A WORD FROM FORESIGHT!
“My personal favorite track was “Nova,” by Ozcii. I absolutely loved the garage influence in the drop, and the sudden changeups between grimy basses never gets old. The key change in the second drop is just unbelievable. Congrats to Cal, Ejektor, and Cyberbit for placing the top 3! I loved listening to every one of these tracks, thank you all so much for entering”

A WORD FROM GRAWL!X
“Personally, my favorite track out of all of the incredible entries was ‘An Hour’ by cyberbit. One of, if not the, most complex and incredible track ever made on soundation. If any entry deserves a feature, it’s that one. Thanks so much for entering!”

A WORD FROM CYCLOSA
“My favorite track of the contest was AFTER HOURS by J.A.C.O.B. Ive always been a fan of his music and this track perfectly describes what hes got. Congrats to Calum Hood, Ejektor & Mah Boi, Cyberbit for placing top 3! HUGE thank you to everyone for the amazing turn out this year, you guys forced me to have to announce the top ten, and i still haven’t mentioned all the bomb ass tracks entered this year!”

Since I've had to use my electro house song for my remix contest entry, and I'm short for time, am I allowed to enter a tropical house song (something similar to Faul & Wad Ad Vs Pnau - changes)

It seems just about every house genre has 4x4/4 to the floor beats. The differences happen with the snare, for example some houses have no snares at all except maybe an off beat filler snare every 8 to 16 bars. Some have snares on 2 and 4 of a 1, 2, 3, 4 beat. Electro House typically has kicks on 1 2 3 & 4th spots, and snares on 2 & 4th spots. Obviously you don't have to absolutely follow that sequence but according to my example tracks, that is the best option

@NKM True. Even though both can have the same beat, prog house hasn't got a electro drop or anything. So @OPC you should contact @CYCLOSA for this and make the drop of your song more like electro house. Wish y'all luck! (I won't enter)

NO. IT. DOES. NOT. Progressive house has a 4 to the floor beat, that's not electro house is it? Future house and electro house are completely different things. I don't understand how this is a difficult concept to grasp

@Dazzio not sure but you'd definitely lose marks in the "originality" category.
