Dust
June 18, 2010
"Would you be interested in synth-ing piano samples into... everything? I mean, replicate other instrumental sounds with synth-modified piano.
Someone goes up into a dusty old attic because they hear some odd noises. There's nothing there, just an old piano. Could it be that the piano made the noise? They take off the dust cover and sit down and start to play...
and they can't stop. They are forced by something they can't explain to play. The player grows weak from exhaustion, thin and tired, playing for hours and days and weeks and months. Eventually they succumb, and collapse... into dust."

Wuffles
March 31, 2010
"You are a fluffy, white and very pampered male cat named Florence. You spend your days lounging by the window sill, drinking in the warm rays of the sunlight, or eating the food your pet offers you in return for your fifteen years of noble companionship. You have spent the day relaxing and enjoying being worshiped by your pet when your pet's mate brings home a new puppy. This will cut the attention they give you in half. The song would be Florence's thoughts on the matter."

The theme is up to you, but to get you started I might suggest day/night cycles. Lyrics as necessary."

Diablo ex Machina
May 20, 2009
"I'm looking for something you might imagine hearing while spelunking the core of some kind of Asimovian planetary computer, or perhaps I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream's computer.
That said, and despite the name, it isn't necessarily about a malevolent evil machine, though. Just an enormous, powerful, and inhuman one. It wouldn't torture you, but neural vivisection isn't out of the question."

The Hole
Nov. 23, 2008
"You are a worm. You live in a hole. The hole is life, it is your home. You cannot move, you cannot turn, you cannot blink your eyes, you have no eyes. The hole nurtures you, it cares about you. There are other with you, all in the hole, in the crevice between innumerable tons, underneath a crushing pressure. Everything outside the hole is death. Life outside the hole exists and it kills, oxygen and sunlight burn like fire. They kill you. Yet in the hole, you live. The hole provides, and you love. There is no escape."

That is gold you should use that."
