So most of these songs come from what you've already written in late 2000s - early 2010s, I assume. Are you picking these by order of when you wrote them, or do you do by random/what looks most appealing?
in 2012 i learned how to update/finish/fix. and i did that nonstop throughout 2012 and 2013 and later. that makes it an entire catastrophe just to fiture out even when a song was written. it's well documented but most songs have multiple dates they were worked on. so it wouldn't even be possible to figure out that order. i have used brute force randomization, but more renctly i've been using a hybrid semi-randomization, where i make manual exclusions and then randomize amongst the finalists. also in the last 2 years i have allowed myself to pick fragments, which means the majority will be current writing (outside, movie star, got to know what's, etc)
