Basically we're looking for a track that's made up of elements from different genre's. We're going to use the winning track as a theme for the rest of the games, so we want something that covers a lot of ground. We're planning on giving away one of the big prizes on this one.

Man, that's a lot of prizes. Can't resist that.
How many people win prizes then ?
is there a top 20 or does all the prizes go to no.1?

Good question. Smart, how will the prizes be determined - for instances what if one wins a prize that they already have, or one that doesn't work with their host?
Not that I plan on winning any.

Hey,

We want as many people as possible to win stuff so we're going to spread the prizes out a lot! The goal is make a lot of people happy

As far as winning stuff that you already have - I'm sure if that happens we can work something out

HERE I find this:

The Inaugural Track – To start off on a humorous note, musicians will initially be required to make a spoof remix of the quintessential sports-related soundtrack “Eye of the Tiger”. Entries will be judged based on originality and humor.

And HERE I find this:

The 2004 Summer Electronic Music Games are upon us. Let’s begin by calling to the community to enter our "Inaugural Track" competition. This track will define the theme of the games and be the background music for everything that’s going to happen this summer.

With this in mind .. our winner will be chosen by the following criteria:

The track must include a progression and a chorus
The track must be over 4 minutes long
The track must represent electronic music as a whole family of genres
The track must not contain any samples or lyrics under copyright
The track must be uploaded as an mp3 at 192kbps
The track source must be made available upon request

So, which one is it?
