Follow on Google News | Makers of Sense Launch Remix ContestThe duo is calling for remixes of their new album. The winners will be included in the record and perform in the release tour. Welcome to the era of Web 2.0 music releases, where your favorite band invites you to play and record with them.
By: The Beat Bank “We always fill our music with new sounds and grooves that are perfect starting points for different remix versions”, says Cristian Huepe a.k.a. labo_labs, one of the two members of the band, “and we think some of those versions could make great dance tracks”. The band has pushed the envelope to create a different sound, in the tradition of Spank Rock, Santogold and other mavericks. They are at the forefront of today's music scene, fusing electronica, hip hop, house, trance, dub, and live instrumentation. Brother El, the other member the duo, explains what they expect from the contest, "We are mainly interested in club and dance oriented remixes that are appealing to DJs, but would also really like to get creative submissions in any other style." The Makers of Sense have made their mark in the music scene by using innovative approaches to production and promotion. They sparked widespread interest last year by becoming the first band to offer a live act on eBay, performing at the highest bidder’s 2008 New Year celebration. Later this year, they went on to win the Chicago Reader Magazine's, “Best Experimental Act for 2008”. Their debut album, “Out of the Box” is scheduled for a December ’08 national and international release. In their view, everything related to this record, from the tour and promotional campaign to the music, must be Out of the Box! # # # The Makers of Sense are Brother El and Cristián Huepe. Together, they fuse energies to create radical bodies of music combining unusually warm electronica, hip hop, house, trance, dub, live instrumentation and urban elements with new styles. End
