Gametabs Zelda Album - DEADLINE IS OVER !

Album talking at the end of page 5, need your opinions !

ABOUT THE ALBUM
So we got more than 1h40 of music and still a month to go !
If we ever get more than 2h40 of music (maximum for 2 CD) i'll delete 2 or 3 of my tracks (as i plan to do between 5 and 7 songs) to let everybody have their songs on it ^^

I'll post a 2nd trailer tomorrow and give you the file so, if you wish, you can put it on your channel too

I've asked a friend to do an original cover for the album.
If you know some people who can do art works or graphic artists you can aks them too, and we'll pick the best work :) (and add the others in the album file as "bonus art")

What order for the songs on the album ?
It can be by:
- Alphabetical order
- Length
- Music style
- Games in alphabetical order
- Games following the years they came out
The last one is my favorite and when you got 2 covers of the same song i'll pick one of them and put them at the end of CD2. I'll make my choice following if the cover artist already got many songs on the CD or for that game etc.

About the song volume balance
As most of you guys sent .wav i think i'll use Audacity, import the songs "normalize" them at -3Db and then export in .wav, so no quality loss. And then put them into 320kbs Mp3 for the final file.
Does it sounds good to you? Or got better ideas ?

__________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rules
- Any songs from any zelda game is allowed
- Whatever your level (beginer => advanced) you can enter
- Whatever your style (rock, metal, acoustic, jazz, dubstep, hip-hop...) you can enter
- Whatever instrument you play (guitar, bass, piano violin, keyboard, your voice...) you can enter
- No length obligation, can be a 15sec jingle or an epic prog cover of 15min
- Can be idividual or collabs
- Can be a new recording or a recording you posted during the year 2014 !
- dead line is set for the 15th february, so you got 2 months !

How does it works ?
It will be a free album hosted on mediafire (or any other free place).
Send your songs here (or directly to me) on the best file possible (.wav is great).
It can be a normal or double album following the number of entries.
Try to be a bit original with your song choices, i know song for storm is a great song but try to do not have 7 covers of the same song ^^ You cna talk about it here, try to find people to collab with etc.

If you guys have any questions, suggestions or if i forgot to say something importent, just let me know =)

Time to make great music together !

Well give a try, it doesn't have to sound professional.
But if it sounds really bad well, you still can classical guitar players to plau your arrangement :)

Question time !
So i've made the rules but i'd like to have your opinion on this guys.
A youtube buddy asked me if he can participate with a september 2013 recording (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9I3gKyi8N44)
Do you think i should make an "expetion" or "rules are rules or it will be a mess".
Waiting for some opinions :)
edit
TheDoomOfAllFire said "he should make a new version of his recording with some modifications, but if he uses his old one, the participating album concept wond't works anymore"

Downloads should be available for all those tracks.

This is the kind of thing that could motivate me to record new stuff, and there are so many good tabs out there.

Alfa_Ice's Hyrule Field comes to mind as one I could do.

I've put the songs by alphabetical order to see which songs are done, in progress or not covered.
You can have different covers of the same song but, not having 4times the same one would be great^^

I've been looking around for some songs and I think I'll do Midnas Lament from TP and The Great Sea from Wind Waker.
Hopefully I can get both done, but I'll definitely get at least 1 of those done. If anyone wants to collab on one of those too let me know :)
