Well I was gonna suggest we ran this contest on the new forum if we managed to get it set up but it looks like it has been diversified as have the majority of the memebers of this forum all ready so I'm not sure it's owrth the hassle.

i like the Jungle Bros "I'll House You" idea - thanx for bringin that up Cutter. For those that dont know it by name, you've probably heard it somewhere b4 - very well known track.

another theme/idea i had was a Matrix sample pack - i.e. Red Pill, Blue Pill.....
[img]http://www.filmbespreking.be/2red_pill_1024x768-med.jpg[/img]
..... "This is your last chance".

Oh & I meant "Split up into Rounds" instead of "Groups" in my main post.

J



The Matrix sample has been remixed to death. Im feeling the Jungle Brother idea tho.

Could it be that the House Compo is back on? Obviously the prize for first place is pride in ones work, creative talent and the envy of those who competed but lost. No pellas required. Also if any judges are needed I would be happy to particpate. Just a thought. :D

The Cutter but to those who dont know me it's Mr. Cutter to you

Hi guys. I know you are all anxious to get the competion under way. You have to admit that we've all been through a bit of turmoil this last week. Give us a couple of days to reorganise ourselves, I'm sure some kind of announcement will be made shortly. I'm also sure that we'll probably get some kind of remix pack to work with.
Thank you all for your continued loyal support both through the good and bad times it really is very much appreciated.

Take care

Val x

Does it have to be a 4/4 pattern or can we submit a breakbeat version as well?

I am guessing that 4/4 is preferable, they have to be quite similar otherwise it would be hard to judge, but I wouldn't take my word for it!

Juno,

Would you let me enter a progressive breaks mix of what song you choose to remix?

of course HouseFly! :D
i'll probably be entering a breaks track myself
i posted this a few pages back:

i wrote:after thinking about it i think any type of EDM should be welcome
no doubt that we have a wide variety of styles going into this competition. I dont want anyone to feel like they need to try & do something that drifts from their style to fit in with the rest of the crowd.

all types: House, Trance, Breakbeat, Elektro, Garage & any smaller subgenres are all good - just as long as we're all in the normal range of dance music [ 120bpm - 150bpm ]. The catch to having that creativity is that you have to please the judges to do well in this comp - dont go too far with it b/c they will most likely be House producers & DJ's.


oh & your right about the Matrix idea - we wont b using it

my style is to do 4/4 and breaks in the same track alot of the time so that's probably how this one will go.

Thanks for all your interest so far!

Juno's got the details of what pella we'll be using (I hope) so watch this space.. the one we chose is a bit of a ka-lassik! on playmaker's recommendation aswell.

Think I'll even help co-judge this one myself aswell, who knows, if it's good enuff good things may come of it.
