Right! The big BIT Live Brighton remix competition is...

BREAKDANCE!

We're holding a competition on the night where people will compete to
dance like the C64 guys from the Epyx Game "Breakdance". But we don't
just want them to dance to the SID, oh no. We want remixes
of Breakdance (Mahoney's is already entered!!). Make them
in any style you want, including SID + drums + funky samples +
anything you like (go nuts): basically, we'll rank them in order of
easiness to dance to, and give them in increasing order of difficulty
to the contestants. If your contestant wins, you win!!

*** important change ***
email entries to: breakdance@c64audio.com

Closing date: Thursday 11th September!

Good luck... and get funky!

Oooh oooh! A compo! :D

Need to get started on something here...after I've had my lunch...

Expect something soon. ;)

Oh, and btw. since I've got passage to the RKO queue:
Is this a secret competition? As in, if I enter I may not listen to the other entries? In that case I'll keep my filthy finger away from them in queue. :)

Not really. It's unlikely that hearing anyone else's entry would
affect your (or their) chances of some dancer dude winning :)

It does disqualify you from the judging though :)

Change of plan: my previous one WAS a bit of a liberty, so email entries to breakdance@c64audio.com.

Aah, man!

A cool compo! I need to visit more often!
I have just one day of free time to mix the music and learn the moves. (cause the way it looks now I'll be dancing to my own tune and win double!!!) :D

I'm gonna force Larsec to dance to my track...and according to DHS, Larsec and I are going to have a dance battle. :D

Heh, I can do that. :) Don't worry. Maybe Larsec and I should have a battle to your remix, as it's a bit longer than mine. ;)
