Christmas contest

Christmas is finally over!

Thank you for all your submissions! Excuse the delayed announcement. Unfortunately, there were a lot of songs that weren’t made using Soundation or couldn’t be verified so some of the runner-ups were disqualified.

Congratulations to the winners, expect a magic upgrade and a DM.


Winners

1st place

Hyphen was a bit OP in this contest, he’s had his share of features and it’s surprising he’s still squeezing things out on a free account. It’s time bro. Very smooth production and a nice play on the jingle bells melody.

 
2nd place

Hard trap beat with some Xmas elements in it, the mix is a bit off and it could need some more dynamics and switch-ups, but all in all, well played.

 
3rd place

Very well-arranged and full-bodied production. It would have landed second place if it had some Christmas in it. Mix tip: tune your compression wisely, dial it back a little bit and don’t go ham on it all the way through – the end result will sound a lot more professional.

 

 
Thanks Moon for putting this together!

Being a premium user has nothing to do with being popular/good with Soundation. All of my "official" songs (aka ones where I actually tried) were made with free user. If you put enough effort into your songs, eventually you'll get there. But you also have to...like...post around. Because no one's going to notice your sound if you just post a lot.

The next start from scratch challenge is not until October as Kal just stated. I'm assuming that is that start time and not deadline time, so the theme will be given then, and then about a month or 2 to work on the track.

In the meantime, we are motioned over to check out the new remix contest.
