Would love to hear your remix though...
The tempo is 105 BPM.
Yes! The contest is open for everyone!!
:)
Ideally, yes. One remix submission per person.
:)
What do you mean by "lyrics?"
And thanks for the multiple submissions, Rounik. Allows us to do a "standard" mix and then another creative remix which is nice.
We've discussed this with the DubWays crew and multiple submission are ALLOWED!
Enjoy remixing :)
Can we add additional instruments, such as percussion?
Thanks,
Bill
Enjoy :)
That's an interesting idea. We might do something like that for the next SongCraft contest...
No problem! Enjoy remixing this song :)
Sorry, I missed your comment yesterday...
The key of the song is G major.
Good luck :)
Ben kindly provided the lyrics:
The sound of metal under strain
The rising grid, the swelling plain
A match struck in a darkened room
And I'm blind
My arm is hurting on the train
The yarn left on a dwindling skein
The blood still thrumming through my veins
And she's gone
No, no, no
Used to be so hard to see through your mind
You could have told me, I'd have listened
You could have held me,I'd have stayed
The least you could do is pretend.
That's fine too... a remix can be literally re-mixing the original song... or a complete overhaul of the song structure, instrumentation and style...
It's completely up to you which type of remix you wish to create :)
I see; thanks for clearing that up. There sure are a wide variety of mixes in there!
It's the silver version :)
On my first listen through, the song screamed a specific story at me.
I tried to use what I was given to make that story.
I think I succeeded.
Hope you like it!

31st July Midnight means today midnight PST (in 18hrs) or tomorrow midnight? o_O
Cheers
Next contest will coincide with the next SongCraft video course release... a few weeks away I think.

Any idea when the results will be out?
The latest info I've got from the artists via the Dubways crew is that we may have the results around the 22nd August...
