Interesting idea . . . but it might take 100% of the fun away from Dan, our humble mod
expert only on what it feels like to be me

OMG, such a relief! Been working on the song all month, the family is so sick of it :)

5:4 ended up saving my butt by not sounding disjointed. Gives me some ideas for future songs :)

Had started something at home making use of the Fibonacci series & moves of the knight on a chess board and got a headache as a result.
So my modest entry this month is once again produced on Ipad .The Biblical title gives me the opportunity to mention that my favorite Vangelis ' album (still called Papathanassiou then) is the Aphrodite's Child opus named "666".

Might work, although some of us have been known to propose a theme and then not participate... :oops:

There are all sorts of reasons behind the level of participation, of course. My personal take on the rigorous truth about this contest:

1. If there are two entries, it's a competition.

2. If there are ten entries, everyone gets on the list. :party:

3. However, eleven or more entries means there's a chance that some of our transcendental works will not receive any votes. :cry: :hihi:

IMO, as long as a certain core of KVR members (you know who you are :wink:) continues to produce interesting pieces, the contest will go on as a worthwhile endeavor. :D

LOVED the theme, had a 2/4:3 idea I've wanted to use for years, but had no time to turn it into an actual song with lyrics, which is where my main inspiration comes these days.

So I decided not to force it: trying not to get burnt out by making it a "chore" this time around! Next month I'll have more time/inclination, hopefully.

So many people singing, I really wish I had that talent. Maybe next time I'll collaborate with a singer or something :)

Great job everyone on all the submissions!

Oopsie! It's done. Thanks.

Edit: No it's not. Soundcloud doesn't seem to want to save the changes.

I cannot make changes to any of my track entries.

What to do?

Here's a new upload with downloads enabled:

Hmm - logout of Soundcloud and back in again? Try using a different machine to change the settings? I can't see your new upload at all, and the original one is still not downloadable.

Ok, now the original should be downloadable.

Apparently SC didn't like my Firefox setup, had to use different browser.
