Why don't we have a competition? Community composes menu music and then votes?

[Frell 80]

Fellow composers out there, what do you say? We all compose menu songs and then the DayZ community votes on which fits the vibe the best? (So obviously no dubstep or anything)

 

We can do just the menu theme (about 30-60 seconds, no reason to afk at the menu really) and possibly a death melody?

Maximum submissions per person would be 4 (2 menus 2 deaths)?

Limit instruments to piano and strings (so people without expensive VST's/live recordings can still compete)?

 

I'd love to do something like this, will give me something to do when bored. How does everyone else feel?

Rocket's favorite song by Skrillex pro xX360ultrekillaz nublolhrd cor is "I came in like a wrecking BABY BABY BABY OOOOOOOOOOOOOH" so I think it's already match-point.

The whole point would be to have a community competition rather than BiS paying out the ass to license an existing song

All I saw was 'skrillex' lol

This would actually be pretty cool.

 

An alternative would be for submissions to be included on a specific radio channel.

[Mos1ey 6301]

Bad idea IMO.

 

Say no one submits anything good - then they have to use the 'best' one regardless?

Not necessarily. If there are no good ones, you just announce 'none suitable' and go find a professional solution.

No if they're all bad none have to be used.

 

Could even have a vote option for "none of these"
