How did you find out about this contest? Moste likely cos
you're a visitor of this site... but there has been a
massive response with loads of new members signing up.. I'm
just curious...... :)

i hadn't visited this site in a while, then i was at work
one day and for nostalgia's sake i decided to check the
board. that was 1 month before the remix due date. now i'm
back and hooked on this board again.

well, I just found aphextwin.nu searching for information
about aphex twin when I first started getting into his music
a couple years ago... that site was like the first or second
site to come up... and through aphextwin.nu, I learned about
xltronic.com...

ehm...i think Phobia is adressing the newbies who signed up
to enter the contest.

they never post again

i've been around various message boards and as this site
grew out of the old ones i would occasionally check in to
see what was up. i wasn't really interested in the message
board, though i'd occasionally look through it for info. i
did, actually, create the membership for the ae contest.

this contest was announced on numerous mailing lists
including the IDM list.

that is why there are so many entries i would guess.

I want to know how the contest was created phobe.. did you
approach ae? Did they approach you? Did they hear my pillow
comp and say "oh wow these xltronic guys have it together,
let's hold a remix contest"?

I want all the juicy details.

i used to date xltronic's mom, so i used to see xltronic
around the house, and one day it just hit me; "xltronic is
the one for me. i want to spend the rest of my life with
xltronic."

Yes, I did sign up for the contest. I admit it, I got here
from the ae site, saw the top of the page and that was it.
But I dig this, the site's all together very cool, and it'd
be pointless to be a member but never say anything.

So, what I'm trying to say is, hi.

I signed up for the contest but I didn't get that XLTronic
was the old autechre.nu at first. A friend (avart) gave me
the tip about it. I am currently between genres and dunno
where I will end up (currently making "electro" I think...).
I'm no quantity poster...will only be bringing top notch
quality here! ;)

Erhm, one of my friends showed me the site sometime back in
april which sparked a mini-contest between us to see who
could do the best remix of an ae track that's a common
personal favourite.
Of course I went and cheated and did it collaberativly with
an internet buddy... and submitted it here... and stuff...
but, er, hooray anyway.

yes and of those 20 posts it seems most are made because you
are overly defensive.

I don't think afxNUMBs comment was only directed at you.

I found out from friends during electronic venues here in
Portland that there was an autechre remix thing going on
somewhere out there. I make music and it sounded like fun. I
typed Autechre Remix Contest into google and blammo. I
didn't originally know about the list, but now that I found
it... I like it. Can I keep it?

i make music - and i didnt enter the contest - because i
dont really like autechre that much - and i cant make music
becuase i want ot - it just happens

i have a hard time making music for a sepecific reason - i
suck balls at remixing

i'm the same way...whenever i start remixing something it
always turns into something that sounds nothing like the
original and i just call it an original work

i was a regular visitor to autechre.nu & aphextwin.nu ever
since those sites were put up, but i was never all too
inclined to join any of the messageboards, at the time not
being aware that topic-wise, anything goes, and it's not
just obsessed fanboys discussing the virtues of track A over
track B. i kept checking when the xltronic.com merger of all
the other sites would happen, but it all seemed kind of
stale in that department, so it wasn't until the ae contest
that i joined the board, but it was well worth it! i'm damn
addicted now! i used to post on audiogalaxy quite a lot back
in its hayday, but xltronic owns!
