well with much humility I'll say that I'm grateful to anyone who listens to mine even though it fits this description. I'm haranguing my poet friend to write shorter though.ujnhunter wrote:In response to: FluffyMikeB on Twitter "I want very badly to write a 5+ minute epic. But would anyone listen to it all the way through?"
Unfortunately probably not. Unless you actually record an "epic". If you are going to take an out of tune guitar, and a drum loop and some random midi notes, and "rone" over top of it all for 5+ minutes, then the answer is "no".

Notes for reviews: "Stronger vocal" means several things at once. Tighter timing, more confident pitch, arranging in your range.
If I'm not commenting on your drums it means they were pretty good.

I was struck with the crazy idea at 9:30 this morning to try to "Ross one out". I finished around 11:20, mixed and sent.
As I did not make the deadline, please feel free to disqualify me, I will take no offense.
It was an interesting exercise. By far the fastest I have ever written and recorded anything, and far from the way I usually like to work.

Anything I wrote or co-wrote counts as a song, as long as I also have a recording of me or somebody doing the song. Since our GU collaborations were really just me doing the instrumental track for a song where you wrote the music and lyrics, no, they don't count as songs I wrote, although the recordings are in the archive.Wages wrote:Welcome back Charles! I'm looking forward to listening to it. I'd love to help with at least one of the 40 remaining songs. Let me know if you want to do one for FAWM (14 songs in 28 days). Do you count Gawking Urethras songs toward to 960, or do you only count ones you write solo?

I'll be happy to help in any capacity towards the 1,000 mark. Feel like Cal Ripken much?
