Since the Algorhythms EP dropped last year, there's been a slow but steady demand for accapellas. Rather than just drop these quietly, we're going to run a whole summer-long remix contest and keep feeding you more.


THE RULES:
Do whatever you want. When you're done, though, we do have a few regulations.

Submissions have to be rendered in at least 256 kbps mp3 format. We don't want any .wav files until we decide we like your track. All entries will be judged by a rotating panel of WAR artists, with me and Dr. Quandary making the final decisions.

Submit your track to djmspbeats@gmail.com Deadline for submissions is August 1st.

We might suggest/request changes if we dig the track but the mix is off. The deadline for finished tracks is September 1st.

The winning submissions will all get included in a World Around Remix collection we'll be releasing online and promoting like crazed fire ants. You'll be alongside our in-house team, this won't just be the "Random People Online Remix Our Shit EP" -- this is an album-length project and it will be dope.

DOWNLOAD Algorhythms Accapellas Vol. 1

Questions? Problems? Hit us up. Thank you. (Yes, more accapellas on the way.)

A few common flaws are emerging. If you've read down this far, here's some friendly tips:

1. If the vocals aren't in sync with the beat, don't send us a mix.

2. Work with the vocals. Since your beat is going to SOUND DIFFERENT than the original, then the EQ and reverb on the vocals will no longer be suited to YOUR beat. So, play with that, sculpt it, work on making it fit. (Better yet: start chopping and make them more interesting.)

3. Someone submitted the Dreams of Lisbon instrumental with them rapping over it -- easily one of the worst verses I've heard in my life, too. I'll assume it was an art student kinda joke.

Don't let this discourage you, though. If you're good, you're good, there's no rules against adding original rapping.

Sorry about that guys -- we had to replace the original zip and neglected to update our blog links. Should be all set now, so click on the link above, or this one:

Hey guys, just wanted to know if it's OK with you to post my remix of "What's This?" on a DJ forum to get feedback from other DJs?

Man, this has been a real comedy of errors for some reason.  We've had a little trouble with DJ MSP's Mediafire account.

I've updated the link in the actual blog post, but here it is again:
