Write Something with an Excessive Element
That could mean writing something with a crazy amount of bending or sliding, or a track with ten rhythm guitars playing simultaneously, or excessively longwinded verses, or an excessively busy chorus with too many countermelodies. You can either try to figure out how to do this tastefully, or you can have fun with it and make it sound wild!
Your personal skill level, comfort zone, and free time are all important considerations when approaching a Community Challenge - I’m not asking anyone to write a full song! I’m asking for whatever you have the time, mental bandwidth, and skill to accomplish in roughly two weeks.
If you end up writing ANYTHING, I consider that a huge success. Write SOMETHING. It could be just a simple chord progression you put together or a riff you came up with using a pentatonic scale. Use the writing prompt to guide you and watch my video if you need more ideas.
