This post was originally posted on our other site, Remix Comps but seemed like a good post to place on Producing Beats too.
SoundCloud has only been around for a short time (Since 2007) but has become one of the best known ways of distributing both a streamable and downloadable version of your tracks. Thanks to a few of SoundCloud's features it makes the site a good choice for those of you who want to run your own remix contest.
We are regularly seeing remix contest organizers using SoundCloud services as the foundation of running their remix contest. This post is to give people an idea of what SoundCloud can offer to help run a remix contest and to also a review of SoundCloud's services when using it to run a remix contest.

For the past few weeks I haven't posted on Producing Beats because I have been working on another project, but to make up for the lack of posts, I shall give you what I was using my free time on. The project was a book all about Remixing Remix Contests for my other site Remix Comps.
Feel free to download the free eBook below, it contains about 20 pages in information on getting started on remix contest, how to go about remixing a track and also how to run your own remix contest for your own music. Also feel free to send along to friends if you think their remixing might benefit from having the eBook. If you want to distribute via a web site, please get in touch before you do and I will most likely give permission.

Our sister site is Remix Comps and every week on Producing Beats we list our Top 5 new remix contests for you to work on in the week ahead and remember that if that's not enough remember to head over to RemixComps to find even more contests like these.
- DJ Shadow Remix Contest
DJ Shadow is holding what he calls a remix project, simply remix one of his tracks and you could get featured as a free download or win $250. No remix stems are listed but that doesn't stop you from sampling just like the man himself does. - Jorge Jaramillo and Sounderson - Drop The Bass Remix Contest
