The Bothered Son and the Phony Ghost is a song about personal religious doubt. It turns epic, raucous, and boisterous, like potch’s previous song here, The Next Voice You Hear.

wheels come off (lucid mix) is more solid trip-hop from frequent guests Hot Bitch Arsenal. This Music Challenge involved spooky and Tom Waits.

musk is a pulsing, rather chill, jazzy song. Its creator calls it progressive grime, which might be plausible, but wow, I detest micro-genres.

Pemulis is garage rock. It’s about a character in David Foster Wallace’s “Infinite Jest,” by the band Derailleur, named after a part of a bicycle. This hits my buttons amusingly well.

Me Plug In is techno video game music.
It looks like this used to play at a different rate in Flash, but it works better now. It should be 2:22 long.

Thank You is a noodly and spacy electronica take on an Alanis Morissette song.

Supergirl is an uplifting, harmonizing, & poppy song, a father cheering on his daughter.

This is the demo of Let It Go or Give In, just a singer and her guitar. As it evolved, pazazygeek posted different versions of it – take 2 and the album version.

As We Move Along (rough mix) is some shouty pop-punk, which I like – though I don’t think it needs the High Fidelity sample.

Satiomega is great music for a (tragically, thus far non-existent) video game.

Mixado Ar Sinore is just a charming, loopy song with squealing synths. It’s based on Haddado TarraT odaddaH, a nice electronica song that looped back into reverse, becoming a mirror or palindrome of itself.

Flyball’s Lament (the better one) is a newer version of the simpler, stripped-down first attempt. It’s a silly & fun song.

Server Sound is a muscular but laidback song with random samples layered over synths.
Oh, this was the first of many songs tehloki posted. I love his music! His music’s more notable than his favoriting habit.

Old Man is a sad, pretty cover of a Randy Newman song, from his 1972 album “Sail Away,” well before he composed songs for Pixar movies.

This is an educational song about how (some) snakes are Green and Long and Mean. To be fair, not all snakes are mean; some snakes are very friendly, willing (eager, even) to give full-body hugs.
This concludes the second Music Challenge, snakes.
Edit: Whoops! This was meant for Monday’s post.

The Imlovence (of My Heart) is an offbeat snapshot of a specific moment, though it’s sad that it takes a derogatory stance against “nonexistent” words.
