You Make a Super Badass Remix Contest

Over the last couple months, there have been over 70 remixes of State Shirt songs that have been made by people all over the world, and it’s been really cool to hear everyone’s take on the music. Since it’s been going so well, I figured hey why not have another remix contest? Well here it is.

Create a tasty remix of a State Shirt song between January 19 and February 26 and enter to win Propellerhead Reason 4 music production software, State Shirt t-shirt and other yet-to-be-announced goodies. Source files for my songs are available here. All you need to do is:

1. Create a super badass remix of one of my songs (or several remixes, there is no limit).

2. Submit the remix by emailing me with an MP3 attachment or link to the MP3.

Me and my team of remix experts will pick the most super-est fantastic remix of the month. And give you the prize. Contest rules are here. Bonus points go to people who also upload their remix to ccMixter.org!

Thanks!

No remixing. Rare interview with David Lee Roth by Steven Colbert.

Ok. I’ll admit, I was a little bit bored this evening. Steven’s interview with creative commons czar Lawrence Lessig inspired me to do a bit of remixing on my own. Although this particular remix may not technically be legal depending on how you look at it. Originals are here and here.
