    Fantastic work! You brought a lot of emotions out of it. I perceived some of them right after making the image, but didn't know where to begin articulating them.

    Took me a while to think of a good open-ended one, but I think this one's good!

    * * *

    Freesound Music Challenge (FMC) 003 - "Frequenze Sequenze"

    Create a song which splits into at least two seperate songs before merging back into one again.

    Ideas for Methods:
    - Multiple tunes/multiple sets of instruments that get mashed up
    - Songs that can be interwoven or which have alternating parts (call-and-response, etc.)
    - A set of stems that get selectively muted/unmuted
    - A set of drones with the same starting pitch/texture which diverge and then return
    - A giant percussion kit which plays each different song on different pieces of the kit

    * * *

    Upload your composition and link it here to show us!

    If you want to help keep things organized, add the prefix "FMC003" to your track's name. This also helps us with making compilations and playlists, if we get to that point.

    Every time I've approached this prompt, I've overintellectualized it to the point of getting nothing done. So I tried to turn my brain off, make some material, and record a video of it. If you like rambling, bad audio quality and swearing coming from a sleep-deprived drunken hermit, this is the video for you!
    My actual FMC003 submission probably won't sound much like the result I got here, as much more work needs to be done, but I had fun making the video in any case. Fun is good. Don't forget to have that.

    I think the next one (FMC004) should definitely involve one or more Freesound sounds.

    Any suggestions for those?
