Festival Music

It's festival season for a lot of us. That means being outside around thousands of people listening to a variety of music and enjoying the vibrations.

Festival music can be a wide variety of music hence why we might have a large variation in the types of entries this round.

Music played at festivals can be that EDM-style music, that upbeat pop type, that acoustic, jam band style music, to many other genres.

However this Festival Music theme means to you let's hear it o weeeeeeee.

Looking forward to hearing the creations from the incredible producers in the Steemit Universe.

Remember the entries are judged on:

  • Sound Quality: does the sound crispy, in speakers and headphones, is there cracking or recording errors? How loud can we play it before you notice quality issues? etc

  • Technicality: what are the skills you displayed in making this beat? The technical aspects of the your craft. The layers and sounds do they match? How many? etc

  • Creativity: how unique your entry is. How well it revolves around the universal theme? O we have never heard that sound before? And the amount of work you put into your post and entry.

Also, sharing the story about the creation of your art in your Steemit post helps the judging panel and community gain perspective and knowledge on yourself and the message you are sharing.
