Beatport has teamed up with the quartet of The Black Eyed Peas, consisting of will.i.am, Fergie, apl.de.ap, and Taboo, to offer aspiring producers the chance to remix their current number one hit single ‘I Gotta Feeling’.

‘I Gotta Feeling’ is the second single from the band’s new album ‘The E.N.D.’, and continues to sit at No.1 in the Billboard Hot 100 chart since its release. It has sold over 2 million downloads. The Black Eyed Peas just made Billboard history as the only artist with the longest successive stay at the top of the Hot 100 chart with 20 consecutive weeks at #1.

If it wasn't for Depeche Mode, electronic music might be very different. The English group's innovation in the studio, particularly with their use of samplers, has influenced electronic music in uncountable ways.

The three pioneers of techno - Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson and Juan Atkins, regularly cited Depeche Mode as an influence when they were experimenting with Detroit techno in the mid 1980s, and Depeche Mode are often named by today’s leading DJs and electronic music artists as key influencers.

No other band of their stature has commissioned so many dance music producers to remix their work. The list so far includes Danny Tenaglia, Sasha, UNKLE, Paul van Dyk, Ricardo Villalobos, Booka Shade, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Michael Mayer, Rex The Dog, Ewan Pearson, Plastikman, Speedy J, Orbital, Blackstrobe, Underworld and Boys Noize.

The band’s connection to electronic music is more than just influence, it helped to give it a beating heart. That makes a Depeche Mode remix contest something special, and for the first time ever, the band have agreed to let the public remix one of their songs officially.
Beatport is honoured to bring this unique opportunity to the electronic music community.
