Matthew Dear is lovely, but Audion - the project he makes little to no effort in concealing his identity (the above picture is probably his greatest attempt) - surpasses his namesake and the Big Hands band that accompanies him. While his pop sense is top notch, Audion is vicious in such a restrained manner.
Now there's a chance to remix one of his most discomforting tracks, "Billy Says Go," which is worth the reverence of being one of the most excellent minimal tracks to appear on around the country in clubs large and small.
The Audion ‘Billy Says Go’ remix contest has three phases:
1. September 9th - September 16, 2008 - Download phase - Download the remix parts, and get remixing.
2. September 16th - September 30, 2008 - Upload/Submission phase - Upload your remix to Beatportal at www.beatportal.com/remix. During this phase the entries can be listened to, but not voted for. The remix parts will still be available to download during this phase.
3. September 30th - October 14, 2008 - Voting phase - The public votes for their favorite remixes by ‘spinning’ them.
After a period of deliberation, the winners will be announced on October 30th, 2008. The grand prize winner will receive a Native Instruments Traktor Scratch, a $100 Beatport gift card, and a Beatport gift bag full of Beatport goods.
