Trax Mixdown: Rock On edition!
It’s time to crank up that Trax Machine, dust off your virtual mic, and BRING THE NOISE, Habbos of Habbo Hotel: Origins!!
Whether you’re duck funking in the Welcome Lounge or jiggling about in one of your many storage rooms, we want you to turn your favourite part of Origins into a musical masterpiece.
Details below ⬇️
🎤 The competition brief and rules
Craft a killer Trax tune using a Trax Machine AND drop some original lyrics that shout out your favourite thing, or part of, Habbo Hotel: Origins!
Be it your pixelated pet, your furni stash, or just chilling with your crew fishing in the new deck. You can go for a heavy rock tune or a rock-style romantic ballad. It’s totally up to you!
The rules:
- Compose the song using the Trax Machine and then record yourself singing over it.
- You can use any Trax CDs to compose the song, you do not have to use Rock Trax.
- The use of AI services in this competition is allowed, including to write and sing the lyrics.
- Please DO NOT use lyrics from existing songs.
- Your Trax song can be a maximum of 30 seconds long.
🧑⚖️ Judging
We’ll be judging entries on:
- How smart, clever, and funny your lyrics are. The Hotel is FULL of inspiration. Misguided teleports. Curious looking ducks. Unexplainable piles of vending machines. You’ve got material for days. Channel that chaos into your song, and hey – if it makes us laugh so hard we choke on our pixel soda? That’s bonus points, baby. Be weird. Be Clever. Be loud.
- Inclusion of Habbo lore, or references. This is, after all, a Habbo Hotel: Origins competition. Your lyrics should be somewhat related to the game.
- Quality of the music production. This includes both your Trax composition skills and the lyrics. The more professional it sounds, the better!
📤 How to submit
You’ll need to use software to record both the Trax song you compose, and yourself singing over it. When you have your music file, you should upload it to a social media platform like X, or a music sharing site like Soundcloud. It’s vitally important that we (Origins Staff) can play your song without needing to create an account or log into a third party site 👍
Put the link and your avatar name in this Google Form between now and 7am Habbo Time on Monday July 14th.
🏆 Prizes:
- 1st Place: Typewriter, Gold Plaque, 500 credits
- 2nd Place: Typewriter, Silver Plaque, 400 credits
- 3rd Place: Typewriter, Bronze Plaque, 300 credits
The top 10 entries will get 200 credits and a Trax Mixdown badge (pictured right, with the plaques).
So plug in, tune up, and absolutely shred. We wanna hear anthems so iconic they make us shut down our laptops and cry tears of joy.
Let’s melt some ears and rock this Hotel like it’s 2005 babbyyyyyy!!
