For all of you budding home-studio recording saxophonists out there we are proud to be partnering with Cloudvocal Microphones in a SAX JAM contest. All you need to do is download the official backing track, record a knock-out solo and upload it to YouTube with the tag #2022cloudvocalsaxjam.
We are proud to be included in the judging panel, alongside Nigel McGill of Sax School Online and Cloudvocal themselves.
1. Download the Official backing track here
DO NOT rearrange the official track nor change its key, tempo, etc.
2. Record a video of your improvisation with the Official backing and upload it to YouTube with the tag #2022cloudvocalsaxjam (Entries uploaded to Instagram and Facebook WILL NOT be recognized as eligible entry, however feel free to share your video on your social media after uploading to your youtube channel.)
3. ONLY ONE entry per person. Please set camera angle properly to show it's actually you playing a real saxophone.
4. ALL entries MUST BE PLAYED on real saxophones (digital saxophones are ok as long as it consists a reed and a mouthpiece). It is OK to use effects while recording, but please don't overdub since it's an improvisation.
5. Crews at Cloudvocal will narrow the eligible entries down. Next we will share the information with our panel of judges and vote for the winners. Besides the top three, there will be special awards announced by the panel of judges.
