I'm in. I'm out north east, but currently only have sporadic access to my own transport, so somewhere in town, the EMU for instance, would be ideal at least for the first meet up. I'm a UniSA student, though, so I can't get us in ;P

I write what feels right at the time. I honestly don't know enough about electronic sub-genres to hazard a guess as to what I write in-PC, although when I write on the guitar it leans towards light rock/pop with a heavy grunge influence.

I'd love to meet up and hang out with some of my fellow adelaide people, but 'jamming' isn't really on the cards for me in the traditional sense. I'm happy to sit in and throw ideas around on a track or something, but I have no performance gear... yet >.<

Alternately, just hanging out with new muso peeps would be cool, too

A way around is for each participant to agree from the outset who posts (featuring the collaborator), and whoever doesn't decides if they want to pump out another track or not. I'd even be tempted to break the 'song a week' dynamic for a collab and spend a couple working over it, so that it gets in the way as little as possible.

Then, the person that doesn't just adds a listing to their profile of songs they appear in, with links.

Seems the most sensible, if slightly cheating, way of doing it.

I found this week easier, actually. I'm uploaded and ready to go.

I pretty much hold on to every musical idea I get on to some kind of recording medium, even if it's just a piece of paper, forever, so when I'm stuck I go over old ideas, to see if maybe I can come at an old concept from a new angle. That helps me a lot of the time. Alternately, a nice and quick shoddy cover of something helps, too. Not to publish, but to warm up with.
