Hello Ghouls & Gals, welcome to our 2019 Freak Fest Challenge.  Halloween is right around the corner, so we figured we’d get an early start on creating some freakish, creepy, morbid, terrifying music.

Below you'll find the guidelines – if you’re up for the challenge, please jump in!

laughing Your project must be a ‘Public’ project (that way the public can listen to your creations along the way – you can also post your progress via social media)

laughing Your project must use the ‘Equal Shares’ collaboration agreement

laughing Your song must be Halloween themed, for instance - Lyrics can include words like ‘Freak’, ‘Spooky’, ‘Maniac’, ‘Halloween’, etc.  If your project is an instrumental, the music must be themed appropriately

laughing Your song must be original, 100% written, recorded, and produced

laughing Your cover art must include the colors orange and black

Any member can enter, and as always, this is a challenge, not a competition so everyone who is part of a completed project gets a $10.00 ProCollabs credit, which you could use, for example, towards a renewal, upgrade or add on. And of course, a PC Grammy, which will display on your profile page.

The deadline for this challenge is October 28th, 11:00pm EST.  If you submit your song after the deadline, you won’t be eligible for the PC credit or Grammy – No Exceptions

Not a requirement, but if it helps, here are some creepy song titles you can use as a reference…

Freakenstein

Morbid Mindy

Haunted Highway to my Heart

Secaucus Slayer

Killer Klaus

These themed Challenges are brilliant, I remember joning in the Halloween Challenge a few years back in a team with Andrew and Xan and coming up with this little number:

I reckon we could get a great selection of spooky tracks this year especially now there’s a lot more members here.

That’s two great Challenges on the go now.........it’s like buses in London, there’s none and then suddenly two turn up together :-)

Just to be clear, "Public by Invite" means public Invite and auditions by invitation, correct?

In other words, if someone wants to collaborate with me, I have to invite them first?

I hope to work on multiple entries this year, but here's a project for anyone that likes Electronic music:

Hey Ryan, I believe "Public" part means that the Featured track can be listened to outside of ProCollabs as well as on the site (so general public) and the "Invite Only" part as you say means invitations only.
