Jim Perkins - Grains - Remix Competition

Please log in to submit to this request

Price:
The winning re-mix will be included on the follow up EP to Jim's debut album Grains which will be released in June. The track will also be promoted for sync opportunities by Jim's label bigo & twigetti.

Briefing:
Jim Perkins is a contemporary composer and producer. He runs the underground contemporary label bigo & twigetti. Jim's debut album 'Grains' has been identified as one to watch in 2011 by music critics and radio presenters including Nick Luscombe from BBC Radio3's Late Junction, Anthony Fantano from WNPRs The Needle Drop and from music blogs and press including the Silent Ballet and CMU music weekly.
Grains is an atmospheric, instrumental piece for piano and strings. The piece starts with what sound like fragmented, minimal, disparate and unrelated sounds. As the music progresses the harmony and underlying patterns gradually find form revealing a familiar yet distinctive sonic world.
We are looking for remixes that transform Grains in surprising and creative new directions whilst retaining the essence of the original. There are no specific guidelines for this re-mix so feel free to be creative.
n.b. the piece is recorded to a click at 75 BPM. However it gradually slows down to toward the end.
