Day 59 had some good progress. One song got both rhythm and lead guitars and three others got lead guitars. Later on, all four of those songs were mixed and uploaded to alonetone.com and are officially finished.
With that, August comes to an end. Today is day 60 and the first of September and while we ignore the sad fact that September brings with it the end of summer which is utterly fucking depressing it gives us a chance to reflect on the progress made in August.
In August I started 14 new songs and I finished them all. Simple. That means that my mini challenge to write and record an album entirely within the month of August (by RPM Challenge rules, 10 songs or 35 minutes) is also a success.
To recap the 50/90 project as a whole (which I think I already did in a post last night), The Started and Finished in July bucket over on my Trello board has 20 songs in it. The Started and Finished in August bucket has 14 songs in it. The Started in One Month and Finished in Another bucket has five songs in it. The Lyrics and Melody Written and Ready for Vocal Tracking bucket has three songs in it, all started in July. All other buckets are empty.
Time to start coming up with new song ideas. Bring on September.
