Inspired by missamerica's button bumper, thought this could be useful if we ever do anything with childhood/play/etc. It was originally 30 seconds which I thought was too long so I sped it up. If anyone wants the original for any reason, let me know.
Excellent! I particularly like the sped up film effect as well as the camera movements. It'd be great to have this cut tighter and with some music or additional visuals, etc. Nice job!
This has been one of my favorites for a long time. Love the lyrics, the singing, and the themes of the track with relation to growing up. Musicians should give a listen and lend some more sounds to this one. <3
I guess I just sort of wondered what would happen to the road if it didn't have all of those flickering lights around at night...
Beautifully simple. I think this is off to a great start and would like to see LifeAboveTheWaterline's text and/or illustration remixed into more Tiny Story contributions. I think this one's got a lot of potential!

Revisited this great song and transformed it with contributions from a number of existing records and collaborations. 95% of this song is recycled records, I kept my input very minimal.
Wow, what a remix! You’ve taken a classic and turned it into something really fresh and different. It reminds me of something Elizabeth Fraser would come out with. And what a great use of resources from all over the site! The instrumental version has been listed as a result, and I think it would be great to get stems of your mix as well. I would be really interested to see what’s done with this track, whether it be adding to your mix or creating a new song using the instrumental.
Yeah, we're gonna need a lot of cool bumpers like this for the TV show. Well done! Marke was just talking about the combination of "real" physical objects with digital post-production. Feels hand-made, feels good.
The additions to alibutcher's image remix are really stellar, and this image remix really feels like a nice fit with the "drawn" tiny story. It'd be cool to see if other stories on the site match up with this as well. Also, what new stories might this inspire?
Fantastic bit of animation and really cool sound design - a sensational resource for Video Editors to remix and all around cool viewing experience. Welcome to hitRECord, davidjames1993!
This beat is RIPE FOR REMIX! Whose on deck? Rappers? Piano, Bass, Horns, All Players - Get down with this beat! Kamau_Telson is contributing some killer jams - thanks Kamau!
This is a GREAT illustration — certainly ripe for a Tiny Story...
I was thinking it'd be cool to write a story about how humans have never recognized a unicorn because of preconceived/distorted notions of beauty....or something.
A deadline is just what I needed.
I tried a whole different process this time which emphasized time over quality and it came out decently.
Red is nice but green and blue work perefectly well.
I got a bit carried away when I experimented with a hair drawing pattern and ultimately reminded me of ribbons(thus the title). It ended up in a similar theme as my first REC FiveBeardedFaces.
I resourced a few Tiny Stories that I thought the image could illustrate.
Remix away my friends.
Each Recommend and Remix is greatly appreciated and cherished.
Excellent use of lines to create an illustration that could be told in text form in many different ways. Let's keep crafting some stories of the tiny variety for this, or curate some existing text from the site. Outstanding job on this, whomeltsafter!
Love how the trees are used to represent solitary confinement. It really leaves the illustration open to writers to integrate that motif into their text remixes - or they could go in a totally different direction altogether. Another fantastic illustration, soju!

CHALLENGE BY Matthew_Lister
'I've always wanted to visit the UK but never had the money. Bring it to me, in a song. Please.'
This is my first EVER nationalist song. I'm currently in the green, serene scene of southwest Wales, and thus have been inspired to write this for Matt. I'm not even nearly as skilled as Matt on the guitar, but it's something, and I hope, Matt, that you can picture the UK from these words.
Lyrics
Let me go out to the country,
Where trees have stood for a thousand yeras,
The sky is clear and quiet above me,
And the morning birdsong fills my ears,
Let me go into the city,
Where every colour fills the streets,
A manic masterpiece in motion,
It's oh so stirring and oh so sweet,
Let me go to the British border,
Where songs are sung of the olden day,
Public houses hold the worker,
And all of them sing their cares away,
And all of them drink their cares away,
Let me leave my resting headstone,
By that old cathedral in that Pembroke town,
I fell in love with an island kingdom,
And all of the things it's based around.
10 DOWN!

this is just wonderful i keep listening to it. as much as i love it's folk simplicity, maybe we can add 1 or 2 instruments to it? but beyond that.. i really think there's a collab here. i'm not sure what it is. it's not quite a cities collab but by the same sentiment, expressing what you love about where you're from. i've always been wary of people being 'proud' of where they're from and i've always frowned upon art with a national fervor. but i really like when people are INSPIRED by where they're from. i think these sweet lyrics sort of encompass that inspiration and longing for the place you fell in love with. perhaps it could even fall into a 'home' collab? i'm not sure if there is one already.

At the minute I first heard TheBaerGypsy's undescribably beautiful instrumental "Green Set Overture" (go check it out it's amazing!), for some reason I thought of the "Whale house" by rabbleboy. I guess there's just something so surreal and illogical in both of them, they're so beautifully dream-like... I don't know, it's a little experimental but I just had to sing it. Hopefully it inspires someone to do something :) I'll upload the stems first thing tomorrow!
Enjoy <3
It’s all just a bad dream don’t cry
It’s all just a dream, it’ll be alright
Let me tell you what we’ll see when we wake up
Let me tell you what we’ll see, let me tell you where we really are
We sail away on a whale
At the dawn of a brand new day
We’ve planted all the trees and we’ve built our own house
And no one has drowned
We sail away on a whale
No one cries, no one feels pain
Hear how the wind whispers, you heard what she said:
oh man this is beautiful, your dreamy vocals compliment TheBaerGypsy's track so nicely, and i love how the lyrics were inspired by that cool image. maybe it's time to start thinking about turning making that image move
'And the Poet's pinned tragedies to their chests like ribbons' - Iamcalledchief
I was inspired by Redheadmonster's original image from the short story 'First Place Goes To' by iamcalledchief but thought maybe it needed an alternative angle to it!
I have remixed, but I cannot create the same simplistic beauty of the original image.
i do like this drawing for the tiny story it was drawn for, but it's such a mysterious and beautiful illustration i would love to see more tiny stories for this image.

I really loved the pop feel of this song and wanted to sing along. I really wanted to keep the sweet/candy theme and of course it turned super sexual. ;)
Lyrics:
Ice cream and lollipops
So much better than sugar rox
Melts just like butterscotch
Ice cream and lollipops
Ice cream and lollipops
You're my sweet little gumdrop
You got flavor ain't no one gonna top
Ice cream and lollipops
You're my man, my sugar daddy
Big hunk, makes me feel so dandy
Don't mind if I get a little randy
But I can't keep my hands off your rock hard candy
