Instrumentals Song Tournament
http://orig03.deviantart.net/5c11/f/2015/148/4/9/no_singing_by_jdan_s-d8v4087.png


This tournament is open to pieces of music as long as they have absolutely no vocals - not even one word! Each nomination must also please be limited to no longer than ten minutes duration, whilst this may exclude a few fantastic longer instrumental pieces it has to be remembered some of us have lives outside these forums too (at least that's the rumour) ;)

Admission for participation is now CLOSED, many thanks to those that have joined!

Y'all know the general rules of one of these but for those that are new to the process...

As usual nominations will go head to head in each round with the winner progressing and the loser falling by the wayside to perhaps live and fight another day in another tournament (no pieces of music will be harmed by this process).

Please indicate over the next couple of days if you wish to participate and once the final number of participants is known the exact number of selections required will be determined (it should be at least eight each so feel free to start nominating straight away).

For selections please do not post videos but URL links (if you are unaware how to do this please just ask). All selections must have links provided to them to enable voting, Youtube is the most popular source but as long as a link is accessible in the various countries of those taking part any free and legal source that does not require one to sign-up to is acceptable. Please post your links with the textual nominated artist and song such as: Clive Dunn - Grandad (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zFbrA_P2uu0).

When voting you must listen to both pieces. Voting on each round is intended to be open for 24 hours but may be closed earlier if all nominating participants have voted or extended if voting is close and not all nominating participants have yet voted. Voting is not restricted purely to those that have nominated songs but for those that have not they must vote from the beginning of the tournament to continue voting beyond the first round. Unless a tie-breaking vote is requested, anyone without nominations who hasn't voted consistently will not be allowed to vote in the final rounds.

But most of all .... have fun ladies and gentlemen!!

So, give me about 5 minutes or so.

Also, seeing as how we have the ten minute rule, could I just post parts of songs? Like, say, the first few movements of a gy!be track or something.

Judging just only from the nominations so far , there's going to be some very hard matches!

SV I'm sorry! still, you have some good tunes now :)
Trying to make me feel better, huh? ;) You caused me to use unlady-like language towards the computer screen when I saw that you'd gotten to it before I did this morning. :p

I mourned, though. I am over it now. :D



Seriously, though, I am kind of hoping that we can add a couple more songs (maybe) because I have at least 8 more that I could easily use. This was hard for me. I look at my list and I think "Do I want to take (blank) away from this list for (blank)?", but I just can't do it. I like my list. And I really like what I have as "extras". I don't know what to do!

These song tournaments always put me into such dilemmas. :D

Okay, so, the forum isn't letting me post links until I have 25 posts, which I guess is a fair rule. I'll come back later if you haven't started without me.

Oh that's true, what a shame. Maybe we could post them for you ? What do you think Chyp? He could send you the links in a pm? Would that work? Or if not just post the songs you want and we could do the links

christine
07-23-15, 06:21 PM
Go for it DC, you can pm Chyp...unless you can't send a pm until you've made 25 posts? If that's the case, why don't you post the songs you want, and any specific orchestra/musician and we can repost it with a link in it. :)

Doesn't Verdi's Requiem have Latin lyrics? Don't get me wrong, the entire Requiem is my all time favorite piece of music, ever, but there aren't supposed to be vocals here. :(

Gats, FM has already pointed out, your Verdi's requiem not only isn't an instrumental it has a whole choir!
Also your Star Wars link doesn't work for me , although it might be a UK thing. Does it work for everyone else?

Acker Bilk - Strangers On The Shore (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7jzx664u5DA)

I did ponder upon the ol' Stranger on The Shore, cos Acker came from round here. It's an iconic track, nice choice.

here we go then:
Round 1 - Day 2

King Tubby - Blood Dunza (Dub version) vs. Animals As Leaders - CAFO - was going to find some reggae too, but glad this one is here cos I forgot. Love reggae :)
Led Zeppelin - Moby Dick vs. Kanka - Step Forward - Love that dub!
JS Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G major, BWV 1048 vs. Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D Minor = ach this was very very hard, and not fair! two majorly good pieces. Still don't know if I went for the right one
Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy - An Ending (Ascent) vs. John McLaughlin- Miles Davis - very fond of Boards of Canada. Need to listen to them more.
Sing Sing Sing - Benny Goodman vs. Giorgio Moroder - Chase - I know Giorgio is the king of electronica but Benny Goodman and his Orchestra are on fire on that track. So good I went and watched them playing here:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3mJ4dpNal_k . If you weren't at least tapping your toes never mind dancing aound the kitchen then you need to liven up a bit!
Jose Feliciano - Malaguena vs. "Gone With The Wind" (Tara's Theme) - Itzhak Perlman & John Williams - Jose Feliciano , what a maestro. I like Tara's Theme, but I think I like the original Max Steiner version more
Crazy For You: Overture - George Gershwin vs. Chopin - Etude No. 3 Op. 10 "Tristesse" - another hard one. I really wanted to vote for the Gershwin, but the Chopin is so beautiful...
Near Light- Ólafur Arnalds vs. Little Walter - Juke - here now you made me vote against my own track and I love the harmonica so much, but Near Light is gorgeous.

Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy - An Ending (Ascent) vs. John McLaughlin- Miles Davis Loved the first but it's against my pick and I love Bitches Brew.
Sing Sing Sing - Benny Goodman vs. Giorgio Moroder - Chase Close, but Swing Kids is one of my favorite movies from childhood. Loved swing music ever since so nostalgia gets the vote.
Jose Feliciano - Malaguena vs. "Gone With The Wind" (Tara's Theme) - Itzhak Perlman & John Williams
Crazy For You: Overture - George Gershwin vs. Chopin - Etude No. 3 Op. 10 "Tristesse"

yes, it was a bit weird.

SV - I did very nearly vote for the Gershwin, such a good piece of music but the balance only just tipped into the Chopin. I think I can honestly say there was nothing in this round I didn't like.

Also: I edited in a shorter version of Vivaldi in, so we are under duration now. :)

Wow! What's this? You guys can vote for whatever you like the best. :D

Two things:
1. I kind of wish that the Gershwin overture would've been the Broadway version (yes, I can tell the difference - the orchestra has a "stronger" sound)
2. I would've voted for that Gershwin piece no matter what because I think I am the only person that isn't crazy about Chopin. I've tried for years to really get into him, and I just can't. But, seriously, everyone else can love him if they want to. :D Vote for Chopin to your heart's content. :) I don't mind. :)

Mussorgsy - Bydlo (from Pictures at an Exhibition) vs. Brian Eno - An Ending (Ascent) - hard, liked them both
Ramin Djawadi - Game of Thrones theme vs. Michael Nyman - In Re Don Giovanni - not keen on Game of Thrones the series but the music is suitably epic
Floods - Hildur Gudnadottir vs. Sibelius - Finlandia - like them both too. Swan has Hildur played with Godspeed You Black Emperor? I keep thinking I hear small sections that are very like their work. Maybe it's just being the cello that does it.
Autumn 3 (Vivaldi Recomposed)- Max Richter vs. Pink Floyd - Marooned
Samuel Barber - Violin Concerto, Opus 14 - II. Andante vs. Hildur Gudnadottir - Into Warmer Air - went with mine but do like the other one too. I must've heard the Barber before but I heard it in Terence Davies film A Deep Blue Sea (a director I feel an affinity for) which is set in shabby post war London where a sad woman with a staid husband is having an affair with a feckless guy who is pretty horrible to her. The film isn't amazing, but the music made tears run down my face and still does whenever I listen to it.
Parhelic Triangle - Autechre vs. Bagley - National Emblem March - this is what I mean about variety in this tourney!

No fair to the cheaty-face that is pushing cello pieces. I am a slave to the cello. Hildur ftw!

I like a fair amount of Autechre music, but this track is off of Confield, which I just can't stand for some reason. I am more of an Amber/Tri Repetae guy, myself.

sadly it doesn't look like it's going through, but I'm the same. Whenever I think about that piece of music I have to go and find it again and listen over and over . There's something about that bit of repeated melody (there must be a word for that , Neiba would know. Hook is what you'd call it if it were a pop song!) that's absolutely entrancing

where are you Deadchannel? Come join the voting.

Round 1 - Day 4
"Wuthering Heights" (Cathy's Theme) - Alfred Newman vs. Unveiled - Hildur Gudnadottir - I have to go for Wuthering Heights as it has a very personal nostalgia for me.
Tonomura - Ducktales NES Moon Theme vs. Variations 1-4 - Andrew Lloyd Webber - Ducktales is cute but I'm too old to have a nostalgia vote fopr computer games music!
Acker Bilk - Stranger On The Shore vs. Miller - Moonlight Serenade - really hard, they're both the strongest songs of this round I think. I had to go for Acker as he was a local lad
YMO - Chaos Panic vs. Nemo Egg- Thomas Newton * * (alternate version for Europe) - both good
Shut Up And Dance- Vitamin String Quartet (Walk the Moon) vs. The Ocean - Bathyapelagic I: Impasses - both good too!
Ladies in Lavender- Nigel Hess and Joshua Bell vs. Steve Vai - Tender Surrender I like LiL but fancied a bit of guitar listening this afternoon
Aphex Twin - Fingerbib vs. Steve Vai - For the Love of God...but not too much ;) besides Aphex Twin is great
Carlos Paredes - Verdes Anos vs. Miles Davis - Blue in Green - both good, but Miles Davis is just so atmospheric, redolent of smoky nighclubs

That last one was harder than I thought it would be, and I ended up going with Paredes in the end, even though when I saw the tracks listed, I figured Davis was a shoe-in.

Steve Vai is THE MAN, and these two tracks are two of my favorites of all time by the artist. Funny thing: I was deciding between those two for my Vai pick - glad someone else nominated Tender Surrender!

Round 1 - Day 4

"Wuthering Heights" (Cathy's Theme) - Alfred Newman vs. Unveiled - Hildur Gudnadottir

Tonomura - Ducktales NES Moon Theme vs. Variations 1-4 - Andrew Lloyd Webber Huge wave of nostalgia listening to Tonomura. I never played that game before but the music gave me the overwhelming urge to look up the music from Super Mario Bros. (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iy3qq7zc4EY&list=PLEAE2BCB23A29D7B8) and Kirby's Dream Land (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5eEAYmVLfUw) followed by a mad search for my first generation Game Boy that had been forgotten and stuffed in an old junk drawer. Thanks for the nom FM!

Acker Bilk - Stranger On The Shore vs. Miller - Moonlight Serenade

YMO - Chaos Panic vs. Nemo Egg- Thomas Newton Nemo Egg is something I listen to when I need to de-stress quickly. Went with my nom, but loved feeling the 80s in the first piece.

Shut Up And Dance- Vitamin String Quartet (Walk the Moon) vs. The Ocean - Bathyapelagic I: Impasses

Ladies in Lavender- Nigel Hess and Joshua Bell vs. Steve Vai - Tender Surrender Thought Ladies in Lavender was so beautiful when I heard it on the radio. Watched the movie- story was okay, but the music stayed with me.

Aphex Twin - Fingerbib vs. Steve Vai - For the Love of God First time listening to Fingerbib and enjoyed it a lot, even with the image of the album cover that kinda gave me the creeps.

Carlos Paredes - Verdes Anos vs. Miles Davis - Blue in Green Liked both but I've got a soft spot for Miles.

Shut Up and Dance was my nomination because I wanted to plug some Vitamin String Quartet. It's a lot of fun listening to their covers and waiting to see what they release next. If anyone was interested, here are some of the other covers I considered nominating:
The Cave- Mumford & Sons (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jy43Sp_eE7A)
Smooth Criminal- Michael Jackson (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XKbMWXrECO0)
Poker Face- Lady Gaga (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IN8DPNDN-6E)
Best Day of my Life- American Authors (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ecb51btpfDo)

Acker Bilk - Stranger On The Shore vs. Miller - Moonlight Serenade
I've come to the conclusion Random.org is just plain cruel, pitting the two Bach tunes against each other yesterday and now these two iconic tunes today. Voting with my nom but that really is the sole reason as it's nigh on impossible for me to split these two - feel free to insert an appropriate stock phrase of your choice here.

Round 1 - Day 4

"Wuthering Heights" (Cathy's Theme) - Alfred Newman vs. Unveiled - Hildur Gudnadottir
This tournament is already worthy because I discovered Hildur. Newman's alright, not quite my thing though.
Tonomura - Ducktales NES Moon Theme vs. Variations 1-4 - Andrew Lloyd Webber
Honesty, hated both! :( Just hated that strange thing they did to Lloyd Webber's music a tiny bit more.
Acker Bilk - Stranger On The Shore vs. Miller - Moonlight Serenade
Glen Miller is one of my favourite jazz musicians of all time, and Moonlight Serenade of my favourite songs, so not really hard for me to decide! Bilk is great too, though!
YMO - Chaos Panicvs. Nemo Egg- Thomas Newton
Shut Up And Dance- Vitamin String Quartet (Walk the Moon) vs. The Ocean - Bathyapelagic I: Impasses
Just love the power of The Ocean!!! Great song!
Ladies in Lavender- Nigel Hess and Joshua Bell vs. Steve Vai - Tender Surrender
Tender Surrender is one of my favorite guitar solos of all time! Just watching Vai playing it is a demonstration of pure class! I would have choose it even if it wasn't my nomination. But I admit it's not an easy choice because Ladies in Lavender is beautiful!
Aphex Twin - Fingerbib vs. Steve Vai - For the Love of God
Carlos Paredes - Verdes Anos vs. Miles Davis - Blue in Green
Of all the draws with my own nominations, this was the only one I admit I could have serious doubts! Blue in Green is a legendary song from probably the best album in jazz history. Carlos Paredes, for those who don't know him, is the master of the portuguese guitar, an instrument with a beautiful sound as you can hear. The specific song is very cherished by portuguese university students because it's part of a great tradition.

Round 1 - Day 5

Faure - Pavane for a Dead Princess vs. Raymond Scott Quintet - Powerhouse - Love the Faure, it's beautiful and haunting but Powerhouse is playful, I felt I needed that in work today! Both of these should go through really!
Philip Glass - Osamu's Theme vs. Massenet - Meditation (from "Thais") - I do like the Massenet, but I liked the music from Mishima A Life in Four Chapters, one of the best things about a film I struggled through.
Autechre - M62 vs. The Shadows - Apache - this is a classic British track. Autreche is good but the Shads are ace
Shaw - Nonstop Flight vs. 14 Ghosts II - Nine Inch Nails - Like it!
Polyphia - Finale vs. Dead Combo - Povo que Cais Descalço enjoyed Dead Combo. Played it a few times, very nice guitar work
Elmer Bernstein - Theme to The Magnificent Seven vs. The Residents - Diskomo 2000 - the theme to the Magnificent Seven is epic, and sweeping, and really evocative of those wide open spaces.
Symphony 41, "Jupiter", 4th Movement - Mozart vs. Dream Theater - Dance of Eternity - I thought I'd go for the classical track, but Dream Theater won me over
Star Wars Soundtrack - Mos Eisely Cantina * * (alt. version for Europe) vs. Aphex Twin - Girl/Boy * * (alt. version for Europe) - Aphex Twin for me

Pigbag - Papa's Got A Brand New Pigbag vs. Youngblood Brass Band - Brooklyn - damn these two are great , just the sort of thing I like - great big sounds from people who play like they're having an amazing time , really enjoyable. Shame one has to go
Herrmann - Taxi Driver Main Title vs. Hella - Biblical Violence
Jack White - High Ball Stepper vs. Michael Nyman - Swan Rot
Rossini - William Tell Overture vs. Sunshine OST - Kaneda's Death - I am old enough to remember the Adventures of William Tell a 1960s tv series, great swashbuckling stuff and this song reminds me of it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eqrvrk9gEwg
Autechre - Dial vs. Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs - Flint Hill Special - I have a real fondness for the banjo and bluegrass music and Flatt and Scruggs are the masters
The Delta - Delta Skelter vs. Verdi - La Traviata
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain vs. The Budos Band - Budos Rising - like this one!
Yann Tiersen- Frida vs. Kalifa and Moustapha Dembélé - instrumental for balaphon and n'goni from Segou, Mali - Frida is good, and I loved Yann Tiersen's music for Amelie, but the Malian music is really great. I spent an excellent afternoon listening to West African music but it was hard to find one where the crowd weren't clapping and whooping with delight during the singing :D I love the idea that the griots pass the music down through lots of generations and it's still going.

Once Upon a Time in the West - Man with Harmonica Theme vs. Mr Bloe - Groovin' with Mr Bloe
That Mr Bloe track is pretty groovy, but, no disrespect to him, Morricone is god. No contest for me :/

Elevation - Hildur Gudnadottir vs. Maybe I'm Amazed - Paul McCartney
As much as I love paul, that Hildur Gudnadottir track is really pretty. I'm a pretty major drone/ambient/whatever fan, and it's nice. Also, she worked with Throbbing Gristle, so that's cool.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - World Police and Friendly Fire vs. Night - John Carpenter
I actually just gave Lift Yr. Skinny Fists a spin. I like John Carpenter, but that movement is incredibly beautiful. I actually gave that John Carpenter album a listen a little while back, and liked it a lot. I should do that again. But still, my bias is always going to be toward godspeed.

Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue vs. NOMO - Brainwave
Rhapsody in Blue is really nice, but NOMO is a personal favorite, and that's a really good track.

Uematsu - Final Fantasy VI Terra's Theme vs. Once There was a Hushpuppy- Dan Romer, Benh Zeitlin
Beasts of the Southern Wild was a great film with a great soundtrack, but the entire FF VI ost is forever ingrained in my brain.


King Curtis - Soul Twist vs. Prokofiev - Suggestion Diabolique
I really love low, fast, dissonant piano music, do it's gonna have to be the Prokofiev record.

Eric Dolphy - Hat & Beard vs. Antonio Vivaldi - "Summer" from four seasons
I hate to do this, but my that's the best song from my favorite jazz album. Sorry.

Shostakovich - Romance (from The Gadfly) vs. Oliver Messaien - Quartet Pour La Fin Du Temps (Movement 5)
While really, really good, the Shostakovich recording is a little too easy on the ears for my taste. That's sort of splitting hairs, but the Messaien piece is a favourite of mine, so it's gonna be that.

Round 1 - Day 8 (pt 2)

Antonio Vivaldi - Four Seasons (Winter) vs. How to be a Werewolf- Mogwai - I like the Four Seasons but love Mogwai. That track is off the album of music for the French mystery series Les Revenants of which the music they use for the opening is brilliant. Can't wait for the second series.
Kondo - Super Mario World Ending Theme vs. Antonio de Lucena - Estudo Cano - Like I said before I'm too old for computer music to produce nostalgia votes, but Estudo Cano is good too so voted for that :)
Saint-Saëns - Aquarium vs. Purcell - March (from Funeral of Queen Mary) - I knew Aquarium before. I always thought it was particularly mysterious, but never knew what it was called or who it was by, so that's my thing learnt for today! The March is fantastic, but too sombre for today
Theme from "Psycho" - Bernard Herrmann vs. Duke Ellington and his Kentucky Club Orchestra - East St Louis Toodle-Oo - Of course the theme from Psycho is a masterpiece of film music, but the other one is mine and as I don't see it getting many votes. It's a very dinky track which I've liked it since I heard it when I bought Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic years ago. When I was compiling my list I went and traced it back and found this great Duke Ellington version. I like it anyway :)

Sadly aye, really. Only in round 1 do I ensure no two pieces from the same participant are matched together, from round 2 onwards it can and does happen. I've had a look ahead and two of mine are pitted against each other on Day 4 of this round too. It's the way these tournaments have been managed (aside from the rare exception where even in round 1 participants songs could go against each other) since I joined the site.

Yeah I'm fine with it. I was just surprised those two songs were up against each other this early.

Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue vs. Herrmann - Taxi Driver Main Title
Hardest match-up in this round, went for Rhapsody in Blue because I could probably listen to it until the end of time

I agree! What do you think of that version ? Gershwins own. I like it's snazziness. It seems more playful that some of the other sexier versions

I am SO sorry for missing it! I just had a horrible migraine. I honestly considered coming on here just to do this, but I just couldn't do anything. My migraines are usually a two day process of being unwell and then "recovering". Again, I am very sorry.

But that is the ONLY one that I missed, right? I just want to make sure that I am not accidentally skipping anything that I could still vote on today. :)
