The Song That Never Ends

Published on January 18th, 2010 in News, Projects & Performances

I found out about Jared Nielsen’s project while checking my own site’s statistics.  A noticeable “click-through” percentage was coming from his “The Song That Never Ends” page.  As I’m always curious about who is linking in my direction, I did some exploring.  This what I found:

The Song That Never Ends is the world’s largest musical collaboration. It is a randomly constructed experimental composition composed of audio tracks contributed by musicians internationally….

How it works:

  1. You create an audio track composed of one instrument and only one instrument. Or contribute a track you’ve already made. There are no limits on your choice of instrument, length of track, or style. Listen to a sample track.
  2. You submit the track(s) to The Song That Never Ends by emailing the mp3 or its link to me at post[at]jarednielsen.com.
  3. Your track will be added to the queue where it will be randomly mixed with three more tracks by musicians from around the world. When one track ends another is immediately selected and The Song plays forever.”

Somewhere, in one the pieces, I believe my Solo Guitar work is being used.  I haven’t heard it yet.  It’s a neat idea, I’m glad to be part of it…. just don’t know how it happened.  I tried contacting him, but his e-mail address was “returned to sender.”
