Congratulations to those in the top 10s!

If you didn't make the top 10, It doesn't necessarily mean that you no good or anything like that. It just means that at this point in time, you didn't stand out to the judges as others did this year. There maybe an area where you could improve so you can increase your chances for next year? This is also why we provide the song feedback service. To improve the quality of original music culture in Australia. So keep making great Aussie music and keep improving!

The Top 5 Finalists from all categories will be announced on November 7th and the winners will be announced live at the Enmore Theatre on November 22nd.
