Introducing my theme for this month's challenge. Awesome, you're really getting better month by month. I like the bass and how it in some sort of way provides the main melody line. But now it's quite far away dwelling in the midst of tails of other instruments. I would test what would happen to the...

Filename Template : SWC000_ArtistName_TrackName.wav and/or .mp3 Could this be "SWC000_ArtistName_TrackName_versionnumber.wav" That added optional "_versionnumber" would make it easier to check if I have sent the latest version. And not the earlier version that happened to be wit...

Hello everybody, this is my entry for this month. A very slow and very minimal song, only 4 Instruments and my distorted voice, talking about my depression.

Re: SONGWRITING COMPETITION - SWC061 September 2022 - Submissions until 24-09-2022 23:59 UTC+2/CEST

The only instrument that I can play on a stage is the bass and it's the only aspect of the song that I feel poor. May be that it's sufficient just a mix adjustment, but I think that the only thing that can be better on this song is the bass that doesn't "walk" as it would/could. I feel th...

Verse + chorus + verse - and then nothing, so far. Maybe someone has an opinion? As to: can you have both organ and strings in the same song? Any other comments? (WIP = work in progress) You have two nice totally different parts. One with an accented guitar riff and another smoothly flowing part. B...
