Blockchain Music Contest Round 3 - A DSound Community Initiative

10 Days To Enter And Earn Points!

Time to shake things up a bit, and throw a new music contest into the mix for the New SMA! So welcome one and all to the Blockchain Music Contest! This will be a multi-platform contest, so if you are on Steemit, Whaleshares, WeKu it's all good.

For the 3rd round the theme will be "Spirituality" :-) You can produce your song in any genre, whether it be Rap, DnB, Ambient... what ever does it for you, works for us.

You can use these videos for inspiration, to get your creative flow going:

Posting Your Entries

The preferred method for uploading your song is DSound, the decentralized sound platform harnessing the power of the STEEM blockchain. Dsound and @prc is a big supporter of SMA and music contests on the Blockchain, and is an official sponsor of this contest.

When you are making your post about your song, might be a very good idea to let us all know the story behind it, including what DAW you use, plus plugins, and what ever else you do to make the magic happen... just sayin... hint hint! Be sure to include the tag: blockchainmusic on Steemit, Whaleshares and WeKu and etc.

And whatever blogging platform you decide to go with, once you get it all together, make sure that you drop a link in the contest room in the SMA Discord Server, which you can find right here! Look for blockchain-music-contest in contest land, and hit us with that 411!

And seeing as how there is a 7 day period for song uploads, it is also suggested that use a backup for the judges to hear your song. Feel free to use Choon, SoundCloud or any platform as a back up source. If we cannot hear your song, we can't give you points!
