2nd Place in the Newgrounds Deserted Island Contest!

Posted by ChronoNomad - July 1st, 2015


Yep, that happened.  I remain very pleasantly surprised, though maybe shocked is a better word.  Many thanks and felicitations to the judges and my fellow contest entrants!  It was an incredibly fun and rewarding experience even without the cash and prizes, so...bonus!

We were all provided 50 samples to work with, and the idea was that we were stranded on a deserted island with our laptop with its preinstalled audio creation tools and a half-corrupted flash drive with 10-25 samples on it.  Pick your samples, make a track, and hope that playing it on a loop will get your rescued!  Simple premise, right?  And totally fun.

In case you haven't heard it yet, here's my 2nd place track, Called to the Sea, for your listening enjoyment:  

The first place winner is Phonometrologist with his undeniably impressive track, Costa Concordia:  http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/630605

And, in a very interesting 2nd place tie score happenstance, here's Emid's incredible piece titled A Folklore:  http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/631745

I could go on and on listing all the other entries and winners, but each and every track is deserving of your full attention, so here's a link to the official playlist:  http://www.newgrounds.com/playlists/view/249a7aa6bb6b08db9aa1e7bece818e1b

BTW: Serious grats on this one! I looked at the contest...and then I was like, "Nope." I ain't got the skillz!

Thanks a lot, man! Very much appreciated. Would have been cool to have you aboard. :D

See what I did there? Nautical puns FTW.
