Nineveh Guitars and ACIDplanet.com® are collaborating on an artist collaboration. A collaboration collaboration if you will. To the power of 3.

Stage 1: A lyrics contest. Write 'em down and send 'em in. This contest lasted 2 weeks.

Stage 2: Create an a cappella of the winning lyrics. This contest lasted 3 weeks.

Stage 3: Create the music bed for the winning a cappella. This contest goes for 1 month.

Each stage will have a winner. Each winner can compete in subsequent stages, but is not elligible to win prizes (it's a collaboration between artists!). You need not have participated in previous stages in order to partake in this stage.

THIS... is Stage 3. Take the winning vocal recording from Stage 2 and back it up with music to make it shine. It's available in "The Samples" box to the right. Use the "Upload My Entry" link over in the right column to upload your completed song (including both the vocals and your music).

F3EN provided us with the lyrics to 'Bottle of Self Destruct'. MJD brought them to life. No pressure, but at this point in the collaboration, it all comes down to you!


Tips


At 12:00 a.m. midnight CST on Saturday, December 30, 1899, the contest will be closed and no further uploads will be accepted. If you are new to ACIDplanet, you should create an account and upload a song as soon as possible so that you can work out any problems with uploading that you may encounter. Also, uploading a song can take a considerable amount of time. It's better not to wait until the last few hours of the contest to start uploading your entry.


Entrants must upload an MP3 format version of their entry. You will not be able to upload after the contest closes, so please allow enough time to upload before the contest closing time.


Entrants must provide accurate contact information (valid e-mail and postal address) in their registration at ACIDplanet.com for the purpose of contacting winners. You can update your contact information here.

Contest Content Help


No Links? If you do not see the "zip" links to the contest loops, it may be because you are running firewall or security software with Ad Blocking turned on. If so, please temporarily turn it off and the links should appear.


What is the .acd file in the sample remix? The .acd file is an ACID project file that contains a sample remix made from eight to ten of the contest loops. It can help you learn how to use ACID, or give you ideas about remixing the track. You don't need to use it, but you'll at least want to download the sample remix so that you get the loops.


Can't open the ACID project file? The ACID project file (.acd file) is in ACID 5.0 format. It can be opened in ACID 5.0, but not in previous versions of ACID. If you using a previous version of ACID and you wish to view this file, you can either upgrade or download the current version ACID XPress in the Tools area of this page. However, you do not need to view the .acd file to enter the contest. You can simply use the loops in any version of ACID or in any other software.
