June of 2007 marked the the 5 year anniversary for Markleford's continuous contributions to the KVR Music Contest.
So...Your task for this month is to create a musical piece that pays tribute to Markleford and this feat.You may use any device available to you, and you may use any genere. Cover's will also be acceptable. If you wish to do a cover of a Markleford tune, please refer to link below.

(Markleford's note: If you want original materials from one of my tracks, feel free to contact me by Private Message.)
Wait....there's more!
Markleford can't pay tribute to himself....so...his task this month is to create a musical piece that says "Thanks" to all of those that will be paying homage to him.
Good Luck
Submissions MUST follow these rules:

2 - 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! A blatant over time will result in DQ.
3 - Your composition should be made specifically for this contest.
4 - The FILE to be named in a format of "yearmonth_artistname_tracktitle"(ie "0707_artistname_tracktitle.mp3"), where the artistname is the same as your KVR name.
