Collaborative Tempest Album

LucidSFX · « **on:** September 07, 2017, 07:47:10 AM »

Who wants to put a collaborative album together? I used to subscribe to Tom Cosm back when we first came up with Cosmic Core. I think it would be rad to do the same featuring the Tempest. The album will showcase one track per artist. We can setup some rules to ensure that the Tempest is either 100% on the song or at least 50%. It would be awesome if one of us could master the tracks (has the skill not just the plugins *grin*). We will also have to set a date for final submission.

Looking for interest right now...if you are interested please post here;)

I can't say for sure that I'd have the time, but I do like the idea; especially if the challenge is to make the tracks using the Tempest as the ONLY sound source. Otherwise, I'm less interested. It just depends on whether the deadline works with my tour schedule... Keep me posted, Lucid.

Cheers!

Will do. If we delay the timeline too much it may be a problem but I am thinking a Christmas Release party is more than adequate. Even if someone has an existing track which is good. I like the challenge of putting a track together. Once we have enough interested people, we will have to get organised. I think, if we can pull this together and push for a proper publication 2nd review of the Tempest we even have a chance to have our music heard by a larger audience. Fame and Glory aside...making music is what we do. A little structure may even make us better musicians...GASP!

I can give it a shot, i'm like as amateur as they come but hey ok, i like the idea coz i really like my Tempest haha xD

Will we multitrack or will it all be one sequenced iive track, can we use external midi etc? What are the conditions of entry @LucidSFX?

I have a few ideas. First is to get enough people interested in principle then we will plan it.

Saw the FB post and I'm interested. Let me see if I can come up with something or dig up an older track.

Once we have a committed group, I will create a closed Facebook page for us to discuss the project.

Saw this on Facebook. Would love to get on board!

Alright! This could actually finally happen:)

I need some volunteers with mastering experience and graphic design. External processing is fine. Using the box standalone or sequenced from DAW are both acceptable. The key is that the Tempest alone is the sole sound generating source. There aren't many tracks out there without processing of some sort and the goal of this is to polish this to show the best possible use for the Tempest. However, if you choose not to use FX that is fine. I generally don't and prefer the raw sound. However, different genre's demand fx.

Deadline to submit interest is Sunday September 17.

Ok sounds good I'll start fleshing out an idea i have for this already. Is there any length requirements?

Monocon · « **Reply #16 on:** September 10, 2017, 01:31:30 AM »

I've just finushed a Tempest only track.
Would love to be a part of this

LucidSFX · « **Reply #17 on:** September 10, 2017, 02:26:32 AM »

Thanks for participating Monocon.

ROBH - Good question. 7min tops. Unless there is a compelling reason to keep the track rolling as I am alway open to the creative.

Nice idea Lucid! I'd be interested in the T-challenge! Count me in.

Hey, great idea. I would love to get involved in that. I hope, the fact it's my first post on the forum here is not a problem.
Oh, hello everyone!
