As I suggested in the DQN ELECTRONICS VOL 2010 album thread, let's make our own VIP Quality music release!
Any contribution is welcome, so long as it is VIP Quality, and created for this project. Multiple contributions are obviously welcome too.
Once we have enough tracks, or once everyone has lost interest, and no later than in exactly four months (a deadline will keep us motivated), we will distribute by torrent and direct download.
To contribute music or artwork you can post your work in this thread, or to keep it secret until the day of release, you can send it to dqn.dqn.lol@gmail.com .
We can use this thread to discuss what to do, what title we want to use, plan collaborations, etc.
In case we need a wiki, let's put our stuff here: http://tanasinn.info/wiki/Homegrown_VIPtronic_Album
To prove that I'll be somewhat reliable, I am the guy who packaged Title, who harassed the participants to send in their tracks, and who did the worst songs on it: rest assured that unless nobody participates, something will eventually get released.
Fapis would be nice considering the DQN albums are all there too.
Ahh I can't believe I totally missed this collaboration! The result was awesome, and I hope there's another album so I can contribute something
>>134
Or you can just release your stuff here in this thread: http://img.secretareaofvipquality.net/res/5967.html
Or you can just put together a self-released EP.
I had a similar "when's the next one" reaction from a participant in the mail.
Now that we know that there's some eager talent around, maybe we could make this a semi-regular thing, but I'm afraid people might get bored of it very quickly... I dunno, what do you VIPPERs think?
Considering it took 4 months to put this one together, it's not like it's going to be very often that we release one. I say very yes.
I think semi-regular releases would be cool. I hope it wouldn't be too much trouble for GENOCIDE BY BOOMERANGS.
For anybody who plays Stepmania here, I have made a simfile for the guided tour of the tanasinn chamber. I recommend 2x or 3x, as it is an xmod file.
http://www.mediafire.com/?zzymyofmgfo
As this simfile attempts to be the closest thing humanly possible to making steps for tanasinn, only VIPPERS with extreme levels of tanasinn will be able to pass this. I would suggest FailOff.
> I hope it wouldn't be too much trouble for GENOCIDE BY BOOMERANGS.
It wouldn't (not that there's any particular need for me to be the organizer). So, should we get ready for FOUR MORE MONTHS?
>>139
Oh god lol http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/3307/53296697.png
Well, since there is some interest, let's do it again the same way!
Let's try to do a new album for sometime between April 1st and May 1st.
If we're considering making it a series like DQN ELECTRONICS, we could come up with something to tack on the beginning or end of "Homegrown VIPtronic Album", like "Another Homegrown VIPtronic Album".
...
I don't know, I'd like to keep the word "VIPtronic" somehow. It's a cool word.
I just realized that I forgot to include a ringtone that was posted only on the wiki. Apoligies to Acostoss.
My friend and I are planning on getting together a track. It will be simple, and it may not even be good...
But it's the thought that counts, right?
I suspect I have mistagged a lot of things and made a lot of mistakes by trying to be "helpful": I apologize to anyone who got his artist name retagged to VIPPER if I shouldn't have.
So please include with your submissions all the following so that I won't get stuff wrong again:
> A simple message indicating that your post is indeed a submission of your original content to the album
> How the track title must appear in the release
> Which artist name must be used. "VIPPER" is the default choice for anonymous submissions.
>>144
Of course, the barrier to entry is just meant to avoid having the "these are eight minutes filled with two chords and a drum loop" kind of submissions. Ideally everything sent gets included.
>>145
I don't plan on it being much longer than a minute, so hopefully it will get accepted!
I updated the wiki page.
(sage not used because it might be helpful.)
>>142
Maybe we could continue the series with different adjectives than Homegrown then.
Stonethrown?
OVERGROWN
Glassblown.
Well anyway, I made a song for this already. It's incredibly obnoxious, but somehow catchy. I tried to make it simulate the rush you get when you are VIPPING...or perhaps a shot of caffeine in the morning. Or both.
http://www.djzovi.com/zovi/THIS%20SONG%20IS%20INCREDIBLY%20OBNOXIOUS.mp3
I am going to try to compose a piece of "music" for this, and it will be the first time in my life I do that!
>>155
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING OBNOXIOUS ABOUT IT!!

We're making unhelpful software recommendations on the wiki if you care: http://tanasinn.info/wiki/VIP_music_software . Good luck!
Excellent. Be prepared to hear awesome shit-tastic music from yours truly!
I couldn't stop fucking around with 'Audiotool', pretty impressive for something built in flash.
I just got into tracking and I'm having a blast! ^O^
Well I made this for my girlfriend but I think VIPPER should hear it as well.

ƒ_ƒaƒNƒ‹‚ÌVIP“`à - VIPPER - Viptronic 2
Daddycool no VIP Densetsu was a game released in 1985, only available in Korea for the all-original Samsung-Nida Entertainment System. It sold exactly one copy, mostly because the game cost more than most Koreans make in a lifetime, and could only be paid for in VIPCOINS, which weren't available in Korea until the mid-'90s. The plot involved Daddycool on his quest to found the Secret Area of VIP Quality, facing enemies such as horses and JEWS, while rescuing friendly lumberjacks in each level.
This is the title screen and first level music.
Now hopefully I don't screw up this post again.
>>168
Sure, what the fuck, I'll call it a submission. The metadata is correct.
I'm working on a submission as well. Here's hoping I actually finish it before the album fills up.
I'm probably going to submit something better than that "incredibly obnoxious" song. Probably like...actual trancecore. I'll probably end up making it next week sometime....
If we get overenthusiastic we can change the deadline anyway
I like the deadline at the moment, at least for myself. As I have never actually made music before and have no talent whatsoever, it gives me enough time to figure out how to use software and be able to maybe produce something decent by the time we put the album together.
Another submission?! Yes! Sorry if I'm becoming a nuisance.
evelyn - It's Fucking Cold In Russia (seriously)
http://www.mediafire.com/?nzjqujjgmgb
I was randomly watching videos on youtube then suddenly this happened
VIPPERsaurus flex - John Goodman really likes triangles
http://www.sendspace.com/file/o8klhv
>>178
The tags on the mp3 itself say it's VIPPER - John Goodman really loves triangles. Which is more correct?
I was originally just gonna be VIPPER but I came up with VIPPERsaurus flex as I was posting that so go with that.
This album looks like it's going to have even more VIP quality than the last one!
So I sent this into Genocide for a "secret" submission but screw it, I'll just post it here too. It's a gabber/trancecore song, and not absolute shit like ARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARAGI-SAN or that other song I submitted earlier for the second one that I am now retracting due to stupidity.
DJ Zovi - D A D D Y C O R E
http://www.djzovi.com/zovi/daddycore-v1.mp3
...I figured out it also sounds good as a nearly-10-minute-long 135 BPM tech house track (genre?) of sorts. Still 320 CBR mp3 so it's a hefty 23 MB. Whatever.
http://www.djzovi.com/zovi/daddytech.mp3
Also this ISN'T A SUBMISSION it's just something extra~
...this is moving too far down the thread list. Needs a bump, even if this is a triple post.
Anyways, I made another song. This'll be my last submission to this VIPtronic album I suppose. It's splittercore.
DJ Zovi - Bu-n Like a VIPPER (MIKU SPLITTERCORE MIX)
http://www.djzovi.com/zovi/bu-nlikeavipper-v2.mp3
I noticed this two. Luckily I have a song I made recently and a collaboration I did ages ago but both parties completely forgot about which I can post tomorrow.
But for now, bed!
A day late but here they are:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/wnm281
http://www.sendspace.com/file/9f9jic
I have a submission. It's another minimalist thing made with LMMS.
http://www.mediafire.com/?3uygj03tyyz
Is this still going?
It better be. If Genocide doesn't want to continue it, I'll produce myself unless someone better suited wants to. I want to see this happen because people have submitted cool VIP music already and I'd hate to see it go to waste.
Well, I'm always around, but I think I won't be able to submit anything if we stick with the May 1st deadline.
We can either have me package what we have for May 1st, wait about one more month for submissions (including mine-sorry), or have someone else take over packaging responsibility this time around. What do you guys prefer?
Taken that a June 1st release would be exactly half a year after our last release, it would actually make a lot more sense. I don't mind waiting, as long as it does in fact get packaged.
If anybody minds the wait I'll reconsider, but otherwise I think having these two months instead of one will allow us to make have an album-length and -quality release. As I'm sure I've said earlier, you guys should feel free to take over the project if you don't like how I manage (or in this case, do not) things or if you suspect I have gone AWOL (not that I plan to).
sorry for the involuntary bump.
I approve of the June release.
I'll try to give some of the several tracks I've been working on before May 1st.
BENOIST‚Å‚·B
I also approve of the June release. Hopefully I will stop aborting tracks and finish one by then.
I've got some things I'm working on that probably would be fitted to work out on June a bit easier.
lol locked groove
I have a MIDI that I can't seem to convert to mp3 without major issues. I hope some good soul can help me, else I'm going to upload it "as is" and it will be up to the Album Maker to convert it the right way m(_ _)m
Audacity?
Or how about http://www.hamienet.com/midi2mp3 ?
>>199
How should the metadata be formatted ?
Trackname: jewslockedgroove
Artist: BENOIST
If you don't reply, I'll assume the title is meant to be changed to "JEWS (locked groove)"
>>201
Same thing. Please confirm:
Trackname: The Ghost of Cubone's Mother
Artist: Captain Carlin
>>202
Upload it or e-mail it to me and I'll run it through my best sound sources.
>>204
I sent the midi to you.
We're gonna have a few songs tying into a cars/hitting the road/racing theme, and also some in a retro videogames theme.
(Partly by my fault in both cases, actually)
Should we acknowledge either? Both? None? And in any case, a better idea than "VIPTRONIC 2" or the titles that were recommended months ago without bringing many enthusiastic reactions?
Reminder: It is not too late to participate.
See >>141 for the rules and details.
Please try to send your submissions before May 27th. The project will be released on June 1st as a torrent, mediafire/rapidshare download, and long-term direct download mirror.

I'll have to ask the usual questions:
>>210-213
I kinda like most of these, no real favorite. Other opinions/ideas?
Has anyone done VIPPERTRONIK SUPERSONIK yet?
err, there was an Elektronik Supersonik ringtone on COOL FREE RINGTONES, but that's about it for things that have to do with VIP and that song in this project.
>>213
I third these, but would like to combine two of them, like this:
Tabitha "Tablecat" Catherine's Super Off-Table Formula VIP
Something I've been working on off-and-on for a while:
http://img.secretareaofvipquality.net/src/hillbillyhellhole.zip
I have made a cover with >>219's title, since everybody seems to like it (hosting on a separate server to avoid "spoiling" VIPPERs who don't want to follow the project until it's done)
http://imgur.com/z9DP9.jpg
What do you think?
Neither the title nor the cover are frozen, of course. If you have a better idea or something better to offer, let us know ASAP.
>>221
Please confirm the formatting of the tags
Track name: Hillbilly Hellhole(Landbads Mix)
Artist name: Michigan D. Ghost
>>222
That'll work. I'll see what I can make with a competent music-making program if I have time as well.
>>222
Very nice.
Even though I'm tempted, I'll leave D A D D Y C O R E as my only submission, seeing that it's like 7 minutes long.
If I'm not too tired tonight I'm thinking of doing a track for this.
Then again, I've been saying that since the first DQN Electronics.
>>227
:3
But yes, again it did not happen. I feel asleep and the producer was out.
But it shall, it shall. I'm just always worried about how well it will mesh with the other tracks on the album considering I make music "professionally" and it will probably sound way different than everything else and possibly not as QUALITY if you know what i'm sayin.
>>228
How many years of experience do you have? I just recently started messing around with trackers and synths, and I'd like to do something for the next album.
I play cello; but when it comes to composing... how do you learn that?
>>229
You keep making tracks and trashing them until you make one that's acceptable.
