ariich's DARK TO LIGHT roulette (v8) - Post-roulette updates (ongoing)

[ariich]

Rich, I don't have Spotify, can I just send the names to you of the songs and you can let me know if they aren't on there and I'll shoot you MP3s?  Or shoot you MP3s anyway?

Yep that's fine, no need to send me mp3s if they're on Spotify so let's go with that with mp3s as the backup. Helpful if you can let me know which album each track is from.

Of course.

Let's do this

I got the next three bands picked, just gotta narrow down what tracks. After that I got to sift through the rest of my J-metal library...I got about 20-30 bands, and of those I think only Nemophila and Gacharic Spin are totally banned. Easy pickings man...

If I ever do run another roulette, I'm expecting you to join and send me all the J-metal!

And by “one track”, I mean one track, not “multiple tracks but really it’s one song”.

Just call this the jingle / Dimension Act rule, kk?

Hey now, I was in the lead.

I understand why it was difficult to finish, but I really would love to see it resolved eventually (as others said, wouldn't need long, in-depth writeups though).

It will happen eventually. I just need to get back in the right headspace to wrap it up. I hate leaving things hanging for too long, although Chad should be used to it. I left him hanging on his post roulette concept album for, what, 2 years? 

[HOF]

I has sent things.

[Luoto]

Yeah, thought I'd jump in last minute. This will be... interesting

I'd love to get at least one more sign up to make this my biggest roulette ever.

I can always play as two people if we don't get another and start making up for missing your first seven roulettes.     Maybe exhume my old alias.

Edit: Sent the good stuff

[Glasser]

This looks like something I would love to do but I literally feel like my brain broke reading the the way it works. I don't have Spotify but I'm sure I can work around that. I may need to have someone literally call me to explain it better.

Let's conference call and listen to Pizza Death while I explain. I'm sure Ariich will go easy on you, as it's your first time. Basically, just give Ariich the names of the songs and he'll find them on Spotify.

Each round is themed, first round being 'heavy' (open to interpretation) with a time limit of 20 minutes worth of music. So you could send almost the whole Pizza Death album!

It's a lot of fun dude. The main thing you need to do in a roulette is rip on Tim. You've got plenty of experience there.

You'll learn as you go and there are no stupid questions

Don't worry about the format if you're not familiar with Spotify, you can just tell me the artist and song(s) and I can find them on Spotify myself.

Short version of what you need to know to get started:
 - each submission should be as many songs as you like from a single band/artist, up to a total of under 20 minutes.
 - anything from an album I've rated on RYM (link in OP) is banned, anything else is not banned. For example if I've rated some albums by a particular band but not others, the albums I've not rated are available to send.
 - first round should be something on the heavier side of your musical interests, round 2 should be from the lighter side, then round 3 is completely open. That then repeats for rounds 4-6. Final round will be an EP round involving multiple artists, rules in the OP

So, you in?

[ariich]

Oh and yeah Luke's explanation is spot on as well, and he's right - feel free to ask questions on anything you're unsure of!

All this time and you still don't know how to spell my name. 

[twosuitsluke]

Getting there!

Yea honestly, roulettes have evolved over time but at their core it's just send music to someone and they score it. It's always nice to have fresh meat as it were.

Not only that, I don't even know what continent you're on!
