Official rules for the Instagram contest ‘We produce your next Hit’
  1. THE PROMOTION

Diskover Co. is a digital distribution and playlist promotion company for artists and labels, registered at Calle de Luis I, 86, 28031 Madrid. The contact details available for the contest are the Instagram accounts @diskover.co and @diskover.studios and the email address alejandro@diskover.co .  

To celebrate reaching 10,000 followers on the Instagram account @diskover.co, DISKOVER CO. plans to run a contest on the social network Instagram, which will be carried out in accordance with the following rules.

Taking part in the contest is free and is open to all individuals over 18 who are artists and have a real, active Instagram account. Employees, relatives, representatives, agents or anyone with any kind of connection to the running of the contest or the campaigns to promote it may not take part.

Taking part implies full and absolute acceptance of these rules, and anyone intending to harm or damage the image of the contest or of DISKOVER CO. will be automatically disqualified.

Instagram does not sponsor, endorse or administer this promotion, nor is it associated with it. The user fully releases Meta and is aware that they are providing their information to DISKOVER CO. and not to Instagram. The information provided will be used to manage participation in the contest, announce the prizes and manage the production and distribution of the songs.

2. CONTEST DATES

The contest is aimed at everyone over 18. Participation will open once the Instagram account @diskover.co reaches 10,000 followers and the contest is announced in a post. Entries will be accepted for 2 weeks; once the contest has closed with the closing story, no one else may enter.

3. CONTEST DESCRIPTION

A song demo contest will be held on the social network Instagram. There will be two winners among all the candidates who take part, and the prize will be a studio session with producers Unreleasedx and Kaidez to turn the submitted demo into a professional song. To take part, users must meet the main requirements before sending us the demo of their entry: follow the accounts @diskover.co, @kaidezprod and @unreleasedx, like the contest photo shared on the Instagram profiles @diskover.co and @diskover.studios, comment on it tagging three interested artist friends and, optionally, share the post in their Instagram stories.

Once the above is done, the demo of the song competing in the contest must be sent to alejandro@diskover.co within two weeks of the contest start date. The demo must be unreleased and original. Important: each winner’s song will be distributed by our company. Once the entries have been received and the deadline has closed, a jury made up of members of the DISKOVER CO. team will meet within 15 days to choose the winning song.

The DISKOVER CO. team will contact the winners via Instagram within 10 working days of the prize being awarded, so they can enjoy the service offered, which will expire 3 months after they are notified.

In addition to contacting them directly using the details provided when entering the contest, the winners’ names will be announced on the Instagram profiles @diskover.co and @diskover.studios.

Once the service has been provided, the release dates of the single will be agreed with each artist and the songs will be distributed with DISKOVER CO. in accordance with the company’s policy. Where appropriate, promotion may also be carried out on social media and extra material uploaded, such as the artist’s experience or Behind The Scenes content.
