I'm just wondering - but see the month that we have to do it in, does that include making a music video too or do we just have to make the audio in that timeframe?

It's just the song. When someone finishes, I'll be asking for a wav of the song so I can put it in the 3 month compilation album.

I started a project on 4/6, so I'll try joining the challenge and finishing by 5/6

I've created a draft album on Bandcamp that I'll be adding everyone's songs to until the compilation is released on June 30.

Ah, this sounds really great!!

Although one thing I'd say is to vary the energy level through the song? It's staying pretty much at the same amount in the whole thing. Some things you could try to experiment with could be adding or removing instruments, or with the amount of vocals at the same time and the harmonies. Maybe using filters and automating them. When it sounds mostly the same, it doesn't really feel like there's much getting my attention and keeping me listening to the entire song.

Thanks for the feedback! I definitely see what you mean, I'll see what I can tweak.

Okay so I have a confession to make. I ended up picking a really bad month to do it, although at the time I didn't know it. My family bought a new house around a week after I started and even though we rushed out as fast as we could it still took pretty much half of my month to pack, move, and settle in. Which probably would have been manageable except I've got health issues particularly mental out the wazoo and my mom's an butt so I was completely drained of energy for the rest of it. I was honestly going to jump ship and disappear for a while to avoid facing my deadline but I did this thing a while back during the month and thought it'd be better to show that I did at least make some form of effort :cry:

TL;DR version of above is I don't have a "song" song to share because personal drama but I made this as an experiment so I figured I'd at least share the itty bitty singthesis thing that came out of me this month

I'm sorry about your situation. But what you have so far does sound lovely, and I think you could work on it! You're still free to do the song challenge again if you find a better time for it.
