Exactly one week away! We had a good brainstorming thread a few days ago, so let's have another one!
>what songs are you writing/have you written? >what songs do you want to see parodied this year? >what subjects do you want to see written about? >what are you favourite songs from previous years? Please don't post lyrics or vocals in this thread. Wait until the 15th for that.
Still feel like these threads are kinda premature, but I can't say I'm not hype. Need some ideas for songs I've got earmarked though. Didn't someone say they'd been compiling a huge list of the happenings this year a few days ago?
A lot of people said they got a lot done lady year because of these early threads.
Writing is year-round. No singing until next week, though.
James Nelson
I want some metal this year.
Ayden Davis
Writing is during the event too
Austin Lopez
Wait... How do I become a part of this? I love noob music compos. Does it have to be a Vidya song remake?
Oliver Phillips
Just join in on the 15. We basically parody songs รก la Weird Al, where people write new video game lyrics for pre-existing songs, but you're free to compose new stuff if you want. Original songs would be awesome.
Jaxson Nguyen
I feel like lyrics should be kept to a bare minimum for the next week, at least. Same with trips and such. If these threads are to work, it should be as anonymous brainstorming sessions. Someone saying "don't forget to write about Club Penguin shutting down," another user saying "I would sing the heck out of a Moana parody" just to give writefags ideas on what to post in a week. So long as they don't start asking for direct feedback on unfinished lyrics, that should work.
Adam Myers
Do I have to sing? I can do it if I can use a robot voice aka Daft Punk, but my real voice sounds like a weasel being raped by an elephant
Thomas Allen
I suppose that works.
I have a few ideas anyway, I'm just not looking forward to the day 1 lyrics dump
Hunter Carter
Fuck no. I can't sing for fuck. Do other jobs.
James Ross
You can write, you can sing, you could make instrumental tracks if things are lacking, you could make cover art etcetera. Plenty of stuff to do if you've got the time and autistic dedication that's kept this shit going for four years.
Jonathan Richardson
So a simple mp3/wav/flac file with original electronic music will do?
Cooper Powell
True, but I feel like the day 1 dump is unavoidable. I've been working on songs all year long, and I know plenty of others (including singfags) do as well. We'll be posting walls of songs on the 15th regardless The way I see it, the hype is unavoidable, we may as well channel it as unobnoxiously as possible.
Samuel Perry
Sure, there's been a few original songs over the years. They don't tend to get the same kind of recognition as the regular stuff though. If you're shit hot with a vocoder I could pick one of the Daft Punk songs we've not covered to write lyrics for since I was thinking about it anyway.
Seconding this.
Sebastian Scott
I did the music for the Wh40k game before it died again since the dev bailed on fear of lawyers. People liked it ok, but /tg/ is hardly a good judge of music. I like Daft Punk slot, and doing robot voices is pretty easy. The only trick is to keep the consonants tight without relying on white noise.
Levi Rogers
You're a fucking asshole then. The whole point of things is that we wait until the time before working on things for the reason that otherwise there's a flood of only a few people spamming their shitty lyrics and meaning we get no variety in writers.
On the other hand, the majority of stuff you throw out on day 1 will probably be lost in the flood anyway, so no great loss.
Camden Rogers
I'm writing a song based on Eagle Fly Free by Helloween.
Luis White
That's actually breddy gud user, I like it a lot. If you want to see the kind of shit that the musical's put out in prior years as an example of what to expect, you can listen to them here vthemusical.bandcamp.com/ or check out some of the shit that got videos in the playlists here youtube.com/channel/UC6BqNSceFc39P_llCVr3vqA/playlists
Nice. I finally found a Bark at the Moon instrumental, I might give that a shot.
Reminder to everyone: make sure you can actually get an instrumental before you waste your time writing lyrics. I'd give a limb to get Bowie by Flight of the Conchords, but it just doesn't exist.
Parker Brooks
Quality is quality. If I get a jolt of inspiration I'm not gonna wait six months to put it to paper -- like I said, at a certain point, the hype is unavoidable. I'm sorry your rumpus is so rustled over it, but we'll have plenty of anons pouring over the songs, like Reminder Guy, to separate the wheat from the chaffe, and if memory serves, some of the best songs last year where written late into the Musical, so I'm not exactly fretting over it. It worked itself out last year, I don't think we should worry over it this year.
Just throw whatever you've done in a picosong or pastebin or whatever format's relevant to what you did and post it in the threads that'll be up pretty much the entire time between the 15th of September to the 15th of October, there'll be google docs keeping track of everything and the IRC shadow canal will sort out the final compilation of all the songs.
Ayden Sanders
There will be threads like this, but only start dumping stuff after the 15th.
Jayden Johnson
>kavnisky will never put out a sequel probably for the best, really
Meta thread for anyone who wants to check song availability. It's not 100% perfect, but are you really gonna go listen to all the songs to check otherwise?
Mason Taylor
I'd also recommend the Video Completion List. It lists every song we've done thus far, as it was released. Control-f should cut down on the searching.
Good shout, though it does make me sad that a lot of really great songs never got videos to go with them.
Landon Cox
Place your bets on which singfag isn't coming back this year.
Isaiah Perez
There is a curse/trend that each year one of the original singfags is kill. Second year Operanon, third year I don't remember and last year Songman.
Cooper Baker
Baritenor's facing hurricane season 2 electric boogaloo, so odds are on him.
Ian Martinez
I do know he was in the thread yesterday, but it doesn't count until the musical starts.
Noah Garcia
AnonFag, SuperSounds, or Roco, but only because I like them and that'd be just my luck.
Caleb Cooper
'you might be a fag kid'?
Ryder Cox
>Queef - The shitpost must go on
Brandon Sullivan
What kind of songs do you like better? Ones about games, the industry, the board, or straight up memes?
Eli Wright
Original songs without lyrics that convey an emotion or mode of being
Dominic Barnes
I wonder if that user from Half Life sticky ever gonna revise his parody for Exile Vilify. Because, well, assuming he didn't, I am polishing it. Also was writing a parody for A Stranger I Remain, but I got into writer's block. Can't think of a good lyrical adaptation. Which sucks. Also want to sing some parodies too.
Kevin Parker
I'd love to see a song about COD WWII (and maybe Battlefield 1, a little bit, since they're both in the same ballpark). It could be about someone rediscovering old, tired tropes and being delighted again, though they are old and tired for a reason. For some reason, I keep thinking about the Town Meeting Song from Nightmare Before Xmas, with Jack trying to describe WWII mechanics to an audience used to robots and lasers and terrorists and Wolfenstein Magic stuff, but I'm sure there's another song even more suited to this theme. youtube.com/watch?v=jAHXzDUT9hs
Also, We've got musicals like Heathers and Spamalot that are just untouched. Spamalot's got a few, like "You won't succeed on Broadway if you don't have any Jews" and "I am not dead yet," that are perfect for parody.
If they weren't so fucking hasty and posted it on YT it would have gotten in the fucking musical.
John Gutierrez
Because it's a weak too early for anything to actually be done.
Josiah Stewart
Afraid it was doomed from the start. The song was used way back in Musical 1, for the much inferior "Pure Waifu". All it could've hoped for was a DLC release.
David Lopez
What is this thread and wasn't one of that guy's songs in GTA IV?
James Sullivan
this is one of the most autistic things Sup Forums has ever done and i don't know why the mods continue to allow it. other websites fucking laugh at us for this high tier cringeworthy shit.
Ryder Young
Because you fedorable faggots are so creative and funny. Let's go reddit see you next year!! XD
Christian Wilson
Why do you care what other sites think? Sup Forums's always been autistic.
Cooper Carter
How to detect Reddit
>acts in a post-ironic manner >falls for the "Sup Forums hates fun" meme >uses the word 'cringe' >only turned up on Sup Forums in the past year and has no idea what the Sup Forums musical is >labels things autism while owning his own Minecraft server >shitposts because he thinks that's "just what Sup Forumsirgins do" >ironic shitposts >shitposts
Colton Powell
Oh well, then nothing of value was lost, relatively speaking
>caring about what reddit, tumblr,twitter or facebook think You should disregard the opinions of those shitholes in first place.
James James
>Why do you care what other sites think? because Sup Forums was the #1 creator of original content on the entire internet for a very long time, but now content creators stay away from this place because we are very much in the public eye, and people laugh at us for autistic nonsense like fedora wearing neckbeards badly trying to sing. >Sup Forums's always been autistic wrong, it wasn't until after habbo when millions of newfag immigrants from reddit etc. showed up. Pic related, original content from 2005 Sup Forums before we were tainted by autistic newfaggotry.
Juan Bell
>other websites fucking laugh at us for this high tier cringeworthy shit. post literally one example
Logan Sullivan
We should do So Need a Cute Girl by Chris Chan
Isaiah Fisher
Your entire post is wrong. Every single thing in your post is factually incorrect and makes you look like a jackass of elephantine proportions.
Don't pretend that you know fuck all about this website, or this board.
>content creators
My sides.
Austin Scott
>trying to bait me into going to one of those sites, so you can dismiss everything i say with >visiting [website] "fuck off newfag" your next trick will be to claim it's false because I haven't provided an example. Why don't YOU go to one of those sites and see for yourself?
Joseph Wood
I'm fairly sure that there's been a dearth of content because people come out of the woodwork and call them faggots for posting something that requires either brevity or wit, rather than them fleeing because Sup Forums's posts are put on facebook and other normie sites.
And I'd argue that that comic in itself is in fact autism of its own sort.
Jackson James
>User was automatically filtered for a banned word or phrase. Loving every laugh, this reddit lingo filter is the tops.
Chase Kelly
>calling a 3AB comic "autism" you're a gigantic newfag and don't even know who 3 Angled Blue is.
Dominic Turner
What are you blathering about?
Isaiah Reed
>gets filtered >still replying
Sebastian Parker
>your next trick will be to claim it's false because I haven't provided an example.
Fucking psychic over here, lads. Spot on.
Tell me, if you never go to these sites, then how do you presume to know what they think of the musical?
Ryder Murphy
oh i dont know because of all the shit crossposted here by actual retards who frequent those sites, just wait until after this year's musical comes out
Josiah Howard
Planning on writing a parody of Noodles Can't Be Beat where it's neo-Sup Forums vs Sup Forums but I may need help writing it.
Caleb Perez
...
Julian Jackson
You know you could just win the argument by googling shit and posting an example. Why don't you just do it?
Angel Peterson
Where in my post did I say I didn't know who it was by? No reason to resort to ad hominem mate, if you're arguing that any and all creativity can't be joked about with the old autism meme then fair enough, but I wouldn't say that comics are somehow immune when music isn't.
Dylan Cox
everyone who participates in this shit is not not Sup Forums. it is 100% reddit and consumed by redditors
Easton Richardson
>yeah just put these cancerous websites in your history, a personal stain that you can never ever remove I take pride in having never once visited, reddit, tumblr, normalfagbook, etc. and I'm not going to start now. You people go there on a daily basis, so you can do your own research
Colton Adams
Wow it's already been a year? This year's kinda been shit for Sup Forums though, we haven't had a good meme since last year's "half an a press" shit.
And PU Odyssey now has comments disabled and itlsnt available in my country apparently wtf
Samuel Rodriguez
Why do you hate fun so much?
Gavin Adams
>comments disabled and itlsnt available in my country apparently wtf Now you fucked up, since it works just fine for me in the USA, revealing that you don't live in the USA. Sup Forums is for Americans only, good riddance third world scum.
Luis Phillips
it's not fun, it's literally autistic reddit memes. >first one started in 2013, SEVEN YEARS after habbo hotel, which is when reddit first showed up >HURR ITS NOT REDDIT STFU IT'S Sup Forums CULTURE Nah.
Jonathan Edwards
I don't live in the third world you faggot
It's even worse, I'm a bong. Pls take me I don't wanna live in this cucked country anymore
Nolan Sanchez
>I derive self-respect based on the websites I visit.
This is just a bit sad now, tbqh. Literally, just post one example. I'm googling it myself, but can't seem to find one.
Adrian Watson
WORST ENDING EVER
That shit alone dropped SS2 from 10/10 to 8/10 for me
Caleb Nelson
>I know that Reddit and other such sites are talking about us insulting this whole thing >OK Prove it >Heh no way fag I don't visit these sites despite claiming I know what they're talking about
Just fuck off already
Back on the subject of the musical has anyone ever made a song based on the opening song to Road to El Dorado
Think it'd be a great way to start off the entire thing.
Henry Bailey
>t. started posting on 2016 and talks shit after reading know your meme
Make it less obvious next time, how embarassing
Jonathan Cox
Shh, don't scare him off, he's bumping the thread with free replies
Nathaniel Martinez
>2016 yeah, it's a little bit before that.... lol
Elijah Stewart
I know the feel m80, take heart that we don't get our shit wrecked by the weather as often.
If you're saying that the downfall of Sup Forums was in 2006 and anything that's happened thereafter is tainted by or wholly reddit, what the fuck could possibly left that drives you here still after a decade?
Isaiah Edwards
>which is when Reddit first showed up
Do you know I know you're Reddit? There wasn't even a Reddit in 2006. The first Redditors first started coming here in 2011.
Lincoln Perez
>Sup Forums became reddit three years after creation >Sup Forums is 13 years old I think the Sup Forums you claim to represent never existed.
You're calling me a newfag for not knowing when Reddit was founded? I hadn't even heard of it until Portal 2 and bronies became a thing on Sup Forums for a brief window back in 2011 and Redditor shitposting went off the scale.
I think you're just pretending to be retarded.
I don't think the intro has been done, but It's Tough To Be The Press is fucking great.
Zachary Williams
Lurk moar newfag
Kayden Anderson
>hadn't even heard of it until Portal 2 so you are a newfag, because they were in the habbo raids, which you would have known if you were on literally ANY board in 2006.
Josiah Cruz
>so you are a newfag, because they were in the habbo raids, which you would have known if you were on literally ANY board in 2006.
Reddit had absolutely nothing to do with the Habbo Hotel raids. Do you know how I know? It's because I was on Habbo Hotel at the time.
Trying to pretend that Reddit was part of the Sup Forums raids doesn't even make any sense. What would drive you to do that?
Leo Parker
There was no ZTD-related song last year, and although it's too late now, I feel compelled to change that.
