Wasn't the 11th the first day? Well, for me the 12th as I was working, but I had exactly 3 days to get mine done as I had to leave the 14th(yesterday). So if I didn't get it in by then I wouldn't be in it at all.I'm actually pretty happy with what I was able to get down in the time I had, so it works for me. I don't know if it's going to stand up to what others will be able to accomplish with more time, but we'll see.

"Translated to battle terms"

7 days is for pussies. Real producers finish in less than half that time.

Yea, I can understand that. Honestly, that's usually how it goes for me. This time around though I actually started kicking around ideas in my head before the actual contest started. So when I actually sat down to do something I had some ideas to work with. Usually I just sit down with a blank slate and try to come up with stuff. Spend a lot of time just banging away at random stuff to see where it goes just to end up deleting it all after a few hours.

the basic arrangment took me 8 hours then it was purely about layering up on my ideas,the mix sounds good on my ipod and my car so i sent it over,it come together so quick because i enjoyed how i went about making it sorry if this annoys you but i am awash with ideas don't blame me my imagination did it lol!!!

to make things short: i started off with a piano sample that i turned into a nice atmospheric pad with guitar rig and then built a simple drumloop. then i spent tons of time polishing the drumsounds, get a friend to record vocals for me and suddenly i notice that i have NO melody and bassline whatsoever, and that i spent 2 days perfecting a drumloop that was just supposed to be a placeholder. yesterday i sat 4 hours straight in front of it trying to make a lead synth or at least a bassline that's beyond 4 notes in 4 bars on repeat. i then gave up when i noticed that i almost broke my nanokontrol by twisting the knobs too hard because i was so pissed off

so either i'll pull a last minute WIP made in 2 hours like last time or man up and admit defeat.
(i can send you the thing via PM if you want, you'll understand then )

Is it a par to ask to extend the deadline to sat evening, I dunno if I can get something done tonight or tomorrow.
