Rule 4 ....Is this a Porsche rule ?

Not at all, it concerns those that 'upgrade' cheap guitars, making 'em cheaper still, but more expensive, that's all.:lol:

...

Oh, and no bagpipes, neither. :|

Had an afternoon free so I thought I'd be first in with a daft'n'funky little thing about a ridiculous climbers route in Llanberis slate quarries linking areas such as Dali's Hole, California, Lost World, Mordor by the use of rusty old ladders, enormous in situ chains and 50m abseils into deep holes...

Well done, I dont think there will be many BC ers entering this month. The number of entries in past months have been poor.

I'll add another one into the deluge of entries... not been feeling very inspired musically for a while. It is what it is, recorded tonight and mixed over headphones so probably all over the place !

I’m struggling myself this month , if I get a chance tomorrow I’ll try to get in at the death , I have got some lyrics but I can’t seem to get the musical bit :facepalm:

I’ll soon be back into the swing of this after a long hiatus! My day job is still an obstacle (but good to be busy); more a case of me working on room acoustics (DIY, slow process) and my gear never being quite set up altogether for creating compositions… but that will soon change as the room is very nearly now finished.

Probably won’t make it in time for this month, but hoping to be back in the saddle for March :)

Don’t get too good, too soon , I’ve enjoyed some little success in the voting with you on hiatus 😉

anyway don’t distract me , I’ve got a tune now, but the words I wrote don’t work with it , this will end up proper odd :facepalm:

My shift work is an obstacle too, constantly trying to catch up with sleep  also having to set up everything every time I record ain't fun.

The woodland sound in the song is the actual natural sound of the Woodland in the photo. I recorded the Woodland sound on my Android phone whilst hiking there.

this is a last ditch effort , I really had 2 completely different concepts in mind for the words and  tune , still, I have crowbarred them together with a great deal of WTAF  !

I didn't embed properly so I inserted links instead. It all went wonky when I tried to upload an improved mix, I don't pay the pro subscription, so I started over. Maybe it takes the Soundcloud a minute to catch up?

*edit Soundcloud had added -1 to the end of the link as the tune name was the same. Oddly, both links worked, but only the -1 version would embed.

I cant find the thing at all , I cant see a link just a broken enbededment   ,......that should be a word

Phew!

Is voting up yet?  Haven't seen it yet. Kinda thin on the ground this month :(

I wondered too. I could have spent more time on mastering process not rushing it.
