Browsing the SoundCloud blog I just noticed this group of songwriters trying to get a competition going; all you have to do is write a 1 minute song – the most dramatic song wins.

I think this is an excellent idea for a competition and a good test of your songwriting skills. Please take a look at this group and submit your entry. All you need is a SoundCloud account and some way of recording your music, oh and some talent and a bit of taste.

If you want an idea of what you’ll be up against, listen to the group’s set below.
