The contest is flawed...

Seriously man,
everybody can register twice and download the packs with a fake account to have more time... (2 weeks ? Oo).

It was a very good idea still...

The top 25 entrants will be asked to hand in their Live Sets, so we can take a look under the hood and judge techniques.
Maybe that means they'll be decompiling your set to see if it was really made in 24 hours? 8O dunno...

They probably installed a hightech spy-bug in the 8.3 version..

I don't think that there is any form of timestamp inside the live sets... And even if there is one... Well just decompress the .als with gzip and edit it by handc ^____^

Okay naysayers...

yeah yeah yeah all hype and promotion for ableton and soundcloud ... for people who already use ableton and soundcloud.

Choir -- PREACHED!

But I gotta say, there's some good shit in there! Worth taking a bit of time and checking out a few tracks!

I also have to say it's a bit weak how some leading contenders are "buying" votes with promises of "gigs in Europe" and free downloads.

I'm definitely going to make an entry... and definitely don't expect to win...largely because I don't have a 5 digit friend count on facebook. But again, there is some interesting music coming out in this contest!
