I could try emailing them from their BandCamp site. :) Do you think they would submit a song?

OK, sent, although, the automatic response from BandCamp says "Please allow 5-7 business days for a response" so even if they do get it and they randomly are interested it'll be tight timing. Also I listened to some of their music and it was very cool, TIL about them. Reminded me of Stereolab and the Talking Heads.

Did a j last night and wrote/recorded a ballad with soft harmonies about nature and shit. So I'm in. But might see where it goes and make changes along the way

Have an idea for this, biographical in the sense that everything I write any more is about getting old. My favorite line so far is, "Prince prints most of his lyrics / in a tiny purple font..." but I don't wanna give away too much. Tryin' to bring the reggae this time, wish me luck!

This is interesting... seeing that my song would have been about some Twin Princes... not the Purple kind... but... still...

I'm in. Same Rone goodness you've come to expect since I came back. Hoping the beat is seen as better than my previous efforts, because tbh that's the best part of this entry. Vocals are ok but not great.
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D

I'm in again this week. My life was back to being extremely mundane this week with lots of time to work on the track, after some surprises the week before that threw off my workflow. Put more effort into the mix per the comments from this week's fight, I definitely still have a lot to learn there though.

Night Sky is in, unfashionably late, with some extra special backing vocals and biographical lyrics drawn from mythology.
Night Sky is Sally on lyrics, Steve on drums, and Matt on the other stuff
