Competitions

We've got a winner! Thanks to No Weapon for letting us shoot the announcement in their studio. As promised here's the video of my daughter eating cake.

The 5th annual Mutant Breaks is so unorganized I'm not even going to bother posting anything about it. Click to click.

We've got a winner! As promised here's the video of my daughter picking the winning piece of paper from a hat.

Here is the vote pack: MBC4.zip [194 MB]

There are 23 songs in this pack. Participants must pick and post their top 3 in the Mutant Breaks Competition #4 thread or they are disqualified. The top 10 go into a hat. My ~18 month old daughter picks a winner. I will make a YouTube video of this.

Once a year this shit is mandatory!

The The Efficient Music Competition is almost over and we want YOU to vote. The submitted songs combine awesomeness with low CPU usage which is exactly what we are looking for. All that remains is picking the winning song. Vote now - the voting booths are closing this Sunday.

The "optimize your song like hell" aka Renoise/Indamixx/CDM compo has a new name; The Efficient Music Competition. We have just opened a new mini-site on renoise.com, where you can upload and download songs, discuss optimization techniques and vote for competition entries - in a special kind of way.

Three strikes, you're out! Mutant Breaks Compo 2009 "RBI Baseball" is over and we have the results. Blac Waldo - Chicken Eggz 2.0 struck gold, Spodnik - Drail is a close second.

Trackers have always been about getting the most out of little. Big productions from tiny bed rooms. Epic songs in kilobytes rather than megabytes. And most importantly, all that through your personal computer instead of a multi-million dollar studio.

Lately we've been spoiled with elaborate plugins, unlimited channels and an ever more powerful growing CPU. At the cost of the true ninja tracker spirit.
