Isn't 3068 tracks @ 3 mins per track 9204 minutes of music? Which is like, 6 days or something?

Good to hear you're on board!

I think I'm going to first try a systematic approach to composing music, and see how that goes, maybe something like:
Day 1: Pick theme / Studio setup / Create DAW template
Day 2: Chord structure / Mood / Maybe 2 movements / Key sig / etc
Day 3: Intro & solid structural guideline
Day 4: Finished song structure / movements / transitions
Day 5: Tweeking any bits, working on mix
Day 6: Render / upload
Do you think you will be boxing yourself in in some form or limiting certain thought processes by going about things in such a systematic way?

Topic: Personal Goals Beyond Writing 52 Tracks In 52 Weeks (60 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Okay, so of course the challenge here is to write a track a week for all of 2012. I was thinking that some of us probably have some goals that we want to achieve via WeeklyBeats - e.g. explore new ways of writing music, improve composition skills at one particular instrument, learn how to use new software or hardware etc.
Let's share some!
For me, I want to learn a few pieces of software that I've never used, including Renoise and PD for example. I would also like to write more music for interesting combinations of instruments, e.g. cello and chiptune. Additionally, I want to spend maybe a month or so building a piece of hardware each week, and then writing a new track for it each week.
I am not sure how feasible these ideas will be once the year actually begins, but it's nice to dream
