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

I wouldn't bother otherwise :D Crying that you cannot be in? :D

Speaking of SID dumps and similar tools - if some of composers preffer this kind of effort and workflow - it's your call but I assume that doing everything by ear is more of a challenge and fun ;)

So basically you can take ANY tune you ever did - dub it "Linus styled (distant future)" and participate? As there are no other rules and nobody is going to enforce any rules, hm?

I'd rather turn Linus in and make him a judge for such cases :)

.oO( What would a JSL gfx cover compo horrify us with? THAT would be interesting. )

What's the deadline? If it's not tomorrow or next week, I'm willing to take the risk of publicly making a fool of myself here. In one speed.
