David Bowie Encouraging Remixes Of His Music
from the good-for-him dept
While EMI and the Beatles flipped out about the whole Grey Album mess, where a DJ remixed Beatles songs with the latest vocals from Jay-Z, some musicians are realizing this is a good way to get more attention. David Bowie (who was very early on in embracing new internet technologies) is actually running a contest encouraging people to remix his songs with vocals from other singers. His website even offers up downloadable tools to help people out.
