Song a week community (lemmy.world)

I'm pimping another community, I hope that is okay. I created https://lemmy.world/c/songaweek which is modeled after the reddit sub songaweek.

Every Thursday a new theme is posted. We all spend the next week writing a new song. By Thursday we have our song as done as we can get it and then we post it here for everyone to hear. We then will give feedback on the song, no negative critiques please. These songs were written, recorded and mixed in 7 days. We want to encourage song writing. Your song does not need to use the provided theme, write about about whatever you want. The provided theme is just to get you started.

This weeks theme is the chord progression i-VII-VI-V. I'd love to see all of you there. https://lemmy.world/post/1884588

This is awesome, I'll subscribe!

By the way, if you like challenges like this we're currently running 50/90, a 20+ years old challenge to write 50 songs in 90 days. You can participate at https://fawm.org/ .

I’m in, at least when FAWM and 50/90 are not happening… which is now. Of course there is nothing that says I can’t make the challenge part of my 50/90.

…well, the backlog I have and the inability to catch up with non-musical stuff says that, but there are no rules against it.

This week's theme is short songs so it might be a fit for your other projects. https://lemmy.world/post/2584095
