So today I received this notification that I made it to the next phase of the NGUAC 2017 competition.

I'm happy I made it, since I just participated without really thinking about it, but I'm curious about what is getting high marks on the competition.

The one thing I can take from the highest ranked songs on my group is that they were very well produced, with very clean sound, and either using real instruments or vocal samples, and a LOT of high quality effects, which makes me a little uncertain about my chances on this competition.

My only real strong point is composition and structure. I don't have fancy effects, nor the means or skill to record real instruments. Even thou I have improved a lot in the mixing and mastering department, I still struggle a lot in that department, and takes me a lot to get any kind of decent sound.

But either way, I will give my best and try to make a cool song for the next round.

I will be broadcasting live my working sessions, so if you want to watch them, follow me in my YouTube channel.
