Are you talking about the 20 to 50 song clips posted to Discover every hour, all day, every day, from every country?  It sure is a massive number of postings, and some of them are very good, especially the vocal pieces.  I don't know the breakdown, but it looks like 50% Figure, 40% Take, and 10% Reason.  It looks like Props staff do about 1-2% of the postings.  Would be nice to know, Mattias.  And I sure would like to be able to email some of those vocalists for collaboration.

I'm not that familiar with Discover.  I only visited the 1st week it was announced/opened.  I was very underwhelmed so I figured I would check back later.


So are you serious there is no way to contact the people who uploaded content?  That seems like a major oops for a platform that is encouraging worldwide collaboration.  How did the "contact uploader/artist" stay off their radar?  I'm sure that is something that will (must) change in the future, shouldn't it?  It's kind of a no-brainer.  Was this a Propellerhead brain-fart or was it left off intentionally?

I thought that the new profile pages linked with song pages?

Although it appears as though pm's went the way of the dodo along with the PUF, there are 'elsewhere' buttons that I guess people can customize with twitter, email etc.

Define "professional tunes"?

I believe all of the content is created by a crack team of ex-producers now holed up just outside of Omaha. It's hard to believe, but it's all the work of three producers, working tirelessly around the clock to create the illusion this new feature has been a huge success.

Ouch!

Grum.

...I thought that the new profile pages linked with song pages?...

Ah yes, you can add links to your webpage, soundcloud, etc in your profile.  Very good.  Unfortunately, lots of the good vocalists I checked out don't have profiles or don't have links.  Lots of singers seem to just use it to add their singing with Take and that's it.  Hopefully Props will make it known that singers should add profiles with links.

Yeah, pm's would have to be the best option I think. Still not sure why they didn't think to integrate discover into the forums, instead of just tearing it all down...

[jfrichards]

It would be a great feature if one of the genres, or categories, added to Discover was "Singer Available for Collaboration".  That would help me a lot.  Of course as soon as any collaboration got serious, you'd have to take it out of the realm of Discover to protect it.  So far, I've heard about 40 great singers from ten different countries.  Even if I just got one or two for collaboration, that would be cool.

"professional tunes"
i mean this is not a singalong on the way to the kindergarden. yes i must be a great success and the props are on the right track !
i never thought this could work !

Not so sure that that cesspool of negativity would have been the best place to encourage a giant bunch of young musicians armed only with cell phones.  ReasonTalk is a 178 degree turn away from what the PUF became.  It would be wonderful if all new Reason users found out about ReasonTalk.

Although sometimes even such a singalong can be powerful, professional and deep art:

We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher leave those kids alone

All in all it's just another brick in the wall...

Wouldn't surprise me if all that stuff was indeed fake and ghost-produced to keep up appearances. Take is pretty much worthless.

[zeebot]

Im just amazed you can get professional tunes from an app on a phone. Seems i wasted a lot money setting up my gear

In all seriousness im still not at all convinced by discover. The contents are still pretty much crap, that of course is my personal opinion

If you're away from your studio and you have an idea for a song that involves more than one "line", and you use Reason, it has value I would think. I have been in situations where this would have definitely come in handy for me. Take isn't for everyone any more than Reason is for everyone…

I've got an Android... so it certainly ISN'T for me.
