Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

after much deliberation, the winner of the Lighthouse Music Contest is Winterwind-NS! he will be scoring me and jenna's cartoon and we're really excited to work with him. check out his music! we finally have a date for when it will first be shown - december 5th. where i can't say, but it will be local. later on we will be putting it online as well.

we want to thank everyone who submitted a piece and took part in the contest. it was not easy deciding and we enjoyed all your submissions.

also, congratulations to ry99an for winning the heroes vs villains contest after 3 intense rounds. she won a whopping $65 (redeemable anywhere in the world), and a free weekend pass to tweenland, my theme park dedicated to legendary frog, opening in 2050.

the next contest starts today and is already at $45. the theme? anything halloween! entries due halloween day, or whenever the topic is closed, which is usually at 4 in the morning. we take art, music, animation, whatever you got. we had just under 20 participants last contest - so if you make something good, chances are you'll get a shot at the top. GOOD LUCK

and have some boo chips

Hell, I might give it a shot this time. Is poetry, fiction and/or voice acting acceptable? Or is it too lame for a contest?

Congrats on being able to have Winterwind-NS compose a score for your piece, sure to upgrade it's worth and beauty. I've seen screencaps and parts of the cartoon and I can tell that the visuals combined with the audio will orchestrate beautifully.

Can't wait to see this.

Oct. 17, 2009 | 6:18 PM rtil responds:

Winterwind-NS has some of the most unique melodies in this site, and certainly one of the most talented composers from this generation. He certainly is your best choice.

Looking forward to it.
