Welcome to the fifth SG karaoke contest, With the fifth iteration of the karaoke contest I will be trying something new, I will not be posting the songs as people sing them, but gather them all and release them at once at the end of the contest. (Tentatively June 16)

A few things to note

  1. all singers will be anonymous to prevent favoritism when it comes time to judge the contest
  2. after the contest, I will reveal the identity of all contestants I have the permission to reveal.
  3. Recording will be done on their own computers. I suggest audacity (http://audacityteam.org/) for this. the songs will be uploaded to a folder on google drive. Contact me on steam and I will send you a link to a folder you can upload to.
  4. To verify authorship I ask that the singer to upload a vocal only track. if they want they may also upload a mixed track.
  5. Singers may submit as many songs as they like.
  6. These are your songs, I will take down any song at any time by the user request , I will also comply with any copyright take down requests if I revive them.
  7. All participants will be invited to a steam group which I will make as many giveaways as I can when the contest ends

About naming conventions When upload a song I'd like you to name it "song-artist-VOCALS" for the vocal only submission and "song - artist-MIX" For example if you sang "Mad World" by Gary Jules, you would upload "Mad World - Gary Jules - VOCALS" I would also appreciate if you upload a text file with your steam name, the favorite song you've covered, and if you want you name relieved after the contest ends.

the first contest
the second contest
the third contest
the fourth contest

Every achievement unlocks a forum giveaway. if you wish to sponsor an additional achievement let me know, I'll gladly add it to the list, and let you know/listen to the submission should the achievement be reached.

Achievements:

₁ Theses achievements are exclusive and can not be unlocked by the same song.

I'd be interested, but I'd start the recordings somewhere after the end of the month, I've got some deadlines to meet first.

Kind of a late reply, but a headset isn't a necessity :P
I did some of my recordings on mobile (since it actually picks up better than my computer mic) and edited on computer.
I'd be interested of hearing your voice <3

I've tried the microphone on my phone, and it is abysmal quality compared to the microphone I had on my headset.

You don't need much for a microphone, I'm using an old mike that came with the sound blaster card i had on my 386

That's the thing, you don't have to be a good singer to have fun doing karaoke. I consider my self to be an enthusiastic, and slightly tone deaf singer. but I have sung in every karaoke contest so far.

That's the beauty of karaoke, sometimes someone doing poorly on a song is as popular as someone who is pitch perfect.

Is it possible to duet with a friend? :>

Comment has been collapsed.

I have let people sign duets in the past, but it has caused some troubles. We have had one person that did a duet regret it afterwards. His partner did almost none of the work mixing the song, but got all the benefits from their work. There was also a disparity of talent involved, so the singer that mixed the song asked me to not let the singer that (according to him) did little list the song as one he sang. I had to refuse, but apparently they are no longer speaking to each other. So moral of the story you can do a duet if you realy want to, but it may not work as well as you hope.

I think juanitou may be talking about dueting with a "real-life" friend, not (necessarily) someone from sg..

TLDR only lazy and talentless people should sing duet together, who preferably already hate eachother :3
