Tiesto wants your Remix

Previously dubbed as the world’s number one DJ Tiesto is now having a remix competition with Beatport.

Known and criticised of asking for money to download the remix parts Beatport does it again. To get all the remix parts bundled you have to invest 4,35 euros to the remix kit (available until October 5th).

That is actually a small price for the privilegde to legally remix one of the biggest names in the game, and a chance to win Tiësto merchandise, Ultra records music package and $250 gift certificate to Beatport.

I’m too busy, broke and uninterested to these vocals to take part to the competition, but are you taking part in it?

Ever wanted to remix Röyksopp?

Check out two great Röyksopp fan remixes, download the original and have a go at “Tricky Tricky” yourself!

Norwegian duo Röksopp released the brilliant album “Junior” in March, and it’s instrumental follow up “Senior” is out later this fall. In the meantime, Torbjørn and Svein decided to give away the parts of the single “Tricky Tricky” to creative fans. And what a remix package!

The material has been out there for a couple of months, and remixers from all over the world have had a go.

I have listened through most of the submissions so far, and I’ve found two really nice tracks. I think you will enjoy them too, if you can stand the fact that they both use auto tune to get away with their own melody.

First up: The original. This is actually up for free download as well:

When entering you’re uploading your track to a geographic category. Marcus Longfoot and Craig Williams submitted this excellent feelgood tune to the Australian folder at SoundCloud:

Then back to Norway again. Vendurain’s Return To V-Dur Remix is a beautiful slow electro stomper:
