Radio-Ready Single - "Moonchild" Song Challenge
Hey there! Still not sure if this was a thing, if they decided to do a mixing challenge instead, or both but didn't have prices for both... still confused. The download link on the EVENTS site clearly said: "Download the guitar and vocal tracks for the production challenge". Whatever, started to make my own track with Lucy's enchanting "Moonchild" vocals. Don't think it's finished yet: still some things to do production wise (some weird notes on the bass f.e., cause I was puzzled by one of the guitar chords, snare sound is not the best one, etc.), still many things to do mixing wise, I guess. Not sure what genre it is, has some synthpop vibes in the second half. Having realized that there was no "production challenge" (or was there?) I finished the song without aiming for "perfect" or "masterpiece" but for a decent (sounding) track, cause I really liked what I had so far. Had some technical issues, didn't find the exact sounds I was looking for, whatever... let's call it a "demo version". Mostly used the provided "demo tracks" (vocals and guitar/organ), only added some of the additional vocals at the end (without much processing). ------ LONG STORY SHORT: If anybody wants to take a listen the song (it's quite different from Dane's version, but as I said: I really like it) HERE'S THE LINK TO MY MOONCHILD VERSION: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UzP4j_9qpjSkEc_BdOqW3GRxfIkY_mpG/view?usp=sharing ====== If somebody else made this "mistake" and produced their own version OR feels inspired to make his own song version now, after the show - feel free to add a link here in the comments! ;) =======

@Mia Tracy Thanks, love to hear that. :) Well, there's actually a brand new one, not really happy with the sound yet, kinda thin (not sure why). But otherwise I think it's one of my best pop tracks yet (and there's over 250 now, most of them on soundcloud). Uploaded this for a listening livestream this evening on youtube, don't think it will be played (you have to be a verified boombox member to make sure), so if you wanna take a listen - you'd actually be the first person to ever hear it: https://app.boombox.io/app/shares/cQO50xj5EYGjk43zX Would be interesting to hear what you think about it. --- Here's the stream today by Alina, maybe you know her. There's other such boombox livestreams, but I think she's the most fair and really trying to help, even if she's not "into" your style/genre. ;) https://www.youtube.com/live/7rTqy6znudg

@Christine Gonzale Well, can't complain - and I'm not even a real member of TRE. ;) Only a regular guest of those events. Hoped to hear some more music (other versions), but not really sure if there's (still) much going on here at skool, or if most of the action, most of "community" is over at mastering.com.

Well, if you thought SSL lost their dang mind offering a two-plugins-bundle...
Think twice! ;) But first up: There's a XLN sale over at Pluginboutique, so if you still havent't got their RC-20 (shame on you!) or still hesitated to buy their XO or the splendid LIFE plugin (like I did) - right now they're all 50% off! And the latter two have never been this "cheap", only 30% off at most. Well, still sadly too much dough for me... :( https://www.pluginboutique.com/deals/show?sale_id=19608 ALSO: if you're still in need of f.e. some referecing tools: MASTERING THE MIX plugins are on sale, too (indcluding Reference 2 and Expose 2): https://www.pluginboutique.com/deals/show?sale_id=19440 ============= BUT coming back to my topic: IK MULTIMEDIA may really have lost heir mind before they agreed to these deals over at humblebundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/software/ultimate-music-production-bundle-software For the price of 1€ you get 10GB of orchestral sounds with Miroslav Philharmonik 2 CE (a bit dated but still usable). OR you can pay at least 27,07€ (dollar price should be similar) and you aditionally (!) get their complete new TrackS 6 collection (19 plugins!), Amplitube 5 SE, Sample Tank 4 SE (30GB of sounds), Tonex SE, a really nice selection of MODO drum kits and basses, an Upright piano, some more plugins - and the list goes on (a bit)!!! AND: it's money spent for a good cause (supporting MusicWill). :P --- It runs for another 17 days... but don't hesitate too long!

@Yogesh Raj Kumar Well, sales come and go, hard to decide when "to go for it". As I said, woul be interested in LIFE, but still much money for me. So you go for cheaper goodies, but it all adds up and you might have spent more than you would have for the one you initially wanted. And everywhere they want you to "go subscription" now, so much stuff for so little money! Each month... And then there's this other subscription offer over there... so adds up, too. Best to keep cool I guess and make up your mind what's really a "good buy", something that suits your workflow, does something special etc... or just doing the same thing as the 200 plugins you already have. :P And to keep cool and see what keeps coming back again (and again), so if you don't take the bait now there's many chances later to take this "one of a kind" deal. ;)

But, as I said: some of the newer XLN stuff (Life, XO) is 50% for the first time (normally 30%), so if you wanna go for it... ;)

Also quite late... and not sure if ANY of the many, many tracks I made (arranged and produced) in the last days, weeks, and months would qualify for the occasion. They're all "digital" - no personal recordings, no "real" instruments. So here just three quite new, quite different examples, maybe somebody wants to take a short listen: --- Some "reggae pop": https://soundcloud.com/wunschm_schine/get-your-money-and-run Some "symphonic pop": https://soundcloud.com/wunschm_schine/i-bet-u-like-the-abuse Some "electronic pop": https://soundcloud.com/wunschm_schine/give-me-what-i-need -- Haven't gone through the "car test" or the "expensive hifi equipment test", since I don't own any such things. :P

There's also this new unpublished "post rock" song I'm working on right now and struggling a bit with the mix... so some help might be, well, helpful. ;) https://on.soundcloud.com/H3y9V
