So... by now we have already accummulated a considerable number of sounds tagged for dare-28.
It will come as no surprise to most of you that now I ask you to create a music piece.

The surprise, however, will be that the music piece that is sellected as the winner will be played on an online radio station!

RULES:
1) music piece must contain sounds that have been submitted for dare-28. - Can contain other sounds and use instruments (recorded or virtual) but the dare-28 sounds must be an important part of the music piece itself.
2) Lenght: must be between 2 and 4 min.
3) Submission: upload your piece in a suitable place (e.g. Soundcloud) and give adequate credit for all samples used. Post on this thread with a link.
4) EDIT: Submission deadline extended to Sunday 21 Sep 2014, 23:00 GMT
5) Voting and winning: voting will start after submissions close. Detailed voting rules will be posted at this time, but you can expect that those who have submitted a piece will be required to vote.
6) Results and winner: will be announced at the end of the voting period. The voting rules (see point above) will explain how this will work.

In the meantime, feel free to continue to upload sounds for dare-28. That part of the dare never expires.

Anyways this was a really unique dare, and I wanted to focus on manual distortion of the sounds, specifically with frequency and time, as radio waves technically last forever.. ... Big thanks to AlienXXX for the Dare, and the amount of time that goes into moderating them!!

I tried to keep the dare-28 samples unedited. Applied fx are NanoStudio standard fx.

Deep Noise In 116bpm.

“Writing about music is like dancing about architecture”
(attributed to Frank Zappa, Elvis Costello, Laurie Anderson and others)
so let me say only that I like this composition very much!
rhythm, structure and all the rest of it

Thanks but I have to make a new version...! Made a mistake I HAVE to correct.
EDIT: Mission completed

Great work gis_sweden!!
The foreboding feeling and the atmosphere it creates is intense!!

Here's my go at it:

https://soundcloud.com/copyc4t/attack-of-the-drones

I couldn't help making a pun on "Attack of the Clones" and the fact that the harmonic part is a drone, but the intent was overall quite serious.

With a little help of a few previously uploaded sounds of mine (honorable mention for luckylittleraven as the helicopter came from one of her sounds, http://www.freesound.org/people/luckylittleraven/sounds/223069/)
here's the list of the sounds used in this:

Thank you AlienXXX, kb7clx, klankbeeld and thatjeffcarter for those inspiring sources.
I realize this is hardly musical, so feel free to disqualify it!

May I do a texture edit of this piece?
I would love to make something completely different from it.

Yes. Until the closing date you can change it.
But please, only one entry per person.
So edit you original post to point to the new entry. OK?

If you plan to make the new piece your entry to the Dare-28, you can. But only 1 submission per person.

@cajo, It is where I make the sound into a series of textures that are completely different from the original sound.
Like the remix I did of 'The Dø, Dust it Off' https://soundcloud.com/chalkwoman/the-d-dust-it-off-chalk-woman

@alienxxx I just want to do it for the sake of doing it! I'm very satisfied with my entry for the dare.

Well, after all video didn't kill the radio star, so I've done a video for Attack Of The Drones

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEcuwKYVLf0

I like the video, even if its dark...
And you used some Swedish material to

Glad you like it, thank you!

I've been quite lucky with finding the kind of material I was looking for, also thanks to the Tekniska museet.
