Mix Challenge 056:
Genre: (Acoustic) Rock
Deadline: 21st July 11:59pm GMT+2/CEST
The main twist here, is that the recording is not perfect. The band that
went into the studio was not used to playing to a click, and things
drift a little. It does have a certain charm though is it's handled as
"one piece of music" rather than trying to fix every single audio track.
The song is about dealing with substance abuse.

Songwriting Challenge: 023:
Genre: (Mainstream) Progressive House
Theme: "Sun-filled Fiesta" (Summer Festival)
Deadline: 24th July 11:59pm GMT+2/CEST
Premise: Create a (Mainstream) Progressive House production that would
fit right into the Summer Festival season. EDM is an often requested
"genre". Although it's a general term - so I decided on settling on
"Progressive House" as definite sub-genre. I hope to see some well
created 4-to-the-floor productions with some interesting chord/melody
progressions, maybe even with an interesting vocal arrangement on top.
Prizes: IK Multimedia Modo Bass, Tone2 Saurus2, KV331 Synthmaster 1+2 Bundle, JRR Sounds (soundset of choice), Luftrum Lunaris, Rekkerd Sounds (1 sound set), Ghostwave Audio (2 soundsets), Hollow Sun Music Laboratory Machines the Suite 1, Hornet (1 plug-in)
