Based off a discussion from this morning, I set the theme for this week's #songAWeek challenge as "Community":

Looking for some songwriting inspiration?
Well, if you can stomach Reddit (yes, yes, I know) you might want to check out /r/songaweek, which I'm a mod for. We have a new theme to inspire you every Thursday - sometimes music theory, sometimes a word, or a concept.
I set today's theme - "Two […]
Also, trying to distract myself from the fairly awful politics going on today in the UK, I just tried out @mirlo 's post feature for the first time, to see if it would make a viable alternative to SoundCloud for my ad hoc #songAWeek releases.
It's definitely an option - there's no social […]
#songaweek 22 Mercies of the Wicked
Prompt was "wicked." Not an easy one, considering it's been used a lot recently via title of book/musical/movie. Also didn't want to write a humorous song about Boston slang, as I'm not a native born son.

I somehow managed to sneak a new Key 13 track out earlier this week, started and finished in 48 hours.. it's a slightly bland SynthWave-ish track, as I needed some music to go with some cover art I created!
And it's in Lydian because that was the theme for #songAWeek .. although you could […]
A little snippet of my newest song, Time Ticks Away. Here's to another year of #songaweek even if I already missed one! You can hear the whole thing over on my channel at youtube.com/ahniwa - thanks for listening!
The Week 2 prompt for #SongAWeek is _By The Numbers_: www.reddit.com/r/songaweek/comments/1hx...
Here's the blurb:

I've written my #SongAWeek track and made a quick recording but I can't stand listening to it. I'll try a little harder second time around.
So.. I was inspired by my own prompt for #SongAWeek on Thursday ("Passage of Time") and came up with this rather dark early-eighties thing. I nicked the title and lyrics off that bloke Rabindranath Tagore, hope he doesn't mind.
Of course, I should have been working on the collaboration I […]
For the musically inclined on here, I'm going to be attempting the song-a-week challenge that started over on Reddit. Not everyone uses Reddit so if anyone wants on fedi wants to join me, use the #SongAWeek hashtag to share your progress.
Week 1's (optional) theme is *The Passage Of Time)*

I'm a bit tired of these pointless clips...
Alright it's time to spice things up.
I will start a daily vlog and see if it sticks.

A new perspective...
New angle! What do you think?
Reflecting back on my previous song,
I could have created it more effectively.
For my next song, I laid the foundations first
and the lyrics became easier to write.
