Thoughts for Season Three: Summer is busy, people on vacation, tour, moving, nose picking, etc. How does everyone feel about taking an intermission and starting Season Three on August 1st?

 

[FuzzyAce]

Congrats Iron and great work everyone!
I like the idea of an intermission.

 

[David Lo Pan]

We decided to put together some user banners for the people that submitted music for this season.

TGF Champion for our winner and Do Something overlord Iron, and TGF Recording Artist for everyone that submitted at least one piece of music.

Banners will remain active through the end of the next season. For Season 3, a minimum of two submissions will be required to get the banner.

Great job everyone!

I’m adding “Recording Artist” to my resume.

I’m down with an intermission, but what are we, Neural DSP developers? A month? I’ll forget how to open the DAW in a month. I vote a week or two.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

I'd be down for a summer break. Two vacations coming up and I'm covering for two other folks vacations at work. No excuses, I'd still try to pump something out even if it were recorded on a cell phone microphone and had screaming children in the background. I might just have less entries, I'm flexible.

I’m in for season #3

Don’t forget the Directors Cut thread.

Had some shitty weeks, but hope to be back for Season 3. August sounds fine! I can hardly wait to torment the dear forum community again with my infernal effusions.

I have neglected the nose and other areas recently due to this challenge, and will endeavor to be in full compliance with any directives issued by Master Blaster Iron1 who runs Challenge Town! Congrats to all participants on "gettin' er done" and special kudos to the Challenge Champ!! Break or not, looking forward to season 3!!!

Congratulations to everyone that took part in this. I love checking out everyones submissions even if they're not all my typical style of music.
I fully intend to get involved in the next season even if it's just little riff ideas or whatever.

 

[TJontheRoad]

Congrats for all the new stuff. I need to go back and listen. I've been knee deep in my album project that's just now complete. I'll be back for next season.

Shitty weeks here too... hoping august sucks less lol... Not sure if its just me but I prefer some of the challenge aspect, like when drum tracks are provided and everyone makes their own thing on the same drum tracks... always fun to hear other people takes on the same beats.. especially when the drums take you beyond your norm. Just my 2 cents

That is a cool aspect for sure, but also a giant time suck for whomever is running the show. If there was a quick, easy way to do it (and everyone else dug the idea) I'd be all for it. I just personally don't have the time (or attention span ha!) to go sifting through free drum tracks, or make new ones, then make sure everyone has access to them, etc..

Now, if someone else wants to take that on and can reliably do it for 8 straight weeks, let's go.

Yup I agree man. And to add to that, I think thats why I prefer when drums are provided lol... I literally have just enough time to grab premade drums, make up cheezy riffs, double track em, add bass then go feed my kids and do dad shit...

I listened to all the season 2 stuff. You guys are a bit twisted and awesome at the same time.
