Don’t think, don’t speak, just listen…

The X-Press 2 Remix competition has ended… Here is a group of 3 DJ’s who I have respected for over 15 years, they’re new album is done, and the first single, “Kill 100″ is released to the world for them to interpret however they like. I thought I’d give it a go, ran really really close to the deadline (ie: I got my remix sent in 30 minutes before the deadline) and was prepared for it to go no further since I wasn’t overly impressed with it and would’ve done a lot more if I had the time… A week or so passes and I get this email saying my remix is in the top 100 (out of over 3000 entries!), each of which had been handpicked by X-Press 2.

From that point, it was back to each finalist to brag, beg and get as much support as possible. All of the finalists remixes were available for download, and after 10 days, the remix with the most sales was to be officially released, along with a few other nice prizes.

Okay, so I didn’t win, but the final chart put my remix at #27, which I’m pretty pleased with, taking into consideration the short amount of time I had to do it in and the number of entries that went into the thing.

I take it as a sign that I’m on the right track… time to hit the accelerator and see what else can happen.

PS: For anyone interested, a sample of my remix is available at www.myspace.com/_lelo
