Music Composition Collab (name in progress)
I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but if you are a musician or a good composer, we could together:
1. Compose a piece of music that has to do with a certain subject. (any suggestions for what kind of subject?) Each of the participants could compose a few measures- for example, it would be something like this:
User A: Measures 1-14
User B: Measures 15-20
User C: Measures 21-27
User D: Measures 28-36
User A (again): Measures 37-42
User E: Measures 43-50
etc., etc.
2. One of the participants could come up with a musical theme and every participant will write a variation or anything else (such as a fugue).
The reason why I sound unsure is because I am uncertain that this is a good idea. Please give your opinion (whether or not you think this idea is good) and please state which event you want to be in (compose a few measures, compose a theme, or compose a variation). Thanks!

Hmm. I'm not sure how this would work, but I guess I'm in...

Re: Music Composition Collab (name in progress)
Maybe it'd work if each user composed a movement of a classical piece, or a track in an album. Having each user compose only some measures might be too restricting (you'd have to stick to the theme) and might cause ideas to clash.
I'm in to see if it works, you may see the stuff I've done so far in my NG page and this Scratch gallery. I can compose pretty much any music genre, though I'm better at rock stuff, and some electronic and classical.
Ideas: A classical piece divided in movements like I said above. Or maybe a rock opera, but I'm not sure if everyone that will participate in this collab can make rock music.
Oh and I might be able to sing a little too. I'm a bass if that works.
