2010 Comp Submissions
Submissions are now closed. Thanks to all the artists who submitted! We received about 675 submissions this year, the most ever. Now the volunteer voting process begins.
A little about this process: This year we have about 70 listener volunteers, split into 7 groups of 10. The submissions are anonymized and each group listens and votes on about 100 submissions each. The top voted tracks from each group go to the board, where the voting process happens again to narrow these tracks down to around 40, or enough to fill our 2 CD compilation.
