I only joined halfway through this year but with a different focus than previously. WB definitely worked as a motivator to get me writing more music, although I feel like the community aspect was different this year, at least for me. I'm probably going to be back in 26 because that's my guitar's 100th birth year and I might want to do a year worth of guitar tracks.
Congratulations to everyone and thanks for submitting songs and feedback. This is a great way to use the internet!!!
i think most people would be delighted :-)
Hello, can I please change my name back to colorful grey? thanks :-)
104 club, here I come.
yup! just submitted my final piece. ahhh...
I wouldn't normally think to try to promote someone's track over anyone else's, but in my opinion, this is definitely warranted.

Looks like he's been working on it since 2014. Aside from the obvious technical achievements, there is something to be said about the arrangement and the sheer passion and emotion that comes from the piece. I recommend that you all give this a listen.
I'm really proud to be part of this community and everyone inspires me to be better. It doesn't matter how simple or grand your work is; I just care that we all keep going!
thanks for the tip -- just listened to it, very nice

so far this year i like this:
oooh thank you for posting this!
Alright I have another copyright question... I used a melody from the 1950s I think. I then re-harmonized it, which is my original work and certainly makes it sound quite a bit different. The melody has been published widely in German folk song books, so much so that it's considered a folk song.
... what do you think, OK to submit here?
Lute!
In 2014 there was a flute player...

Yes.
Thanks!

i've been trying to use notation more (or really, at all). writing tab or score down instead of recording it. i used to do that with chord progressions, just writing down chord names, but i want to move towards a mix of lute tablature and staff notation.

just sayin...
The core is essentially trying to push my instrument (double bass) into as many different styles, genres, as I can but it does lend itself to the 'classical' tradition.
^this. I really admired your work in 2012 and will try to move in that direction, as well. Glad you're here!
