True. Maybe another thing like the 10 second song. Or maybe only have 1 day to make a song. Something to really push our creative ness.
Tbh the sample pack comps aren’t a “challenge” for me anymore cuz it’s basically the only way I’ve been making songs now. Neither is the 100bpm because, again, Ive been making most of my songs around there recently.
(I don’t mean to sound like I’m good at it, just that I’m comfortable with the set up)
We need something that actually breaks how we think about making a song.

Like if we did a psytrance tune battle I’m sure no one would have a leg up

YES! Let’s pick the shittiest most b8 genre and go from there.
Hardstep Challenge
Yoifilth Hoedown
Trancenanigans
Polka Hop Extravaganza
etc etc
I mean, if it’s about challenging personal boundaries…
I’d love to do a happy harcore one. That would be hilarious

Also think the Tuna thread is where the real dons hang. Want to cross-pollinate between this and that a little more.
I’m honestly shamed when I think about how hard you regulars over there actually try to keep yourself on point through rigorous discipline.
The tuna guys are all fantastic and V talented
I can never keep up tbh I’m a slacker

Yeah I wish I had the time to stick around there but I’m already doing too much. And I felt bad I never had the time to listen to everyone’s tunes

All respect to the Tuna massive.

Let’s wrap up here for now (still only one submission? If so… )
Let’s pick up @
@ronzlo_ Pointed out that the old sample pack competitions have become a vanishing part of forum culture. This is a travesty and we cannot permit that it should continue. Please, lets post ideas for themes, rules, and competitions so that we can resume the classical tradition of interactive music production.
