Congratulations to Troy Stoner, winner of M-Audio’s Grand Prize Mobile Studio Package (Ableton Live, M-Audio Ozone, Studio Pack, Luna, ProSessions 1-17) and Runners Up Mike Christensen, Burufunk, and Sascha Dikiciyan & Shane Clark, winners of M-Audio’s ProSessions Sound and Loop Libraries. Here are BT's takes on the standout qualities of each tune.
The Force of Gravity (Sojourn's TCBY Remix)
Remix by Troy Stoner
“Although there were some great remixes of this song, Troy’s was head and shoulders above the rest. This is hysterical, because I found out way after I selected Troy’s mix as the winner for this song that he had also won Sasha’s remix contest for “Xpander.” Someone please give him a paying remix job immediately!”
Simply Being Loved (Somnambulist) (R3volve’s Countermeasure Mix)
Remix by Mike Christensen
“There were some fantastic remixes of this song, but I picked this one, not only because it’s the best, but because it’s very unique. The attention to detail in the synth work shows incredible promise. This Mike Christensen guy is someone to really watch.”
The Great Escape (Burufunk Remix)
Remix by Burufunk
“I know Curtis and Leah of Burufunk from shows in Texas and, in fact, I hired them to do a remix of “Simply Being Loved (Somnambulist).” When they sent this mix, they told me that it was an early Christmas present. When I finally listened to it, I was absolutely knocked sideways. These two are the essence of the phrase, a true emerging and upcoming talent.”
Communicate (Toksin’s Narcan Remix)
Remix by Sascha Dikiciyan & Shane Clark
“I’m blown away by everything that these guys are doing. They’re a really promising team of up-and-coming remixers. I understand that Sascha does some fantastic video game scores too. I’ve been playing this out and it goes down in an absolute storm!”
M-Audio and BPM would like to thank everyone who participated in this contest.
