Thank you all for your helpful and encouraging comments. It is what keeps me going.
I got a "WIS" (work in stagnation) for this month's theme, which I will start to work on again today.

Hello everyone, first of all thanks to Mr. Fox for organizing the competition and choosing such an inspiring photo and theme for this month's competition. I had a lot of different ideas based on picture and theme. My experience this month: I had trouble starting writing this month. The theme of this...

Hello everybody, while thinking about this month's theme and the picture, I thought about how different we are seen by the people around us and how unable we are to see ourselves through their eyes. Due to some unforeseeable circumstances, I started very late this month and had less time than usual ...

It's me who sings two voices. (Or should I use the word 'parts'? I'm pretty sure 'Stimmen' is the correct word in German.) Then I used Elastique to raise both voices/Stimmen an octave (ie: I sang the first two parts one more time, before raising an octave, to create a more natural variation). A lot...

Re: SONGWRITING COMPETITION - SWC072 August 2023 - Voting until 01-SEP-2023 23:59 UTC+2/CEST

Hello everybody, I'm having a hard time voting this month because the songs are difficult to compare to each other. Having listened to the songs on repeat for the last days, I discovered a lot of nuances I like but have difficulties to describe. And I'm still not sure about my ranking while I type t...

Hello everybody, the picture inspired me to write something cinematic, but it ended up as a cinematic intro followed by a regular ABAB-structure. I hope somebody will like it anyway. So here is my entry for this month: https://soundcloud.com/kukobass/swc072-kukobass-cloudsoverherrenhausen The wav ve...

Hello fellow musicians and writers, it was a fun competition and the results are stunning. I think every song could be used by the developers in different parts of the game. I'm glad I did not listen to the other songs before uploading my own. Otherwise, I would have been too discouraged to take par...

Hi Mr. Fox, thank you for the time to listen to this on different setups and your feedback. :arrow_right: The devs wrote: ... Although we would kindly ask you to maybe get back and address some volume issues. Namely the lead synth, and some of the sound effects you've used. They are sticking out a b...
