Ah yes, The 70's I remember them fondly. Lots of great music came out of that era.
The theme for this month will be Prog Rock of the 70's
I think Wikipedia says it best.
Your task this month is to create a comp that sounds like it came from this period.
Good Luck
1 - Submissions MUST follow these rules:
(a) encoded in either .mp3 (128kbps or lower if fixed rate ... average of 128kbps or lower if VBR) or .ogg format (quality level 4.00 or lower)
(b) A STRICT MAXIMUM of TWO MINUTES in length. If it shows up as 2:01 in my player, then I'll allow it for reasons of rounding in different players. But you shouldn't take that chance! Any longer gets a DISQUALIFICATION. That said, if a submitted track is over length, all contestants should feel free to mock the offending entrant mercilessly into getting permission to enter a new version of correct length.
(c) entered into the contest by posting a DIRECT LINK in this RULES & SUBMISSIONS thread (use the GOSSIP thread for everything else). If you cant provide a direct link, please contact one of the following people listed below, they will be happy to help you out.

(d) submitted before 11:59 PM Saturday, March 24th, 2007
2 - Your track SHOULD also ...
(a) be composed specifically for this contest
(b) be created using at least some audio plugins, virtual synths, or software studio
(c) have the FILE named in a format of "yearmonth_artistname_tracktitle"(ie "0703_artistname_tracktitle.mp3"), where the artistname is the same as your KVR name. Please, do not use spaces and special charaters in the filename.
(d) IF you are going to tag your mp3, the artist name is to be the same as your KVR name, and the title tag is to be the name of your tune (help us out, okay? it's easier to sift through labelled entries)
3 - Only one entry per person - no resubmissions without permission from the moderator, INCLUDING for time-overage correction. PM me for permission!
4 - Any tracks not adhering to these guidelines will be very naughty indeed. Possibly disqualified upon peer review. And at least mocked for all to point and giggle.
5 - Voting (members must have at least 20 posts to vote ... although contest entrants are exempt from this ruling) will run from the submission deadline until 11:59 PM Saturday, March 31st - anyone voting for themselves will find ALL their votes disqualified - any entrants not voting will also be disqualified
