Re: Nur Ein XV Round Zero "This is Fine"
Here are Max Bombast's liner notes, in video form: I love this!! so much!! I would totally subscribe to your youtube channel where you give tutorials about how you use reaper. Diggin that web remote thing, I'll have to check that out. A video of my song production last week(end) would include me ge...

Re: Nur Ein XV Round Zero "This is Fine"
that doesn't technically meet the challenge IMO. Good to know (Thanks for the kind words in the review, as well). I think the title and the meme that goes with it primes the mind to think of a contradiction in context vs an internal contradiction in the given lyrics. e.g. the Dog says "This is...

Re: Nur Ein XV Round Zero "This is Fine"
I'm sure some people appreciate and look forward to reviews, and I'm not trying to advocate for them going away or anything. Just making a request for judges to not review our song(s), a request that they can honor if they like, or not honor if they don't care to. Reviews from judges are really imp...

Re: Nur Ein XV Round Zero "This is Fine"
As mentioned in the lyrics thread, this song is about my nephew, Jonathan, who had Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) and passed away when he was 7 months old. The contradiction comes from singing about how everything will be fine when it won't. The music lends itself to the soft sweetness of a lullaby t...

Re: NUR EIN XV - This Is Fine
This song is about my nephew, Jonathan, who had spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and passed away when he was 7 months old. The lyrical contradiction is singing a lullaby to a child about what he's going to be when he grows up (when he won't) and how everything will be fine (when it isn't). This is Fine...

Re: Nur Ein XV
My round 0 will definitely be better than last year's, but also there's always the inclination to take on the challenge of making it... worse. I like that I met a few of you at Song fight live last year so I have more inspiration of who's listening vs just shit-posting inside jokes to Mike. After a ...

Re: Song Fight! Live 2019: Curds & Chords (Madison WI US 8/2-8/3)
ayyy this thread is more fun to read now that I know most people posting here. I had a lot of fun this weekend even though I stayed up way past my bedtime two nights in a row. Great job planning and performing everyone, thank you all so much! I think we could be talked into going to another SFL

Re: Nur Ein XIV, Final Round: Survival
Thank you Max for giving me a full OD of Bombast to go out on. I will try my best to listen to the other entries and cast my vote.
Side note: how do we cast our votes?

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Four "No Memory"
Top Tier If your song is in this list it was interesting enough to me that I listened to it several times all the way through. Grumpy Mike - Love the message. Is this a sequel to my positivity song? The mix is just really good (can tell even more so as I flip through songs in the list). Bass and ch...

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Five "Where The Streets Have No Name"
I don’t know much about U2, but this makes me want to shoot the moon . My first lyrics will be “I found myself staring at the sun. Was I the only one? The lawyer did my case pro-Bono. I had been on the edge of a life sentence, oh no.” I like it. If song contains nothing but U2 references you get a ...

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Two "Pump The Brakes"
Angry has 2 syllables Oh this was very intentional. The opening/chorus was meant to be something that got stuck in your head and the 3 syllable an-guh-ry was a big part of that. This is because it got stuck in my head before I ever recorded it, and the best thing to do with an ear wig is plague it ...

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Two "Pump The Brakes"
I quit. I quit at everything. On the one hand, I'm bored at work, so I want to pour more fuel on this fire. Same. After extensive analysis, I can confirm that this song is 17/4, expressed as a compound 9+8/4. While there is extensive use of eighth notes, the main beat is with the quarter. :D To cla...

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Two "Pump The Brakes"
Lucky Spoon The anti diss track? I can maybe see how this technically meets the challenge, but you’re stretching it a little too much for my liking. Just based off the music, lyrics and performance I’d have to rank this pretty high. But I’m also factoring in the challenge, and you’re getting dinged...

For me Agony Sauce has gotta be my favorite. Really captured what I expected (or at least hoped someone would do) in a "Diss Track" challenge in a songfight competition.

A couple shout outs before I clear my playlist. Sorry, didn't have enough time to listen thoroughly and review everyone. Props to the judges who put in the work to do this every week. Rain Watt - guitars a bit grating at first, but the chorus/hook sucked me in big, loved it. Then I listened to the l...
