Zong of the Week was launched in February 2004 as an experiment in creating and distributing music directly from the recording studio to the listener. The Zong of the Week creative team, led by songwriter-producer Paul Nordquist, delivered a fresh new song to the web every week. "You hear it when the
bytes have barely dried on the hard drive, sometimes mere hours after the
musicians have finished recording it," the Zong website boasted.
The Zong team also launched Kids' Zong of the Week in May 2004 to create new kid-friendly song downloads.
At the end of 2004, after churning out an impressive catalog of new songs, the Zong of the Week team called it quits and moved on to other projects. Zong of the Week became a blog spotlighting other artists' free MP3 download offerings.
This site presents the highlights of the 2004 Zong of the Week experiment. Click the song titles below for lyrics and information on individual songs. Most of these songs can be downloaded for free at music.download.com.
