THE WINNERS ARE OUT!
Vicious V53 – https://soundation.com/user/ViciousV53
Vicious is an up and coming producer on soundation who has shown lot’s of promise with his music. In this challenge he has shown that he is capable of making solid bangers!
A word from a judge: “although I can’t tell if it uses a whole bunch of loops, if it does, nvm.Otherwise, it has extremely friggin’ good sound design, so if it’s original, then that’s one of my choices.”
We were able to assure this judge it wasn’t loops and it blew their mind! CONGRATS VICIOUS V53!
Unclassic – https://soundation.com/user/J-c-p
Unclassic is an user that suddenly sprung into the soundation game with his mad sampling game and decided to test his power level with this challenge. It succeeded, because it made him rise to the top 3 of this challenge!
Some words from the judges: “I pick Unclassics remix just because it was so creative. He has a distinct style and I think he did a good job showcasing his abilities with his royal remix. I think it also showcases the best sound design of any of the submitted tracks.” “the way he edits songs is crazy, i love the tension throughout the song as well as the glitched sound affects. the panning is on point and the drums are very well done for the type of song he was going for. the billie eilish vocals were also nice the way he edited them. overall very nice track.”
Unclassic posted two bangers and made us know he is the next hot thing. CONGRATS Unclassic!
overdoze – https://soundation.com/user/overdoze-music
This one was to be expected. overdoze is a solid top producer on this site and with his remix he yet again proves why.
A few comments from the judges: " it has the most stuff going on that actually works and it’s super cool and builds on the original." “The sound design is solid and I love how he brings full bodied yet sort of scratchy and lofi sort of sounds into his work. I think from a standpoint of composition and overall listenability it’s the best track.” “i loved the affects on the arps and the peaceful beginning, and i loved the transition from calm to crazy dubstep growls. the structure, sound design, and melodies were on point. and the saw stab things were beautiful. it was really well put together overall.”
All I can say is, “I agree”. CONGRATS overdoze!
I will message the winners to let them claim their prizes.

I just realized that the information above says "I will try and be biased." Aren't you supposed to try to NOT be biased?

Oh, that's perfect. Since I had no idea what to do make next, I decided I wanted to try working on another remix. I feel like Royal is going to take quite a bit more time to remix than Mount VIP did.

Due to personal stuff I've extended the due date to July 4th, plenty of time to finish your remixes!

@pete sure, they're talented. but most of the trap genre we've seen here is a very unique and simple style. i don't think he was mentioning the actual trap artists either. i think he's referencing the very basic version of the style and the youngins who do actually just throw a few loops together and call it a day
Missiony

I'm not quite done but here's what I've got so far. Definitely open to feedback: https://soundation.com/user/bubble-enthusiast/track/echoes-dutch-remix-challenge-wip

And I still am in of opinion that most of it is repetetive 🤷♂️

"Don’t make it repetetive (I’m looking at you “trap artists” out there, no 5 channels looping over and over and over and over again)" not a big fan of this. if you call them trap "artists", which do exist, they deserve that title. there are genuinely talented producers, (faction shadows many, many producers for example) and it's not fair to diss them all out like that. i have yet to find a trap producer (set aside the mountain of free accs) who has little talent, or who loops 5 channels over and over. the least you could do is just not single them out.
UNCLASSIC
I say anything with an I6 is alright to handle this but even then doing edits sometimes was very slow. I still had to remove a good portion of the channels cause there was a lot going on and sometimes it made it slow but it wasn't impossible. Removing the drum and noise presets help but the VA synth typically is what stressed the computer
