For months, the city of Beaumont-sur-Mer in Lourenne, a tourist hotspot and major billionaire hangout, has been preparing for
the seventh edition of the Festival of Musical Arts in Terra, more commonly known as FOMAT worldwide. Artists, bands, and
individuals from all over Terra have eagerly waited to perform in this event in hopes to be named the next World Music Winner
of the Year and have the chance to host the next edition of FOMAT in their home country. This year, ten contestants are in line
to participate in the festival in Lourenne. Thousands of fans, tourists, and residents have packed Beaumont's performance
locations. Thousands are eager to see this year's FOMAT contestants and their shows. An anonymous 7 person judging panel has
been chosen to judge and choose this year's winner. After several emotional, joyous, exciteful, and intense performances by
the contestants, the judges have formalized this year's final standings and the winner of FOMAT VII!


For the number ten spot, we have "The Buaks" by Ragobi Rishu from Vascania. While the audience loved the song's urban and
upbeat vibe, the judges concluded that the sound and felling of the music was not enough to make it into a winning spot.



In ninth place we have Hugamest Love by Farkas Brigi from Endralon. The song sit well with the audience, but not so much
with the public. The song was smooth, lovely, and explained to us the wonders of the Endralonian capital. The judges did
not enjoy the lyrics and believed the song was too much about Endralon, however, the music and feel of the song saved it
from the last spot.



In eighth place, we have "When we're together" by Viktorija Keblyte from Dolgava. The song was electrifying and had the
crowds moving. The song had several solid moments and was enjoyed. The judges however thought the song did not connect
well with the audience and that the likes of the song we're about its instrumental pieces rather than its meaning.Yet, it was
a great song that gave life to Beaumont momentarily.



In seventh place, we have "Duce Me" by Vel Amatius from Selucia. The song was interesting and overall had an average
standing with the judges. The audience however immediately recognized from the movie The Lion Republic and began to
sing along with Vel Amatius. It was a great performance, however the judges noticed it fell behind other performances in
regards to audience reaction.



In sixth place we have "'Moladh An Bhoinéid Mhór" by Luchra Ní Flaitile from Kirlawa. Both the judges and the audience at
first thought this song was peculiar. However, it was well enjoyed by everyone. Compared to other songs, this song appeared
to stick will the audience and the judges. It was a more traditional folk-ish type of song that sat well with everyone. While
it did not appeal to some at the festival, it was able to reach a decent position among other songs. Smooth and Refrshing.



In fifth place we have "Ng'ambo" by Wasafiri from Liore. This song connected well with the audience and had many feeling
emotional. The judges were impressed with the meaning of the song and the song's lyrics. The music and instrumental pieces
were also enjoyed by thousands. The song which was melancholy, calming, and traditional captivated many. It sat well with
the judges more than the audience.



In fourth place we have "If the heavens ever did speak" by Cazzy from Lodamun. The song immediately caught the heart's of
the judges and the audience. The song inspired by LGBTQ+ themes and a deep, and touching vibe of music made it a favorite
at the festival. The song was tied with the third place selection and a tie breaker was casted by a secondary judge at the event.
Overall, it was a touching and moving song.



In third place, we have "Brtse Ba" by PNT from Utembo. The song was great both in the meaning of the song and the instrumental
piece, which the audience enjoyed. The song, according to the judges, was "groovy" and made a sad topic all about life, music
and enjoying special moments. The great song by PNT was well received and showed the beauty of the emotions seen at FOMAT.



in second place, we have "I am King", by We Rock from Yingdala. The crowd was wild during this performance. We Rock was
able to bring life to FOMAT after a few emotional performances. The song made the crowds roar and jerk their bodies to the
music. It was a magnificent performance by We Rock, whose performance and music by several individuals pushed it to the
number two spot.



In first place and the Winner of the Seventh Edition of FOMAT, is "Lost" by Mirat from Deltaria. This song was described by the
judges as the most emotional of the night, with a special significance. The performance by Mirat was excellent and caught the
eyes of thousands including the judges. The music was deep, emotional, and was an example of "life through darkness. Not
only does it show the conflict within oneself, but it exposes just how difficult the music industry can be. This understanding
along with the emotions and lyrics from the song set up Mirat with the number one spot.


That concludes the seventh edition of the Festival of Musical Arts in Terra. Thousands of people enjoyed all of the performances
and in a festival dominated by emotions and wonderful songs, many have concluded that this was a well balanced festival. As
soon as the festival ended, people already began to look forward to the next FOMAT to see what Terran artists could bring to
share with the world. FOMAT is returning home to Deltaria for FOMAT VIII. We thank you all for your time and we'll see you in
Deltaria. Good Night!
