If you're a WSA Brain Trust fan, you'll also like the Cavedwellers song because there is......

"Speaking in Polish!!!"

I am a fan of that song. And it is almost certainly because of the Polish bit (and not the fact that I'm a massive narcissist)

Lol. That looks like a barrel of laughs! Looking forward to this one

Balance Lost Guests: The Serviettes singing in Welsh, Yuki singing in Japanese The song is about 2 people living on the same street who feel like outsiders but find acceptance through each other. The English translation is in brackets beneath the non-English parts, and the Japanese also has the rom...

(Crown Shy) - You see, this is why we shouldn't have immunity at all, as it means a song as good as this kind of falls by the wayside. I love the Laurie Anderson-esque Spoken Word verses and the chorus is fantastic. Best song (not) in the fight and would have voted accordingly if I could. j$ Or per...

Good to know. Thanks Niv

Also cheers for the feedback on the songs. I agree with you about my verses dragging a bit. Might need to go back and edit it.

I'll be listening in Semiprecious/DMA/Pareidolia order as was always intended. What?! That order was never specified was it? As the bookends on my song pretty clearly imply my song order was Pareidolia/DMA/Semiprecious, which meets the wording of the challenge the way I read it. I'll be pretty bumm...

There's a discord?!
Where can I get the link for this?

Edit: thanks vomit

Aah the obligatory "Nur Ein + Ein" round. Clearly my protest song from last year fell on deaf ears

Balance Lost Guess what the song is called My first song was about my balls. My second song was about my bumhole. This song is about my perineum. Looks like I've nailed this liner notes business. Neon reflections in your eyes The windshield shows a vacant sky That rains down nothing on the lives Of...

Personally I'd prefer to stick to the original schedule. The title and challenge were released on time so we weren't held back starting our songs. Also a delay would mess up my recording routine and my song is already finished so an extension wouldn't benefit me at all. Fine with whatever. Just my 2...

Balance Lost - Field recording or sample? If you record a t.v. show or a video is it a field recording? Ah, but field recording a la Alan Lomax? Aye, that's a field recording. But did you make it? Nowhere in the challenge did it say you had to make your own. Still.... I like the rhythmic elements, ...

Here are some brief opinions. I listed these vaguely in the order I would've ranked them if I were a judge (shadows not included in ranking). Apologies if anything I say below is too mean. Balance Lost : The greatest thing I've ever heard. Cancel the whole tournament now and just give them the award...

I must admit that this challenge initially confused me rather more than other challenges as it's slightly ambiguous how you could define a bridge track. However, I will attempt in good faith to make as creative an approach to this one as I can. What's the cleverest way I can interpret this...

Balance Lost Radiator grilles and pelican crossings Are tricking my brain to feel There's somebody watching Now we're seeing different things Cos we're using different eyes Could you be tripping? Or am I? Trying to read the signs Trying to read the air I can see there's nothing there Looking in my ...

About halfway through recording my vocals I realised that the song was in the wrong key for my voice. I did attempt to rerecord the whole thing but ran out of time, so you get the original.

I used a recording of the announcer from my local train station and based my track on that.

I was half expecting a repeat of last year's round 0 massacre

Now The Lowest Bitter gets to have 2 songs with this title

Cool challenge

Balance Lost This house is quiet today An unexpected consequence Of what I didn't say soon enough Things will go back to how they've always been My routine unsettled Only temporarily Our songs are only semiprecious To you, to me And nobody else is interested In our methods These stones are only sem...

Great artwork

I sent some videos to the dropbox. I messed it up a bit and might have sent the same video twice but hopefully from the file names it's fairly obvious which order they go in.

Balance Lost The people in the street Carry umbrellas any time of year The dust sticks to my skin The water is murky but I'm going in I got nothing to be late for today I'll ignore the pressure I made They're coming for you And staying for me We'll get high, high, higher than they'll ever be A pack...

I have no idea what genre my work in progress falls under but you can dance to it so that's good.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it'll be a dark, heavy genre
