What is it?
It's our 6th annual (sort of...) Remix Competition! Download the sample pack below and re-rub it into something completely unique. This year, S&M (aka James Sadoway: SKinN) has contributed the source sample pack for their release "Miss You Miss You". Hailing from Vancouver Canada, SKiNN is a producer, remixer and composer and a long-time member of InternetDJ.
The Rules
InternetDJ members have until Midnight Saturday October 17th 2009 (ET) to download the sound pack, remix into a new song and upload it on this page to InternetDJ. After October 17th, the upload function will be closed and shortly thereafter the remixes will be filtered for nonsense and presented within the InternetDJ Voting Booth.
The Voting Process and Prizes
InternetDJ members and visitors are welcome to vote on all the uploaded tracks. The top voted tracks are then delivered to S&M, who will then select the 3 winning tracks. The winner will receive a $100 paypal prize from InternetDJ and possible inclusion in a formal release with the original track (30% mechanical royalty for each track).
Get Going
1: Listen to
'Miss You Miss You'.
2: Download the sample pack for "Miss You Miss You" here (100MB).
3: Finally, upload your finished remix (in MP3 format) to InternetDJ:
The upload form is now closed. But the Voting Booth is Open! Rate all of the submissions now.
4: The competition and uploading arena ends at Midnight October 17, 2009 (ET). The voting process will begin shortly thereafter.
· Samples - We will be looking for clever usage of the samples given. What we don't want is to hear a completly different track that barely uses any of the original samples. Remember you are remixing this track so it needs to somewhat resemble the original.
· Vocals - Are completely compulsory to the remix, we will be looking favourably at tracks that incorporate the original and/or a variation of the original vocal samples.
· Length - Try to keep the track between 3 - 6 minutes.
· Usage - Usage of these samples and of your completed track are for this competition and this competition only. You are not allowed to use the sound samples in your own productions. You are not allowed to license your remix in any way (label, movie, online site etc.) You are not allowed to publish your remix on any sound carrier (CD, vinyl, website, tape etc.) You are not allowed to sell the sound samples of this remix kit. You are not allowed to distribute the sound samples of this remix kit. And finally you are not allowed to publish this remix to the internet anywhere other than this remix submission page on internetdj.com that includes posting it to your artist profile page, such uploads will be rejected.
Have Fun!
