Let's take a tour through the unique methods of BotB's Signalist formats! Embrace interactivity, randomness, procedural generation, or just a cool sound you couldn't imagine making any other way.

This will be a Grand Prix battle, with 4 days to try each format. Your entry for a format should be created within that 4-day period: don't submit previous work.
Voting Categories
  • connections • engineering • experimentation • cool sound • inpants/outpants
Rules
  • All registered users of BotB may vote.
  • All tunes will be rendered to MP3 for voting accessibility.
  • No covers allowed, only original works.
  • Entries that have been previously publicly released are not allowed.
  • While generative processes are permitted if designed by the entrant, they should never be used as a substitute for putting real human effort into your entries on BotB.
Questions and Contact
  • For direct communication join us on IRC!! irc.esper.net #botb       :D/
