@QrMOMOKA
world peace kinda reminds me of the Olympics o_o

I just thought of something.
Smiling has it's title probably because "Nico Nico Douga" means "smiley videos"

so should we do something like that with ours?
YOUtube
YOU
Project to YOU
Anata ni, Project

or something....not sure if that's correct grammatically or meaning wise

by Guest Sun Dec 27, 2009 4:29 pm

@irO
I like ''Project to YOU'' :]

I agree with Luna, that sounds pretty good. (I never really thought about why Smiling has its title; you're really smart, heh.)

Man, irO, just be this group's person who creates all the ideas, why don't you, hahaha.

by Kumbancha Sun Dec 27, 2009 6:45 pm

I love this idea, creating a song is hard but if we all cooperate it will be easier, Hopefully we can make something, I can´t unfortunately play any instruments but my voice, I can help lyrics wise though, so yeah, I´d love to help in any way possible

XD
you're so nice...
i really like "Smiling" and a collab project between everyone here recreates the homey-ness ^^, which is why i'm going to pour a lot of my energy into this
okay we have to consider a lot, like
fast/slow paced?
genre of song?
number of singers?
structure of song?

c'mon budding song writers we need you in here!!!

by ChoAkkar ♥ Sun Dec 27, 2009 7:20 pm

For the pace, I wonder; if it's fine by fast. xD Because happy songs are usually fast-paced. :3

Genre... .. We all vote. xD

Number of singers.. OKAY, whoever wants to sing, raise up your hand!

That... I'm not sure...

by joakkar Sun Dec 27, 2009 7:30 pm

it should be fast pace since a slow pace would mean less people singing in it if we want solos like in smiling.

As to the genre of the song I guess we're kinda limited to non-electric instruments so it would be just acoustics so far.

Structure of the song? uhmmm well we have to find a way to keep a good structure between the verses in different languages and the choruses

by irO Sun Dec 27, 2009 7:53 pm

ok so far:
fast paced song

i doubt the number of singers is going to be a low number @_@

do we have any MAC users in here?
with GarageBand we're not limited as much by the instrument choice...
i think if we get the scores together i can ask my brother for his macbook....
but chances of that are dangerously low

by **JinSeng** Sun Dec 27, 2009 8:07 pm

I think I might invite a good friend from another forum who enjoys composing music to see if would like to help out.

by Elianti Sun Dec 27, 2009 8:35 pm

I love irO's idea and song title~ I wish I could help in the instrument department, but I don't have skillz.. at all. D: I guess I can help with lyrics? Although I've never done anything like that before.. I want to sing. XD

Yes, a fast paced song would be better since slow songs tend to be on the somber side.. plus we want to be happy because we are celebrating our awesome YT Chorus community. =DD

I agree we are a bit short on instruments, so acoustic would be best.. maybe a keyboardist could inject some electric/techno-yness into the song...?? I'm not a musician, though. I'm clueless. XD

'Smiling' had ~29 singers, so I think the maximum number of singers should be capped at ~25-30 singers, and the minimum should be ~20 singers. We want to give the impression of a large, but supportive community. If we have a lot of singers, we can always make more than one version. It would be a lot of work, but the end result would be epic. ^^

As for the structure, I guess the beginning should be in English, and the chorus should be in English or mostly in English. Japanese should be the next prominent language after English, since most of us cover Japanese songs. All of the other languages should have lines all throughout the rest of the song.. I wish I could help more with this part, but I can only speak and write English.. I can't make lyrics in other languages, but I guess I can sing in Tagalog?

by irO Sun Dec 27, 2009 8:42 pm

@Elianti

ELIIIIII *shot*

i like the "more than one version" idea
we can do like different styles/genres

but first off
we need an ORIGINAL version before we can make different versions

by ChoAkkar ♥ Sun Dec 27, 2009 8:44 pm

I have LMMS to help with the composing. ~~Somewhat lame, don't you guys think?~~

But I have heard of them nicely-composed electronic sounds made from the program, so.. :D

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 1:55 am

Let's make something HARDCOOREEEEE YEAAAAH *bows*

Yeah, slow song, I agree xD
I think that it would be REALLY COOL if we take from reference to do something ''electric'' from P.·.Rhthmatiq (I mean, they are awesome...)
(For those who don't know them, this is my favourite song from them:
)

Of course this is a reference if we do something electric ^^
Also, I can play a bit with FL Studio...

by Caramel Mon Dec 28, 2009 2:55 am

I want in too if that's still possible~!
I can't help with much though... I only know how to sing and draw..

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 3:34 am

@chou.
I downloaded LMMS, it's pretty good (I think)....
I'm trying to do something...xD

by ChoAkkar ♥ Mon Dec 28, 2009 3:43 am

Actually, I have to make a soundtrack for my RP's game with it, I just need to confirm with my crew what genre haha. Well, it took myself a while because mine was installed in Japanese. I'm lucky almost everything was in Kana.

by Elianti Mon Dec 28, 2009 3:51 am

@ irO: irOOO~ I actually meant having a different group of singers singing the same song, but I guess different versions of the song would be fine too after we make the original version..

@ chou.: I heard some of the songs made with the program.. pretty cool. ^^ I downloaded it, but I don't understand it.. o.o

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 3:52 am

@Elianti
I downloaded the program 10 minutes ago and I know how it works, it's not that hard, but it has a lot of options xD

by ChoAkkar ♥ Mon Dec 28, 2009 3:54 am

@Elianti Yes, there are a lot of things you can play around. I figured it out the next day because the day I downloaded it I didn't have much time to play around with it afterwards. It's rather easy, you see. ^^

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 4:18 am

Gaaah...this needs a lot of patience and I'm not inspired...

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 4:50 am

I can mabye help with the lyrics. I know swedish and I'm pretty good at japanese too.

I think that many people are willing to be in this project, so my idea is that all people who can sing well are welcome to sing in the last chorus like the grand finale! That'll be awesome!
And some choosen people will sing as the main singers with solos and everything. How do that sound?

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 4:57 am

@SUDDI
I like it, but we are A LOT of people xD

by QrMOMOKA Mon Dec 28, 2009 11:42 am

I can't help with the instruments.. though i have vocaloid2 Miku, and the Kagamines.
That means if we want them in our chorus too, i can make them sing. But they'll sound a bit retarded when singing in english..^^;;

by Guest Mon Dec 28, 2009 11:54 am

@QrMOMOKA
Yeah, I have Vocaloid too (Kagamines and Luka), maybe we can write just verses in japanese for them...

by QrMOMOKA Mon Dec 28, 2009 11:58 am

@Luna
yeah! My japanese isn't that good though.. like, i can read and play games and watch anime.. but can't write anything that sounds "pretty", if that's fine..
And Luka'd be able to sing in english.. with a weird accent lol.
