Event id #2312 : Je suis #Linus music compo
Compo's premise is as simple as that:
You 'just' have to create a tune which imitates Linus' trademark sounds and ideas. Seems simple but it's not :D
There is only one rule - Linus himself cannot participate! (No wonder, huh? Still, I can and other MSL guys can too, eh eh :P) Naturally, he can vote for all contestants :D
Apart from that all composers have total freedom regarding entries' number, playtime, speed, editor, executability etc. - all in all it shall be judged by the people and results will be based on average of Linus' CSDb vote and other CSDb votes to make it more spicy ;)
I guess it might be great introduction to whole compo series covering all musicians. Have fun!
edit:
Having thought a little more on the subject I've decided to add one quite necessary rule - GT composers cannot use original Linus' GT worktunes if they are luckily in possession of any. I guess it would be as aimless here as imitating Hubbard in his own player with stock instruments :D |

Single speed, of course. It's gotta be authentic.

Only two rules as stated above - apart from those you're all free to interpret, copy, make fun of and I believe Linus and other listeners will appreciate different aspects appropriately :D Fun uber alles! \o/ |

I wonder what happened to Linus around 2006. Lost virginity? Started using other editor? Moved from parents place? (<= Meant strictly as compliment ;-) |

@ Booker: Please no! I wouldn't appreciate it at all. :) |

I would forget - it's not by any means a remix compo, just to make it clear for everyone. The goal is not to rework existing Linus' tune with your usual sounds but quite the opposite ;) Of course some delicate hints of his original themes might be a really nice addition. |

I haven't lost my virginity, yet. According to old Zeidlords observance we are allowed to practise sexual intercourse after the divorce. I have no idea when/if that's going to happen :( Meanwhile I'll keep on goattrucking(*) in ole Grandma's basement, where I live.

I believe that Linus really wants to do easy, light and beautiful melodic compositions, but has to fight his wicked alter ego who just wants to go *booom booom* *skreeeeeek*.
Sitting in front of his goattracker he thinks: "....must.....resist.." while his fingers subconsciously write another record low bassnote. |
