Hey guys (ahem, *bump*) I'm still working on my track up until the 1st July so don't download just yet. I've gutted it and I'm rebuilding it. I always upload my draft to see if I can get some constructive comments and then I use the length as a kind of target for the new track. Although I haven't had MANY!!! It's also a way to make sure I actually have an entry before the deady. I can uplpad an mp3 of the existing version if you want, but it will be different for the final. Is that all " in keeping with the reg's"?

EDIT: I'm going to assume we're all going to comment on each other's songs (using the SoundCloud comment area) during judging, yeah? I know that I for one thrive on constructive feedback, so you're free to have a go at my track/s here. I'm not really interested in winning. I'm just trying to learn and some of you guys are obviously pros. I'd love comments, but can wait patiently...

Yes it's the entry that's there after deadline that will count, but of course u run the risk of people downloading now and not realizing or forgetting the new one and then judging on that.

But uploading is anyway I find a very good test for yourself as the minute I listen to my track online, things come out that I didn't hear before and sometimes the whole track is different so why not use the upload to check urself.

Not exactly, the comments in the Soundcloud webpage are just a matter of freedom. You can do it if you want i mean. But nothing in common with the KVROSC.
I will explain a bit how goes all this:

A new post is created, called Vote for Synth, where we vote for a synth from day 18th-20th until to the last day of that X month. Aproximately.
There will be 10 synths to vote. Or a mandatory one
The synth more voted in those 10-12 days will be the winner for that next, let's call it, Y month.
We close the votes for the synths. (The post keeps opened)

A new post is created, called KVROSC numberXX: Winner Synth So the post of gossip and participants is opened to new entries of that winner synth, you have that whole Y month to inscribe yourself with your track or tracks.
When we reach the end of that Y month, and the deadline day has passed, we close the entries in that post. (The post keeps opened)

A new post is created, called KVROSC numberXX: Voting and results where people goes to vote and comment for the submitted tracks, from day 1st to day 15th of Z month, and the winners will be selected by votes. In this same post you will know who are the final winners. The votes are closed. (The post keeps opened)

And again, a new post is created, called "Vote for Synth", aproximately between day 18th to 20th until the end of that month, etc...
The loop of the life.

So the free comments in SoundCloud goes totally appart.
I hope you could understand it.

Have a good day.

We uploaded a new version of El Hierbajo.

The Soundcloud player sounded so flat we had to add some bass. Please download to have the full sound.

Looking forward to listening to these. I did actually attempt to create an entry myself for the first time, but sadly ran out of time to finish my masterpiece "Sultans of String".
