On January 21st, 2023, over 300 musicians and visual artists challenged themselves to create something in only 18 hours. Visual artists had to create a unique album cover & its supporting graphics, and musicians were limited to no less than 50 seconds and no more than 70 seconds for their songs; in short, a speedrun. The event encouraged creatives to think outside the box, picking their ideas apart in order to keep only the essentials. At the finish line, we received some of the most exciting tracks on a FORM compilation to date.

In the colors of each album cover and between the notes of each song are reflections of us— the artists. To leave pieces of ourselves *out* in lieu of a time constraint isn't easy, but it allows us to conclude what's at the center of what we create. Creativity, no matter how bare-bones or how complex & nuanced it is, is something nobody can ever take away.

All proceeds from any% will be going to SpecialEffect, a charity working to make video games accessible to those with physical disabilities.

Pictures of my old life

i was feeling dumb cuz i wish i never met her
blue hair, docs, and a strawberry sweatshirt

fight on the sidewalk over cash, whatever
you come to my show acting like you never
kigu in the park, my guitar, my letters
burning my CDs for the hot ass weather
got me in the booth saying "one more measure"
how were we friends when you got me in leather?
tabling a zine, i was glad i met her
but you're a fucking demon in a strawberry sweatshirt

how'd you make me think this shit was normal?
i was 17 and you were horrible
i'm going 3 years off your network
i don't miss your smile or your strawberry sweatshirt
did you find someone new to fuck up?
do you care that you left me fucked up?
i still think about if i still miss her
but you just drag me down in your strawberry sweatshirt
