$1,000 CASH AWARDED EVERY MONTH

In addition to $1,000 cash, Stereofame offers the unique opportunity to get objective, written music reviews by serious fans of music. Watch our screencast that shows how the music review system works.

All artists that enter Round 1 of the contest are judged by Stereofame members that are presented with a music review form to complete. Following the model that expert reviewers use everyday in the industry, members will be required to listen to an entire track before submitting a critique and will grade the song on a predetermined set of attributes. Each review will display a score once it has been submitted based on the marks given for each attribute. The top 10 scoring artists will be forwarded to our expert Judges Panel where the winner will be selected.

Contest finalists will be reviewed by an impressive group of judges from a variety of backgrounds in the music industry. Judges will critique the finalists using the same review process used in Round 1 and the artist with the highest score wins.

The Stereofame Artist of the Month contest submissions are judged on the basis of:

Music
Creativity
Originality
Melody
Lyrics (where applicable)
Musicianship
Arrangement
Production
Marketability
Lead Vocal (where applicable)

In addition to the cash prize, winners will benefit from promotional campaigns that will give international exposure and attention to the winning artist.

The winning artist from each month will also qualify for the Stereofame Artist of the Year contest with a prize package of $5,000 and exposure to a larger judges panel.
