Hrmm. I couldn't come up with anything good, so I went the opposite way Hence my cheezy sounding C64 rendition. The main instrument is a C64. If you look at the MIDI tracks, its kind of interesting how I added a track called white noise to imitate the computer's inability to produce very high notes.

That's very interesting, i love it! But of course, i don't understand it at all and therefore can't comment on it.

Anyone else, or do i have to resort to more merciless killing?

Well, if you do, be sure to ask the Lord High Executioner (David) for the temporary use of one of his dungeons. He may even loan you one of the Baron's (generally larger, better-stocked, further underground, and more terrifying) if you come up with an inventive enough method of murder.

I haven't been able to make enough time to get around to any of these melody challenges other than the first one...and even then it took me awhile. Keep them going, though! I think they're neat.

Letehn, I'm very interested about hearing your harminization when the contest is over. By the way Wolf_88 was talking about it, it sounds pretty good. Oh yeah, and thanks for going easy on my lackluster harminization

Hmm, that's a tough one. By the way, what is a C64?

Hey! Watch it!

The John Cage Foundation migth sue you.

I get the point though, this melody is almost impossible, at least the way it is now.

PS: If you want me to put up a melody of yours, please send me a PM.
