ADSactly Music Initiative #04
We would like to apologize for being a little bit absent with this Initiative for the past few weeks, as our producer has been traveling all over the world, and trying to mix and edit music while on the go, is a bigger mission than you can imagine. We will be back in full swing by next week and willl be going with full steem ahead.
Introduction
We got together and decided we wanted to do something in the music space, as there are so many budding, talented musicians on the Steemit platform. We noticed that, although there were a lot of people posting, it felt like some of the contributors could use a little helping hand. I mean, who wouldn't want a little helping hand, right?
So where could WE add value? We could use our own in-house production people to help develop music for fellow Steemians looking for that little extra audio assistance.
We'll be running an initiative whereby Steemians can post their links below, and if the criteria are met (please read the criteria), we'll dig in with them and help mix their track, or add some instruments that they feel are missing from their song, or some little production techniques. If there isn't actually a post that our producer can work with, we might even just decide to give one of the entrants a bit of upvote love.
As time goes by and we put together enough collaborated content, we will then upload this content to digital stores (iTunes, Spotify, Deezer, etc.) and release a compilation album.
The other avenue where we would like to add value is to sync the music to commercials to try and develop some additional passive income for the artists.
Where will this go?
....Only time will tell!
Now that we've actually done one round of this initiative, I think it can give you guys and gals a better idea of what we're trying to achieve here.
How does it work?
- Comment below with your Steemit post, DSound link or Soundcloud link (or another platform that you would prefer to use). Must be within 7 days of this post.
- Upvote this post
- Join the ADSactly Discord Community
- Please try make sure you have independent audio files that we could actually work with in production
- @ADSactly picks a winner (Please check back in the comments for this)
- The winner receives a consultation over discord to discuss the direction moving forward on the track.
- Our in-house producer does the work, sends it back to the winner, and they upload it to DSound with a guaranteed upvote from @ADSactly
- We'll report back with the results in the following post so you, our followers, can keep track.
Disclaimer: Sometimes it might the case that out of all the entries, there isn't a post that can be worked with effectively; whether its due to a winner not getting back to us, or there being insufficient or inferior audio separates to work with. In this case we'll pick a song or track to show some love to.

Our Previous Winner
We’ve decided that we gotta just show some upvote love for @edprivat today.
It's a really smooth soul track with just the right amount of hip hop added in for colour, and some awesome vocals which creates a perfect balance between the elements. Some trumpet or strings could be a great addition to this track, but as it is right now, it's a great song. Please go give it a listen by clicking the link below, and also go check out some of @edprivat other work. Another amazing singer, musician and producer from South Africa.
Due to his initial track entry already being past the voting window period, and also due to us getting inundated with music work, we will be upvoting one of @edprivat more recent music posts.
Special thanks goes to all the other folks who submitted a post and who commented, they put some great music work on the platform. @djlethalskillz with another great track from his Steemit musician collaboration with @playitforward we really enjoyed it. Thanks to those who dropped us a link to your music track in our discord we did check them out.
Now what are you waiting for? Go and get that music post and link them in the comments...Don't forget to check up in the "How It Works" section to make sure you submit within the parameters. Lets have some fun with music!

Thanks so much for the support, this is fantastic ! I agree with you , the track needs trumpets, or strings. or even both :) . I am very open to anything that Ross Dabone a.k.a @heypapalegend cause it's always dope advice! Keep in mind that it's a work in progress, so it will get polished down the line
Thank you again!
Apologies accepted and yes, everything takes time. Everything takes a lot of efforts, even with results looking very simple. Even though I’m not a musician at all (believe me you wouldn’t want to hear me playing on any instrument or to sing 😆), I’m glad your are giving hand to such an artists.
Congratulation to @edprivat and many others in the near future!
Thanks :)
Hi, my dear @adsactly sir... music is very important...Music is a kind of audible art that can create entertainment in the mind of the heart with consistent sound and nuance. The creation of music in the form of voice and sound. This sound may be the sound of human voices, the sounds of the instruments, or the combination of both. But in all cases the main vehicle of sound noise. In addition to the tunes, the music controller is the accompaniment of music. Music was originally created in combination with sound, tune and rhythm...
