Without further adieu the theme of Round #3 of Season Two is:

The Drop

That moment in the beat when the whole mood changes and you can feel the energy reaching a climax.

The drop. The change-up. the switch-up.

That major shift in the track that drives that emotion and gets the energy level going.

The Drop is well-known in EDM and techno music but can apply to any genre.

Remember the entries are judged on:

• Sound Quality: does the sound crispy, in speakers and headphones, is there cracking or recording errors? How loud can we play it before you notice quality issues? etc

• Technicality: what are the skills you displayed in making this beat? The technical aspects of the your craft. The layers and sounds do they match? How many? etc

• Creativity: how unique your entry is. How well it revolves around the universal theme? O we have never heard that sound before? And the amount of work you put into your post and entry.

Also, sharing the story about the creation of your art in your Steemit post helps the judging panel and community gain perspective and knowledge on yourself and the message you are sharing.

The prize pool is as follows:

FIRST PLACE WINNER: 42 SMOKE+ 8 STEEM for a total of 50 Points

SECOND PLACE WINNER: 36 SMOKE + 4 STEEM for a total of 40 Points

THIRD PLACE WINNER: 31 SMOKE + 2 STEEM for a total of 33 Points

FOURTH PLACE WINNER: 26 SMOKE + 1 STEEM for a total of 27 Points

CROWD FAVORITE: 20 SMOKE for a total of 20 Points

The crowd favorite can be awarded to any Steemian with any entry this week. So the first place winner could win additional rewards or it could be another Steemian. All depends on you the Steemit community :)
