A double whammy from Bleed Electric; audio and video mixing!

Bleed Electric is offering “IV. Birds as High as Planes” for remixing. An interesting track; think Electroclash meets Public Enemy via Kanye, and you’ve got a start.

The band is also looking for a video. Create a video to accompany your remix, and you could be a two-time winner!

About Bleed Electric
Bleed Electric is the brainchild of Welsh record producer Chris Maguire. The band's highly-anticipated self-titled debut album is nearing completion. While the band toils away in the studio putting the finishing touches on what has already been referred to as "a mind-blowing record," they've offered up a lone track for remixing and for video creation.



BLEED ELECTRIC, in conjunction with Altsounds, Screamadelica Studios and Acidplanet.com®, invite you to put your own spin on song 'IV. Birds as High as Planes.' The rules are simple- remix the song. Our favourite remix wins! Create your own music video inspired by the music and lyrics. Best visuals win! Both the best video and best remix will be considered for potential inclusion as a B-side and official music video.


How To Enter, Prizes and Rules
  1. First go to to the Acidplanet contest page HERE
  2. Download the multi-tracks and create your remix of "IV. Birds as High As Planes."
  3. Upload you entry HERE
If you don't already have ACID® software, download the free ACID XPRESS™ software. Next, download some of the loops. Using the ACID music creation software, paint the loops into your remix. When you're finished, return to this page and click the Upload My Entry button. Upload your track, and you've entered the contest.

Tips
  • At 12:00 a.m. midnight PST on Thursday, June 18, 2009, the contest will be closed and no further uploads will be accepted. If you are new to ACIDplanet, you should create an account and upload a song as soon as possible so that you can work out any problems with uploading that you may encounter. Also, uploading a song can take a considerable amount of time. It's better not to wait until the last few hours of the contest to start uploading your entry.

    Entrants must upload a Windows Media format or Real Media format version of their entry first. You will not be able to upload any additional formats after the contest closes, so if also you want to upload an mp3 version, please allow enough time to upload them both before the contest closing time.

    Entrants must provide accurate contact information (valid e-mail and postal address) in their registration at ACIDplanet.com for the purpose of contacting winners. You can update your contact information here.

I am sure this is a stupid question but where do you get the actual track from?

Acidplanet.com/bleedelectric there you can download the physical studio
multitracks to use as you want to create a remix. You can also listen to a
really funny "radio" edit word of the song with all the words like fuck and
shit blanked out. It's only when you listen like that I realize how many
swear words we have in a song! It's funny how they thought the line "Pull
out my gun and tell my buddies, i'm gonna murder them" is allowed to stay
though. Haha

Yeah I have the multitracks but I thought it would be easier to start with the full track and edit it from there. I have never remixed before so I am guessing this is not the right way to approach it?

When I first started mixing I actually never started by listening to the
original. The direction of the completed track can potentially taint you
into doing something a certain way. I would say listen through the
multitracks until there is something you like and start with that. Then put
the next thing in you like. You can also inerject whatever you want from
wherever else to it too. The idea here is to make this sound like something
you want to hear.
