Song Fu / SpinTunes
Songs that resulted from "Masters of Song Fu" or "SpinTunes" challenges

Our last SpinTunes song received a much better reception from the judges, though it still resulted in some widely different scores (which is a good thing, I think). This time around we came up with a piece that sounds like…
