Pamette Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 http://musique.evous.fr/Big-Girl-de-Mika-remixe-par-500-DJ,2518.html "DJ Buzz, le premier "pool" de DJs français, a lancé un concours de remixes sur la chanson Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) de Mika. Chacun des 520 disc-jockeys participants va ainsi recevoir les éléments qui composent le morceau afin de les retravailler et d’en proposer une nouvelle version. C’est Mika lui-même qui désignera le vainqueur. Selon son label Barclay, cette opération est "une belle opportunité pour les jeunes DJ qui veulent faire découvrir leur talent". A noter que son premier opus Life in Cartoon Motion s’est déjà écoulé à plus de trois millions d’exemplaires à travers le monde. Plusieurs de ses chansons ont déjà fait l’objet de remixes, parfois non officiels, souvent disponibles sur Internet" http://www.djbuzz.com/en/pages_music/epk.asp?numdisc=1186 DJ Buzz and Barclay are organizing a Remix contest of Mika's last single "Big Girl". DJ Buzz will provide the parts of the track to its 520 DJs members, so they can rework, remake the structure of the song. If the winning remix is accepted by Mika, it will be used promotionally & even sent to some radios. As the bootlegs are becoming very important in DJs sets, the best bootleg will be awarded too. There will be a fee if the remix is commercially released, but mostly it's above all things a great creative opportunity for young talented DJs / producers to show their talent. It's also a way for Mika to thank those who contributed to his success: the DJs. Not a member? The tracks are at the link below. Go bootleg this! Mica himself will choose the winner. It's funny because there are every part of the song; the voices, the guitar,... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queenie Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 500? Oh my god..Mika, you have to listen a lot!! Thanks for posting, Pamette! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjappie Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Nice! Is there a way for us to listen to the remixes which already are done? I'm curious.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAK1 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Blimey he's gonna be a busy boy if he has to listen to all 500 entries! But since he seems to like his remixes, he's had them on every single so far, I think he's gonna enjoy it. I'm looking forward to hearing the winner.

Scut Monkey Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Mica himself will choose the winner. He's going to listen to 500 remixes of himself singing? That would drive anyone nuts. It's funny because there are every part of the song; the voices, the guitar,... It's interesting to dissect the song, hear its parts individually. Thanks for that.
