I have a horrible habit of working on around 5-6 songs at a time on LSDJ (probably from playing too much Pokemon, whatever) so there are definite long periods that I go without having a completed/cohesive song together.  I spent a super long time trying to find a new sound and to try to push the limits of my own composition for these next few releases, which will hopefully begin to show as the weeks progress.

All in all, I was proud of my submission for week 5, and overjoyed at the positive feedback I received.  It definitely serves an an incentive to keep producing tracks in a timely manner (as opposed to the beleaguered process mentioned before)

we dont want excuses.. we want tracks

This should be the topic in the IRC

I really just have no time to actually sit and write. I'd say maybe once this project is done i'll have time but another one will be started before this one is even done. maybe around mid march i'll have some time. for one song...

Aside from that I am definitely going to have some bad weeks soon. Hopefully I can hold them off as long as possible.

I fear it will compound to an un-catchup-able amount where I end up becoming just a contributor instead of a community member

Duder, I don't think anybody is going to judge someone for not listening to all 10,000,000 submissions on weekly beats, haha. I just listen to a randomly picked handful. Couple of my faves and a couple of people I see that are active in the forums. No biggie.

My track for this week took a different approach than I usually go for. I don't think it's as intense as my others, it sounds fairly natural with no annoying transitions, it turned out happier than what I usually make my songs to be, and I really liked it better than most of my others. It may be my favorite so far.

this is kind of how I feel about my piece as well
