Soloman Tump Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Hello With the next issue of my music zine I want to bundle with a 3" CD of short experimental electronic music tracks. A 3" disc comfortably holds 21 minutes of music, so I am hoping to fill this with around 7 to 10 tracks, or however it pans out. Music must be new and not currently featured commercially elsewhere. Artists will be fully credited - please supply me with short artist bio / photo / links / inspiration for the track (details as below...) Featured artists will receive a copy of the zine and disc. I will probably also start a bandcamp page allowing a download of the compilation for each zine reader, plus maybe some additional tracks that do not fit on the disc if I like them The scope for the compilation is:- Using something you already own in a new way. So I want to encourage experimentation / upcycling of maybe old hardware / software or something you have possibly not linked together before. Think outside the box. Or maybe something new for you - ever tried vocals? No? Now is your chance. Always fancied sticking a contact mic on your boiler pipes? Do it. Field recordings from a place you are just visiting for the first time. YES please. A genre / style you have not attempted before.... Absolutely no rush (yet) - probably looking at November or whenever it is finished.... Please try and keep the track short - 2 or 3 minutes would be ideal (or less....) PM me or discuss here if you are interested please. please dropbox tracks and send me info zine@snarerush.co.uk All contributions welcome and considered on their individual merits / ideas. Cheers peeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braintree Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I can do one. Probably combining some techniques and instruments I hadn't put together before. I haven't heard anyone do this kind of thing before, so I want to give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soloman Tump Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 Had a number of submissions already, all good sounds. No deadline yet but the sooner the better. I will announce a definite deadline when work on the accompanying zine is pushing on. I know some (myself included) work better to a date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soloman Tump Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 Thanks! No rush yet (and no pun intended....) I just know how these things get forgotten.... Im only about 40% into getting stuff together for the zine and I always overrun on my deadlines, but continual reminders is the only way for me to get things done especially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon Sumbitches Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I've got a track in the works for this, it just needs finishing off! Not sure whether it'll be up to compilation standard but having an end goal like this is actually a great kick up the arse in terms of getting things done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braintree Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Going to start working on this next week. Just moved the studio into a new space and need to get things sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been eyeing this thread and the WATMM compilation one for weeks now, but monitor troubles have been keeping me from really committing to it.
