Abadoss Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 CMC: Conceptual Music Competition This competition is based on the rules of the classic TOMC (Thematic Original Music Competition). The CMC (Conceptual Music Competition) is designed so that each participant enters a piece of music based on a set theme. The participants take the theme and interpret it as they will to come up with something that fits. Any style can work, as long as it portrays a sense of what the theme is. Feel free to be imaginative! Each successive theme will be chosen by the winner of the previous competition. For example, say the theme of the last competition, CMC 32, was "Malfunction" and the winner, Betty, submitted a piece that knocked the socks off of everyone, so she won. Betty then gets to decide the theme for CMC 33. This competition is open to registered members of the forums of OverClocked ReMix, VGMix, VGMusic, Gaming World, Young Composers, and GameDev. CMC 27: Return of the Pharaoh "The desert is unforgiving and its inhabitants are spread far and wide. They ache for unity and a chance to reclaim their former glory. Once, the Pharaoh held them together and reigned in power, but that was lost long ago. There is no leader to follow. One day, as if from a mirage, the mighty banner will appear once more on the horizon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendell.R.F.93 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I am opting myself out of this competition. I won't be finished with the piece in time and I don't want to rush it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abadoss Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 You still have two weeks left before it's due... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendell.R.F.93 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 With how many times I completely started over, I won't be done in 2 weeks. And , although this may be irrelevant to the majority, but I find it relevant to me at least. it does not seem like I am composing for my own joy in doing this competition. It seems that I am just doing it, which is definitely not what I intended to happen. I will continue to work on this piece, later on of course, but not right now, my mind is not in the right mindset.
