ZENIUS -I- MANIA 2022

Yup, a bit earlier than usual. I'm giving you half a year for this. Aren't I nice?

GROUND RULES

Submission deadline: I'm going to set this to Saturday 24, December.

My role as project lead: I don't really have a stake in this above any of you who wish to take part. I am very much the librarian in this project, I'll take the finished songs in when you're done and figure out the best way to arrange them on the final product. I'm not going to be a nagging type; this isn't a paid job, so I'm not going to be an arsehole about it. My idea is that this is an open forum, so I believe everyone should have a stake in how we tackle the project. Anybody interested in taking part already has this thread to pitch ideas and get help from others if they need to, and we're going to revive the seperate channel in the RM Discord too.

Song Rules:
- Keep your songs between 1'30 - 5'00. I won't be too strict on the upper limit, but if you ARE going over the 5 minute mark, there needs to be a valid musical reason for you to do so. Don't loop a chorus for the sake of looping it, and the like. I'd like the median to be about 2-3 minutes.
- There's not really going to be any sort of quality control (again, just listen to the shit I wrote in 2020!), if you submit something, it's 99.9% likely to be going in, but...you wanna send your best stuff, right?
- Please enter your files at at least 256kbps. I'm not an audiophile, but we have standards. MP3 and WAV formats would be preferred to OGG and FLAC.
- Send me your files through either a Discord link (Oni-91#9956) or through a PM here. Bear in mind that you CAN send direct files through Discord but there is an 8Mb limit.
- There is no limit to the number of songs you can send, but remember: quality is better than quantity. I'd try to limit it to three at most, but ideally just one or two should be fine.
- There are no restrictions on genre, but do be mindful that an album full of songs with STEP or CORE in their genre is gonna get old real fast.


When you do submit something, enter it through the submission methods in the following format:
SONG NAME:
ARTIST:
GENRE:
USERNAME ON ZIv:


Now, good luck, and get out there! I want as many people as we can to take part in this, like last time.
Do feel free to spread this about as much as you can, I really love it when y'all get your stuff in.

very interested in making sure i get a thing or two done for this. i missed the boat the last few showings i think and my entries to years prior haven't been the best. fingers crossed in get at least one (1) banger.

---

Please change the requirements audio files to be .wav or .flac only; that way conversions to mp3/ogg will be seamless.

---

Everyone interested, y'all got four months left on this.

Both of you.

---

added 2 wips to the spreadsheet, really hoping to get those finished soon. y'all better get on this piece.

---

update: one of the tracks is close to finished, the other hasn't even been started. might replace it with something else entirely. i know we only got so much time left in this piece, but i'm gonna make damn sure i get something done this time.
you all should too smh....!!!

You've got about a month, and to be honest, it's looking a bit bare. If you know people get them in here, the track list needs some love right now.

So glad to see this finally come around. Definitely gonna try my hand at giving this a listen, perhaps give a track-by-track review?

I meant to participate in this, but time slips away and all that.
Always happy to see these release. Gonna give this a listen a little later, and I appreciate the immense amount of work that goes into composing and assembling all of these.
