the venerable monster mash, the halloween song of note for millenia. we all love it, but we're sick of it and we want halloween to be a holiday of dozens of songs that fill up books and books, and we want to go halloween caroling like we do at christmas, the holiday of infinite songs. this contest is to fill out and maybe even replace the traditional halloween repertoire with some new fire. rules: -make a halloween song -it has to have original lyrics that you sing -you can use a premade backing track or make your own music -you can enter more than once if you want to -there are 2 prizes, which i haven't made yet so i can't say what it is (but it's a real thing so i'll need your mailing address if you win) -i will award a prize and there will be a community poll to decide the second prize deadline: the deadline is friday oct 21 so that i can hopefully mail it on saturday and get it to you before halloween if you're in usa. prizes i was going to make an example song but i didn't yet, but i will try tonight edit: here's my song https://soundcloud.com/classicist/206a entries
here's the instrumental from my song, if you'd like to sing over that: https://www.dropbox.com/s/okd03mvw8vyj7c1/206_instr.wav?dl=0 here's a monster mash karaoke version if you want to just sing over that to get started and here's a .wav of that, for easy audacity import https://www.dropbox.com/s/bkzagtxnl0rpkfw/monstermash.wav?dl=0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cWbG-nxH2w my song is mostly remixed sounds from that monster mash karaoke and this scary sounds video, so check that out for inspiration too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-ZHFy1O8BQ posting smiling fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Oct 22, 2016 |

I've never recorded my voice before over music. probably the quickest thing is to just record on http://vocaroo.com/ with the backing track playing over your speakers. if you want to have a little more control audacity is probably the most straigthforward program for editing audio. if you have a mac garageband is a good choice. here is a .wav version of the monster mash karaoke so you can import it to audacity really easily if you want https://www.dropbox.com/s/bkzagtxnl0rpkfw/monstermash.wav?dl=0 |

thread title made me think of this. the coincidence and the connection are almost spooky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGcoHC4EUDY very halloween and monster and music related it's metal, but not as metal as the monster mash

I can produce the actual music part, but I can't sing for poo poo. Would be willing to collab with someone who wants to sing, if anyone is interested.
