ReaperKK's Roulette v. It's been 10 long years....jingle.boy jingle.won!!!!!

[Crow]

oh yeah i still do need to send for this

i was considering sending the funniest possible thing that still technically qualifies for this round but relistening to it again i think it might actually have some synth strings in it so :x

i might just send the funniest possible thing that does not qualify at all instead but just want to confirm: do strings that are probably synth-generated break the acoustic rule? i'd assume so but who knows  for all we know piano ballads could be played on synthesizers with a piano patch anyways

[Elite]

Send big band or marching band music to be sure.

Hrmm this is tough I hadn't thought of this too much. Sure synths will qualify, I was thinking more along the lines of excluding the electric guitar.

[jingle.boy]

If one has to genuinely question and consider whether a song is "acoustic" or not, it probably isn't.

[Deadeye21]

I don’t think Cyril is questioning wether or not it is acoustic, but rather if it meets the guidelines put forward in here. For example, I personally believe the “absolutely no electric guitar” ruling is off, as I know many acoustic versions of tracks that use a clean electric guitar to counter the jangliness of the raw acoustic tone.

And I view the world 'acoustic' as any instrument that doesn't use electrical amplification. This means digital pianos, synthesizers, electric guitars and electric bass guitars are all off limits. This leaves a lot of instruments still available, like everything that doesn't use power to work. You can send acoustic guitar with vocals, or piano, but there's so much more out there. Frankly, just saying 'no electric guitar' is a narrow definition of 'acoustic'.

As for Deadeye's example; if it uses clean electric guitar, I don't think it's 'acoustic'.

Or, I think anything with synthesizers should not be allowed

[Deadeye21]

And see, Reaper’s fine with synth.
So, “acoustic” overall does have a different meaning to different people.

[Lonk]

I sent a straight forward song, acoustic guitars and vocals, nothing else. It probably won't do very well but we will see 

[HOF]

I sent something with acoustic guitars and some sort of harmonica.

[lonestar]

I sent something with acoustic guitars and some sort of harmonica.

I sent something with "acoustic version" in the title.

Acoustic: Songs that are primarily acoustic

Based on the above line I'd be complaining about songs with any electric instruments being disqualified if I were actually in this roulette.

[HOF]

I sent something with acoustic guitars and some sort of harmonica.

I sent something with "acoustic version" in the title.

Heh, mine has that in its title too, but I’m assuming it can safely be dropped for hangman purposes.

[Deadeye21]

I sent a very obscure singer/songwriter solo artist track. It definitely falls under the acoustic label.

[Elite]

I sent unreleased footage of myself playing the alto saxophone for 6 minutes

[Deadeye21]

I sent unreleased footage of myself playing the alto saxophone for 6 minutes

Wait, it’s unreleased? Doesn’t that void the rule that we need the links?

[Lonk]

I sent unreleased footage of myself playing the alto saxophone for 6 minutes

I don't know if that's what they call it in Europe, but porn is not allow in this roulette.

tooting his flute?

Blowing his own horn?

[TAC]

Moistening his reed.

Yeah, and it depends on the band; an electric solo from, say Dave Matthews is one thing, I get that, but an otherwise acoustic song with an electric solo by, say, Iron Maiden or Yngwie Malmsteen, well, that's an acoustic song in my book.

But - and I want to be clear - it's not my roulette and not my rules. I follow the rules.

[Crow]

anyways, i added my incredibly funny pick for the round to the playlist based on reaper's last comment
