I've got a general ideal, need to finish it up this week. Edit: I just finished writing all the parts tonight. Start recording tomorrow.

Excellent!

Do you find stuff changing to accommodate once you start recording or do things tend to hold together pretty well for you?

I usually don't change the chord progressions unless I come across something that really grabs me. I might change some sounds/instruments depending on how things are blending together.  I usually do this in the writing, song building phase.  Once I start tracking I'm pretty set on what I want.

Mine is a pop song.  I'm not good at pop songs. Should be interesting.  I had a thought about the 30 day challenges.  Most writers won't like it.  Songs or noodles based around a particular theme, or emotion for that month.

It's feasible, although I guess some musical forms aren't as well suited to some themes.  Although, I'd pay a little fistful of money to get a melancholic EDM experience, so if anybody's got that up their sleeve, you need to be uploading on or around June 15th!

I don't really know what to call anything I do, but this time anyway I'm leaving out my usual melodic component for the sake of getting it to be more of a mood piece.

all minor key, and diminished EDM.lol
Two hours to tweak out 1 short piano part today.. yikes.  the song is melancholy, but not EDM. Although I could through in some 808 drums samples, and layer a bunch of synth parts over the top.

A good piece of progress anyway!  In June+July, I'll be a little tied up with writing again, but it'd be nice to try and keep up with challenges anyway.  It's been a winning idea so far!

Mm, coming down to the wire... here's to hoping the tracking phase goes nice and smooth!  I don't suppose anybody would be too put off if you wanted to make up for the vacation interruption by posting a few days late, but I'm looking forward to our uploads one way or another!

I agree It's the way the amp was originally intended.   I'll start entering the battle when I get a song finalized.  I leave tomorrow, I'll have to finish this one after I get back. I'm going to upload another shot of it, with some vocal stuff on it.. It's not done though.

We need to get the minimum vote quantity brought down to something reasonable, but I agree that it would be nice.

If you think about it, I think having the challenges end mid way through the month is ideal.  It gives people time to listen and vote before the current month ends, and if people want to post a few days early for whatever reason, it doesn't mess anything up this way.
