Step two - do what you want on it, planet guy
Step three - choose who to pass it to first.
(I do have a Dropbox account that could be used)
The song length would pretty much be the beat length.
well, here's what i'm gonna try to do today. i'm gonna try and lay down a few simple "pieces" with canned drums on the right channel and say a bass line, or rhythm gtr, or simple mando part on the left. i'll post it on soundclick or soundcloud, make it avail as a download and then anyone interested can mess w it adding a part w the option of mixing in the (canned) drums or adding their part ALSO to the left channel w mine so that eventually (or at any point) real drums can be added.
seems like that could work, no? end result would be a mono mix but so what.
i don't mind offering up a "canvas" or two but it sure would great if others can do the same.
grant...i think you could probably offer up some great canvases for folks to work with if you don't feel comfortable adding instrumental stuff later on in the process. if not any instrumental contribution....no doubt you could offer some fine lyrics and maybe even sing them.
i'm hoping that people won't get too caught up in or intimidated w "skill level" considerations and that hinders their participation. this isn't supposed to be anything competetive and we're all (mosty) friends here....right glenn?
