How it Works
For Each Round
- Someone picks an artist – One participant picks an artist, album or similar
- You pick a song by that artist – After an artist has been chosen, each participant picks a song by the chosen artist
- Record your version of that song – Record a cover of the song you chose.
- Share and support – Share your song, compare notes, and give each other kudos and constructive criticism.
General Rules
- The artist for the next round will not be announced until everyone has completed their cover for the current round — or at the end of 2 weeks; whichever comes first
- Choosing the next artist will be done in a round-robin fashion, with new participants being put in the front of the line
- Recordings should in some way challenge the participant (take some time to craft your recording)
- Recordings should be new from the time of the announcement (not already recorded in any way beforehand)
- Everyone is encouraged to make constructive comments in line with goals of the participant
- Participants may submit revised versions of their covers
- Songs should be in reasonably compact mp3 format and under 5 minutes in length (to conserve on space)
- Participants should declare themselves for a particular round so that we will be able to determine when a round ends
- Participants are encouraged to add notes about their production so that other might be able to provide feedback and/or learn from each other
Special Rounds
- Everyone records an original song
- Everyone picks a song from someone’s favorites playlist; e.g. from a spouse or friend.
