Today, we want to start the first official remix contest on Equinox. The track we chose to have remixed, “Eating Concrete”, is the title track of Geste‘s upcoming new EP on Equinox Records (dropping on March 25th) which you can check out here:

We thought we would give everyone the opportunity to remix this powerful song and give upcoming (and also established?) producers the chance and win a release on Equinox Records or Equinox.Digital as well as some other goodies. The layers should work for many different styles: Electro, Electronica, Dubstep, Glitch-Hop, whatever you feel like…

Taking part in this remix contest is really easy – just download the files below and then send in your remix within the given time frame!
