Merry Christmas everybody. A couple of guys over at MC decided to put together a few chr-x-mass tunes to help everyone get into the christmas spirit before the big day. Despite being widely forgotten about by most people including myself there is actually enough entries to warrant some kind of release so here it is for everyone to enjoy.
Featuring fabdabulous christmas jingles by:
Inri Cheetos
Izekeal
J'Aime Pavao (Mamamack)
The Immortal
and PTizzle
How can you not resist chilling out to this shit during your holly jolly festive season.

This is offensive to my religion (Kwanza'a)
-
I'm downloading this
-
The cover art is fantastic. I'm listening to it now.
-
yeah where is that art originally from
-
1- Inri Cheetos: Almost decent but you still have a lot to learn you n00b
2- Izekeal: Nice bass solo (I think)
3- Immortal and Ptizzle: Wow that sounded really professional and well recorded, post lyrics please
4- Mamamamamack: I'm not trying to be offensive or anything but this isn't actually very pleasant to the ears
5- Inri Cheetos: Boring
6- The Immortal: Nice trance song or whatever my favourite track it's very soft and calm
-
oh darn
i forgot about this
i will listen later
-
Overall this was awesome and it is a shame it didn't have a few more submissions.
1. Inri Cheetos: I liked this one a lot because I thought it captured the holiday spirit or whatever while being original.
2. Very mellow, I liked it a lot.
3. Yea nice co-op, as with all Ptizzle stuff the lyrics and rapping were well done. Nice sound Immortal
4. A nice cover. Though it sounds a little harsh at the very end, most of it was solid playing.
5. I liked the other one a little better but this was still nice. Made me think of winter.
6. Liked this one also, I think it fit nicely with the theme.
So yeah great work, everyone's piece worked well with the theme. I'll probably throw all these into any Holiday mix I make.
-
Oh wow Mamamack. Good job!
Pleasant tune.
A little... screechy.
-
Sounds good everyone!
Also, bonus points to anyone that can guess what version of that song I'm playing.

-
The asterisks are falling on the top of the topic it's rather scary goldenratio
-
i dont see them
-
yeah GR they are working here
-
just at the top or do they stay on your screen? it looks really good locally but for me it just shows an asterisk in my post. what browsers are you guys using?
-
i see no flakes at all
also im listening through and i like it
the rap track is pretty rad
edit: ok just finished the rap track and that is stuff i can take with me to parties so yeah gj
at the end on the vocals is that one of those CORRECTORS or whatever they're called? I wanna get hold on one of those...
-
Here is my contribution (http://tunez.drule.net/merry_christmas_from_drule.mp3). Put it in the list please.
-
They stay on the screen for me (until they reach the bottom).
-
Yeah man I was trying to do the snowflake thing for like 2 hours as well but I couldn't get it to work at all and I had no idea why, thanks for trying. Also the cover art was just some random image I had saved on my computer that I put a foget face on.
-
yeah the javascripts i found were all terrible and didn't even work. the one i am using looked the best but man was the code terrible, so i got it all formatted ok and it doesnt get errors but its not showing up right on the forums.
http://mods.whahay.net/groger/snow.js if anyone wants to take a stab at it
-
OK forget the asterisks and comment the songs to satisfy my ego
-
inri cheetos: were bad
mamamacks: was um interesting
-
@Mamamack: First things first: a lot of the "comments" you're getting are due to the recording quality of your song. I don't know what kind of microphone you used, but it was very crackly. For recording, I'd recommend using a (small-diaphragm) condenser microphone. If you ever plan on doing some recording again for fun and have a few extra dollars saved up, I bought mine for amateur home recording for $60 and it works great. Google "clarinet recording" and you can find out how best to "place" the microphones. From what I read, they should be placed near the finger holes.
Secondly, I don't know if you used a different instrument to record the background or not, but the lead clarinet sounded a bit out-of-tune (I have no idea how "tuning" woodwind instruments works). I also don't know what program you used to record, but you most definitely had clipping going on, which meant that at very loud volumes, the sound was becoming highly distorted. Most recording interfaces have live recording-level meters to prevent clipping for occuring. Usually this means you need to move the mic further away, or flip a volume -dB switch if your mic has one (or even play softer, as a last resort).
Thirdly, I liked your tune! The bass notes in the back were an nice touch to prevent it from being just a boring melody. However, you didn't do enough to SPICE IT UP (add some Mamamack personal flavor to it).
Ill try to say more about everyone else's song later.

I love how this turned out. Glad it got released, I was scared it was gonna flop for a while.
-
Merry Christmas!!! (Though it's past already.)
I got tools, lots of them. I'm going to use them to build stuff. Hurrah.

Yeah, it's Auto-Tune 5, used by professional bad singers everywhere.
