No we don't, we have a producer and a samplist (both of those are me) but no synthesizerist.

I'm sure we can fit you in on a couple songs at least.

Trawl through the thread and listen to the demo versions I posted, if you want to contribute whip something up and then send me the synthesizer (or guitar) line, and this is important—without anything else behind it. Because I can't use it if you put the recording you're playing it over in there too.

Also, what would you like to be credited as?


Oh, and Dub? I sampled Tom Waits. Just thought you'd like to know.

[up]I'll work on a demo and see what you have. I'd be fine with being credited as "synths".

[up][up]"Cute Without The E (Cut From The Team)". I had a TBS phase, but I'm not really that into them anymore. I still dig up "Liar" from time to time, though.

[up] Oh, cool!! They have a new album coming out, you should check it out!

Also. Spain, can you help with making theme songs for something?

Like, short bits of music to associate with something?

cute: Y'know, I've tried that before, and I have to be completely honest with you, I am terrible at it. So you'll probably want to ask someone else.

Bound: Oh, I know that. I just mean like, should I attribute that to "Bound By the Moon" or your real name, whatever that'd be, or...?

I mean I've tried making theme music and such before. I can't do it.

Y'know what, I'm gonna help cute out here with his words.

The Fear Mythos is starting up. cute's running the whole shebang, and various tropers are helping out, including myself. The Fear Mythos needs music. We have various monsters, all original besides two that are taken from the public domain *

. But the concept of music comes up a lot in the various sections of the Mythos (it's most prominent in the section of my creation, EAT). cute thinks we need theme songs.

If there's anyone here who can help out with that, I'd love to know. You will get full credit OOG

.

We'd appreciate any help, whether it be creepy ambience, minor musical themes (maybe a series of five or six notes that can be repeated in various videos, subtly), or a full-fledged theme tune.

Elsewhere, cute.

Yeah, sorry, not my thing.

However, iirc, the entirety of Tangerine Dream's discography is Creative Commons nowadays, so you might want to look into that.

So I have two tracks that you'll likely be seeing in here either today or tomorrow.

They are called The Funky Cow (title's a long story) and Lost Children respectively. One has a cool vocal sample.

So yes, I am the guy who is going to be the new rapper. I don't have a lot of experience in that area, but Spain thought the demo I sent sounded good enough. It'll be a fun learning experience.

This Fear Mythos thing interests me. A lot. Just show me the roadmap and I'll have a demo of some kind up.

Spain: Sorry, but I don't think this is my area of expertise.

Oh, ok. That's fine too.

Hrrm. Now that the Tromufi project is getting more and more serious, maybe I should make another for general music collaboration? Having a bunch of cross-convos might get confusing.

Bounce!

I've got some beats for y'all. The three you should download are "Mike K", "The Funky Cow", and "The Lost Children".

I need some help fleshing "Funky Cow" especially out. But if y'all want to contribute to any of those you can. I think "Lost Children" is good, and "Mike K" is minimalist on purpose, being more of a rap track.

This is the folder where I keep all my Tromufi resources.

You sampled Soda Stereo? nice.

Well I'd love to check my list to see what you're talking about, but my internet is being slower than a special ed slug race right now, so....

edit: Are you sure you're not logged in to any mediafire account that you may have? Cuz it'll be showing you yours if you are.

You shouldn't need one to download stuff from my folder, and certainly not to view it.

Gah. I'd just get the direct share links, but my internet is being a bitch.

I'll get them to you tomorrow if you can't.
