The submission process for next year's highly anticipated sequel to one of the most successful Fil-Am music compilation albums is over.

Now it's time for the selection process to begin.

The selection committee:

The selection of the final 14 songs that will make the final cut of the album will be handled by nine individuals: Four industry personnel, two from the media, and three music fans.

The committee will employ a percentage system of selection based on the following criteria:

1. Melody - %35
2. Lyrics - % 35
3. Originality:15
4. Performance: %10
5. "IT" factor: %5

The committee will also be voting in a blind system, wherein they will just be given the songs without knowing who the artists are. Likewise, they would not be able to know the votes of their fellow members of the committee.

The final lineup will be released in the week before Christmas, and it will be posted on www.poptimesmagazine.com and www.soulworksrecords.com

The selected artists will have the option to re-record their songs, free of charge, in the label's New Jersey Studio with the label's in house producers. Schedules of sessions will be discussed if artists would make use of this option.

Selected artists will receive a licensing contract from Souwlorks Records, which they will sign, upon reading the provisions. It will be sent back by mail to the label before production.
