Remix Contest
 

Beastiemixes.com is hosting a remix contest.

Prizes for First, Second, and Third place, (I know the 3rd place prize is kinda weak)

First prize is however an iPod Shuffle.

This ain't gonna be no easy slap it together affair. The song you are mixing is a rough one to say the least. This is a test of your skills, creativity, and probably your patience.

Please read the instructions, follow the rules and play nice.

But most of all HAVE FUN!!!

Head on over to Beastiemixes.com and check the Remix Contest page for details.

Re: Remix Contest
 

I'm sorry guys ;)

For anyone who is, or who is thinking about working on this, I have found a second copy of the same song, sung by the same lady but I think the quality is a little better. I will be posting up that copy as well when I get home. So check back at the site later to download.

If you have a song, if no one else can remix it, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the Beastie-Team.

Re: Remix Contest
 

is there gonna be a poll to vote for the winner?

Re: Remix Contest
 

(No)

Re: Remix Contest
 

First I would like to say THANKS to all who entered, you guys all did an amazing job with a song that a few people around me thought couldn't be remixed. I almost didn't believe it could, you all proved me wrong. Awesome Job!!!

I will be handing out the CD's tomorrow to SIX of my friends who will be rating the mixes on a scale of 1 - 10, 10 being best. Their vote will be final and I will post the full results as soon as I get them back.

They will be judging on what they like, the best mix using the supplied song
"I love my little rooster" and who followed the contest rules. (you all passed the rules part, with only 2 rules it wasn't that hard ;) )

==========================================
Remix THIS SONG with any Beastie Boys song, please try and include as much of the song I provided as you can. All remixes must have the following naming structure: Original Beasties Song Name_Remix Name_DJName.mp3
==========================================


If you are a winner I will be contacting you for a mailing address.

GOOD LUCK to all of you!

congrats to Next, Joakizmo, and all the other contestants as well... fun mixing...

Re: Remix Contest
 

You guys were truely awesome, I don't envy my friends at all for having me harassing them for their papers. Believe me, there's a reason that I didn't want my vote in there, I actually sat down and thought about what scores I would give everybody and it was hard.

I received the last three papers towards the end of the day today and was sitting in Excel putting in the scores when I decided to check the page and saw that you guys were on my ass.

Bobo, yeah, after all the papers were in, we all kinda looked at his scores and said "Whoa!!!" but it was his choice.

Winners, Check your E-Mails

and THANKS AGAIN, it was MUCH FUN!!!

Re: Remix Contest
 

maybe next time, the judges get a set of points..
like 12 points, 10 points, 8 points, 5 points and 3 points for example..
and must give these points out. instead of choosing 1 to 10 for each song.
it would be like melody grand prix.

Re: Remix Contest
 

I had a couple judges who wanted a 1-4 scale, but others argued for the 1-10 scale. I pretty much let them come to an agreement on how they wanted to do it.

I'll be on the lookout for some sort of SureFire way to maybe let you guys vote next time. I just don't know what method I would use that would be totally foolproof.

Example,

This person is an OK remixer and has like 10,000 friends, so he mass e-mails all of them to vote for him. Gets 10,000 votes

This person, is a Brilliant remixer, has a few friends, and e-mails them to vote for him. Gets 50 votes.

Brilliant remixer loses, just because he doesn't know 10,000 people.

Doesn't seem fair in my book. That's why I took the vote offline. Had friends who I knew would be objective and honest, and most importantly didn't know any of you. :p
