How It Works

* Producers must first register and pay the entry fee ($50.00).

* There are 14 spots in the competition.  Once theses spots are filled...we will no longer accept submissions.  If someone was to drop out of the battle, the SBB staff will update the website and allow one more entry (so keep checking for updates). 


Please know that your entry fee is NON REFUNDABLE.  If you drop out, do not show up or if you are not chosen as the winner of the Sample Challenge or the Soundtrack Beat Battle...you will NOT receive your money back!!!  

*Soundtrack Beat Battle Format: Two (2) randomly selected producers will hit the stage and will be given an allotted amount of time to play a clip of each beat (usually 45 seconds to a minute). The battle is set up in brackets and the winner moves on to the next round. We will give a second chance to a producer who lost in the first round. This producer will be chosen by the industry panelists. The winner and runner up from each competition will be invited to the Grand Finale Beat Battle at Limelight in Nashville, TN! At the Soundtrack Beat Battle, the judges panel has the final decision!  Make sure you come with great stage presence and a CD full of your best beats.
