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 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. |

@Mixer: Linus is schizophrenic? ;) |

Indeed but who are we to judge people by this? I guess it affects his music only in a good way. Tough moments in MSL from time to time but we are really forgiving, compassionate and understand the issue. |

In case of one schizophrenic musician we have two musicians ;) |

Sort of. One musician sticks to even signatures, the latter to odd ones. Which is advantageous of course. |

Shouldn't he exist as Linus-A and Linus-B in MSL memberstatus? |

Not really, he's a consistent artist all in all ;) |

One body = one member. That's convincing. But what about votes? |

Ah, such wonderful freedom we do not have to hide anything but the heroin anymore. 'Quite the relief', we might add. |

A and B? I would think more in terms of Linus Minor and Linux Major ;-) |
