Over at the Drum&BassArena forum the production section is full of talented music producers all keen to discuss the latest in breaks, beats and most importantly – bass! It’s a great place to hear fresh new music, ask technical questions, bounce ideas around and enter competitions.
Take for example the latest ‘Remix a Classic’ competition where forum producers took a seminal classic from the ‘99 to ‘03 era, remixed it to their own taste and put it out there to be judged. These tunes are not only being judged by other forum members but by the likes of Nicky Blackmarket, Jaydan and DJ Stretch. What other way would you get your music in front of such high profile people and in such a short space of time? Not to mention that the 3 tracks Blackmarket chose as his top 3 are now in his virtual dj box for this weekends sets.
This isn’t the only competition we organise either, usually 3 to 4 production challenges are set every year. Forthcoming is the BBQ and Bass competition where producers are tasked with coming up with a tune strictly featuring summertime vibes.
Entering these competitions is a great way to utilise your skills, try your hand at different sub genres and most importantly – get your music heard by loads of like minded people.
