CB Idol, Let's get the ball rolling! ;)

Finally, we're ready to start the new round of CB Idol! For those who don't remember or weren't around last time, we had a lot of great participants and hopefully this time will be even better. Those who have expressed interest in the topic in feedback will be sent PMs to let them know this has been posted, and to anyone else who might be interested, please go ahead and send in your submissions! The more the merrier. _smile.gif

Submissions

1. Maggie (cup noodles) 2. Jane (My Cinderella.) 3. Reili (ai + you) 4. br34ker4lyfe 5. Anastasia (a beautiful nothing) 6. Danielle (danifbble) 7. Linda (dreamerOi)8. Kim (Days Nearly Over)
  • Sway by Michael Buble
9. Jelyn (juh-leen ) 10. Aimee (stolen)
    11. (gemulon)
      11. Alysa (alysaphobia)
        -------------------------------------------------------------

        Rules

        How it Works:[list]
      • This being the preliminary round, members who are interested send in a sample recording.
      • Before the submission deadline has passed, the judges will determine the number of participants for the first official round. Out of the submissions, we will choose the best in order to fill those spots.
      • Each round, based on community feedback and judges' opinions, a participant will be eliminated from the competition until only one is left, our CB Idol. _smile.gif
      Submission Guidelines:
      • Each submission should be at least 30 seconds long.
      • Use only your own voice - no background vocals or harmony.
      • Background music is allowed and recommended. If you don't know where to get accompaniment tracks for your songs, I suggest searching for a midi file - these can be easily found and are usually free.
      • Submission must be your own and must be something that was not previously posted elsewhere.
      While we're still just starting CBI2, any suggestions (themes, judging, or otherwise) can be sent to Libertie, Arjuna Capulong, or tic tac. Please send in your submissions by Saturday, May 5th. Good luck!

      (By the way, to those who have asked about why my entries from CBI1 have disappeared, they've been rehosted. You can now find them here.)

      I would attempt to enter, but I don't know how to go about recording myself and whatnot. Not to brag, but I am actutally pretty good at singing. So if I may still submit or if someone can give me some info on how to record myself [?] I would be very thankful.

      ^ If you've got a mic, just download some recording software like Audacity (which is free) or use the built-in windows sound recorder (you're on windows?).

      If not, you can pick one up relatively cheap at any store that sells electronics. Before I had a mic, I used the video recording feature on my cell phone to make my CB Idol recordings last time, so that's also an idea.

      Then all you need is a place to host it. A lot of people are using putfile, but you can look around for any free sound file hosting site.

      okay, i decided to do another song.
      extraordinary- mandy moore.
      i re-recorded mostly because my other recording had more instrumentals than my voice. and also, i wanted to be critiqed, too. whistling.gif

      I didn't insert the echo, our computer is out in an open space and the microphone picks up echoes. pinch.gif

      I might try re-recording with an in built microphone on a laptop in future rounds.
