As a direct result of our 2023 event, the lives of many Canadian musicians were changed.

Find their success stories in our inTune Magazine.

The option to choose feedback for Road Ready, Media Print Ready and Grant Ready are all designed to help you gain insights, and knowledge.

RAVE REVIEWS from two of our adjudicators

Music in motion is a powerful resource for nurturing new Canadian talent. It was a real privilege to hear so much creativity, and talent in these up-and-coming writers: it gave me a good feeling about the future of Canadian music. I’m happy to think that some of my experience might have helped a fellow dreamer make theirs come true.
~ THOMAS WADE, 3 X Juno Award Nominee, 7 X CCMA Winner, Songwriter, Producer  
Working with MIMC was an engaging and rewarding experience because the interaction as an adjudicator is parallel to a real-life situation as both a Manager and a Record Producer. You are advising contestants on how to advance with their careers not simply judging them on a scale of 1-10 from your musical perspective. This competition is a constructive experience, not a dismissive one. Thoroughly satisfying as a professional to be able to contribute.   ~ DAN McCONOMY, Producer, Label Owner
