The Song Fight Bulletin Board

I've tried (unsuccessfully) to do RPM a couple of times. I've got the writing bug right now but no real outlet so I went to google for motivational ideas and found songfight.org.

Works for me (I hope)

deshead's hometracked blog... which i think i found through digg?

I heard about it through word-of-mouth in 2000. (around the time of "Standing in the Death Car") There was a bit of a songfight gap that year, and I figured the site came and went... until earlier this year when I saw some songfight music on a friend's computer and I checked it out again.

I'm another who knew about it back in 2000, and listened to a lot of Kompressor, Frontalot, Add, JB, etc. I used to try and make music in a mod tracker, but gave up on music completely for some years. Then, in the past year I started up again, with slightly better software. And I bought a guitar.

So in the spirit of cooperation I'll post that I found a mention to Songfight on Josh Woodward's website this week. Thanks Josh, and btw your songs are great!

I heard MC Front a Lot bragging about it and thought it sounded like fun.

MC Frontalot's site. That is all.

I don't know how I first heard about it... I've visited a few times over the last couple of years or so but never stuck around. Then BabylonHoruv asked me to contribute dialogue for the track he did for "Love Me a Little Bit More" a few weeks ago, and I hung around a bit, then decided I wanted to give it a try myself.

Through wikipedia, strangely enough. No idea how I got to the article though.

From Ken.

a friend has provided me with musical help in the past, and he directed me to this wonderful place. thank you all for being here.

Jolly Roger???

HUH???

That avatar looks damn familiar.

You would not believe how long it took to dig up that post, too. I truly have no life.

"from Ken" should be a voting option.

Song Fight is mentioned prominently in the documentary "Nerdcore Rising", and that's where I found out about it.

Cool

watched NERDCORe Rising recently....thats all i need to find out lol

Word of mouth. Or, well, word of keyboard possibly. I heard about it around the time it started up, while in college; whether from a fellow music dork or a fellow computer nerd is now pretty much unknowable. Did memepool ever mention it? It's the sort of thing I would have seen on memepool.

Let's pretend I read about it on memepool.

heard about it on remixfight

i was browsing netflix and watched "nerdcore rising" and really dug the idea behind the site... that's bout it

Through FAWM.ORG users. Many also participated in songfight...but I just wasn't into violence at the time.

Interesting story actually... I like randomly Wikipedia-ing things, so I think this is how it went down:
Looked up Optimus Rhyme --> Clicked "nerdcore" --> Clicked "MC Frontalot" --> Clicked "SongFight!". That sounds about right.
