This is the all-call message for April's Soundcloud Heroes community collaboration project.  Here are the details:

April is National Poetry Month, and we are launching a new community collaboration project called National Poetry Month Collaborations to commemorate this important form of art.

The goal of the project is to challenge everyone to share their favorite poetry in a creative way and to bring attention to the great pieces of poetry that are out there.
Whether you are a singer, musician, podcaster, spoken word artist, a novice or a pro at recording and mixing, you can choose how you'd like to be involved. We offer three different options of participation.

Here's how:
First join the National Poetry Month Collaborations group: https://soundcloud.com/groups/national-poetry-month-collaborations
You can participate in the following ways: 

Option 1 - Share a line of your favorite poetry or spoken word piece
Upload one line of your favorite poetry/spoken word piece. It can be from your favorite poet or from your own works. Tag the track "Oneliner." Name the title of your track "National Poetry Month: Your Name." For example: National Poetry Month: Christopher D. Sims. Credit the poem you decide to use in the description.

Option 2: Add to the poem or add backing music 
Download one of the "Oneliner" tagged submissions. Continue the poem, or provide original backing music to one of the pieces. The idea here is to create a completely new poem by adding a different line or music to it.
You can also add original music of your own, or invite other musicians or producer friends to add their music as a backing to your poetry remix.

3. By April 30, submit to the group https://soundcloud.com/groups/national-poetry-month-collaborations and be sure to include the name of everyone involved in your collaboration. Credit the poem you decide to use.
All submissions will be featured on the SoundCloud Heroes profile and featured here and on the SoundCloud blog.

SC Heroes presents: National Poetry Month Community Collaboration Project

This is my submission for the National Poetry Month Collaborations community collaboration project put out by the SC Heroes  (find out more here:  http://soundcloud.tumblr.com/post/46955630575/this-is-a-guest-post-by-soundcloud-hero-monica).  Part of the track was a remix I did of a remix done by Bijou of Ian Melvin's original track.  I added the "oneliners" submitted by Nina B, Sky Milan, and Bidoche Musique to that.  Producing is not really my forte, but I was inspired to experiment:) by everyone else's submission so far! This is what I looooove about SC!  Hope you like the finished product.  Thanks to everyone for their submissions!

**UPDATE**
Yes, still doing collaborations when I can --- but, focus is on a brand new project right now. Release Date is September 16, 2014. From the Heart - a collaborative album w/ http://www.soundcloud.com/derek-cornett.  Stay tuned in at http://www.monicadockery.com for updates on that project as well as on my Youtube for behind the music footage.

I love good music.  I try to make good music. Love sharing it on here and meeting other talented artists.  I have an eclectic style, I love all genres and like to collaborate with all walks of life:).  My first EVER album was released on October 15, 2013.  I poured my heart and soul into it.  Each song has been written and produced by yours truly (w/ the exception of a few of the drum tracks donated by some of my SC friends and a rap features by my good friends Ben Z, Dash the Baptist, TheNamesMillen). I wanted to produce/mix it myself because I wanted my first album to be a true reflection of me and my current level of skill/ability in all areas (even if it shows my weaknesses).  To me, authenticity is key and so is challenging oneself.  I think you'll find something in there to connect to...at least that is my hope.  Thank you to everyone who has inspired/encouraged me on here, without you, I would have never grown to find my own voice and to go through the work of putting this album together.  So BIG THANK YOU!!!  The album (free streaming) is at http://www.monicadockery.bandcamp.com.
