Humankind Remix Competition – Less than 2 weeks to go
There's now less than two weeks to go until the Humankind Remix Competition closes and the response has been incredible.
To submit your entry, you can do so by using the SoundCloud dropbox link below.
Don't forget to check out the rules though. Dull, but important.
Humankind competition featured on LaptopRockers site
LaptopRockers.eu - the place where music junkies unite for music technology and remix news is promoting the Humankind Remix Competition.
Last year the site also ran with news of the Irresistible Remix Competition, which ultimately added to the success of the competition and undoubtedly increased the number of entries. The winning entries of that competition were Sven Erler and Sean Smith and their remixes featured on the digital release of the single.
The Humankind Remix Competition runs until 1st August 2010.
Humankind stem downloads beyond expectations
With the Humankind Remix Competition in full swing, the number of downloads of the track stems have exceeded all expectations.
With just a few weeks until the competition closes, even if just a quarter of the downloads turn into actual entries it will make the competition far bigger than last year's Irresistible Remix Competition and no doubt even harder to judge.
The competition has been listed on the Remix Comps website.
Andrew is said to be very excited by the entries and the number of downloads of the stems.
Corrupt File
A very small number of downloaders commented that one of the files within the bundle was corrupt. This was replaced on 4th July with a fresh file. If you also experienced this, you can download a fresh copy of just that track from the competition page.
Humankind Remix Competition is launched
Andrew officially launched the Humankind Remix Competition this afternoon.
The prize will see winning entry/entries being included in the digital single release of 'Humankind' - a robotic synth romp - which will be distributed via the likes of iTunes, Amazon and Napster etc.

Remix competition to be announced soon
Andrew confirmed that there will be another remix competition coming up soon in light of the phenomenal response to last year's 'Irresistible Competition'.
"We've been busy planning another remix competition. Looking at the volume and quality of the Irresistible remixes, there is such a rich and diverse pool of talent out there" - Andrew, June 2010.
It's unclear as yet which track and what the prize would be, but it is assumed that it will be for 'Humankind' and will involve winning a slot on the forthcoming single.
In The City – b-side?
Andrew has confirmed that he has been recording vocals for a track called 'In The City' today.
On his Facebook Fan Page, he wrote:
It is believed that 'In The City' may be the b-side for the forthcoming 'Humankind' single.
