Music challenges
================

There are several self organized timed music challenges, here are those I found:

The `Song Fight! <http://www.songfight.org/>`_ (and `here <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_Fight!>`_) is a weekly challenge. A theme roughly each week, a song, vote at the end and here we go for another Song Fight!

The `National Solo Album Month <https://nasoalmo.org/>`_ (NaSoAlMo): an equivalente to the `NaNoWriMo <https://nanowrimo.org>`_ where you have one single month (November) to **record** one solo album around 29:09 long (but anything you do is better than nothing done!).

The `FAWM Challenge <https://fawm.org/>`_ (and `here on Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_Album_Writing_Month>`_): the goal here is to **compose** 14 original musical works during the month of February. The FAWN is a quite organized community with its vocabulary where the participants (called "fawmers") can exchange, give advices or collaborate.

The same website also welcomes the `50 Songs in 90 Days <http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/>`_ (50/90 or fiftyninety): as the name says from July 4 to October 1 you aim to **compose** 50 songs in 90 days.

The 50/90 is generally followed by an informal internal challenge (on the forum, no particular space) named `Rocktober <https://fiftyninety.fawm.org/forums/189>`_ taken as the traditional 50/90 "after party": during October the 50/90 participants make cover versions of song, idealy 50/90 songs. The "neccessary cleansing in order to start fresh again in february".

The `RPM Challenge <https://www.rpmchallenge.com/>`_ (and `there <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPM_Challenge>`_) invite also in February participants to write original music (not the same rules each year).

The same community welcomes the `REM Challenge <https://www.rpmchallenge.com/remchallenge>`_ (Record Every Month): a challenge to record an original track each month.

To finish, `here's a list <https://www.wikiwrimo.org/wiki/List_of_timed_artistic_challenges>`_ of timed artistic challenges gathered by the NaNoWriMo contributors.
