KID CONGA REMIX CONTEST – THE WINNER
Wednesday, September 16th, 2009
My track “Kid Conga” feat. MC Miltinho is getting a lot of love these days. When Fairtilizer approached us to iniate the “Kid Conga Remix Contest” two weeks ago, the love for the track started to increase even more. We counted more than sixty (!) contributions from all around the world when the remix contest submission deadline ended yesterday. I carefully listened to all remixes, and in the end I divided all contributions in four categories picking the two best remixes in each particular style. Standing out were in the categories:
Big room bangers: SobEr, DJ P@app
Minimal: Juke Boyz, Daniel Farley
Ghetto bass: Dirty Monkeez, Kappy
Global beats: Bert On Beats, Tim Turbo
It was hard to decide on the ultimate finalist, but in the end there can only be one winner and it´s…….ramtatata: BERT ON BEATS a.k.a. DJ Critikal
His remix impressed me the most. The “Bert On Beats Remix” is a Kuduro inspired rework which is well mixed and engineered, it has a fantastically programmed half time break-part, plus the beat is bananas and the bassline is just killing it. Congratulations, Bert, err Critikal!
Many thanks to all contributors and to Fairtilizer, you can check out all remixes here.
And here´s the winner remix:
