"IMSTA Song Reviews LIVE” is a monthly online event which provides music creators with the opportunity to submit their music and have it reviewed by our panel of music industry professionals. The panelists will listen to each song and provide constructive feedback to the creator(s). The panel will also provide an overall score for each song and the top song of each episode will receive a prize, which included music software and/or hardware products sponsored by IMSTA member companies. There is a $20 submission fee for each song.

The event is FREE TO ATTEND for everyone. Therefore, even if you do not submit any songs, join in and listen to the songs submitted by others and to the feedback provided by our professional panel. This is a great opportunity to learn and improve your own craft. In addition to this invaluable learning experience, viewers also have a chance to win prizes, which include music software and/or hardware products sponsored by IMSTA member companies.
