Music Contest is an annual competition. It is similar to a demo-party music compo, but is held on the Internet. Entries are collected online at our archive (The Hornet Archive).

There are three entry divisions in Music Contest 6: rookie, intermediate, and veteran. These different divisions exist so that musicians of any skill level can compete.

Entries are judged by the public. Anyone can register to vote. Songs are judged in five different categories: originality, form, technique, sample quality, and overall appeal. Scores for "overall appeal" count three times as much as other categories.

There is also an "MC6 Updates" newsletter available to keep you updated and informed about the contest. Click here for subscription information.
Music Contest 6 is organized by Christopher G. Mann (Snowman) of Hornet, Brett Neely (GD), and Jeremy Rice (JRice).
