Tom2112 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Have the forum members ever attempted to write a song together? I can't recall it happening (maybe for good reason) I know there have been covers etc. Basic idea: Upload a few riffs, put a poll together getting as many forum members to vote, choosing the most voted for riffs or riff (vocal melody/lyrics, or instrument) and then form a song around that riff(s). Set a time limit for the poll so that it actually does happen. Use a mod or someone not involved with writing ideas as the producer and final vote for all the likely disagreements Finally, when it's ready one of mygnrs mix masters could possibly mix and master it. Anyone with recording gear would be welcome to contribute, whatever instrument you play! I can offer guitar, drums (electric , some vocals... I stress some! Bass. Obviously I would love to have as many different forum musicians on it as possible though It would definitely be interesting, whether it would be good? who knows! Anyway, a bit pie in the sky atm moment, but who's interested? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DeadSlash Posted September 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) Half of the forum would be bitching that it wasn't written by the original forum members, so it's total crap. 20 years from now, an old locker of @RussTCB will be sold, and inside of it, incomplete drafts of forums messages that were never sent will be uncovered and hoarded by a small segment of the community. Many will clamor for them, but the hoarders will hold them tight, insisting that they won't leak them as it might jeopardize the potential of any possible future posts. My.MyGnRforum will have a strict 7 day ban in place for anyone asks for copies of said drafts, but it will be ok to discuss them. Our children will make lists of which drafts they want to see the most, based on the titles of the unfinished threads. It will be a whole thing....

soon Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I like this idea. I could contribute some electric guitar riffs* and then arrangement ideas as the song forms if that was desired of me. I just hope that the drummers will play the same drum fill every time And also play too fast 'because we tell them too' *recording pending me finding the available time of day to record a live amp in an apartment without bothering neighbours or their pets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha! That's probably something we'll all be dealing with! Pets outside to hell with the neighbours... And your lease😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Just thought Id toss out an idea. What about if we manage to finish a song we try and use it to fundraise for the forum? Just like, "if you pitch $2 you get this fun little track a few of us ruffians had some kicks making" ? If not, its cool. Im just spit balling.
