Awesome!!

If we're submitting two tracks do we make two separate forms, or do we put both in one form?

Also, another question. I'm planning on entering a piece (Joyous Waves) that has notes that are from a remix of the piece before it was actually finished. I took the notes out of the remixed project and changed/added to them so that they'd go with the style of Joyous Waves, and credited the artist that let me use the notes.
Would this piece be allowed in the BoL v.4, or would it be classified as a remixed project?

Thanks, and sorry for posting two questions at once. :)

So to answer your questions--
First, yes you will need to fill out two forums.

Second, we are discussing regarding your song. We'll get back to you when we come to a decision.

Thank you!! I completely understand if you decide Joyous Waves is considered a remix. :)

Ok, so the general consensus with the judges is that Joyous Waves is going to be considered as a collaboration. It's up to you to decide how you want to notate that in the song description. I would suggest either listing him in your artist info (i.e., Etorna Z & <insert name> - Joyous Waves) or by listing the song as featuring him at some point (i.e., Etorna Z feat. <name> - Joyous Waves OR Etorna Z - Joyous Waves (feat. <name>))

Regardless, the other guy will still need to OK it.

A bit of question regarding the contest,

if I submit 2 tracks, wich one will be qualified, the first one or the second one?

Any replies from the officials will be highly appreciated.
