ADSactly Music Initiative #14
ADSactly Music Initiative #14
Hello all you amazing Steemians and Merry Christmas. Well it's not Christmas just yet, but pretty much almost there and we might not see you until after Santa has come and gone. We would like to thank everyone for what has been an awesome year and we could not have done any of this, if it wasn't for this amazing Steem community. We have met some truly wonderful people and discovered interesting as well as beautiful composed and produced track from all over.
A very big shout out everyone at @ADSactly for providing this platform, where we are able to curate music from all over Steem, and support the folks who work tirelessly to create amazing music.
In the words of Michael Bublé, "Have a holly jolly Christmas!" and hopefully Santa brings us a $5 Steem price for Christmas.
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!
How does it work?

- @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 would like to give some upvote love to @nickyhavey for a killer drum and bass track, to get you in the summer groove. Love the high energy in this track, it's the kind of track Santa Claus listens to while he travels across the world in a single night delivering gifts to all the boys and girls. Thanks for the submission @nickyhavey great song and hope life is a little less paced over the next week or two.
Please be sure to join our discord server and look out for the adsactly_music_initiative channel, where you can drop your music link as well as chat to us and others about all things music. We look forward to seeing some amazing new music tracks and projects, as well as meeting all the musicians who have come to Steem.
Now what are you waiting for? Go and get that music post and link it in the comments...Don't forget to check up in the "How It Works" section to make sure you submit within the parameters. Let's have some fun with music!

Certainly, Christmas is near and I like that the whole atmosphere is permeated with joy and this is often accompanied by a lot of music. I hope that this initiative to support so many talents will continue for next year, the work they develop is admirable. Congratulations to @nickyhavey for his deserved recognition. Ah, I hope, too, that your wish to raise the steem will come true, hahaha. happy holidays to all.
Thanks so much for the upvote love on Rocket Ship! A lovely surprise :)
I would love to put forward a mixdown I've done of a Drum & Bass remix of @wavdr and @soundlegion's amazing "Heavyweight" track.
It's a private Soundcloud embed link so hope it works (it got aired on @d-vine's @msp-waves Spotlight on the Artist a few weeks back):
Interesting musical work by @nickyhavey. There really is something aerial and sidereal about it (about your comment on Santa Claus' trip), and very dynamic effects. Thanks for sharing, @RossDabone & @MorkRock. Merry Christmas!
we love @adsactly everyday anyday woohoo
