NUR EIN!

Oh God, an 8 minute love song. Should I kill myself now?

You know I love the face, can't wait to hear it.

"Second."

It's past the time when I can record any more vocal tracks, so I suppose that means I'm done them. That is both a blessing and a curse.

Blame the judges. You almost never see me wasting more than three minutes of your time!

Hey, everybody-

It's my solemn duty to concede and whatnot with the losing, heretofore.
I guess I succumbed to time crunch.
I broke through my bass drum head last night, after guitar center hours.
I was behind as it was, and tried to program drums to the guitar (instead of the other way around; the usual way) until about 6:30, when a friendly squirrel convinced me to go get some sleep (so I could take m'boy to the car show.)

I'm a little bummed to have to drop out at such an exciting point in the competition, but it was fun, and I'm looking forward to next year (when so many chips will hopefully not be stacking against me [see: cat bitten fingers and such])

Your Pal,
Bob Nominous.

P.S. Good Luck Puce!

Bummer Phil, that sucks. I blame the late in the game six minute challenge.

Anyway, we're still in it this time, also for better or for worse. Our song clocks in at about 6'20" or so. This was really tough, considering how tapped out we're feeling at this point (more than 8 weeks into this competition!).

Oh man, I think I'm delirious from not sleeping much last night...

I don't see an e-mail. Please remedy quickly.

Sorry, sent for real this time. Please see note above about delirium. I must have quit my mail program before the message got sent. I was doing another mixd and wanted to save CPU cycles.

Well, I'm in. I had a bad crash right at mixdown, and had to scramble to re-render. The crash cost me my carefully chosen mastering settings, so I had to re-master it "blind"; I haven't even listened to it yet. My prediction: quiet and overcompressed.

<strike>Sorry to hear the bad new Abom</strike>. I'll give 'em hell for ya.

EDIT: That was supposed to be "bad news". I don't think the New Abom is bad at all.

EDIT 2: Haha, my mix is crap.

Puce, your "crap" mixes are better than 99% of the mixes in SongFight! land, so don't sweat it. I just noticed that our song is missing a whole track which didn't get exported for some reason.

This round has given me an idea though: Puce and Frankie should do a collaboration! That would be like the formation of Voltron, and would be awesome.

I've been thinking similar things lately. Puce is so awesome at production and I'm not only not, but I don't seem to be too interested in getting better at it. So, it would seem logical I should team up with someone who can make my songs sound awesome! I'll start saving my pennies.

It'll be like matter and anti-matter combining: such a union could potentially rend the world asunder.

I'm into it.

Just please call it Voltron.

To the best of my knowledge, the due date is accurate. Niveous can confirm that when he's not out of town.

The last round will be judged by the 23 contestants that were eliminated in this competition since round one.

It's PUCE vs. FRANKIE BIG FACE in:

Nur Ein's FINAL ROUND

Title: Heart of a Lion
Challenge: Bring Your "A" Game
Due Date: July 2nd, 2007 at 1PM EST
Send a link to the song to nurein.sidefight@gmail.com

IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE 23 CONTESTANTS THAT WERE ELIMINATED SINCE ROUND ONE, LISTEN UP! BEN HAS A COUPLE OF GOOD POINTS:

There won't be much of a window so y'all should plan to spend July second and third doing nothing but listening to the final two songs over and over. It's the American thing to do, especially for you dirty non-Americans in the competition.

I guess it would be wrong to start this new relationship by asking you to mix and master my last Nur Ein entry, wouldn't it?

How do we send in our vote in the final round? PM? E-mail?
