Subject: Defected 2010 Producers' Competition!
Defected launch their Producer Competition 2010 in partnership with
Traxsource, Ableton and Loopmasters.
Following the enourmous success of Defected's Producer Competition
last year, we can announce details of a second competition for 2010.
Last year's competition generated a huge amount of interest from the
dance community, clocking up 1.500 entries with close to 20,00 people
registering on the site to rate and comment on the tracks. The
standard of tracks was of the highest order, but eventually 19 year of
Dutch producer Robacco Bossa's track 'Black Bird' was selected as the
winner and released on Defected Records
This time around Defected have teamed up with download hub Traxsource,
top sample resource Loopmasters and leading production software
company Ableton to bring you another chance to hit the big time.
The rules of the competition remain the same; upload your tracks to
the site where they'll be rated and commented on. Phase II of the
competition sees the Defected A&R team pick their favourite 10 track,
which are then voted on by the public.
The competition launches on Monday 25th January and the first phase of
the competition will run for four weeks. There will then be a short
break while the final 10 are selected. Once these 10 have been
chosen, the final phase of voting will last for 10 days, during which
time those in the running will have to promote their track as much as
possible and get their friends and fans voting like their careers
depended on it!
Last year's competition proved that there is a wealth of undiscovered
talent out there. This is your chance to hit the big time and see
your tracks released on one of the most respected labels in the
history of house music.
