Oasis Band! Empty Oasis Band!

Post by Fithboy 7/15/2015, 7:54 am

Alright, I've wanted to do this for a while and now my new PC is up and running I can finally get started. I want to create a band/orchestra out of you lovely Oasians! For an example, here is a link to the Doctor Who Fan Orchestra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xj1YhlEmXkw

If you would like to join please use the format below. Any instrument is acceptable, doesn't matter whether its harp, recorder, voice electric guitar or anything inbetween! I will arrange a piece based on what instruments we have.

Format! wrote:Instrument I play:
Song I would like to play:

You don't have to take a video, but this will require you to be able to record and send audio.

Instrument I play: Piano ftw
Song I would like to play: Don't really care, love the idea though :P

It would be a good idea to use a (flashing light) metronome, like the online one: http://www.webmetronome.com/. This way the rhythms will be the same, and it'll be easier to put them together. Just remember to turn your computers sound off when using this metronome :P

Thanks for all the applications everyone! I'm getting the idea we should start with something pretty relaxed, so I'll try out scoring Crazy as Shnoork suggested.

Keep on signing up people, everyone is welcome!

Um...

I have a question!

Oasis Band! 5f236a4d6f809033221aaaca3fb0bab4

But seriously, how good do ya have to be to do this? Like, I can kinda play the keyboard / electric guitar but I'm not that great lol

EDIT: OMG I can also kinda play the harmonica, that would be a great addition I feel! XD

I do believe the only real requirement here would be that you are competent with your instrument. Assuming this gets off the ground, its not like we'll be playing a concert, you know? Besides, even if youre only a beginner, anyone can learn an instrument. 

Conclusion: know how to read music and hit those notes. The rest will come to you. No pressure.

Exactly this. If you feel your part is too hard, just tell me and I will simplify it

Tenor, alto, treble or bass?

EDIT: also, I started scoring Crazy, but it didn't work all that well as an orchestral piece as it has quite a thin texture. I'm working on Paradise by Coldplay at the moment, that ok with everyone?

Ok, the score is done! I've uploaded the piece as an mp3 file and the music as a few pdf files. Follow this link to download what you need: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B_K9bhPKHMZofmlJTl94b2lPaWkzbFRacXpqQzI4ekpFN1VlbVNsXzhCcUdkaV9iNjJaMlk&usp=sharing

If you want to make your part more interesting and improvise a bit (pianos especially), by all means go for it!

If you are going to record video of you playing, please still use a microphone close to your instrument to record the audio. Here is an example:
Oasis Band! Img_2010

When you are done, please upload the files to Google Drive/Dropbox or something, then send them to me at theoneguymonkey@gmail.com with the subject as 'Oasis Band'

If you have any problems, questions or queries, fire away! Good luck!

By my check we dont seem to have a whole lot of percussion. Given your experience, I think you'll make an excellent addition!

Piano and orchestra bells (xylophone?) being our other percussion instruments, of course

Sounds awesome Gore!

@jkleinvelds Drums would be great! You can download the audio here and make up a beat or I can write up a part for you, your choice.
