Beat The Clock: Abelton and Soundcloud Announce Remix Competition

Two likely partners, Abelton and Soundcloud have come together to kick off a rather interesting spin on the usual remix competition.

Instead of utilising a single song from a single artist the thinkers at both innovative companies have grabbed sounds from artists M83, Junior Boys and Nosaj Thing.

What’s the hitch? Well once you have downloaded the ‘Live Pack’ you have exactly 24 hours to assemble, master, upload and submit. Our tip? Don’t reinvent the universe. Use what you have made before: previous experiments, older productions, interesting plugin effect chain, anything! Having a good workflow can, at last, do you some good.

Prizes include a trip to Berlin, Ableton Suite with free upgrades for life, five years of a SoundCloud Pro Plus account and more with the winners selected from the community and artists themselves.

Imagine the drums from Junior Boys, uplifting harmonies from M83 and ambient layers from Nosaj Thing!

1st prize winner receives:

  • Round trip to Berlin for two people including the following: Hotel stay for 4 nights, visits to the Ableton and SoundCloud headquarters, and a session with Ableton’s Lead Product Specialist
  • Ableton Suite with free upgrades for life
  • 5 year SoundCloud Pro Plus account
  • 1 Akai APC40

2nd + 3rd prize winners receive:

  • Ableton Suite with free upgrades for life
  • 5 year SoundCloud Pro Plus account
  • 1 Novation Launchpad

4th-10th prize winners receive:

  • Session with an Ableton Certified Trainer in your city or online training from one of our partners
  • 1 year SoundCloud Pro Plus account
