「nostalgia chorus 」 auditions for vocalists, mixers, and EXPERIENCED animators ; OPEN. No deadline for now!

auditions for nostalgia chorus are now open and ready!



we are a vocaloid chorus who are accepting 13 people for now. we represent vocaloids, even if we don't sound like them. we sing with our NATURAL voices!

The open slots for members are the following;

HATSUNE MIKU : OPEN

KAGAMINE RIN : OPEN

KAGAMINE LEN : OPEN

KAITO : OPEN

MEIKO : OPEN

MEGURINE LUKA : OPEN

LILY : OPEN

MIKI : OPEN

PIKO UTATANE : OPEN

IROHA NEKOMURA : OPEN

YUKI KAAI : OPEN

KIYOTERU HIYAMA : OPEN.

(I have selfcasted as Gumi, and PLEASE don't ask for me to add any more Vocaloids to the list. I will ignore your request immediately.)

I will be judging harshly. Here's the rules~

1) please have a decent mic, and a pop filter is required! i don't want alot of major buzzing and background noises!

2) don't discourage other auditioners! i'll immediately ignore your audition.

3) no duets or choruses, i only want to hear your voice!

4) no TUNING. WE DON'T RELY ON TUNING. WE GO NATURAL. only a bit of reverb is allowed. no autotune at all...

5) be active. if you are not active, i will kick you out and replace you. no joke. we don't die in this chorus.

6) don't be intimidated by other auditioners. ive had this problem many times, and it doesn't help much. try even if you think you won't get in, who knows what the future holds?!

7) THE MAJOR ONE. DUE TO VOICES BLENDING AND HARMONIZING, I WANT TO SEE WHO'S VOICES BLEND THE BEST. THEREFORE, YOU'LL BE SINGING THE SONG OMOIDE KAKERA BY GUMI. THE WHOLE THING. ADD YOUR RAW VOCALS TO YOUR AUDITION AS WELL. IF YOU DON'T SEND THIS IN WITH YOUR AUDITION, YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.

Now to explain the mixers and animator auditions.

Mixer rules~

1) it MUST be your work.

2) you must have something better than audacity. I find using adobe audition easier. audacity never does the job like it should in my opinion.

3) be picky about timing, remember, you ARE mixing a chorus...

4) you must have your work in to me on time! and don't rush either. make sure it sounds pro.

Okay, onto animator auditions.

1) no WMM. just please, no. Only Adobe or Sony.

2) atleast have experience and make sure your work is clean and high quality!

3) you should get the work done on time, too, just like the mixer.

4) take your time, i know how hard animating is. we don't want a bad animation with good mixing, we want the whole package to make everything look great!

Thank you for auditioning. <3

Oof, I thought I would've gotten more auditions by now...

Okay, also a few more things I'd like to point out; we are NOT participating in vocafusion, and there is your normal audition and your RAW audition of omoide kakera. Thanks.

This sounds like a lot of fun; I'll audition. C:

(I probably won't make it, but... I'll try anyway! /determined)

Nickname/Alias: Ri
Female/Male: Female
First Vocaloid of Choice: Kaai Yuki
Second Vocaloid of Choice: SF-A2 Miki
Activeness, please explain: 10, because I rarely do anything productive when getting home from school besides go on the internet all day anyway. xD;;
Pronounciation: I'd say 9/10; I have most of it down, but I do make mistakes a bit.
Specialities: I'm good at learning songs pretty fast ( Omoide Kakera for instance-- I never even heard of this song until now. xD;; I think my vocals for it are okay though, especially for having just learned it ), and I'm also good at singing in higher ranged songs. I can also sing fast songs as well.
Weaknesses: I can't hit low notes all that easily. It's like... there's something about my voice that just really does not want me to hit low notes, ahaha;;

Auditions -

Senbonzakura [Music Box Version] - http://www.box.com/s/yy789amiigv46or6pt0s
Omoide Kakera [Raw] - http://www.box.com/s/n75id3dj4r0hc29zl065

( NOTE: For Omoide Kakera, there's a few notes that are really hard for me to reach-- the low notes in each verse. I... really messed up there, I'm sorry. I tried, but I just couldn't reach them. e.o However, I hope everything else is fine with it. xD;; )

Thanks for auditioning! :D

Vocalists:

Nickname/Alias: hope
Female/Male: female
First Vocaloid of Choice: Miku
Second Vocaloid of Choice: Luka. Or.. Rin. (seriously I don't know LOL)
Activeness, please explain: 9/10, unavailable only when I'm sick or some family outings.
Pronounciation: Japanese: 10/10, English: 10/10
Specialities: high notes, falsettos, high-pitched screams (not screamo, just pure screams), cute-sounding songs, fast songs, harmonies
Weaknesses: low notes. I'm 100% soprano..

Audition videos:
- Omoide Kakera raw (I timed it as the original, and there is no harmonies. I can add them if you want to.) http://www.box.com/s/m5l63rhv1e0949zlxvsi
- World Is Mine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCVeQBsoRt0
- Egomama https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KC6abBJ9zrc
- Leia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g2CKj29sKc

Just choose randomly if you don't allow multiple audition videos.

I recorded Omoide Kakera just one take (too lazy to re-record lol) so please pardon the bad-sounding low notes.. OTL It's kinda hard for me to sing them, but if I practice more, I think I can do it.
