Contest Brief

Right! Looking for a wizard on the sound mixing scene who can create an alternative to music for Zumba and Aerobics classes.

So we're looking for:

[1] Tempo / beat: slow, medium and rapid
[2]Aggression
[3]Motivation

We're looking for a talented sound fx magician to create an alternative track to play alongside our Zumba and Aerobics classes to motivate members to push themselves in class.

What we can't have is any musical drums, string or synthesised music.

Some ideas we had are:

-Sci Fi sounds and soundbites from popular movies like Robocop.
-Distinct voice e.g from Mortal Kombat - and use this voice to say words we can provide (example name of our instructors, famous athletes and sports starts etc)
-use marching boots, heart beats at difference pace to create tempo and beat.
- use sirens . lightening other similar sound effects to create atmosphere of pace and aggression and urgency
- use motivational soundbites from famous people like Bruce Lee, Mohammad Ali, etc
- this is for an english urdu speaking audience so later on after this context ends, the winner will need to incorporate urdu soundbites which i will help source as well as english ones for which examples are given above.

I have given examples below just to illustrate points above but i am really relying on you guys to produce something electric!

Looking for a track with slow medium building up to fast, with Robo cop style count downs at minute intervals, all of which can be looped.

I don't understand a thing.. the 3 differents tempo are just in the first track or each track of the 3 must have 3 differents tempo?

Well every song has a different tempo: for example 140 bpm or beats per minute so if i give you a 135 bpm track it wont align correctly. Therefore, what tempo or what song would you use so i know which tempo to sync the track to?

  As this is for aerobics, i would use typical heart rate per minute in relaxed, light exercise and full on adrenaline:

The final result can't sound like music just using synthesised sounds. The actual sounds effects, sound bites should be authentic and create a track which is alternative to music but gives the same result required :

So how long do you want the back track to be 3-4 minutes?

  Just to give you some perspective here,
  
  My instructors who want to teach Zumba and Aerobics want a track with:
  
  - tempo
  -aggression
  -motivation
  
  but to find an alternative to music.
  
  So 3 types of tracks would be what we're looking for with main difference being the pace of the tempo and i suppose variation in motivational and aggression sound bites and fx:
  
  Pace:
  slow
  medium
  fast

  So each variation about 2-3 mins which could be looped.
