The Final Round listening party was great fun; thank you to all who joined.
The songs are live now at Bandcamp: hear them all at https://spintunes.bandcamp.com/album/spintunes-17-round-4 or embedded below!
Our album art is again provided by the generous and talented Matt Schubbe!
You the contestants serve as the judges this round, and you get a taste of the controversy that sometimes comes with judging:
It has been brought to the attention of the judges that not all entrants followed the challenge requirements strictly. The Cavedwellers' song "What You Do" includes 26 words. The word list they provided does not include the word "to", which appears at the end of the second verse and is spelled and pronounced differently from the word "two" which precedes it.
Since the judges did not catch this violation before the songs were made public at the listening party, we will not be disqualifying the song. As you contestants are the judges this round, it is your prerogative as individuals to decide how strictly you weigh each song's adherence to the challenge.
Upcoming schedule:
- Now: Judging commences
- Saturday May 1:
- Noon Eastern - Contestants' rankings and judges reviews are due.
- 4:00 pm Eastern - Results posted and winner announced!
