I was gonna tell you we don't need violin on all songs, but I see you already covered that. 

(is having more than one topic for the same collab allowed? I see nothing against it in the rules, but it could cause some clutter if everyone did it. If we can, let's keep this topic for band discussions only and the other as a public topic.)

Well, we could use a good graphic designer. DIY has too much work already to take the spot (imo) and I've never liked his album cover much tbh. I like the idea of using a photo or a collage style cover.

We might also need various kinds of banners. fg123 is good in that department, and has a instantly recognizable style - I've been considering him for a while.

Alright, cool.

I've seen your sig shop. It's pretty cool. I use GIMP though which is a more advanced editor with greater tools. We'll consider it.

Band members only should post here. Any entries for posts should not be posted here by outsiders, so as to keep this thread 'clean'. Please post in the audition forums if you want to here.

Might want to put that in main post ^^

And if you want to control who's posting here, why aren't you using an external forum? 

That's what Techno's forum is for...

We already discussed the inconveniences of using an external forum.

Please, this is exactly what I don't want. If you have any queries, please post in the forum I linked before.

Hey guys, here's some ideas for a song. I hope hpotter134 has a guitar capo available    The progression and arpeggios are pretty generic if you ask me, but it has lots of potential, especially with some deep, meaningful lyrics.´

I don't think it's even nearly time to use banners for a new album, especially considering we need to rerecord the vocals for the first 2 songs, and mix the whole thing again. What's wrong with hiring a separate graphic designer? We don't have a specialized one right now and all 3 people who offered for the spot are quite skilled on that.

Sorry, just heard your song idea and it sounds amazing! Has a melancholy feel to it like you say! 

I am working on quite a few other songs apart from Reload too that should be completed by around summer. I have over ten in mind, so I'll try to post the ones I can in Noteflight whenever possible.

Techno, I decided to upload a bit of one of the songs I mentioned I was working on earlier. Here it is.

It still needs a lot of work, but I shall be continuing work on that soon. Hope you like it! 

Sounds good, but some notes on the guitar are way out of the instrument's range (lowest note on the score is like the 3rd lowest note on a bass) and it'd be awkward to play with only C/G-shaped chords as implied by the score. But I suppose we'll take care of that later.

So I suppose the definite song list for Crimson Love is:
-When I'm Beside You
-Gone
-Lazy Sunday Jam
-Reload
-My Voice to You (cover, and bonus track)

Everyone okay with that? Most likely in that very order, it sounds best in my head like that.

I'll try to learn and record the bass for Reload now.

Couldn't record the bass for Reload. :c

@jslomba, what sounds good? The song list, my song ideas, or DIY's?

Thanks. 

However, I was thinking more on the lines of the line-up being:
-My Voice to You
-When I'm Beside You
-Lazy Sunday Jam
-Gone
-Reload

That way we end with a moving song, and the best two are kept for last. What do you think?

Also, are we having the cover and bonus track. Why don't we just put the redone MVTY and WIBY?

What do you mean by that? Did you not have time, or do you need to practice it? 

Remember, in any case, I can cover for you as I am an amazing bass player too!
