The 3rd Annual Spookiest Creepiest Halloween Music Contest

**Garritan** · 10-08-2006, 11:29 PM

It's getting to be Halloween time and time again to do another Spookiest Creepiest Halloween Music contest.

Let's hear some or your scariest, creepiest, spine-tingling and gruesome music.

It can't just be spooky - it must be dead frightening and make your hairs stand up on end.

Some tips: Use the GPO organ, harpsichord, bass clarinet, contrabass clarinet, string glisses, and try adding in some sound effects and screams.

If you have the Strad there are some fx you can play and JABB has those triple C screams by Tom

Those who have been scared to post a demo, here is your chance to frighten the other forum members.

The winner will receive a a free Stradivari 2.0 sample library (or Marching Band or some other ghoulish prize). ..or have their tortured screams be made into a sample library.

Please post your musical trick or treat. Looking forward to hearing your creepiest. This is going to be a SCREAM!

Oct. 31 seems like a good deadline.

Is there any requirements? I did some pretty creepy stuff that I could post, but it has a voice over on - the VO really adds to the creep. . .

Also, it uses more than GPO - But it does use GPO!

If it uses a substantial amount of GPO/JAB/Strad/GOS that would be be creepy enough for the contest

Do we just post a link to our piece like garymosse has done or do we send it to someone as is done with the orchestra challenges? Just want to get this right.

BTW Garymosse: Great Job!

kill two birds with one stone by also making this an entry into "worst demo"! C'mon... someone has to beat those bagpipes & tympani!

**Paul Blankenau** · 10-11-2006, 01:43 PM

Since the Worst Demo contest never actually ended, I consider it ongoing. I was planning to see how well GPO performs in a death-metal piece. This just gives me another excuse.

**J. Whaley** · 10-11-2006, 09:22 PM

is there a limit to the number of entries? Is there time limits? Or just post away and hope we win free violins?! (I personally think I should just because I could really use a free violin - and it would also make me feel good)
