The Special Melody Contest (often shortened to SMC or Special Melody ) is a competition of thematic seasons with special conditions for applications.
Origins and history
The Special Melody was conceived and implemented in order to diversify song competitions by adding various requirements and rules to them, making the selection of applications more difficult, however, the conditions of the competition change every quarter and have its own special theme (in each episode of the competition).
