UPDATE - September 23rd, 2007 ========================== Third time completing the 50 song challenge. This time, I broke 3 hours of recorded music in less than 90 days. And I'm happy with most of it. Phew... UPDATE - September 10th, 2006 ============================ Well, I finished the 50 song challenge again, this time a little faster than last year. This notwithstanding that I had a baby on july 30th. I'm tired. But see you next year! UPDATE - September 14th, 2005 ============================= I finished the 50 songs challenge, using 69 of the 90 days provided (I started July 7th). This means that I have written and recorded a bit over 5 songs a week on average - from scratch every time. That's a lot, and I must admit, I'm tired. But it was a fantastic experience, in no small part thanks to the great environment of the Yahoo! group "50songs90days", where the challenge was taking place. It has been a great year for the challenge, I think, with all participants cranking out a lot of really great songs. See you next year.... Oh yeah, before I forget. Up there it says "49 songs available for download" and not "50 songs" -- but one of the mp3s, "Half Way There / Half Way Back" is a four-and-a-half-minute track consisted of two complete, seperate songs medleyed together. So I did actually do all 50 songs. :-) ------------------ Songs written from provided song seeds. Posted to the "50 song challenge" =============== Anyway, I'd like to try something. I work best in controlled, limited conditions, so I'd like to introduce the concept of a "song seed". A song seed consists of a key, a tempo and a first word or sentence for the lyrics. For instance, a key could read Seed: (G minor, 97 bpm, "Breathe in") Anybody who wants to, please post as many seeds for me as you want in this group. I will then concoct the songs starting from these parameters. Thanks Snogledk
