Hey WBs!
I uploaded my track for week 8 2020 and for some reason only 20 seconds of it uploaded. Can you please send me a resubmit link to try again? I am not sure what happened!!
Since it appears you have already deleted the track, here is a fixed link for week 8!
Primary Intention still OK)
- I am finding even just forcing around 1 hr at BARE MINIMUM to a track is viable in a pinch which usually is a hardware jam or opening up Reaktor (shortcuts))
- It's exercise and keeps me thinking about production. - Can be fun, can be boring, can go either way. - But it's still exercise.
-- (4+hours is my preferred for a more polished tune, and then it also allows me to tick a few more of those intention boxes too if i'm lucky to have the available mental bandwidth and creativity levels and the time-frame to pull that off
<- I feel like that exhaustion level gets reset each week after uploading, and listening to some new tracks too also helps reinvigorate the drive)
**Please keep tagging your music everyone, sometimes I need a good dose of 'drone' 'ambient' to help me think and work & focus during the week.
Especially you MAXMSP/modular nerds, your my favorites right now - I don't understand your black art, but i appreciate it!**
So 2020 Intentions I've actually kept, -- My project folder collection quality control has already improved - (i'm overdue to sync it with my NAS actually rather than my unsorted desktop folder)
but i'm not really reaching my other intentions as often as I would like so far (ie, a video, some source files released, etc)
So long as intention to create music is met, I'm real glad.
I've learned to treat each week as exercise (audio-gym), which often turns into surprising fun, and may snowball into filling back up my other intentions when all these time/space/mental/creativity drive factors align up..
hi! i realized i uploaded the wrong file that i exported, the one i just uploaded for week 4 was missing a channel
can i reupload pls?
Hey, amnesty granted! - Delete your broken week 4 - then use this link
https://weeklybeats.com/music/upload?ha … 5394e2c00a
Oops, starting off this week's requests... Looks like I uploaded while I was exporting last-minute or something, and the tail end got cut off of my track this week. Would I be able to get a re-upload link?
Hey, still counts 
Sure - you need to delete your broken week 4 track first and then upload using this:
I was thinking the fix might be applied to my user too! Or maybe that fix is what broke my username? Not sure! Otherwise please change my username to remove any E whatsoever, I will just be Ngineer.
In this mean time this link works to my latest song!
Yo,
I've changed your username to 'Ngineer'
*not sure if capitalized... (can probably tweak that, lmk*
Check your links now? -- They'll all be 'https://weeklybeats.com/ngineer/****musicthings**** now minus the broken character
hi, clicked upload 10 mins before deadline but my upload speed is currently averaging at 0.07mbps
No worries,

It looks like the URL parsing has an issue with your username,
We could try changing your username? the "Σ" is the character that's faulting,
Interestingly enough, Trash80 fixed a character issue here recently, i wonder if the same fix could be applied to yours, https://weeklybeats.com/forums/post/92331/#p92331
Hey ya
Not really, once the upload is up, it's in the system, and then the comments are added too it, it's in there as a unique track for that weeks deadline.
But hey, the plus side is, I just listened to your track and it's the most funky thing I've heard on Weeklybeats this week and i think it sounds great 
- and your feedback says so too
Didn't read GMT and in CST I'm meeting the deadline and worked really hard on this track...can I have a download link?
Week 1's a curveball.
Hope your in the full swing of things now

Hi All,
I'm new here and excited to participate. I finally finished my first song and wanted to upload it to the site. I'm not sure why, but when I click upload I don't see any way to add my first song. I see a blue check on week one and a pink plus on week two. I'm fine if I missed week one, though I'd like to be able to go back and add songs that I missed. Right now, I'd be happy to post this song to either week, so I can move forward to the next. Please let me know what I'm missing. Thanks!
Ken

Hello License.

only 5 people uploaded to week one and it was in 2019? does that week even count?
I did notice that there were some early uploads, There are 10 tracks uploaded just before the new year (like, December 30th-31st )
I've made a note/backup of the tracks in case there's any glitches.. (but it looks like the filter puts them under 2020 so It looks/seems fine)
Week 2 will be a bit smoother, Week 1 is usually a bit rough and people might have had a head-start or a late-start.
I wouldn't worry about it
............tick tick tick tick............
Hola, can I please change my username to 'bobblehead'? Also my first new name since 2014
haha, 'bobblehead'
Awesome
You are now known as bobblehead!
So when is the deadline for sure? I was planning on week 1 being this Weekend but now I see I’m already behind the eight ball. I’ll have to redo my composition calendar for the year and reschedule studio time. It’s all electronic & it’s my studio so it’s not a BDD (Big Damn Deal) but it’s tedious.
Upload before the Deadline - Which will tick over, Monday 00:00 GMT (like 2days 21hours from when I posted this) (... check ur GMT yo)
Week 1 might be a bit of a rough start for a few people (some mis-counting the date or something),
So If you miss the deadline by a few hours or something like that, post in the forum, a mod can assist with a late upload if you state your case - but try not to be late 'all the time' and remember it's a challenge to your self, not a competition or anything, and not the end of the world..
But if something falls over, you miss a deadline (slightly), or upload fails, or anything like that
Mods are here to help and take your call
