60 Minute Song Creation Contest #44: Summer

Scatterbrain · 03-30-2013, 01:50 AM

Hello! Here we are with the
44th 60 Minute Song Creation Contest!

This week's theme is:

Summer
Deadline for all entries - Saturday 6th April 2013 10PM GMT

THE USUAL RULES:

Song must be started from scratch, written and recorded IN 60 MINUTES. Even if you start again, whatever time you'd already used is gone.
In case of accidents/errors make sure all your software, plugins, etc. are working before you start!
Must be an entirely original track written within the 60 minutes, you can't sample other songs. Pre-made drumloops are now ALLOWED if people aren't so savvy with sequencing stuff.
As usual, PM me your entry. Please do not post in the thread.
Going to revive an old rule here that we used in an earlier contest just to keep the entries coming. Anyone who's previously entered and doesn't compete this week will be put to death.

PLEASE UPLOAD TO YOUTUBE, LIAM'S UPLOADER OR SOMETHING THAT I CAN DIRECTLY LINK TO WHEN POSTING ENTRIES!

Scatterbrain · 03-30-2013, 12:43 PM

Trooper · 04-07-2013, 04:31 PM

Slime · 04-07-2013, 06:25 PM

Compcat · 04-08-2013, 07:36 AM

as I said to Scatterbrain, it's shitty enough that I don't think it will give me an unfair advantage. i didn't make it for this, but by my memory it took about an hour.
