Calling all Steemit musicians - Let's do one huge collaboration song!
I got to thinking with all the talent we have showing up at open mic. It would be fantastic to do one collaboration song. You have seen these before. Below is an example. Not only would it be a hoot but it would be great advertising for steemit and the music scene here. I dont have the mixing or video skills but I can help organize and of course play.
Please comment if you're interested in playing or helping out.
We would need to agree on a song. Have someone in charge of video and audio editing. And an organized way of sending our parts in. I'm just throwing this out there but I think it would be fantastic. What do you all think?

I can lay down the beat on my drum kit! I think that this is a great idea. Can you keep me in the loop?

Steemit, my white bones, my red blood
forever lifting me up from the mud
of meaningless facebook conversation,
and even paying for posting and curation.

Great idea! I saw this
156 countries singing 'all you need is love' by the Beatles, and it gave me goosebumps.
Count me in!

this is fantastic and great song choice. Thanks! putting you down as in. Ill be putting out a new post after we get a few more people and decide if we should do a contest or what. I don't mind footing the prize money to get people inspired to join. I was thinking people could submit songs they think we should do as an open mic style contest. And we can choose a song that way. And it will help get more involved. I need a video audio editor, I'm good at audio but video is not my thing.

You will have to take this one step further starting with a special openmic or something to get some song ideas and then a bit of voting to decide on the song. I will definitely send in a song idea if you do.
Go for it, every revolution needs a song

yes I am thinking about that. I want the people who participate to help choose the song and should be something fun and not too difficult. I will get on discord I am already in the music groups and see what people think. Even if we got 10-15 people it would be great. I think that's the most that youtube video had. I really want to do "Wish you were here" but im thinking that is too slow paced for such a venture. Could be cool though.

@tim-rumford, your idea sounds great. I really hope you pull it off. I'm not a very public person but I will send you positive energy encouragement and wishes for a very successful outcome. It sounds like you can accomplish it with all your energetic followers. Good luck!! :D

I think if we get enough people interested we can pull it off. I know a few steemians with the mixing skills.

Excellent :) I would love to contribute, however... I wouldn't consider my guitar skills up to par for something like this, but I sing.. if you will need any vocals

Next step is to set up a big competition with 1st 2nd 3rd prizes. People should form teams (online) and compete on a general theme. And yes, competition will make everyone better.
It's easy to come up with ideas like these but the hard work is in organizing and promoting...always...goog luck!

yes its true easy to come up with hard to pull off. I did not think about competition since we have openmic every week. I sorta liked the way the youtubers did it. I agree competition will make everyone better but I would think making in as inclusive as possible will be better though in my humble opinion. I like how they did that one not everyone was a pro but they made it work.

You can start by talking about the idea on LFN on discord: https://discord.gg/pEzAuNV
and the music room in PAL https://discord.gg/Df4pDaC
There are other ways you can promote the idea, and that is by setting up your own discord and inviting musicians on steemit to join and collaborate.
Try to make the process as easy possible for people to join and start. People like to join moving wagons, so think about that when you present things to them. I still think they will be more attracted to the idea if there are prizes and stuff.
I'd like to help more but I'm busy next couple days, hopefully this would have gained steam when I come back here.

Wrong comment box so edit -
You're right I need a process for people to enter. I am working the idea and thinking a contest to get things going is not a bad idea and have the join process in place.

Great idea. I can edit. The editing work as seen in the video would be easy for me. I did some professional editing work in the past. Just let me know and I'm in. I also play classical guitar for almost 30 years.

Fantastic! adding you to the list which is growing fast. But this is what we needed the most atm. When I get back from vacation at the end of next week i will be talking to everyone who has offered to help. We'll start a discord channel. And i'm thinking of doing an open mic contest to get people excited and to help choose the song.
