Here's the 54th Riff of the Month (RotM) Challenge.

As there haven't been so many entries recently, I've combined the previous RAW Riff of the Month (RRotM) and Riff of the Month (RotM) challenges into one.

The challenge is now open, and remains open for submissions until midnight on 23rd November 24th December 2019.

All you have to do is ...

Write a riff. It could be anything from a single RAW guitar track to a full mix of instruments. However, the focus must be on the riff. Most entries will probably be guitar based riffs, but they don't have to be.
Aim to 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, 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. The order and scores of the top three entries will be announced soon after the voting ends. 

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. Just a reminder that Riff of the Month (RotM) and Raw Riff of the Month (RRotM) are combined this month.

    Mine's a Raw Riff.

  • Entry closes tonight. Still only one entry.

    I'll think I'll combine it with Bass Riff of the Month next month until interest picks up.

    Thanks but I think it might be best to just start a new Riff of the Month next month which combines RotM, RawRotM and BRotM, as entries has declined. It's mainly just you and me these days :)

  • I'll carry this one over and combine it with BRotM as there's a decline in interest at the moment.
