Upcoming April Theme Comp : Weird & Bizarre

April Bi-Monthly Upcoming Theme Is : Weird & Bizarre!

Send up to two tracks to : toretorden

Deadline : 15th of April

So, the upcoming theme as voted forth by you guys is weird. I've taken the freedom to add bizarre as well. So, what is Weird & Bizarre? Here's what Merriam Webster has to say :

: strikingly out of the ordinary: as a : odd, extravagant, or eccentric in style or mode b : involving sensational contrasts or incongruities

So, something strange, extravagant, out of the ordinairy, eccentric, fantastic, supernatural, odd, magical, disconcertingly different or perhaps eerie. Because many things can be weird or bizarre, this theme is less fixed than most previous ones.

I don't think I'll add the typical examples to inspire (though go ahead if you want). This one is all up to you :) Remember you can submit two tracks and let's make it a good one!

i know exactly what i'm submitting

For the first time, I've no idea what to submit :p: Not that there's a lack of options in my library though, but it's gonna require some thought to find the perfect couple of tracks.

A lot of the weirder music I have is not really that appealing.

I'll send a couple once I've actually listened to the last one! Should really get round to that sometime soon.

I don't think I'll be submitting any track, but I'll definitely download this comp.

know what i'm submitting

I'm all over this comp like a mofo

i know whay i'm submitting still need to upload

(i forgot why i quoted you)

Hopefully mine aren't TOO weird. I've mentioned both bands in my journal so I guess mine won't be too hard to pick out.

It seems people tire of the guessing games anyways ;) Thinking it might be more interesting to drop it this time and just have people present their songs instead, like write about why they chose the song and what it is about it they think makes it weird.

Any other opinions on this? I'd love to hear'em!

Yeah I really like that idea! I'm all for that

Yeah, I don't know people's tastes well enough to really have any sort of chance to get the guessing right. Your idea is good.

I'll definitely be submitting. Just have to figure out what kind of weird to send.
