Anyway, i added a flute cause it sounded Draeneish (unlike the bad guitar which i had eariler). Added a brass-like instrument. And well, that's pretty much it. May make some adjustments but this is what it's going to sound like.
Darkgamma, I really enjoyed your music. Especially the intro. I think it would suit for a tetris game though, because it didn't sound very warcraft-ish.
Oh if that's so..
Can i do skinks? :O!

I hope to dispel any confusion you guys may have about this contest. This is a Music contest, not a Warcraft Background Music contest - thus none of the music has to be made as background music or to fit the style of Warcraft music. The music simply has to fit the theme of a race, any wc3 race (lore or otherwise). The music doesn't even need to be compatible with wc, midi files are accepted. Write with the race in mind, not the game.
I understand most people get this, but I was starting to get a feeling that some people think that the music must work in Wc, which is not the truth.
Switch Audio Converter: Free audio file changing program - can convert to less commenly used audio file types like RAW's and Orggis Vorbis
[*]The contest shall begin on January 17th and conclude on March 3rd, 11:59 PM, GMT[/list]
I don't want to lose quality by converting it into lower frequency format and Hive uploader doesn't accept .wav files.
You know you can attach .mp3 files to a post, right
Anyway, is having the link for sendspace a problem? Rules says nothing about that...
You can convert it into OGG and not lose any valuable quality in the audio.I don't want to lose quality by converting it into lower frequency format and Hive uploader doesn't accept .wav files.

Music Contest rules said:Your submission must be posted before the deadline. Your post must include the music in an accepted file Format (MP3, OGG, or MIDI) and an accompanying explanation of the song (i.e. explain how it fits into the theme).
And players like Winamp, Foobar2000, Media Player Classic and XMPlay plays OGG files very fine.
@up
I do give.
I wish there was a separete thread for applicants, kinda messy here.
It won't be that fine, this is hardly started, wait one month (even more, as it was meant to finish in march) and see what happens...

Ok, in a burst of inspiration, i started a totally new song. If i can make it better (and find a suitable race), i think that'd be my entry.
anyway, since the server is busy i wanted to write this reply before i can't access it again (been doing that to me for the last few hours... seems i'm out of luck)
Oh, and it really reminds me of another song. I don't know which one, but i bet there is another similar song. If anyone can find it, post it so i know if it is too similar >.<

Not needed in Foobar2000. And I doubt codecs are needed in the other players I've mentioned.You usually need codecs
Not needed in Foobar2000.
Windows Media Player sucks and begs for an apocalypse.
its really hard to start
and my program sucks to begin with,
don't expect too much from me
Here are some free to use resources that can get you started:
* Audacity: Free Audio recording program - though you have to start a new track every time you record (cut and paste across tracks to deal with this), this handy audio program has nearly no latency (non-noticeable) and is a great start for people recording actual instruments.
* ModPlug Tracker: A tracker composing program. Pretty easy to use and powerful. Doesn't come with very many instruments although more are easy to get.
* NoteWorthy Composer: Another composing program that relies heavily on sheet music.
* FL Studio (formerly known as Fruity Loops): Another powerful composer. Has a bit of a steep learning curve and also is not free but there is a trial version you can use.
* Switch Audio Converter: Free audio file changing program - can convert to less commenly used audio file types like RAW's and Orggis Vorbis along with the big ones like MP3's (Can convert iTunes locked format too).
* Psycle: A free sequencer type program - similar to Mod Plug. Has a bit of a learning curve, though it's pretty powerful when used correctly.
* Mp3 Direct Cut: Simplistic audio editing program that allows you to edit Mp3 directly, from their original file (don't forget to back up the original).
* Krystal Audio Engine: Similar to Audacity, though this program is tooled more towards people editing or mixing music - recording can generate some terrible latency. (Essentially its more powerful then Audacity, but much more difficult to record a sound directly to it)
* Hammerhead Rythm Station: A free drum machine that has built in sounds geared towards Electronica and Dance music. Also supports importing your own drum sounds via userbanks (some userbanks are provided on the site) and the entire sound library can be edited if you get more advanced with it - Drum parts can be exported as wav's and then used in your music. You will want to use Switch Audio engine if you plan on importing your own sounds as it only supports the RAW format.
* Guitar Pro 5 - A popular Tab program that is capable of producing MIDI works. When used with the RSE plugins it can produce some realistic guitar/bass/drum parts. There is a trial version that allows for 15 days free - RSE can't be used in the trial version
* Suggest some more!
