I'm giving away 100% upvotes to all entries and 5 Steem to my favorite song.
EDIT - MONDAY MARCH 5 -- I am surprised and delighted by the huge number of participants in this contest. Tomorrow morning around 10am NYC time I will make the final decisions and send out all the prizes!
Google Song Maker Rules
Google's latest music-related app takes fun music making to a new level. This one is surprisingly deep, allowing you up to 3 octaves of range with full chromatic note choice (no limitation of one scale or small set of notes), you've got a few different drum sounds to pick from, and the color scheme is AMAZING for learning how to hear the notes better.
Basically it's a way to make some music in 30 mins and have fun while powering up your brain. TBH I feel like using this for 15 mins a day could actually be a pretty great way to do "ear training" and composition/songwriting practice at all once.
Here's my favorite experiment so far (note - original song written by the band "chon"): https://musiclab.chromeexperiments.com/Song-Maker/song/5470055047364608
How to Participate
It's simple: Visit the Google Chrome Music Lab: https://musiclab.chromeexperiments.com - whip up a track for about 30 mins. Then, share the track and a few sentences about your experience making the song - how was the app?
After that, you'll receive a 100% upvote from me ($0.60 or so) and I might follow you if it turns out we have similar music taste. No promises tho. My favorite song will receive 5 steem, to be awarded in a day or two whenever I feel like it.
Cool? Oh one last thing -- TAG A FRIEND who you should participate! If you do this AND submit a song, I will send you an extra 1 steem bonus guaranteed (first 10 participants only).
Steem on,
