The Remix Challenge

As we mentioned, the Creative Commons license means that this song is FREE and available for remix, so we are challenging you to a remix competition. Likewise if you are a film maker, animator, video hobbyist, or just need a good excuse to make a video work here is your reason! Upload them to YouTube with the tag CFFNZ.

The brief is: Make the ULTIMATE remix of the Copywrong Song.

• Remixes may be made from anywhere in the world.
• Submissions should be under 5 minutes long.
• Post the remix on the forum and share your song with everyone. If you're looking for a place to upload your MP3 use TinDeck .

A panel of highly reputable judges will decide the winning entry. First prize is SWEET SWEET FREEDOM (and a goody bag with choice prizes including a custom-designed CFF t-shirt).

Send your submissions in to cff@holloway.co.nz by 5pm, Wednesday 25th February 2009.

Track Contribution

We are taking track contributions for the Copywrong Song. If you can hear a spot that would sound ace with a putatara , or a great harmony, or where your voice or instrument would fit into the mix then record it, post it on the forums , and send the individual track to cff@holloway.co.nz.

We will be collating the tracks into our version of the ULTIMATE Copywrong Song in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

A recording session will take place in Wellington next Sunday 22 Feb for those of you without access to recording equipment. Contact us to make a booking to record your contribution (maximum of 1/2 hour slots only, so be prepared!).

As we may receive a whole bunch of tracks we can't promise to fit them all in to our second mix, but we do promise we will load ALL submissions to this website as a resource for others to you and others to sample and remix.
