January Music Challenge
January 3, 2011 6:21 PM
The January Music Challenge is well underway, but there is still room for entrants.
Congrats and kudos to everyone who participated in the Holiday Music Challenge. FWIW, the music posted here was all my family and I listened to during the holidays while tree trimming, opening presents and drinking spiked eggnog. Yes, even the fun and kinda crazy stuff. Hooray!
Regarding the challenge for this month, if you're interested and have yet to sign up you can MeMail me in the next couple of days to be matched up for the January Collaboration Challenge.
As this challenge has progressed, I've ended up with odd numbers of people, so after the next day or two, whatever "remainders" we have will be invited to participate together as the new super-group, The Remainders. I hope nobody minds that, but at this point dividing into twos is probably too little too late. So, if you're one of us "remainders", lets just have some fun with it!
This is also a good thread to use if you have any questions about recording, file sharing or anything else to help you sail smoothly.

Is there a theme we're supposed to follow, or is collaboration it?

My understanding was that it had to have been a number 2 hit on the Croatian charts between the years 1962 and 1974. That's right, isn't it, sns?

You know, FAM, it occurs to me that you and Cortex are either going to create a song powerful enough to create a vortex that destroys the sun, or your dual awesomeness will prove to be in direct opposition, thus canceling each other out and resulting in a fetid mass of crap.
No pressure.

Yep, that's right flapjax there are some great Croat songs from that little era!
That didn't even occur to me uncleozzy. The only member I can remember though, is Stephen King.

Fetid vortex of sun-destroying crap is also a possibility, for what it's worth.

Hey, uh, so, I was totally going to update the music challenge page for this month sooner* but I couldn't because pb hadn't fixed a bug**. But now I have, and suggested the tag "januarycollaboration" for this month since I didn't notice a canonical suggestion on a quick skim. But I might have just skimmed too quick, so if I need to change that let me know.
* Five minutes ago instead of two minutes ago.
** It took him like three minutes to get back to me, which, I mean, I haven't got all month man.

So January 24th rolls around and none yet submitted for the collaboration challenge? I have a feeling there's going to be a whole lot of awesome coming out in the next week, people must be putting some serious effort into this. I'm looking forward to the results.
