Return of the Atarians

[Kernal]

so.. were working on the new atari rock album...

 

were using the touch tab synth with the 130xe and getting some interesting results..

 

we did the base tracks for 30 rocks songs..

and now ive begun the process of adding the touch tab synth

 

the base rock songs, and some preliminary synth mixes are up at http://www.soundclick.com/cannabissativa

 

now my question to you is i was wondering if anyone in atariland wanted to make a contribution to the album

in the form of sound, and trippy graphic clips (in avi format preferred) made on an atari

this is the stuff thats going to go in between the songs, and in quiet parts.

also if any one wants to do synth on some of the songs as well... your more then welcome

please EMAIL all contributions to [email protected] or post them here as attachments.

 

also if any one has any weed/stoner trippy images or animations made on an atari.. those will go to the front of the line.

 

so. please try to get this in as soon as possible.. we hope to post the full album online as soon as possible and we're in the final stages of mixing the main base rock songs, and then im adding the synth parts.. then adding what ever you guys throw in. so.. all help is APPRECIATED.. and will be greatly rewarded in this life.. AND THE AFTERLIFE!

 

!Merry Christmas!

this project is a culmination of planning of almost 20 years...

we just waited for the technology to get better, and for the scene to get a little more organized...

 

so heres the basic plot of the album...

 

The atarians arrive in a spaceship on earth, in 2020, they attempt to fix the worlds problems atari style...

hilarity insues.

the atarians are old atari hackers from the early 80's who have landed in the early 21st century

their views based on how the world has differed from how they thought it would be...

of course also there suprise (or lack of) that there is no atari anymore.

 

(if anyone wants to throw in on this plot, such as ideas. that is welcome as well.)

also if u want to do a vocal track as well singing what ever u ideas on this plot line... or even have your atari say it for you (this is prefered..)

 

im thinking about the vocals on the whole album being all said by an atari computer

or the sam program for the 8bit.. but if that proves to tedious i do have the speech proggie on the ST.

 

also by the way.. we use real hardware here in this van. keep it real.

This is sounding cool. Reminds me of a Atarian story we wrote on a Atari BBS once that was a lot of fun.

 

So what kind of help would you need?

[Kernal]

Any cool atari animations that would look good in a background displayed behind the band on greenscreen chroma key

Any Sound effects... synths etc.etc...

If you want to overlay some synth stuff on top of the stuff im doing with the touch tablet synth and

the songs are on http://www.soundclick.com/cannabissativa (click on music, but watch the first video too)

Any plot additions as well..

 

Also, any trippy animations and sounds which would go with the flow of the songs, or to used inbetween songs as intro's and outtros.

 

please submit all audio in mp3 format or (ogg)

i can do aiff as well.

 

video please try to keep avi or mpg.

email all submissions to [email protected] or post here..

got that story still that could help fill some plot holes....

 

so heres some "talking points"

 

so say the atarians are from 1983, they land in a "spaceship" in 2010

 

whats different for them

what are they dissapointed in not happening in the computer scene, also what would they be dissapointed in what did happen

(censorship etc. etc)

 

27 tracks 1 for each year?
