Raw Riff of the Month (RRotM) #39 - Chat

stratman3142

Here's the 39th RAW Riff of the Month (RRotM) Challenge.

The challenge is now open, and remains open for submissions until 11:30pm on 24th August 2018.

RAW Riff of the Month (RRotm) is different to the other (RotM) riff challenge because you are only allowed to submit a recording with one layer of guitar, but you can use standard guitar effects such as wah, distortion, delay, modulation etc. This is all about one amazing riff and nothing else. 

All you have to do is ...

Write a riff.

Record it with one layer of guitar (standard guitar effects are also permitted)

Keep it to a maximum of 50 seconds. This is about riffs, not songs.

Send your entry (as an mp3) to riffs@theFB.co.uk

Include your forum name in the email.

Voting will start soon after the submission deadline of 24th August 2018, with each voter selecting their 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice.

First choice gets 5 points - Second choice gets 3 points - Third choice gets 1 point

Voting will end on 11.30pm 31st August 2018

The order and scores of the top three entries will be announced soon after the voting ends. If there are 8 or more entries, then the order and scores of those in the top half will be announced.

No prizes. It's just for fun.

As people submit their entries, I'll post them below to hopefully promote some discussion on approaches used.

Done mine. I'll post a playlist when I get another entry.

All very quiet here. It would be good to get some entries.

Still nothing

Only a few day remaining. Entry closes 11:30pm on 24th August 2018.

If I don't get at least three entries I'll carry this one over to next month.

Two in the playlist. Just need one more to avoid a carry over to next month.

Entry closes tonight (24th August) at 11.30pm.
At least one more entry is needed. Otherwise I'll carry this one over to next month so we can get at least three entries.
