What is this jam?
This is a jam for those who enjoy composing biome theme songs, or for those who would like to give it a shot. The goal is to compose a theme song for a specific biome by the 31st. A set of 3 themes will be given at the beginning of the jam, as well as some optional sub-themes.
What is a biome?
A biome is, in essence, a region. A good example would be a desert, or a forest. Each are their own distinct biomes.
Themes:
Contestants may choose from one of three themes.
Sub-Themes are entirely optional, but recommended, as they can help to give flavor and/or inspiration to your entry.
For this iteration, I made the first subtheme of each biome a monster/creature type important to the area that you could weave inspiration from.
01.) Wasteland
Sub-theme #1 - Swine
Sub-theme #2 - Industrial
Sub-theme #3 - Dreary
02.) Rainforest
Sub-theme #1 - Scarecrow
Sub-theme #2 - Lonely
Sub-theme #3 - Blood-Soaked
03.) Savannah
Sub-theme #1 - Horrific Alien
Sub-theme #2 - Haunted
Sub-theme #3 - Blood-Soaked
Rules:
1.) Only one song may be submitted for voting.
2.) Your song must fit one of the three main themes.
3.) You can upload your track as an MP3, WAV, etc, but a streaming service such as Youtube or Soundcloud would be preferable.
4.) Be reasonable with the track length (No hour+ songs, for instance.)
5.) You may collab with another if you so please.
Rating:
The rating period will last until the fifth of November, and will be based off of the following categories:
Composition:
How good is the melody? Is the song catchy? etc
Correlation:
How well does the song match the given them?
Creativity:
How unique is the track? Did the composer give it their own interesting flair? etc
Quality:
How good is the mixing and mastering of the song? Do the instruments used sound good, and are they befitting of the theme? etc
Questions:
If you have any questions, feel free to post on the community board.
Rewards:
This contest is meant to be more for the enjoyment of composition than the promise of reward. There will be no rewards. That being said, I am a Pixel Artist with a penchant for drawing monsters, and I might be willing to draw a monster for the #1 winner, if they so desire.
