Just 3 weeks left to submit something for this! I've got a couple of things done for it myself, looking forward to seeing what everybody else has up their sleeves. ^_^

We've also got another chat purely for feedback and theory/technique discussion as some people weren't so happy with a lot of general discussion stuff getting in the way of feedback being given as easily, so feel free to let me know if you wanted to be added to that, will definitely have more focussed and concentrated discussion environment.

Alrighty, we have an official release date that we're working towards, things like mastering need to happen so it's more than a couple of days after submissions close, but hopefully it will allow us to bring out the best product we can based on all your awesome submission! Release date is now slated down as August 15th, so get hyped!

Only 10 days left to submit tracks! ^_^

We're accepting late entries for a couple of days so people can finish things off, but we'll start the judging process on the already submitted tracks and leave the late ones until last. Got a bit of stuff to organise before release too, so you'll have to wait until August 15th for that. ;P

We're undecided about whether to do CDs this time as it would probably require one of us to invest our own money into it, and then stand behind a booth all weekend at PonyCon. Last time we only just sold enough copies to make back the money for the CDs, which is perfectly fine, it just means there's less of an incentive to do it again, so we need to work that out after the digital release. :P

Hi guys,

We've finished the judging and practically finalised the songs to be on the album.
Here is a list of the songs that will be on the album: http://i.gyazo.com/34ec1618628879898491091234dae6b3.png
And here is a link to the judging results: http://goo.gl/ONbYse

Congratulations to everybody who made it, and to those who didn't, we didn't recieve any flat-out awful entries, and we couldn't accept everything, so just keep trying to improve and you might make it next time! ^_^
For those who made it, please get in contact with us either via email or probably easier via Skype (add me at alexander.ashenden) if you'd like me to organise your song getting a video made for it by Steffy O. using the template he's created for us. Examples of his work can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/user/SteffyO1992/videos

We'll be releasing on August 15th, so for those who want videos done for them they'll be available sometime around then. For those releasing without a video from Steffy, please make sure not to release your track earlier than the 15th, and make sure to leave a link to the album in your description when it does come out. :) We're doing our best to get everything organised before then, so that the release can go as smoothly as we want it to.

Glad to hear you see where we were coming from. I imagine it wasn't awful, just possibly not the kind of thing we were looking for in the end. Glad you appreciated the opportunity. ^_^

Mastering is all done and Steffy's at work on the videos so we're motoring towards the release date very smoothly! Just over a week to go before we drop the album~ ^_^
