TRACK 5
CONTEST: Samplephonics Design A Genre (2013)
CONTEXT: Submit any songs of your creation that you believe is a new genre or at least a combination of existing genres that results in a new sub-genre or 'hybrid'.
(Allegedly) fun fact: I also created and submitted the song 'Brood Metal' for this contest which I later used for my album Hooligans.
PRIZE: My memory's hazy but I think it was some sample packs and over $1000 worth of audio equipment (midi controllers, studio monitors, plus producer software...things like that).
OUTCOME: Loser.

TRACK 6
CONTEST: Spitfire Audio Drum Off Competition (2015)
CONTEXT: Create a song only using samples from Spitfire Audio's free LABS drum sample library (Ollie Waton Drums). Song had to be 2 minutes or less.
PRIZE: Over $2000 worth of sample libraries from Spitfire Audio (including their drum library they were promoting – The Grange).
OUTCOME: 1st place winner

TRACK 7
CONTEST: Impact Soundworks Shreddage Songwriting Competition (2016)
CONTEXT: Create a song using any of Impact Soundworks' sample libraries from their Shreddage series.
PRIZE: One of Impact Soundworks' sample libraries from their Shreddage series that they were promoting at the time.
OUTCOME: Loser.

TRACK 8
CONTEST: Rob Scallon's 'DJENT IS DEAD' Contest (2018)
CONTEXT: Use both of YouTuber Rob Scallon's goofy riffs in a song. The only rule was that at some point, both riffs are used at least once and are recognizable.

TRACK 9
CONTEST: Metapop/Native Instruments Lazer Dice Competition (2018)
CONTEXT: Create a song that uses any of the selected samples from Native Instruments' expansion pack - Lazer Dice. I created the song using strictly those selected samples.
PRIZE: I think 1st prize was Komplete 11 (boatload of sample libraries and plugins) and an A-Series keyboard/midi controller. I don't remember.
OUTCOME: Loser (probably. I don't know. I didn't get an email and I didn't bother to check on the status after I submitted it).

TRACK 10
CONTEST: Westworld Competition hosted by Spitfire Audio (2020).
CONTEXT: Compose/produce original music to a chase scene from the TV show Westworld. What you're listening here is only the music and I made painstaking efforts for the rhythm to match a lot of the movement on screen.
PRIZES: Winner gets the Spitfire Everything drive (roughly $20,000 worth of sample libraries). 5 Runners Up get Spitfire Symphony Orchestra. Winners and Runners Up get a signed Westworld vinyl.
OUTCOME: Loser
