i'm asking cause most of the stuff i write is shorter than that and i can see how this could end up in me just copy/pasting the last 32 bars of my track just to be within the time limit (yes i'm lame)
and also because i feel the longer the tracks the more likely it is that people won't listen to them all and just skip through which is not desirable
why not just push the "no rules" attitude into the red and say "no rules at all" ?
just my 2cts, imho and whatnot
yeah im with this guy.
(at least take it down to 3 minutes.)

Should just be a ceiling, so people aren't turning in stale turd magna opera (look it up, jokes) that take 15 minutes to listen through. But if you can make a bomb track in 2 minutes, more power to you.

the point of 4mins...... think outside the box & change it up for abit!
If ya can't keep a listener entertained for 4mins... then ya need to have a rethink of why you're producing.
6mins max.... cause some people can go wayyyy overboard!

I can't keep a listener entertained for a bar, but I still don't need to rethink why I'm producing.

to be honest i'm less concerned about my ability to entertain the listener than i am about the really short attention span of the youtube generation
chea!

your worried about the youtube generation??
the ones that flick thru songs after a minute, listen to lo fi audio, download whatever they can, think about lady gaga etc. too much,
& think mt edan is the king of dubstep??
fuck them bro! unless ya wana just ride the moment....
actually... the songs that will keep their attention would be tracks that change up the style... the new britney spears track for instance!
Entertaining/performance is the name of the game niqqa! thats where the ching-$€¢£ is made in this industry!!

So uhh... I guess I got mixed up on the start date, do we start on the 11th, or submit on the 11th?
And because the only rule dictates length, am I to believe that we aren't going anonymous for this one?

start producing on the 11th at 23:59GMT,
& nah.... still guna be anonymous!
thats not really a rule, more apart of the culture around here.
for anyone wanting to know. I will put a link to my dropbox on here after we start, make sure ya label the tracks as private.... & only share em with me. If ya going down the rapidshare route... send me the link via PM.
just make sure ya do it by the cutoff date, which will be 23:59 18-03-11!
anything after this time & anything outside of the time limitations will NOT be included in the battle!
