Dave-Stone55 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 GO ASTAT! Haha YES- but this is an epic idea actually. We've had 12 LPU CD's already so I don't mind if this year they do something a little different, though the rest of the community seems to disagree.

vyonizr Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 As long as Grecian and are on the tracklist, it's not a big deal for me. But I hope they will not repeat this kind of contest for LPU14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andros Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 A mix between b-sides and demos, like LPU X, songs like "Across The Line", "Pretend To Be", "What We Don't Know", etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astat Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 What? An LPU contest involving LPU members collaborating with Linkin Park on original music? What? Anthony's been working on his own original material for the last several months, has a bunch of instrumental songs written that just need to be fleshed out with vocals and proper production, and just needs to pick which one he feels is the strongest and record it sometime within the next 13 days? Don't mind if I do, Linkin Park. Don't mind if I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papercutz Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I would rather have exciting things like this contest for LPU CD instead of boring demos that have no vocals from Chester Bennington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbrocker Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I might not be a fan of another contest, but I do have LPU membership so I'll definitely be voting for Astat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[AndOne] Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I like the whole contest idea but the voting thing is something that annoys me. They pick a top 10 so either of these is probably very good no matter who wins, but internet voting can easily manipulated. Just look at the recent case with the meet Taylor Swift thing, where so creepy 39 year old guy was winning because they wanted to make it happen (I think it was cool though) and it ended up being canceled, lol.

Is the voting restricted to LPU members only? If so, I think that should cut down on the vote manipulation a fair bit. It'll also make the competition a lot closer... And an update: Song picked, working out arrangement ideas tonight and starting recording tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[AndOne] Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 You are right, the whole voting seem to be LPU only, the top 10 only get showcased on lpu.com according to the email. So the top 2 actually win the grand prize, not just the first place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't specifically stated anywhere, but I'd assume there will be 2 grand prize winners but the band will probably only pick one song to put on LPU13.

[AndOne] Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'd assume that is where the "might be put on LPU13" portion comes in."Your song may even end up on the upcoming LPU13 album due out later this year." If it doesn't end up on the CD it could be still released digitally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipees Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) If it doesn't end up on the CD it could be still released digitally.i think this is what they planned anyway. Edited July 24, 2013 by Skipees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
