Proton Radio's 4th remix contest has come to a close with over 200 submissions from remixers around the world. We won't dilly daddle with promotional copy-- onto the results!
Stuart McKeown & Darius Bassiray's 'Leaving Melbourne Mix'
You'll notice that there were two prominent, but very different, themes to the backstory of Okoboji: horrendous bloodshed and breathtaking beauty. While a majority of contestant's remixes can be filed under the latter, Stuart McKeown (UK) and Darius Bassiray (AU) deliver a visceral remix that is perhaps the only one to successfully capture both sides of the story-- and they manage to do so in the intro alone. Haunted wails and distorted synths intertwine seamlessly through-out in a breathtaking display of force, sound design and sample modification.
Proton Music will make sure that you'll be hearing plenty more from these two in the weeks ahead-- but until then, read an interview with the winning duo and listen to the extended preview of the remix!
