I love the Shadows Collab, I was at the tiny chat when Soupy and Attilee started to talk about the shadows, it's one of my favorite collabs at HR, so I am going to start to contribute again with this, so here you have the first one, a HR shadows logo!!!

So I only just discovered this Shadow Beings collab, and thought to myself – this story needs a bad guy! So here is one I just cooked up:

He is known only as THE TENEBRAE (Latin for “Darkness”) and comes from a rare cast of shadow many thought extinct. These ancient and powerful shadows were the first inhabitants of Umbra – the realm of the shadows. Driven mad by power, The Tenebrae conspired to rule Umbra and turn it’s inhabitants into slaves. However the Noondays, Longrays and Midlights all stood united and banished Tenebrae from Umbra, to live out the rest of his existence in the Human World… And there he has remained ever since, lurking in the darkness, haunting houses, scaring children, known in the Human world as – The Boogie Man… However, unknown to Umbra, he has been secretly building his own army of shadows cast from evil and corrupt humans, in order to wage a war on Umbra and all of it’s inhabitants. 

The little shadow happily walked through the woods at night

Oblivious to the danger lurking just out of sight...

Orn, the master tenebrae

Haven't recorded anything in like 4 months or so. Thought I'd get back into the swing of things :)

Inspired my Mrs. Tibbs23 remix, just changed the size of the shadow beings, added some drop shadows and lighting effects... 

Just some random fun with shadows...

The Longrays of the ancient past still cast down from worn stones in almost forgotten places and it is in one of these rings of stone that a council of withering & waining shadow preside over all realms of the diffrent shadow lands. (it is not known if other shadows hold council here as well, but some believe that on certain days the light is right for an equal council of all shadow types.)

I have an obsession with mixing things together.

A horse with wings, like Pegasus, is fine, but...  I want to be more specific.

Octopus!

Inspired by MadisenMusics amazing words from the Dalkulla and Wilhelm Collaboration. More to follow...

Dancing!  Everything is more fun if it's dancing.

It died and came back.  How did it come alive in the first place?  If a mug has a mouth it can spit out your drinks!  Everything is wrong.

this little guy (these little guys?) was (were?) just beggin' to be colored in :3

could be suited to the little red riding hood collab maybe... ?

On a morning walk through the forest

I get bored and will decorate anything.

To me, nothing is more refreshing than open space.

Just a sliver of a whole picture of two poppies together. It reminds me of a tiny ballerina dancing in a jewelry box.

My daughter, 4 days old.

Alright so I wrote some lyrics and did some vocals to the first part of the song. 

Here are the vocals I did incase you wanted to remix them.

Here are the words

I just want to fall into the wind with you 

I just want to fall in love again with you

I just want to fall into the wind with you 

I just want to fall in love again with you

As our bodies descend to the ground and we fly through the clouds, we see the anthill of a life we once lived and wasted.

I pray for holes in the parachute as you pull the rope. You'll never forgive and you'll never forget but this wind gives me hope. 

I just want to fall into the wind with you 

I just want to fall in love again with you

warning: bad mix, too loud. make sure to turn your volume down some. thanks.   i dropped an old verse on a bit at the end.  also resourced RECord of previous version, in which i also use this verse.

i knew a girl who was an angel wouldn't even hurt a fly.

a special girl like that deserves a special kind of guy.

she had a boyfriend and she thought that they would always be in love.

one day she came to learn that he was just a fuckin scrub.

he wanted to make love, she said "let's wait till we get married."

she had no fuckin clue of the diseases that he carried.

she would tell her friends, "oh, we're just gonna wait until we wed."

while he was taking every whore he could to fuckin bed.

he eventually convinced the girl that they didn't have to wait.

he would always be there and that everything was great.

to him it was a fuck. to her it was magic.

but to us the end result was just so motherfuckin tragic.

her period was late, so she took an EPT.

she's now carrying a baby with HIV.

(Vol:2, to the series of "Skip the Adventurer". Thanks again to my 4year old niece Gabrielle. aka. Gabba Labba Ding-Dong. Please check out the others in the resource.)

Well, I guess by now, you heard about.... you heard about, Skip and the Turtle.

Boy oh Boy! They make great friends.

Skip was never lonely.

He did all kinds of stuff.

One day, he found a ghost! In his basement.

So spooky!

"What do you want?!!" said Skip.

"I will tell you what I want! I want to go home; but my vision is so terrible, I can't see my way out of this basement!"

"How long have you been here?"

"I've been here for seven Ghostly years."

"How long is that?"

"Fifteen minutes."

"Hmm, I know what to do!"

Skip ran upstairs. He came back with some glasses, for the ghost to wear.

"Try these on."

"I.. I can see! Thank you so much!"

"You're welcome Ghost man!"

The Ghost found his way out, and found his way home. He wasn't lost anymore.

All because.... Good Ol' Skip!

The End!

Hey HITRECORD! Here is version 1 of the collage song that I made with all of your great audio tracks.  It's pretty atmospheric with plenty of room for vocals - so VOCALISTS, RAPPERS, SPOKEN WORD ARTISTS, please add your creative skills!

There are about 30 to 40 pieces of audio in here and I will be resourcing them all shortly.  

Thank you so much for having me remix your killer tracks and thanks especially to everyone for such great recommendations on which ones to use! 

A quick idea pieced together on the spur of the moment...

Sel's "Cinnamon" has to be my favourite piece of writing on the website. It works both as a song and as a spoken piece, and I thought it might be interesting to mix it together with The Automator mix..

It's an idea, and I know the mix isn't quiiite right..but maybe someone can build on this?

When I played it to thesherbethead he said it would sound better if Morgan Freeman or Dennis Hopper read it..so if anyone wants to step up to the plate, feel free! This is more to get people thinking about a possible remix option..

*update* 3/30/12 so I added these to the character collab based on krrr's recommendation as this is in the story I had written was a song by Fuchsia's ex-boyfriend that he sang about her. I was looking for a guy to cover it because a guy is supposed to sing it and there's a link to the vocal less version. Really excited about the possibilities of this collab!

Ok so a guy is supposed to be singing so I tried to keep my voice low and with the cold I'm a bit raspy so I'm sure that's helping. Would love to hear a guy sing this. Tweak it as you like add to the royalty free song, read the story (er chapters I've completed) and lets see what develops. so excited!!!

Sorry about the cough at the end but I have a cold and recovering from surgery so that hurt I couldnt finish but it just goes on.

Lyrics:

Verse 1

From a garden full of flowers

you stood out from all the rest

i picked you from the root out the ground

blossoming and at your best

Chorus:

I never thought I'd see the hour

when I'd have to part with my fuchsia flower

we parted ways and said good-bye

I always miss you-no lie

Verse 2

Your petals were as smooth as silk

no other flower feels as good to me

yours was an unforgettable scent

you were a beautiful sight to see

Chorus:

Bridge fadeout :

When it's raining fuchsia petals from the sky

the garden will no longer be dry

I will be the luckiest guy

I'll be the luckiest guy

Just a high res stock video of a jewelery box ballerina dancing to 'London Bridge is Falling Down'

Dr Sweet-Tooth wants you.

realised i had seahorse footage :) figured i might as well put the pieces together ^__^

take a ride with me!!! ... just some raw footage of my elevator in my building.. 

***NOTE*** THIS FOOTAGE IS H.264 if you are going to remix it i would suggest converting it to PRO RES 422 .. it will save you heart ache :) 

so much 'and a new earth' typography to play with!

let me know if i've reached my quota on post-apocalyptic/dystopian image REmixes...

CALLING ALL VOCALISTS, SINGERS, RAPPERS, SPOKEN WORD ARTISTS, please contribute your creative skills to this song!

I made a beat with your great recommendations of HITRECORD audio tracks . It's pretty atmospheric with a lot room for vocals -  It has several sections with moodiness for you to be able to have fun with.  All the keys are pretty consistent and there is a lot of movement within them so let's get in there and make something really special. 

Thanks 

Now with sound!

You know you do it too! (>_<)

Dialogue tails?- god i am so lame...anyway...

While reading the dialogue the first thing that came into my head was having two fishes conversing (fish/fishes-oh dear losing my school learnt grammar!)

RE: Bad Advice Collaboration 2 Wrongs don't make a right, but 3 lefts do.

Looking back at Retro Radios Redux after ChristineNaderer included it in her reREC, I realized I never released my original version which was more realistically rendered. I put these on a transparent layer as well.

i loved the contrast between the mossy trees and the snow.

feel like it needs a story...
