Over 100 artists initially registered and in the third round, 20 of them were battling for just four spots in our final Showdown! In this blog post, I'll tell you all about the results.
The Challenge
Once again, the artists had an objective. This time, they had to produce an remix of either Jack Blom's "Paradise", or NetroAki and Adam Hayder's "The Calling".
The artists that have been participating in the challenge, have been given both sample packs privately and tasked with producing the best remix within the next few weeks.
The Voting Sequence
In Round 3, we did Judging a little differently. Instead of just simply ranking a track from 0 to 20 points, they were instead tasked with providing their exact Top 12. The first placed artist would be granted 18 points, the 2nd placed receives 15 points, 3rd 12 and so on, all the way down to 12th place, receiving just one point.
For the first time, the artists competing in the competition were also able to vote aswell! MONOLYTH had an poll on their website, where each point would directly influence a fictional 7th judge, who ended up distributing points aswell on behalf of the Audience.
The Results
Punker (104 Points), Neurolink (85 Points), Echomorphosis (58 Points) and TurboDrive (56 Points) placed in the Top 4 and advance to the final Showdown!
The board continues with an very close mid-field: Kavaas sits on 5th with 41 points, directly followed by Kucklow with 39 points, Righten with 38 points and an third-way tie for 8th by ax1tl, Chromafall and Machine Tulpas at 36 points.
Rounding out the board are Sefaro on 11th with 32 points, Ninety on 12th with 29 points, Arkyalina on 13th with 21 points, and Galaxian on 14th with 14 points. The end of the board concludes with both GRVRX and Senon tying for 15th place at 6 points.
