Event id #3461 : Yogi's & Flex' Melodic 2SID Compo 2024

We welcome you to the first edition of this new compo! :)

RULES:

- Make sure it sounds melodic so with nice melodies.
- You are allowed to submit as many 2SIDs you want.
- Next to original work all kinds of covers and conversions are allowed.
- You can use either SID 6581 or 8580, single speed, no samples. Please mention which SID models you used.
- 2SID should not been published before.
- You can use a supporting image if it enhances the release. If you have enough time ask a skilled graphician to make a piccy for you. If you don't AI / converted gfx could work.
- Deliver a SID file and an executable PRG with the address of 2nd SID provided.
- You can make the 2SIDs as long as you want.
- Both PAL and NTSC accepted.
- Please mention if mono or stereo is preferred.

Other necessary rules may be added later on.

DEADLINE:

30 November 2024, 23.59 CET.

WINNER:

Fame and glory to the tune with highest CSDb votes when the compo ends – 30 November 2024, 23.59 CET.

Voting platform is CSDb but results will be counted using real average.

There's going to be one week of voting phase after compo time so that's 1 December 2024 - 8 December 2024, 23.59 CET.

Have fun SIDicians! :)

@chatGPZ: I guess it is. Maybe you can use the above mentioned 2SIDs as reference. Anyway just make 2SIDs in a way you think they are melodic and see what other people think about them.

@bansai:

I'm not 100% sure how profound an answer you're looking for but it goes like this:

> Go to Userpage
-> Add Release
-> "Name of your tune [2sid]"
-> Edit Release Information
-> Fill in the release type "C64 Music"
-> Released at: "Yogi's & Flex' Melodic 2SID Compo 2024"
-> (choose) Compo:
*** C64 2SID for Original tunes
*** C64 Music for Cover tunes

-> Fill in release date
-> Upload the Screenshot and fill in the credits
-> Upload Files (both .sid and .prg)

Then you can mention the rest of the details in "Production Notes". Like Mono/Stereo + 6581/8580 + Address of 2nd SID + in case of cover tune mention the original... etc..

So I hope that what I came up with is "melodic" enough for the compo.

I must admit, I really don't know what to do with 6 SID voices, so it's mostly "filler" stuff :-)

Well, just submitted mine. My first ever c64 compo! This one is a reworking of a tune I originally wrote on Sunvox. Tried to give some spatial/stereo effect to the synths. Appreciate any feedback.

Seeing there are only 6 entries until now, we decided to extend the deadline to 31 December 2024, 23.59 CET.

Thanks to the organizers and participants!
And special cheers to the "winnerz" ;-)

PS: I'll remove the "[2sid]" from the title of my song now (again).

Imho the release title field should not be abused as replacement for missing tags or database fields.
