Razma Music Challenge 004 - Saga

Make a song which contains the history of its own creation. There are two main approaches I've envisioned: ACCURATE and NATURAL.

For the most ACCURATE sound, record this entire process externally (e.g., by filming it, or by having Audacity record the Stereo Mix and your mic input) so that EVERYTHING (including your spoken comments, sounds in the room, software crashes, distractions, etc.) become part of the finished piece. This will tell the most complete history.

For the most NATURAL sound, treat the composition as a loop and allow it to play on loop while making it. We'll hear the experience of making this song as if each individual iteration of the song were itself part of a greater arrangement. This will be the most composed.

ADVICE: Work on areas the playhead has already passed by this round, or else just work quickly! Choose the song's tempo and length from the beginning and stick with them. Then each iteration can be sampled and treated as a seamless loop later on.

When you get a dumb idea in your head, you write it down and fuckin' RUN with it.
