Parallel to the games in October, the Mix Challenge audio community is collecting sounds and samples for the upcoming Songwriting Competition in January 2025, called "Community Scramble", where it is only allowed to use these community sourced samples as main sound starting point.
Participants can however mangle this material through re-sampling, modulation, wavetable synthesis or similar. A limited additional instrument usage like a guitar or bass is allowed, as long as the recording is heavily altered in some shape or form:
- Songwriting Competition - Community Scramble 2025:
- Sound and sample collection for SWC089/January 2025.
- Deadline: 24th of December 2024.
