Well, it’s been a long hard road since last Friday, when I found out the exact nature of the challenge for MoSF#2 Round 2 (start a dance craze based on a famous inventor). I don’t think I’ve even put in this much time on a single recording before.

The details of Masters of Song Fu #2 Round 2 were published on Friday, the morning after I hit the substantial completion mark on the recording phase of October’s Song of the Month Club offering, “Coney Island Sideshow Freak Girl.” Long story short, sleep deprivation is starting to get the best of me.

There’s some words I thought I’d never say. Oh well, it would appear that I don’t seem to have any real control over the ideas that pop into my head that eventually grow into songs.

Last night, I spent a lot of time looking at the voting results for Masters of Song Fu #2 Round 1; way more time than could ever be rationally justified as healthy, actually.

So, last night I was up for a good long time starting to track stuff for my as yet not formally titled song about the moon for the Masters of Song Fu Challenge. Firstly, not having a title makes saving files a little tricky. Secondly, my gear sucks large. Third, my voice sucks larger.

I asked for it, I got it; I’m officially competing in the Masters of Song Fu Songwriting Challenge hosted by Quick Stop Entertainment.

Well, for those of you who can’t actually hear what I’m doing in the basement (which I hope is most of you), it looks like I’m just talking about making music and not actually doing anything about it. But in truth, I’ve put in a string of late nights in the studio to prove otherwise.

I went to check out who won the Song Fu Challenge last week (surprise, surprise, it was Jonathan Coulton) just to find out the good folks at Quick Stop Entertainment were planning to start another songwriting challenge starting this week!
