I think if we lock our collective arms together we can make some really beautiful fan-art.
Is this another One On Twoism or something new? Maybe. Who knows? Does it matter at this point?
Here's what you do:
Musicians:
- Make a boc tribute track
(whip out the molten flutey synths if that's what BoC means to you). - Tracks can't be longer than 6 minutes, 6 seconds and 6 milliseconds.
- You must be the art's or track's rights-holder. (don't sample The Beatles, don't use AI).
- Tracks must be exclusively released for this mix, not to be released on another comp or record (you won't give up any rights though, so scouts honor).
- Send -exactly one finished track- to [email protected] with the subject:
"Song: twoism_username - artist_name - song title"
Imagineers are also more than welcome to start creating visuals. This could mean:
- Video footage/art that could be used for music videos.
- Album concept art (don't know what this comp will be called so keep typesetting editable)
- Any boc-esque visuals at all. To spread the good word of this comp later it would be cool if we could dazzle an audience with any psychedelic visuals. Even random swirly kaleidoscopic geometric shapes are welcome, but videos > images.
- Send to [email protected] with the subject:
"Video/art/image/website/influencer/whatever: twoism_username - artist name".
People that are good at spreading the good word of this comp around the internet once it is done are very welcome to contact me as well.
Submissions stay open until June 9th.
What happens after that?
- If I receive less than 6 suitable tracks the comp will be cancelled, sorry. (this is very unlikely)
- If I receive more than 16 suitable tracks I will assemble some twoismers to make a selection.
- Get someone with really good ears and hardware to master the tracks.
- Determine the order of the tracks on the comp.
- Edit together one or two music videos using submitted video.
- Compile all the art and music into a neat package.
- Release to the public in the fourth quarter (video on youtube, album on Bandcamp).
I will most likely make a few polls later, if there are clear forks in the road. Like:
- What album art should we use?
- What proceeds should be donated towards (or spent on)?
- Do we want a physical release? Vinyl? Cassettes?
- ...etc.
We'll cross these bridges when we get there.
Let's make this one heck of a psychedelic, hauntologic, warm and warbly compilation!
Ready? let's go!
Have fun everyone. Looking forward to listening to everyones tunes.... I can't promise my track will be as good as "Magic Window" but it should be at least entertaining...
