Working with the Cornell Lab&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/macaulaylibrary.org\">Macaulay Library<\/a>, they chose 10 birds from our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutbirds.org\/news\/2012\/12\/04\/with-digitization-complete-hear-7-of-the-coolest-natural-sounds-in-our-archive\/\">150,000-song archive<\/a> and put the recordings on their website for download. Audio curator Greg Budney helped narrow down the list and appeared on the program to kick off the challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Listeners simply had to incorporate one or more of the songs into a piece of music that they composed. The show&#8217;s producers received more than 100 entries in genres ranging from classical to electronica.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend they announced the overall winner and two judges&#8217; favorites. The winner, Marlo Reynolds, composed a jazzy collage called &#8220;Certhia Americana.&#8221; The title refers to the Brown Creeper, whose sharp, insistent song runs throughout the piece. Filling out the music is a spoken-word performance that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutbirds.org\/guide\/brown_creeper\/id\">remixes written descriptions from our All About Birds species account<\/a> into a meditative poem.<\/p>\n<p>The show also posted all the entries to their page for anyone who wants to have a listening party and witness the full range of creativity of Studio 360&#8217;s listeners\u2014including a melancholy loon accompanied by banjo, a dancefloor workout bubbling with the likes of Ruffed Grouse, Wood Thrushes, and Canyon Wrens, and a tension-filled piece that sets a Common Loon and a Winter Wren against a choir to arrive at something you might hear on a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0258463\/\">Bourne Identity<\/a> soundtrack. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.studio360.org\/2013\/apr\/05\/winner-remixing-spring\/\">Listen for yourself<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last month, along with the rest of us, the national radio program Studio 360 started getting spring fever.
