2nd Album info:
>What is this, though?
The 2nd /MLP/ Plays album, that’s what! Following the success of the first one, we decided that the world needs another. Like before, it will be a compilation album from the musicians of /mlp/. There is no specific genre that has to be adhered to, but there will be more guidelines to follow this time.
>What are the guidelines?
This time around, it’s been decided that the music for this album has to be pony related. “But what what does that mean!?” you may be wondering. Well, here is what we mean:
Songs need to be original or redone covers based off of the below conditions. It may be but is not limited to:
•Cover/remix of the music from the show.
•An original that is based off of a riff/motif/recognizable theme from the show
•Original piece that uses samples from the show (probably more than just one gasp at the end. Should really be part of the song)
•Original songs with pony related lyrics, like "Waifu Blues" or "All Ponies Must Be Perfect" from the last album.
•Redoing the music and lyrics to be pony related. Mr. Bones's Wild Ride (Hotel California Parody) from the last album is a good example.
•Includes /mlp/ related maymays/jokes/culture.
•No singing over instrumentals of other artists’ songs. "I Am Awesome" is an example. It would, however, be OK if the instrumental was redone.

How's Streets coming along? Can I help somehow?
I hope Charx is making headway with his Winter Wrap Up chiptune jazz cover.
Someone else said they had three songs in the works...?
hell yeah

Streets has been going. Goons try and work on it some more tonight. I am going to need you to re-record your harmonica eventually.
>>28534992
Nice thread, it would be quite sad if someone would post someponieshere...
Also, Weimtime, are you here? I have a couple of questions for you.
So I have an idea to create a youtube channel called "knifed pony"
Where we basically make simplistic misterdavie style animations synced to bass heavy techno.
First official bump of this thread
And this is the second
whoo it's back
HHHHHHAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTSSSSSSSS
Little do most people know, FL studio comes with a pretty good default hat sample (IF YOU DO 2 THINGS)
1. assign the hat to a free mixer track and then add EQUO. This has an automatic equilizer analyse button that you tap on the peak of the note. This will automatically subtractivally equalize the sample.
2. Add Maximus and then cut of everything under 10k hz. You can add distortion if you like by barely moving the master threshhold knob to the left and then raising the master post gain.
DON'T FORGET TO LOWER THE MASTER AMPLITUDE IN THE FL STUDIO MIXER

nice
Been working on Streets today. Will post what I have done tomorrow. Mainly, now, we gotta come up with the chorus.
tfw wrote a bunch of short song ideas for the album but can't finish the song beyond the one idea.

can you post/describe some of your ideas?
>>28542539
nice

>Goons try and work on itWhat a disparaging way of talking about your underlings!
Right, I'll stand by with the harmonica if I can't get it recorded before you need it.

>Where we basically make simplistic misterdavie style animations synced to bass heavy techno
>misterdavie style animations
You mean like https://www.youtube.com/embed/EUcM1-YZNAU
I'll assume that Mister Davie had more stuff on his channel but that one video is the sole one on his channel.
>bass heavy techno
Why?
I mean, it seems like a simple idea but I have difficulty doing stuff for myself.
I don't have the software for animations. I couldn't draw animations. Do you have a way to convert from animation to video (e.g: .swf to .mp4)?
Can I bump the thread?

4chan birthday bump!
Nine days 'til MLP birthday.
Ok, new streets update:
>https://clyp.it/ghmxm5il
Ok, so the structure so far is:
:00 intro
:23 Verse (singing)
:43 Pre-chrous (maybe singing)
The chorus will go after this, but I don't have anything written for it yet. I'm thinking some harmonica will go there, maybe light overdriven guitar.
Speaking of which, Harmonica, can you play what you did on the first version at 43sec?
>>28543747
You know, I really should share the little short ideas I came up with you guys. Better than just having them sit in my DAW collecting dust because I can't come up with anything else for them.
