Leonard Smalls Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Here's my slightly leftfield offering. And there's no chickens, or "singing"! https://soundcloud.com/dredd-and-the-badass-weed/a-walk-on-the-cold-side Quote

And there's no chickens, or "singing"!... [/quote] Hmm. No, or very little, chance of capturing my vote then. Singing chickens are the new singing chickens. I'll maybe give it a listen later, but you're not stackin' 'em up in your favour. Reassure me... There is, at least, [i]some [/i]trombone..? Quote

[/quote] No 'bones, or wind of any sort (apart from the usual). Just bass, drums and piano. And of course, the high pitched whirring noise of Mussorgsky spinning in his grave! Quote

I almost tapped my feet. I'd have fallen over if I had, so I was lucky there, eh..? A definite twitch in the toes, though. Edited April 12, 2015 by Dad3353 Quote
Leonard Smalls Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 You know what twitching's the first sign of! Quote
Dad3353 Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Yes, it's all true; even my poor old Mum warned me, but would I listen..? Would I heck..! Still, the tablets seem to keep the worst at bay, except towards Michaelmas, when the Old Trouble comes kicks back in with a vengeance. Serves me right for going to Matching Mole concerts during a mis-spent youth. I'm proud to have survived The Edgar Broughton Band, though. Quote
CamdenRob Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Not going to get anything done this month I'm afraid gents, need to concentrate writing energies elsewhere with my limited time for music stuff, trying to get a new project off the ground. Looking forward to listening to all the entries looks like there might be a few newcommers as well Quote

xgsjx Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Mine's almost done. Hopefully get it posted in the next couple of days. Quote
BirchTree Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) Phew! I thought I wouldn't make it! It's always hard to translate your brain waves to /actual/ music, but I think I came pretty close to what I intended. I had a real blast, I'll definitely be trying my hand at future challenges.

xgsjx Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Here's my entry. I saw a bunch of Russians having an after party get together. Has the guy on the far right of the main crowd got an extra long smoke, and did it get passed to him from the smaller gathering that's just below him? They look wrecked! So... The Retreat. https://soundcloud.com/xgsjx/the-retreat Had I more time, I would have liked to added more lyrical ramblings & messed about with effects. Quote
BirchTree Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1429550241' post='2752514'] Very nice. [/quote] Thank you! Quote
the boy Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Not gonna make it this month. I have a cracking tune in the go but it's too complex etc to finish on time. I've had a really busy month and simply didn't find the time. Looking forward to the voting though. Good luck to all entrants. Quote
Lord Sausage Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) Also not gonna make it this month, which is a shame as I picked the pic. I've been too busy with the band as we've finally found a great drummer. So it's all been about learning songs this month! Edited April 23, 2015 by Lord Sausage Quote
Skol303 Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 [font=Helvetica][size=3] [size=4]G’day all. A quick post to call ‘last orders’ on this month’s compositions![/size][/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=3] [size=4]The deadline for entries is this evening at midnight… but I won’t be launching the voting thread until tomorrow morning (Friday), so you have all night if you’re keen to while away the wee hours in pursuit of creative greatness.[/size][/size][/font] [font="Helvetica"]I'm hoping to put something together for it this evening when I get home. Slapdash is the word [/font] Quote
lowdown Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Yeeks....I better get a move on. Started something today, going to try and get it finished tonight. A good mix, looks out of the question though....lol... Quote
Bleat Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Sorry, I also will not be able to submit a composition for this month. I had a really good idea on the go, but just haven't been able to get it sorted in time... hopefully I will be back in it for next month though. Good luck to all composers ! Cheers, James. Quote
