OFFICIAL RULES OF THE CAMPAIGN AND PRIZE DRAW
These official rules govern the Harmony Tracks 2024 campaign and prize draw. By submitting a Harmony Track and entering the Prize Draw, the entrant agrees to be bound by these official rules. Genelec reserves the right to reject and exclude participants from the campaign and prize draw if the official rules and conditions are not fully respected.

1. Organiser of the campaign and prize draw

The campaign and prize draw are organised by Genelec Oy, Olvitie 5, 74100 Iisalmi, Finland (“Genelec”), tel. +358 17 83 881.

2. Campaign Period

Entrants can participate in the campaign during the Campaign Period, which starts on Wednesday, February 14th, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. and ends on Tuesday, December 31st, 2024, at 11:59 p.m., GMT+2. Any entries received before or after the Campaign Period will not be accepted into the prize draw.

3. Who can participate

Entrants must be 18 years of age or older at the time of entry into the campaign and subsequent prize draw. Employees of Genelec or its affiliates or partners or agents and members of their immediate families are not eligible to participate. Genelec reserves the right to verify the eligibility of the entrants. No purchase is required to enter the campaign and subsequent prize draw. Additionally, a purchase will not increase the entrant's chance of winning.

4. How to participate

Eligible entrants are required to comply with and be aware of the following rules, which are agreed and accepted by the act of participation:
• Your Harmony Track is composed using a scale or chord progression rooted in the note G.
• Your Harmony Track is at least thirty seconds and no more than three minutes in length.
• The spirit of Harmony Tracks is to create an entirely new musical work, therefore, Genelec reserves the right to deem a Harmony Track ineligible for our Prize Draw if the Harmony Track is proven to be a pre-existing or previously released work that has been created for another purpose.
• Entrants may create multiple entries for Harmony Tracks. Each entry must be a unique piece of music. Entering the same piece of music more than once is not allowed. Re-entering music that has been submitted for a previous Harmony Tracks campaign year is also not allowed. Each valid/rules-compliant entry counts as a single chance of winning the Prize Draw, meaning the creation of multiple valid entries provides the Entrant with multiple chances of winning. In the case of an Entrant submitting several extremely similar musical works, Genelec reserves the right to discount the extra entries.
• Your Harmony Track must not infringe upon the copyright of any third party. As the entrant, you confirm that you own the full rights or have complete and unlimited usage permission for any copyrighted material used in your Harmony Track.
• Your Harmony Track and any accompanying video, photo or text content does not contain or promote any violent, erotic, dangerous or extreme behaviour, tobacco or alcohol or other activities with negative impacts on health or the environment. Nor may it contain or promote anything in relation to gambling or betting, discriminating behaviour, or the spreading of discriminating messages of any kind.
• Your Harmony Track is rendered as part of a video file including Genelec's downloadable Harmony Tracks animation at the beginning and is uploaded to your YouTube channel, with 'Visibility' set to 'Public'. As an alternative to uploading to YouTube, your Harmony Track may be uploaded to Soundcloud and must then use Genelec's Harmony Tracks artwork and have 'Privacy' set to 'Public'.
• On YouTube, the description field of your Harmony Track must include your interview answers and the hashtags #GenelecHarmonyTracks and #GenelecHT24. If uploading to Soundcloud, the description field of your Harmony Track must include your interview answers and the hashtags #GenelecHarmonyTracks and #GenelecHT24 must be added to the 'Additional tags' field. On both YouTube and Soundcloud, your interview answers must match the questions included in our downloadable ‘Harmony Pack’.
• Your Harmony Track must be submitted to the campaign and prize draw by successfully completing the submission form on Genelec's official Harmony Tracks web page – including your correctly written Harmony Track YouTube or Soundcloud link, email and geographic location.
• Your Harmony Track is only eligible for our prize draw if you have followed the above rules and successfully submitted your Harmony Track via the submission form on our website.
• Genelec does not claim any ownership of, or rights to, your Harmony Track beyond the points stated below.
• Genelec reserves the right to use the music you submit to the Harmony Tracks campaign for marketing purposes on our website, social media channels and any other digital platforms, excluding monetised streaming platforms such as Spotify, Tidal and Deezer. You agree to whitelist your Harmony Tracks music for Genelec to enable such non-monetised usage, where applicable.
• Genelec will not directly monetise any music submitted to the Harmony Tracks campaign through commercial streaming, physical publishing or any other source of royalty collection or streaming revenue.
• In the eventuality that Genelec would like to explore other uses of your Harmony Track, Genelec reserves the right to approach you for negotiation.

5. The Prize Draw and Prize

The one (1) Grand Prize winner and two (2) runner-up prize winners will be randomly drawn by Genelec on Wednesday 15th January 2025 from among all eligible entries.

If the prize winner cannot or will not accept the prize, or the winner is not reached with the email, the original winner will forfeit the prize and a redraw shall be conducted immediately and the new winner will be notified via email on the day the redraw has been finalised.

Prize

The Grand Prize is a pair of RAW 8330A monitors and a GLM Kit packed in a Peli Case. The two identical runner-up prizes are offered. These are the recipient's choice of either a pair of 8010A monitors or a pair of G One loudspeakers.

Grand Prize winner becoming a Harmony Tracks Ambassador

Genelec may offer the Grand Prize winner the opportunity to feature as a Harmony Tracks Ambassador in future editions of Harmony Tracks. Genelec reserves the right to not pursue or not complete this kind of offer and, if the Grand Prize Winner requests the opportunity to be a Harmony Tracks Ambassador, Genelec reserves the right to deny that request. The Grand Prize Winner also reserves the right to refuse the place of Harmony Tracks Ambassador, should it be offered to them.
