Awesome. I have a video that Ive been working on for over a year. This is the perfect excuse to finish it!

This is a great idea. I understand the need to separate original human talent from AI and I wholly endorse and look forward to the content people place here. However, as a person sadly not blessed with musical talent, I'm hoping maybe an "AI allowed" version of this reward may arise in the future?

Hey CMDR, for this particular reward and community, I'm afraid that's unlikely. But don't let that stop you making one anyway. o7

Can you use a digital keyboard (eg Yamaha/Roland)?

I’m going to do freestyle, guess it will be one of the first recording posted to the internet for me. I’ve given myself the title of bard in elite dangerous! 😁

Awesome. I'm currently playing a space bard in a Spelljammer campaign. I can confirm: it's fun!

I have a song coming out with the High Wake today, I will submit it once it has premiered tonight!
Also am working on an album of new songs, so will aim to make a few videos too!

Hi Alex, do submissions need lyrics/voice or is an instrumental only track acceptable?

Here's a song I wrote and performed in the last couple of days about Elite Dangerous. I've titled the song "It's Dangerous" which I think is kind of self explanatory.

Whenever I write a song I always write the chorus first. The main reason being, if the chorus is no good then song is no good and I should scrap it and start again. The chorus is the main part after all that gets sung over and over.

I played every instrument on the recording except for the drums which was a pattern I found. I tried to make everything sound as best I could with effects etc.

I used Cockos Reaper to record everything as well as mastering and creating the video, as I did it all at once:

I recently bought a personal license for it as I use that program heaps.

Lastly, I hope you enjoy the music!
