Re:50/90 in 3 days time - 2008/06/30 16:31 That would be a challenge! One has to wonder how good the music would be at the end. That averages out to 17 songs a month. You'd have to crank out a song every 2 days.

My marriage would never survive!!!

Re:50/90 in 3 days time - 2008/06/30 16:43 I might have to give it a try. I doubt that I will even come close to 50 songs, but if I can get 5-10 new songs and another 10 or so lyrics, then I would consider it a major success.

Of course, you could always take a different track. Discover a new riff -- write a short instrumental around it and call it a song. Find an interesting melodic idea -- OK that's a song, too.

let's say you discover 10 new riffs, 10 interesting melodies and then write 10 complete songs and have 20 or song "lyric fragments" created. Those riffs, melodies and song fragments might turn into great songs down the road. (And then you could record them for the RPM 2009!).

LOL. Of course you dont have to do 50 songs, Im certainly not going to. I aim to go at a fairly relaxing pace and at least come up with some decent material. Its just nice to have a community of musicians to talk to and bounce ideas off of, while doing it.
