Welcome to the official Music Studio / Record Label draft picks and discussion thread. Most of the basics were covered in the interest thread, but I'll post a quick refresher for you here:
-We are drafting musicians with the goal of creating the best music studio possible. This means, essentially, amassing the most creative talent possible. The artists you draft can work together, or separately (and will have full access to studio session musicians for any projects they want to take on). Your goal should not be strictly commercial success, or (to a certain degree) strictly critical success, but to make music that is well-regarded and influential and timeless.
-The draft will last 14 rounds. The final four rounds will be double picks. The draft will start with reverse snake for the first four rounds before going to reverse order regular snake for the remainder. The draft snake will look like this: A - B - B - A - B - A - B - A - B - A - BB - AA - BB - AA.
-You will have 12 hours from the time you are on the clock to make your selection. If someone notices you are online at the forums and it's your turn, you will have one hour from the time you are first seen online to make your selection. In both cases you will be skipped when your time expires.
-All picks must come with a writeup, complete in format with a link to a youtube clip of a song by the artist (or other example of his work) followed up by the artist and writeup in spoiler.
-As commissioner, I reserve the right to force anyone to make a selection if I feel they are intentionally stalling the draft, and to remove / replace any owner I feel is insufficiently participating.
-Trading picks is allowed, but holding up the draft to squeeze out the best possible offer is not. Double picks must be traded in tandem, not broken up.
-Anyone who has made recorded music in some capacity as an artist since 1950 is eligible. Record executives who are strictly businessmen are not eligible.
