Remixes created using illegally obtained stems will be disqualified from the contest.

2. Remix the track into your chosen style. All genres are welcome.

3. Submit your remix to Beatportal’s remix page. MP3 files sizes are limited and may be no larger than 10 MB.

4. The download phase begins January 19th 2010 and ends on January 26th.
