[size=7]Judging template:[/size]


- Production Quality: --/10

The overall production quality of the mix.

- Originality: --/10

How well the song exhibits a new structure within the same genre or how effective is the jump to a different genre and how well the new structure supports it.

New sounds used, chopping, better/unique sequencing etc.

- Relation with the original: --/10

Despite all differences, how well the remix holds on and slutes the original feel/emotion/vibe etc. Content connection to be taken into account as well.

- Overall mix: --/10

All concerns regarding a remix being over repetitious and/or lacking in appeal go here. If a remix is unappealing, this parameter gets lower values. However, since the appeal on any song is subjective, do not be biased by a "first impression". In case you find a mix to be very appealing, you are encouraged to give a good score. If not, in specific cases, it is suggested to borrow a helping hand from logic and try and work out a decent score depending upon the new genre.

Ofcourse, most importantly, the structure of the remix counts.

- Optional parameter(s) to be mentioned by the judge(s): --/10 (each parameter)

Judge(s) are advised to limit this optional parameter to 1 as it lowers any chances of confusion later on. If you feel inclined to add more, no one is stopping you but owing to a common perspective, 1 added parameter should be enough as the most important ones have already been mentioned.

DO NOT use fractional scores using this system. It was made to eliminate such ambiguities. Use full integral scores only.

HIICHIIIWAAAA-WAAAAAA... that page is coo!


I can tell anyone considering entering this one that the source material is excellently presented. I got the enjoyment of doing a remix of this earlier and it really is flexible to a wide variety of ideas and formats.

I highly recommend taking a stab. I will spatter news of this across my weinny lil network of virtual pseudo-friends throughout the week :D
hehe

SPREAD THE WORD PPLZ!


Speaking of which... are we allowed to link to that banner in the announcement for promotional purposes?

PS: Guess who one of the judges is. WRONG! Not Krusty! ME! :D

Nope... Leave it here... With the way people reply to contest announcement posts, this page will be "archived" very soon and we'll be reading on like the 10th page where there won't be any banners anyway. :p

If you heard my track then you should also check this remix;

http://www.acidplanet.com/artist.asp?PID=963530&t=2254

Kiddk8 made this last year after my request.He was very kind to
accept my invitation and i was very lucky to have his remix.

BTW,Kim and PhoeniX will be the other 2 judges.
I strongly believe they're great judges,straight to the point and fair.
Plus,as you already figured out,my english isn't great so i'm kind of
reliefed to have these guys on my side.
