Entries are streaming in for SA`s second annual online music remix competition, organisers say.
The MIO Remix Compo, put together by music industry information portal Music Industry Online (MIO), was launched earlier this month. It entails remixing a track by South African rock group, Raised by Wolves.
Professional and amateur music producers countrywide are reported to be putting their studios, software and sound machines through the paces for the contest, which offers over R12 000 in studio equipment and software in prizes.
"The response has been incredible," says MIO managing editor, Josh Adler. "The audio sample packs and original single have already been downloaded close to 800 times and we`ve already got a handful of superb submissions that are really different in style and interpretation.
"This is a platform for the expression of the talent and creativity inherent in the music production process. This project forms part of our mission at MIO to provide information, initiatives and opportunities for the growth of our South African music industry," continued Adler.
