Rip! A Remix Manifesto

RiP!: A Remix Manifesto is a 2008 open source documentary film about the "the changing concept of copyright" directed by Brett Gaylor.
Created over a period of six years, the documentary film features the collaborative remix work of hundreds of people who have contributed to the Open Source Cinema website, helping to create the "world's first open source documentary" as Gaylor put it. The project's working title was Basement Tapes, (probably referring to the album of the same name) but it was renamed RiP!: A Remix Manifesto prior to theatrical release. Gaylor encourages more people to create their own remixes from this movie, using media available from the Open Source Cinema website, or other websites like YouTube, Flickr, Hulu or MySpace.

"Our friend Camille Troillard is setting up a little incentive with his band Neïmo. They are organizing a remix contest of the song Lines, which is their second single, that marks the launch of the album 'Moderne Incidental' in Germany, and the freshly shot video for this song.
Fairtilizer will offer the winner a digital release of the track, and some nice goodies.
In addition to that prize, if the winner is using OSCulator to make the track, Camille would like to offer a $100 worth iTunes gift certificate, and 5 free licenses. Be creative, and use his software for this remix!"

Foem 'Allez Allez' Remix Contest

So its that time of the month again for the next Foem remixing competition. This round we are challenged with remixing the track 'Defeatist' by Allez Allez- who are a duo from london under the Boxer recordings label based out of Cologne. The requirements are that you take at lease one sample from the Allez Allez's song 'Defeatist' and turn it into 2 individual tracks. The prize is what is what i find to be one of the biggest draws-aside from the opportunity to rework an excellent track with their stems and midi files- which is a vinyl ep which is to be paired with a remix of the same song by Ricardo Tobar- who was recently signed on to James Holden's "Border Community" Label ( if you haven't heard of this label you have to check it out, his label is putting out some of the most intriguing and experimental music out of london these days). To enter sign up to Foem and all the digital samples and midi files are open to you, just remember to register for the contest to be considered.

Good Luck and Happy Mixing,

Cheers

Dj Azzo
