Ways to win: Use your initiative. Think out the box, let people know that this genre allows for a lot of diversity, ingenuity and creativity. Choose any way you want to do it. Use loops, use session drummer, whatever. All material (except samples) must be original. However, beats loop samples/pads riffs etc cannot be used as is, beat tempo cannot be the same, and cannot be used in the same context as original source.

Well...I'm not sure how we're going to go about a 'blind judging', but let me kick things off with my submission(I'm a judge, so my submission doesn't count...but please enjoy it anyways!). It's called "Willy", and it can be heard here... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/8/turtlebend2music.htm Let the contest begin!

why is it a rule that it must be recorded in Sonar?
this is a Cakewalk Song forum. even though it's obviously dominated by Sonar users that's more an historical artifact
I work in P-5 with electronica
now if I do the whole tune in P-5 and Rewire to Sonar for final rendering does that qualify? How would anybody ever tell
if I can enter, I enter 'seasonal Chill' on my soundclick site in the signature

why is it a rule that it must be recorded in Sonar thanks for pointing this out, we have changed the guideline now to allow tracks written using ANY cakewalk product. (see above for details).

so.... wheres the upload FTP site? This is gonna rock! And where will the songs be stashed? Dont you think they should only be streamable? (copyrights etc). And... do we have to wait til Feb 28 to begin uploading??? How will voting occur (on the honour system?). Details. More details.  P.S. Please post answer to this thread in P5 forum, Bubblefish... I dont check any other forums.

hi there
sorry i can't confirm anything at the moment as i don't personally have access to the FTP site until after 28th feb.
however maybe i can post a list of all the entries before diving into anonimity to make sure everyone that wanted to is up there, watch this space i guess...
thanks for taking the time though.

hey bubble! Thats a fantastic idea! It'd be great to see a list of entries (perhaps even with the title of the songs before they become destined for anonymity!) ... who knows. But it'd also give everyone some scope into how much work will be going in to the judging process! Thanks again Bubblefish!

I entered a song, but I don't know if I notified correctly. Am I supposed to email "campo@badloop.com" or I am supposed to leave a post here.
How will you identify which song belongs to which person? Just curious.

You don't need to email anyone. i suppose they will assemble a list of song names/artist and assign each one a number. Then they will rename all these songs to the coresponding number and only refer to the list once the votes are in to determine who has won. Thats only my guess...that's how I'd do it. Maybe even get a person to number them who isnt judging to ensure that it is a random process.
