Remix Contest: Win gear stuff

Post Author:

Who wants to remix that curly-headed Matthew Dear? Who wants to remix him real good?

You got to remix that Detroit Techno artist Matthew Dear real good, or rather his alter-ego Audion, and you got to remix him real fast to win the prizes Beatportal.com has on offer for this contest:

  • Native Instruments Traktor Scratch
  • $100 Beatport gift card
  • A gift bag full of “Beatport goods”

Contestants can download two separate bundles of samples from the Audion track “Billy Says Go” from the 12″ released this year of the same name on Ghostly International imprint Spectral for free, or download a “Deluxe Bundle” including all the components and the whole song for $3.99

Audion, “Billy Says Go”

What's that? You worship Satan? No Techno?

Well, I don't want to be the McCain supporter who says you can't do both, but if that's the way you feel, the contest invites all comers to “…remix the track into whatever genre they like.” This is still America, after all. D.i.y. your way to becoming the next Otto Von Schirach. Make that Tapeworm album NIN never did. Please.

The contest opened on September 9. Contestants have until September 16 to upload their remixes to Beatportal.
