As one of the world’s biggest DJs, Britain’s Sasha knows a thing or two about good music.

He has asked Beatportal to help him find one talented producer to remix his hit single ‘Mongoose’, one of the biggest tracks of the year, for his own record label emFire.

This is a huge competition as so far, only Sasha’s solo productions have appeared on the label.

So this is your chance to be the first ever artist (other than Sasha) to appear on emFire!

What’s more the remix competition is open to producers from all genres – Sasha’s looking for innovative, cutting-edge and thought-provoking mixes of his track.
