After a slight delay, here's the topic for the TIGSource Musical Challenge VI:

Descent into Madness!

Start with any type of tune you'd like, hinting at what's to come only subtly, if at all. By the end of the song, it should have evolved to reflect the slow demise of a character's psyche as, say, their mind is overtaken by a malicious external influence.

I chose the word madness, but I will be flexible there--feel free to ignore the negative connotation as long as some sort of surreal, chaotic elements are introduced throughout the song!

Challenge ends next Friday, May 11th at 8:00 PM (GMT - 8:00) <- new deadline
Hope to hear your take on it!

Personal side note:
I won the previous challenge by default, which was a bummer. Don't let some other poor soul suffer the same fate if you can help it! I tried to come up with a prompt that wasn't any kind of barrier for entry, but that ended up adding to my putting this post off, so I went with my initial idea, which I'm afraid might be tricky--hope it works.

Well, I didn't make a new song for this, given that finals are occurring. However, maybe one of my older songs fits the prompt.

Ah this sounds fun Smiley it's a little late into this one to do it (though I have an idea or two floating around) but I'd be up for the next one!

Nice one quentunahelper!

Anyone else working on anything? 2 days till the deadline... These appear to have a history of getting extended, and I'm open to following suit on that.

They also have a history of being a bit longer than a week.  Maybe the end of the school year has a hand in the inactivity, or the inactivity of the challenge itself.

Hmm, I looked at the past few, and they all appeared to start out with a week and then extend out to ~1.5 weeks as the deadline neared. I didn't want to build an extension in from the get-go, but it's certainly an option at this point! If people want to take advantage of some extra time, let me know!

Good to hear some interest! Would keeping it open until this Friday be enough, or would another weekend be better?
