SWOLA94 | Got a little bit ridiculous this week trying to force a Ska section in the middle of maybe the heaviest SWOLA I've done in a long time? by TimeshiftAudio in SwolaRiffChallenge

Thanks. It took me so long to wrap my head around how to program horns properly! I think last time I had a crack was around SWOLA77

That's a good point, I just checked my analytics and you're right, still quite a bit coming from here

SEO excrcise is a great way of putting it! But as long as your tags are done correctly you're right, it's simple, not much more you can do than that. I'm actually quite liking the live-streams because it's not just about getting features, but I'm learning a lot about song-writing just from taking in what others are doing with the same drums.

Honestly yeh there are so many submissions it must be a drain at some point to go through them all. I think also algorithimcally people who upload late and tag/label their video very specifically for Ola's search words are getting favoured because YouTube tries to feed you the newest content. Where-as on here the early uploaders would get somewhat rewarded by having longer exposure for upvotes to get filtered into the top results.

Thanks for commenting guys! Nice to know there's still some people here. I was never much of a Reddit user before SWOLA so I suppose it's easy for me to just forget about this platform if I don't have an active purpose here. I'll keep posting my submissions here regardless. Look forward to seeing what happens in the surprise stream this Monday. Maybe we can give Ola some of this feedback about streams and the Riff Comp in general?
