Join the Pony.fm Alpha!


Twilight Sparkle ✨

7,002 views

I'm looking to build a dedicated quality assurance (QA) team to be Pony.fm's alpha testers and shape the site's direction in its earliest stages.

 

At this time, I'm looking for people who:

  • create (or have created) MLP:FiM fan music
  • are interested in uploading their fan music to Pony.fm
  • will report bugs they run into
  • will provide feedback on what's good, what isn't, and what's missing
  • enjoy trying new things!

QA staff will have access to a private forum where they can communicate directly with me and their fellow testers to share their experiences, request features, and directly influence the development of Pony.fm.

 

If you're interested in joining the QA team, let me know in a comment on this blog entry, send me a private message, or email me at feld0@mlpforums.com, and I'll add you to it.

Non-artists will have a chance to join the testing soon enough! Keep up with the blog, and I'll let everyone know when that phase of testing is open. Thanks for your interest. smile.png

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice to have two more musicians! I added both of you to the team, so go check out and subscribe to the QA forum.

 

@JTAC: Pony.fm is a music hosting site, not a radio station, so there won't be a show to participate in. The approach I'm taking is to invite third-party radio stations to partner up and license Pony.fm's music for use on their own stations. However, I've had some thoughts about creating an in-house radio station of our own. If that ever goes anywhere, I'll let you know.

 

@Apple-Jack: No need to write any new music specifically for Pony.fm - having some you've already done that you can upload is good enough (though the hope is that you'll like Pony.fm enough to put up all your future music on it as well wink.png). Glad to have you on board!

i'm glad to join the project and actually we (me and a friend) are going to get a new song in about 2 weeks if that's ok

:P feld0 is master (sorry for this it just came in my mind)

I've made one song already and I'm currently working on three others at the moment. I'd be happy to assist you.

 

You're in. Thanks!

 

 

I'd love to help. I can report bugs, and give feedback on it. Count me in!

 

Do you make any music, CrystalJack? Just want to make sure, because you didn't say if you were a musician and I can't find any music of yours in Octavia's Hall.

I'm game to join up and help out the alpha testing! I only have 2 pony fan made songs, so I hope this is enough to help out.

Hey, alpha is out now! It seems that this is moving in a favorable direction.

I'd love to join in on something like this - I'll need to render some of my currently unpublished works later tonight, but that can be taken care of in a relatively short amount of time. I can't wait to see how this turns out. ;)

It most definitely is. I appreciate your interest, and have added you to the alpha team!

Awesome! I added you to the team, CloudFyre. The actual alpha is not quite open yet, but it's getting there. Come over to the QA forum and join the discussions there in the meantime while I get the last few bits and pieces in place for the alpha testing.

 

 

 

Adding music? That requirement alone might cost me the position...

 

However, I have UNO track I could upload.

 

Can I join?

 

Absolutely. A track's a track, as long as it's a pony fan track (non-pony music does not have a place on Pony.fm at this time). Welcome aboard!

I would love to be apart in this but I have not made fan music. :( If it is alright could I at least know an estimated time it will be coming out?

Link to comment

I have never created any music, and i have no experience with programing.(Well, i do know the basics)

 

But if you even need someone to give you feedback, i guess i can help you out in some cases. Let me know if you need me.

 

Basically this user just said it for me.

I'm currently working on a song about Spike and his inner greedy self.

But I have no idea when it will be finished. When I make music, which is not that often, it takes time for my creativity to get going.

Either way I'd like to help in any way I can.

Oh, crap! If possible you totally gotta add me. This seems like the kinda thing I'd like to do. And yeah, I do and have done pony moosics. :D

Do you have any pony songs that are already finished? There is no requirement to limit your Pony.fm uploads to new music that hasn't been released before, but this alpha testing stage will involve uploads.

 

When I try to register it says that parasites invaded the site XD.

 

Registration isn't enabled yet. :P Not that it's necessary for you, anyway - your MLP Forums account will function at Pony.fm.

I've wrote 2 pony songs... Well parody that talk about ponies. I had then posted on YouTube then I made a video with music I didn't own then they shut me down. So I have no music to upload.

I have been making little conversations by clipping the episode audio and adding some good old 8 bit beats to it, If you would give me a chance I would love  to post what I have been making! I know I am a blank flank here but I love to make fan fiction and songs. I have never posted them yet because i have not found the music section.

Did you keep a local copy of your songs around? On Pony.fm, you upload music from your computer; YouTube isn't involved in any way.

The music section is "Fan Music" in Octavia's Hall. ;)

 

That you're a new member here doesn't make you any less eligible to be a part of the Pony.fm alpha. As a matter of fact, I think it's really cool you want to get involved with this project this early into your stay at MLP Forums. :D

 

I've added you to the team, so make yourself at home in the Pony.fm QA forum.
