Libre Music Challenge #39 Live Instrumentation

Post by asublin »

Welcome to the Libre Music Challenge #39!

The challenge for this round is to make a track with live instrumentation.

Let us go back to the root, from where it all started, live instrumentation! Your challenge for this round is to make a track with at least one live instrumentation in it. It could be acoustic, electronic, or even digital if anything else, but it has to be live performed. You can use any plug-in, any effect and any DAW as long as they are free and open source. Additionally you can use any sample as long as they are properly licensed (be responsible). Now go jam and make an epic live performance (and do not forget to press record). Happy music making!

Upon popular vote, the Audius experiment has ended for the time being and the LMC is going back to the LinuxMusicians forum + Internet Archive. For the sake of continuity I would like to upload the previous round to the Internet Archive and will look into that in the coming weeks.

Entries must be posted here before 15 April UTC. Meaning the last minute to submit your entry will be 14 April 23:59 UTC.

The general rules can be found in here but be careful they still mention Audius. I will fix that in the coming days/weeks as well as make a nicer format than JSON.

Happy live performing!

So, it is not necessarily an improvisation, but just live performed, right?

Correct. And it does not need to be entirely live performed, you may for instance sequence a drum track over your live performance, etc.
