Announcing... RiffMasters!

[Ku²]

Feeing sad this is done. Seems I needed extra motivation to make music.

It was FUN while it lasted. It flew by, too.

I agree, if I forgot to say, thank you for putting the whole thing together and running it while balancing life.
It was a great contest, I miss it as well.

@Ku² This is reminiscent of Beatlesesque innovation in sound design to me. and meaningful too.

BRAVO.

How you fellas doin'? The ending seemed rather anticlimactic. It doesn't even feel like it ended, lol

It was a toss-up between "What's On Your Mind?" and this one. I was just messing around with the slide and then a few tunes were born of it, but the time limit didn't afford me to finish them.

Elementally Yours

This woman comes into my life.
She is perfect from head to toe,
Inside and out.
Unfortunately somebody's wife.
That's how the story goes,
On and on, we all know now.

Yearning and burning,
The earth keeps on turning,
And Falling and flowing,
The waters keep rolling,
The waves keep on curling,
The winds keeps on swirling,
Blowing and flowing and
Burning and turning and
Blowing and flowing and
Burning and turning.
(Air, Water, Fire, Earth)

Does she know what she does to me?
Is it a spell she cast or is it I'm just a fool?
A great love that never can be.....
The faiths can be SO cruel, we must live
by their rules and their rules alone

Yearning and burning,
The earth keeps on turning,
And Falling and flowing,
The waters keep rolling,
The waves keep on curling,
The winds keeps on swirling,
Blowing and flowing and
Burning and turning and
Blowing and flowing and
Burning and turning.
(Air, Water, Fire, Earth)

@TVvoodoo
I thank you for putting us all together, and being able to keep tabs on everything that goes into planning and preparing for such a magnificent game for all of us to participate in.
Thank You

Very kind all you riffbastards and riff-interested! I think I'm just one of those guys who needs projects or I get too much in my own head.

Speaking of being too much in his own head.
Barbarian Bob grows restless, Barbarian Bob needs an outlet to refer to himself in the 3rd person.

Barbarian Bob is a beacon.
A shining light on a distant mountain. He inspires us all to get in touch with, and celebrate our suppressed metal feelings.

All Hail BB!

OMG!!! I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time!!

The second one was hilarious with the Irish folk vibe.

 

[TVvoodoo]

The bass solo to the outtro at the end is really cool, wish it hadn't cut off like that.
Barbarian Bob is an icon, far more than a mere living legend, he is a
model for us all to weigh and measure our true inner-metal self to.

 

[LiveeviL2000]

And now you armed him with a head swelling theme song!!
You mad man!!! Do you know what you’ve done!!!!

Congrats to all who stuck it out through all or most of the events, and thanks to Brad @TVvoodoo for putting it together.
It did help push me to learn a bit about recording / using Reaper, and to work more towards learning / playing all the way through cover songs (even if only the rhythm parts).

For me, it was fun until it wasn't: it was suggested I didn't even play on one of my submissions / that I had cheated.
The other guy was miffed the votes I got may have been based more on my being a long time member here vs. song quality or ability. He was probably partly right, but still it wasn't right to attack my character. Sorry if it sounds petty to mention.
At that point, I bailed.

I can't compete with the many far better players than myself here and I'm fine with that.

Anyway, Bravo to all, thanks for sharing your skills and creativity.
