MAGFest is over and everybody is worn out, sad, and getting sick. This month's DoD theme is Brevity Month.

You can pick any source but your cover has to be under 60 seconds. So make it quick guys.

The banner might appear later.

Songs are due: JANUARY 26th, 10PM ET

If you don't know what DoD is, well where have you been!? http://dwellingofduels.net/

My personal advice is to chop out the 1 minute of awesomeness from your full remix and submit that to DoD, then submit the entire song to OCR. Who writes 1 minute worth of song, really? Nothin' says you can't write a full song then just feature the best part in this DoD month. Good luck, friends!

I already made a whole song with verses and choruses and bridges and solos and it fit under one minute. So it's definitely possible.

I don't like the idea of cutting parts of longer songs because the goal here is to see if you are able to write something coherent that's under a minute long. But well, if you're not creative enough to do it that way, sure, cut a part of a longer song and submit it :P
