So, I did not know what to post this week in the ongoing FAWM (February Album Writing Month) so you can take your pick. I had the most fun doing a Pink Floyd type song reminiscent of The Wall, called Hey Kids. There are two solo guitars. Mike Durham is Left Channel and I am right channel. The lyrics to all songs are on soundcloud. The other offering is a slow hip hop thing, as minimalistic as I have ever been, I think, and a super fast write and mix. The channel link is a collection of the growing list. Cheers! https://soundcloud.com/davidsnyderfawm2022/hey-kidshttps://soundcloud.com/davidsnyderfawm2022/what-ifhttps://soundcloud.com/davidsnyderfawm2022Hey Kids Stuff: David Snyder, various stuff and crazy guitar RealTracks in style: 1759:Bass, Electric, Pop16ths Ev 085 RealTracks in style: 3347:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm HazyFunky Ev16 090 RealTracks in style: 3350:Guitar, Electric, Soloist HazyFunkyWah Ev16 090 RealDrums [in style:RockBritDrivingEv16^1-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride *******************

Good luck on your rapid songwriting journey.
I like these songs and in particular I like "What if".
regards
Gary.

I think you edged into "The Wall" territory.
Cool!

I commented on Kids in the other thread.
What if...?
Def minimalist but it's not at any cost...the melody and narrative carry the day.
Even if it were a full "band" production by a name outfit I still doubt there'd be much more in it that you've used....nothing to get in the way.
Cheers

Hello David
That's incredible. So many songs in such a short time
You are a song wizard ;-)
If I understood correctly, this is a contest or ?
What is there to win ?
Do the other participants also use BiaB ?
Are there any requirements for the songs ?
Good luck David ;-)
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Listened to both.... Liked What If better. Both are good and have such a great message.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Both are good, but different.
We think "Hey kids" has the best chances.

LOVE YOU LIKE A ROBOT
COOOOOL.
Some funny/clever lyrics.
GREAT job of showing BIAB doing some MODERN stuff!!!
At some point you might post some of these by themselves (in the Showcase).
When you've got nothing else going on (or posted) - although I'm not sure THAT will EVER happen...
I think there are some people missing these - and the "new" styles that you are doing are not typically represented here.
Good mix.
Keep it up!!!

David.
Cool tracks.
Robot Love tune was of course my favorite. What If was also neat, and I think it worth coming back to it after the pressure write thing is over. Thank you for sharing.
Mish.

My favorite is Love You Like A Robot, very cool "robotic" vocal delivery and very enjoyable chorus melody. Nice simple modern arrangement.
