dibs on "Plastic"

Stray Dog

Tutti Frutti

Superheated

ah it's been a long time : always a pleasure !
not great song titles imo...
OK I'll go with "Restless".

Any specific constraints ?

it should be something silly/arbitrary like "only half the songs are allowed to mention the title in the lyrics"

"only two songs are allowed to mention the title in the chorus"

Or each song has to mention the title of another song.

concept album.
rockopera.

"Title can only be mentioned no more than once"

I'll take "nothing but a fool"

Okay, updating where we are at -- five more to claim:

Restless -- AlXTC
Singularity
Plastic -- DJP
Tutti Frutti -- Mark G
People On The High Line
Stray Dog _Chaki
Academic
Nothing But A Fool -- da croupier
Unlearn This Hatred
The Game
Superheated -- aldo

"I'll take nothing but a fool"
that's a much better title !

I am compelled to choose "Academic" though I haven't had any time/drive to play in a while. Track lengths or are those TBA?

And yes, I refuse to beat match unless it's taken out to the fifth decimal place.

Sorry AlXTC, da croupier already claimed it.

Matt -- no track lengths.

(Ah wait I see what AlXTC meant. Rush reading!)

Quick note that get bent has claimed "People on the High Line"

I would like to claim "Singularity" if no one has stealthily grabbed it elsewhere.

They have not, it is yours. So, updating -- two to go!

Restless -- AlXTC
Singularity -- Sean Carruthers
Plastic -- DJP
Tutti Frutti -- Mark G
People On The High Line -- get bent
Stray Dog _Chaki
Academic -- Matt M.
Nothing But A Fool -- da croupier
Unlearn This Hatred
The Game
Superheated -- aldo

I'll take 'Unlearn This Hatred' please.

Done. Just "The Game" left to claim...anyone?

someone contact The Game, maybe we can get him to take it

He'll probably do it too.

I'll do it

Got it, done, and thanks -- full lineup now set, and we just need cover art.

Restless -- AlXTC
Singularity -- Sean Carruthers
Plastic -- DJP
Tutti Frutti -- Mark G
People On The High Line -- get bent
Stray Dog -- Chaki
Academic -- Matt M.
Nothing But A Fool -- da croupier
Unlearn This Hatred -- snoball
The Game -- sarahell
Superheated -- aldo

sarahell, I hope you consider doing your piece as a cut-up sound collage of "Hate It Or Love It"

also use a sample of Miguel saying "Game" from his song on that one Hunger Games soundtrack

Okay, snoball's entry is in and a reminder to everyone else you have until the end of the month. I'd like to set the exact deadline as the 29th, since I'll be heading out on vacation for a week on August 1st, and this'll give me a chance to get everything going and 'release' it on Friday the 31st.

We also still need cover art!

ah. I have started to play with some ideas but since I'm in the middle of moving between two places, I don't have most of my equipment/instruments... it's gonna be very low-fi !

Quick note that Matt M. needs to withdraw from his contribution, "Academic," so if anyone wants to step up!

I'll take it!

ums i wish you were doing stray dog as a follow up to LITTLE DOG tbqfh

UMS has it and I look forward to the results!

cool! nick - little dog is was lightning in a bottle (for both us and loutallica)

I used to video the girls doing music stuff at home, someof them are still on YouTube, but I missed out Amber's version of "Little Dog" which you'd have loved.

haha cute

parts of "Little Dog" will occasionally get stuck in my head!

Reminder that the deadline submission is a week from this Wednesday!

oh wow, already ?
time flies... OK, I'll try to finish it by the end of the w-e.
still no cover art ?

ok i can scramble it together!

Anyone want to take on "Tutti Frutti"?

I did work on a new track, but the software lags the tracks I recorded really badly, and it might sound ok after a months worth of work. But not now.

Time enough for someone? If not, I can dig out an older track ready-made..

Three days to go, folks!

"The Game (ft. The Game)"

I will be ready on time, almost finished !

oh yeah, this

Thanks to a complete internet failure over the weekend I am ever so glad I managed to get mine to Ned last weekend. I am still hopeful I will get my bonus WIP idea out at some point, will probably upload to Bandcamp next weekend (assuming I have internets by then) and post here.

ned sent mine :)

Got it, thanks!

Also, due to get bent leaving ILX -- no thanks to those who prompted that, good job there ya goofs -- "People On the High Line" is open if someone just wants to throw in something quick.

sent !

Okay thanks, we have four to go (probably three given get bent's departure as noted).

It could be a ghost track with only silence if no one has something to submit !

I have an extra track I could send Ned - what's the title supposed to be?

"People on the High Line"

that's cool !
and still no cover art ?
no visual artist among the participants (clearly not me !) ?

ned just sent

Thanks UMS. And we have random standin cover art via Sean C. which I'll use if nothing else comes in!

mine will be very, very late

tonight I mean

All good!

just sent a potential cover

Got it!

oh lol I forgot what my song was called

Ned, can you change the name or should I resend it?

mine's coming. my big ilx comeback track.

DJP: no worries, I'll change it.

Chaki: cool!

That just leaves sarahell

we have until Friday yeah?

I'd prefer to make it available on Friday! I'm heading out on a short vacation for a week that night, so if you can get it to me tonight or tomorrow morning so I can review everything and 'debut' it Friday morning, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

will try

Chaki's is in, so we're almost there!

Peer pressured sarahel to finish her's at the Lydia Lunch show tonight.

Rocking!

Okay still waiting on sarahell but I'm giving everything else a once-over -- great stuff as always!

Will be launching new thread in a few minutes!

And we're live:
