Thanks to the Wishing Well by Karlos the Jackal

Karlos the Jackal — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 18:41:38 -0800

If not for MeFi Challenge deadlines, I might never actually finish a song. This one has only two chords (D and G). Instruments used, in order of appearance: Autoharp, marimba, marxophone, triangle, glockenspiel, and accordion.

Morning by azarbayejani

For the April two chords challenge: As usual, a repetitive song. This time written in a slightly confusing time signature.

Languid and lingual.

Gone Gone Gone by flapjax at midnite

For the April "two chords" Challenge. The two 3-note chords even share a note in common, so we're talking a total of five notes serving as harmonic accompaniment for this song. Played on the strumstick. There's a hoop drum, too, of indeterminate pitch. I posted a lo-fi, live version of this song to YouTube as well, direct from my 6-mat tatami room at home. You can see it here.

Why donchu go by xorry

On man.. the first line and the rhythm were written while walking to class three or four years ago in a wisdom tooth Vicodin sunshine. A couple of days before April this year I woke up early some Sunday morning and just started playing the same two 'chords' over and over again (A7#9sus4 (just bar the 5th) and Amaj .. although it probably was closer to Amin/E to Amaj/E). Combine that with a corrupted version of the 'Why don't you move back to Massachusetts!' line from Do the Right Thing and you've got something sounding like early tired Sunday mornings.

Ataraxia by semblance

semblance — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 15:27:19 -0800

'Ataraxia' is Greek for 'tranquility', which is what I was trying to convey with this piece.

Frog versus Toad (Are Part Of A Zombie Bot Army From The Future) by The World Famous

The World Famous — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 11:29:27 -0800

Two chords: Em and G. But don't worry. You're not part of the Zombie Bot Army. Because Frog and Toad are. And they're staying up all night drinking and having snacks at a bar with PB.

enigmatics III by NemesisVex

NemesisVex — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 18:32:22 -0800

Yes, I already contributed something to the two-chord challenge, but that doesn't mean it's the only song I've done with only two chords. This track uses Fm and G.

In the Morning We Awoke by orville sash

A song recorded with Synthesizer and guitar. My submission for the two chords competition

Soon by uncleozzy

A little two-chord reverie that shuffles around for a bit and then disappears.

Everything (is on fire) by The Great Big Mulp

The Great Big Mulp — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 16:01:36 -0800

This is an old song, but it only uses two chords (well, okay, so there's a third, brief chord, but still), and it's taken me four years to get around to the massive amount of hiss reduction the song required to make it postable. Because I'm lazy.

All Day Long by snsranch

snsranch — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 18:51:11 -0800

Very short and perhaps sweet. I've been working on this kind of music for a while and this is a good example of where I'm at with it right now. Two Chord Challenge!!! ENJOY!

Letter & line by freya_lamb

For the two chord challenge, though a bit of a cheat because it's more like two notes...

Rescuer (cleaner mix) by NemesisVex

NemesisVex — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 11:44:35 -0800

Finally -- a MeFiMusic Challenge I can do! Or rather have done. I actually posted this song before, but I've since gone back and cleaned up the EQ and gated some of the noise from the vocal. The two chords used are D and E.

Kimo by micayetoca

Am7 + Gm7. My submission to the two chord challenge.

You're Not Alone by ORthey

ORthey — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 23:35:22 -0800

My contribution to the two-chord challenge. A sleepy little song with fingerpickin' guitar, piano, and some three part "harmony." I experiment a little more with my voice on this one.

This Much by Corduroy

Corduroy — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 14:47:03 -0800

A two chord challenge song that EXPLODES!
