Sorry for the delay in posting the competition this month. I haven't been paying enough attention to my mailbox lately. G-man has an excellent theme for us this month (see below). All entries to be PM-ed to me by the 25th.

Basically start your entry out and see if you can flip it's mood 180 degrees in 2 minutes or less while still carrying the main idea of the song. Try end up with something that conveys a sense of transition or change, or, evolve the whole thing as you go, keeping the central melody or theme of the song.

See if you end up somewhere completely different but with a hint of familiarity. Or stick a sub theme in on it. For example "Progress of a fire (flames to ashes)", or "Winter to Spring", or even "Life Cycle of the Mosquito", or a genre fade from Punk into Blues. Try be subtle and blend them in or do some sudden time changes, but it has to sound controlled. ?

Sounds tricky, right? ?
    Very nice G-Man!! Yes this could be a real challenge. But I like the concept and I really hope many of us can get into the studio on this one.

    I'm going from Summer into Fall.........so my mood change might be reversed to y'all's! ?

      Great! Let's hope we get lots of entries for this one. It really is wiiiiide open. I probably won't be entering as I am getting married on the 21st of this month so things are a bit hectic but I look forward to seeing what you guys come up with!
        Yeah, this is a great theme. I do hope I'll be able to get around to recording one for this and I'm really looking forward to see what people come up with here.
          No genre restriction, great! Let's see.
            This is an epic idea. Well done.

            And good luck with your transition into hell marriage

                  SHITE!

                  I just looked at the calendar date.....and the end date of the comp/challenge. IF yoU C Kate, tell her I love her!

                  And me the one jumping up and down like a Jack Russell terrier on crack about the challenges and how we sould pick abstract things to make it easier.....and I don't even enter.

                  I'm so sorry chaps and chapesses. I could go on and on about all the things in my daily life, but it has been a mess. It's like everything is hitting at once. I am sorry I did not make it. I swear........the intent is there. And I'll be honest.......in the times I have available to me to go in the studio and put something down......I'm so beat, the thought does not even enter my mind. I am more active doing shit now, than ever in my long life. Maybe next time. Sorry.
                    I have had no entries thus far so I'm going to carry this topic over to October
