UPDATE: I've been asked for an extension by enough of y'all that I'm granting it! You have an additional month to work on this challenge since it's a hefty one. New due date is August 31st at midnight wherever you are in the world. Yah that's right! You are tasked with making a track (or unfinished idea) in a genre that is a distinct departure from what you usually do. You don't have to know the name of the genre. But I'd like you to pick a sound that is distinctly different or even feels like the opposite of what you usually make. If you don't know what you usually make, feel free to drop links to some of your music in #i-made-this on the Discord channel and the community can tell you what you are ;) The challenge is not to succeed in this objectively, it's just to get you out of your comfort zone and try something new!

Use THIS FORM to submit.

Submissions are due at midnight wherever you are in the world on August 31st!

Ooh, how fun! If I were a musician, I'd be keen to give this a try. Instead, I'm gonna challenge myself to listen to a genre I normally wouldn't for the whole month and see how that goes :) EDIT: So I'm less than one minute into a Reggaeton playlist and yeah this challenge ain't for me, lol. I like my comfort zone! *Returns to blasting KoRn and Nine Inch Nails daily*

Great challenge for my first month here, might try to do this one! A bit tricky to know what genre to pick though since I’ve dabbled in almost everything for the past 25 years as a musician :)

Can't decide if going for some classic DnB is far enough away from my usual... Or if I need to devolve fully into some classical routes to the likes of which perhaps Vivaldi may have enjoyed... Hmmm... Either way, this is going to be freaking awesome

What about DnB with classical elements? ;)
