Time for round #34 of the Fretboard Composition Challenge.
Every few months there'll be a composition challenge. It revolves around individuals or groups of forum members composing and recording music.
No prizes for this challenge. It's just for fun, a spur to creating, sharing, discussing music/recording and learning. Plus a way of testing the water with your creations and getting some feedback.
GUIDELINES -THEME
The theme for this one is:
A horror track. Thanks to
@Springywheel for suggesting the idea.
To encourage entries the theme isn't mandatory, but you might get more votes if you do something that's in some way linked to the theme. That depends on how individuals choose to vote.
Compose a tune, or recycle something you've composed previously.
Picture: In addition to the music, try to create your own picture that relates to your selected theme/title. This isn't mandatory.
