More Remix Comp mixes now up…
Yep the remixes are coming thick and fast, I’m impressed by the quality and the speed at which you managed to make them!
I’ve not had chance to really listen to them yet as i’m still on tour and have been in the back of a van for 98% of the last week.
All the mixes are at the end of THIS post!
If you’d like to make a mix you have until 30th April to submit it – details in download pack.
Take care,
Leafcutter John.
Leafcutter John Remix Competition now open!
Post this on your website!
Just before I head out on tour with Polar Bear I want to let you know that the files are now up for the Remix Competition.
Included in the download you’ll find all the stems from the MicroSong ‘Big Black Eyes’
They are encoded as good quality MP3’s.
Your job is to make a fantastic remix using whatever tools are at your disposal.
There are a few simple rules:
1. You have until 30th April to complete your Remix and send it to me in MP3 form. There are no restrictions on style. The email address to send your entry is included with the download package. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT SEND: AIFF, WAV, or an uncompressed files!
2. You may add your own sound sources but please retain some of the originals or it’s not really a re-mix is it? You may chop, mangle, distress, sew, dilute, boil down amongst other treatments.
3. There will be one winner chosen by Leafcutter John and the winner will receive a very special prize, or a CD or something not too difficult to post. Winners will be announced as soon as possible after all the entries have been heard.
Depending on how many entries we get, we’ll try and put all the remixes up at leafcutterjohn.com
Because I’d like to see a lot of cool entries please spread the word far and wide, if you’d like to add the flyer just paste the following code into your website. As Dan has correctly pointed out the following code will only work of you re-type all the inverted commas – sorry can’t sort this out right now.

I did a project like this years ago and the response was amazing – get going you have just over a month!
Best of luck,
Leafcutter John.

Micro-Sound Remix update I & new duo project NAILS
Hello everyone,
I’ve had several inquires about where people can find the remix files – well they don’t exist yet I’m afraid. I was planning on making the next micro-song available for remix but I have not had change to make a micro-song yet as I’ve been a bit busy on other projects lately (like the the never-ending rent payment project). Sorry about the delay, but it’s nice to know you are generally into the idea.
Nails artwork made with Processing
One of the things I did last week was to make a myspace site for my duo project with Seb Rochford. We are called NAILS and you can visit, listen & befriend us right HERE! There will be more music up when we have had chance to do more edits….
best wishes,
Leafcutter John.
Open Remix. Do you have free space on your Server?
***********
UPDATE – Server space has now been kindly donated by Thorsten at highpointlowlife.com Many thanks to him and all that offered assistance!
I’ve been thinking about the suggestion that I should make the stems of the next Micro-Song available for download so you can all have a go at doing a re-mix. This would be great but I think that it will eat up all my bandwidth – SO….
Do you have any spare server space to host the stems and subsequent remixes?
If you do please contact me or leave a comment. If no body volunteers in the next week or so I’ll make the stems available via yousendit.com on a first come first served basis.
All the best,
Leafcutter John.
Big Black eyes micro-song remixed by Bluermutt
It’s amazing how fast things can move sometimes. Within hours of posting my first micro-song I received an email from Bluermutt in which he commented that he’d never seen a remix of one of my tunes, which is true. I sent Geo the stems and a week or so later he sent me this little beauty.
I hope you enjoy his interpretation the original is below if you have not heard it.
Thanks Gio!
Leafcutter John.
