ANNOUNCEMENTS The August Edition of the HSS Song Contest is over with Mark George coming out on top as the winner. Although it was incredibly hard to choose a winner, Mark’s song,  “The Other Side of Sound” was picked due to its arrangement, it’s clarity and balance, as well as the interest it generated even as an instrumental piece. You can hear the song and listen to my comments on it here: (https://youtu.be/AN9DeEWihcw?t=3988)   The September Edition of the HSS Song Contest is on!    Here are the guidelines for the contest. Original non-copyrighted work  No lewd lyrics or vulgarity  One submission per entrant  File submission in WAV or MP3  Deadline September 25th  Upload your songs here: http://bit.ly/September-Submission   Why would you want to upload your song?         The main purpose I started the song contest was to inspire musicians to release more music and to generate interest in others music, while providing insight and constructive dialogue from a professional standpoint on how to improve the song submitted.      Now, a few months into the HSS Song Contest routine, this segment of the channel has taken on a life of its own!
