@apolymask and @bashadow. It varies for people over how long it takes to make a recording from scratch. A week from zero, is on the short side of you are learning something completely new. But I don't think I would be making a new recording of anything for this round, as it is a bit dangerous for a professional musician to have something out in public that isn't as close to 100 percent in everything as possible. It is the reason I avoid the music competitions here on Steemit as well.
I do intend to write something though! I have the germ of the idea formed...
Thank you for that perspective, things to think about.
