we fired up the DAW once again and showed how the following picture inspired us.

 

"Here's a pic. it's of some UFOs I saw while on a plane to Geneva a few years ago."

 

 

Have a listen through and vote for your favourite 3 tracks

 

 

1   @Al Nico       amongst Us    Inspired as we all are by alien music, I created this short piece in Canis Minor, building sounds on synths that portray typical sounds heard during alien encounters, including deep low bass.

All dynamics have been removed to capture and portray the natural sound, feel and anxiety of being probed in a busy alien space craft hospital.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2   @Chiliwailer    Jammin' with E.T. -  is inspired by how I imagine it'd sound when jamming with E.T. at 30,000 feet. 

 

 

 

 

 

3  @Baloney Balderdash   So I put on Syd Barrett's spectacles, and this is what happened... :

 

 

 

 

 

4  @Leonard Smalls   A punkyfunky thing based on a true story told by a lovely old man (Herr Wilhelm Lügner) in my local pub...

 

 

 

 

 

 

5 @upside downer    Anything can happen on a plane. You could drink a hot brew, have a snooze or ingest some top quality drugs whilst watching unidentified flying objects out the window.

 

 

 

 

 

6 @AndyTravis  Just thought about Top Gun incidental music…

 

 

 

 

 

7   Lurksalot  no singing here then , definitely 

 

 

 

 

 

8  @Jean-Luc Pickguard   This is 'Aliens in the sky' by Jinky Fuzz.

 

 

 

Eclectic works as descriptor for this collection, excellent also works for me !

 

So that's the lot please cast your three votes by midnight on 30th 

 

Enjoy

Any more takers to split the vote , it’s tight at the top 😁

[ezbass]

Voted, but doesn't seem to have helped in splitting the pack.

[lurksalot]

That was a close call all round! It stayed tight at the top with 3 joint winners and 5 joint runners up only a point behind , well done all 👍

 

With an inaugural spot on the top step I will ask @Baloney Balderdash to send me an image for the July challenge.

I shall attempt the certificates this evening 

[Leonard Smalls]

Excellent stuff!

However, assuming that all the participants voted, only 2 other Basschatters scrawled their "X"...

Twas ever thus!

Thank you for trusting me this honor. 

 

Looking at the poll though, it seems I was caught up, but that might have happened after the voting officially closed? (also the numbers doesn't add up 10 voters should equate to 30 votes, and there is only 27).

 

In any case image have been send in a PM.

Really enjoyed the tunes this month. As Len pointed out, it's a shame that, on a site for musicians, so few manage to find half an hour or so to listen to them. Hey ho, so it goes, it's still great fun!

The Winners are those that participate; the Losers are those that decide not to listen to their works.

That’s it, still good fun, and for me it’s the taking part that counts, and hearing what others have made of it.
 

I genuinely can’t imagine anyone other than me wanting to hear one of my tunes more than once anyway, so maybe it’s best they are spared the experience in the first place? 😂😊
