Is there a possibility the judges could chime in sooner this round? Not to be a complainer... but it's easier to bring the A game when it's on!

Sure. Having been in last year's finals, I understand how it feels ;)
I've been a bit lazy lately; but I'll try my best this week.

This is an easy 15-minute song cycle. Someone needs to bring it.

This feels like a Kraken Lives origin story shadow song.

A struggle I am having:
Staying on the JONATHAN side of pronunciation, steering away from TELETHON.

Bring your A game? I thought it was bring A game... like a song about Candyland...

A GAME Of Thrones is waiting for me if I can ever finish mixing.
Ahh mixing, the bane of my existence.

Mixing? We're doing that now? Way to spring an attack on me at the last minute!

Just kidding.
Ok I'm in. Holy. Relief and fatigue and sadness and all kinds of things. Can't believe I did the whole Nur Ein.
This has been so much fun and everyone was completely awesome.
Thanks so much everybody.
Good luck Mike!
NUR EIN

Thanks, you too! I feel the same way and I may take off work sometime this week to remember what real life is like.

I'm right behind you - ran into a bunch of problems last minute with my guitar tone and mixing unexpected stylistic choices! It's definitely a difficult spin on what I normally do.

Yeesh! it's hard to master when rendering my project takes 2 minutes! I may send Niv a back-up while I widdle away!

I'm in!!! That was close! I should uh learn to mix and master with rendered tracks so my project doesn't take forever to render.

(or maybe the problem is I unwittingly wrote a book of lyrics and quadrupled all the vocals)

Edit: too bad i can't post a new master :\

Hey thanks, Mike. Yours too!
I think I have music fatigue now. Gotta go to bed. Can't even hear what anything is anymore.
