4. You cannot use "break", "breaks", "butter", "buttered", "pop", "corn", or "popcorn" in your track title, as it is the album name.

5. Your song must include break samples.

6. You are not allowed to use the amen break.

7. Please render your file properly. It should be a downloadable 16 bit 44.1Khz wav file.

8. Submit your final track mixed and mastered below!

Recommendations:

Use breaks creatively in the structure of your song. Think outside the box; the more creative your use of a break sample is while still sounding good, the more chances you have of your song being selected in the final rendition.

Collabs are good ways to make new friends and make cool sounds. Visit our discord to chat with other artists!

Full Disclosure:
Members of WRC will be participating in the competition, as well as judging the tracks submitted. Our goal is to include as many tracks as possible, so we will probably not turn away a track unless it does not follow the rules or fit the criteria for the album. All proceeds made on this album go to the record label and are put towards promotion of the album and other releases.
