Hello hello! Welcome to my first challenge, known as the:
COPYCAT MUSIC CHALLENGE!
I’m very happy to be doing this and I hope you can be able to join! As for where this idea originally came from, I had come up with it a few years ago and asked around the NG Audio Pub server what peoples’ thoughts were. I also asked for opinions in this forum several weeks prior to making this official thread.
So, what the heck is this?
Well, I’m glad you asked! The Copycat challenge is an audio challenge where you have to make a song based on another artist’s music style. Each participant picks their own artist to be inspired by and produces a track based on their style, with their own unique flair to it.
When is the deadline?
The original deadline is March 6, 2024 to get your submissions in. The deadline will be extended ONCE if there are stragglers, but I don’t think I need to be worried about it too much.
Hmm, is there a prize?
There are no prizes! Really, this is a chance to get out of your comfort zone and to put your skills to the test! :3
With the basics out of the way, let’s get into some RULES! Yes, we have to have rules. These are:
- Your track needs to have the artist you were inspired by in your description as well as a link. If you were inspired by a specific song as well, then please add that as well.
- The artist you’re inspired by must be a Newgrounds artist! If your artist is not on Newgrounds, then please find another artist who is.
- Collaborations are allowed! Make sure to specify the person(s) you are collaborating with ahead of time.
- Remixes are NOT allowed! While you are basing your track on a certain artist’s music style, you are not allowed to remix that artist’s songs for this challenge.
- Although there is no limit to how many tracks you can submit, please keep it to one or two to make it easier for me and for yourselves.
- Please tag your songs with copycat2025. Your songs will be added to a playlist when the deadline arrives.
- Songs made before this challenge are not allowed!
If you have any questions about the challenge or what to do, you can feel free to PM me and I will answer your questions to the best of my ability.
Again, the deadline is March 6, 2024, and will be extended ONCE if needed!
Good luck!
Meow! :3
