Q&A:
Q: What's the prize for winning?
A: There is no prize, "It's not a contest", this compilation album is to help discover new artists in the fandom in a much more organized way of creating a compilation album of new songs/remixes
Q: Why does it have to be in lossless format?
A: Because it'll help a lot in sorting the submissions when I'm going to compile the album, I'll be able to create an MP3 album from it aswell as other lossless formats such as WAV and FLAC, the sky's the limit!
Q: Does covering the song means just singing it or completely remaking it?
A: Either way is fine :)
Q: Would a lyrical extension count as a remix?
A: Yup, that works too
Q: About BPM - Does it have to fit to one of those BPMs (104, 110 or 111)?
A: You don't have to, if you're able to scratch the vocals to the type of song/remix you're working on, then it shouldn't pose as a problem.
Q: Does the length of the remix count towards if the remix will be accepted of not?
A: Length doesn't necessarily matter, but obviously it doesn't need to be too short, otherwise people will go like "...that's it?!"
Q: So EVERYONE can upload a remix/song for a compilation?
A: Yes
Q: Will intentionally bad songs be allowed in?
A: If they are actually funny, then I'll accept them, if they are JUST bad, I'll reject them
Q: Does the art have to be digital?
A: It doesn't have to be digital, you can make traditional art aswell
Q: What do you mean by 700x700+ box case cover?
A: It means that it should fit into a box art, much like how you buy album cds and it arrives in a box shaped cover art
Q: How do I make it a lossless PNG format?
A: Either use a program to convert your art to lossless PNG or google a third party site to do it for you
Q: Can the characters be humanized?
A: They can be :) that's completely acceptable
Q: Are you submitting your own as well?
A: I might ;)
