The Challenge February 2012

Renesongs

Write a 2min or less piece of music for a modern Kung Fu Spaghetti Western type movie. It's almost high noon in desert ghost town and there is an imminent duel between two samurai warriors facing off against each other. One is fighting for the forces of pure unadulterated evil, the other......... er.......honor perhaps? Oh....the girl's virtue! That's it!

Please mark your entries A, I or B . Deadline is midnight Fri 24th Feb

Very nice topic. It's about time I put my pushed writing/playing, will give this one a think!

majestikc

I think I'm going to give this one a go, sounds "groovey"

Well, credit where credit is due..... I was going to suggest a Delta Blues to make it somewhat easier for everyone ( not that real and authentic Delta blues is easy really...... ) but Tamla's idea was a good one so I went with it as I am a big fan of this type of stuff. What is great about this style is anyone can whip something up that fits......especially the surf music dudes who have had categories like metal and such come their way for a while. This should level the playing field a bit.

Good luck all! See you at the end. Kick that reverb tank baby!

And oh............

I won't be entering this one, unfortunately. I need to try and compose something for my wedding...

Good luck guys. ?

Nitebob

Warren, don't do it...she gonna make you sell them guit's ? I also will not be accepting this mission. Busy composing for a 24hr country marathon early in March.... maybe next time

I'm in! I've already got an idea but I'd need to flesh it out some more. I reckon this could be fun.

Is there any chance the deadline can be extended by a day or two? Being as this is a short month. If not, no biggie. Just askin'.

I'm trying to play catch up so the next Challenge can start on the 1st of March but if you can get members to lobby for more time on this one on condition that they commit to submitting an entry I can be easily persuaded to extend the deadline.

Highway-Chile

Don't sweat it then Rene, I don't want to interfere with your plans. Unless others feel the need? How many are going for it this time......only Tam so far?

FruitarGeek

I'd like to. Have a chord progression and melody in mind. But finding the time to do it is the problem.
