Fellow hivers, we're assembling again to help decide the future of mankind. However today we're mostly voting for the next Music Contest #7 theme.
This is a multiple choice poll which will close in 10 days. Theme descriptions:
Location: The song should depict a place. It can be generic place, a biome, fictional location (original or not) or an actual one. Examples: palace, swamp, dungeon, Stonehenge, Ashenvale, My Little Pony Land, Vatican, Darkhowl I-Just-Made-This-Up Forest, etc etc.
Enlightenment: a piece depicting the excitement of discovering/learning something new. Such as a man seeing an angel, a group finding a huge alien settlement in a far away planet, a nordic warrior fainting and seeing Thor telling him something and he wakes up with a godlike power and enlightenment on the battlefield etc.
Fairy Music: A piece expressing a fairy world with pixies, talking rabbits, ponies, wizards etc. This can be narrowed down with only one theme chosen.
Pirate Music: Piece of music that is suitable to a pirate setting.
Stealth Music: I've started working on stealth music and I've found it to be pretty enjoyable. The ones you hear from Call of duty missions(some of them), Hitman soundtracks, splinter cell maybe etc.
Final Boss: The participant has to create a "final boss encounter" track. It may be inspired by any fantasy lore (original, futuristic, Warcraft, etc), historical content, mythology, etc.
Journey: The track must depict a journey, with soundscapes evolving into different locations and situations. It may be inspired by any fantasy lore (original, futuristic, Warcraft, etc), actual history/geography, mythology, etc.
Battle Theme: Each participant has to create a song suitable for a battle situation. Example formats: a background song for a movie/game, a military march which is sung by the combatants themselves during war, etc.
Rap Beat: A themed rap beat (industrial, gangster, horrorcore etc...). Composers can rap on them if they want to and this should be very fun imo
Christmas: The examples I'm putting are not mainstream Christmas songs you guys should check them out
Steampunk: Participants should create a song that fits the steampunk retro-futuristic aesthetic.
Future Garage: Music may refer to inspiring moody songs to them. Here are some examples:
Cinematic: participants are to create a possible soundtrack to fit a Warcraft III cinematic (please suggest one with a comment below). In case no cinematic is suggested, the winner entry from the previous Cinematic Contest will be chosen.
Double Theme: Creates a piece of music that mixes two themes together.
