DDC: Doubles' Dash Compo - two-person vocal compo - next round: 4/28, 9PM EST

[Level 99]

So check it out. These have been going on for a while intermittently but now they have a set schedule so there's no reason to not plan on trying one out at some point.

Doubles' Dash is a themed compo held the last Friday of every month, starting at 9 PM EST. Teams of two write, record and upload to ThaSauce a vocal song in under three hours and twenty minutes. Teammates are not to be chosen until 15 minutes prior to the start of the compo, thereby providing an X-factor. Typically, one team member handles the instrumental and production, while the other handles lyrics and vocals, but that's not a rule; division of labor can be handled in any way a team sees fit, though it is not in the spirit of the event for one team member to do everything while the other sits idle.

There have been some amazing songs to come out of DDC, so if you're working on leveling up your online collaboration skill, or your vocal or production chops, this is a great way to do so. While there may be a winner by points, everyone who participates is a winner because they make some material and improve their skill!

This is probably my favorite compo, just because of the magic of collaboration. I wish I could remember the original quote, but when you put two one-person-band entities together, inspired stuff happens. Of course, great songs also come about even if both parties are less-than-well-rounded musically. I'll be keeping an eye on this for my blog, and maybe I'll team up for a song sometime in the future.

Very belated but tonight is DDC15! There were no votes at all last time and only two entries, so come on out and make this one grand. See you tonight!

Urgh, your sense of timing is impeccable. I'm out of the house tonight, so I can't participate this time around.
