Electro-pop duo ROOM8 invited the Blend community to remix their current single “Better Than Music” by sharing the acapella track sung by Christina (a pseudonym for a very well-known electronic pop artist that we’ll leave to your imagination). It inspired a wide array of awesome versions, each created for chance to be on a Yellow Year Records digital release.

ROOM8’s Ezra Reich and Nic Johns were thrilled to see that the vocals were pulled by more than 100 community members for over 20 eclectic new songs. ROOM8 have picked two winning entries created by Victor.VI and Koyuno. Check out their their remixes below:

Chagall spoke with the Blend team about her experience of collaborating with the Blend community. She said, “Every time I received a notification someone downloaded the stems, my heart skipped a little beat! I found it really amazing to imagine my voice being in all those rooms and studios worldwide. My favourite remixes created a completely new musical piece using my vocals in an interesting way. Veera Lummi's one is a shining example of this; all of the sounds in her mix are made from my voice!"

Last Year, I AM SNOW ANGEL invited the Blend community to remix her track “Walking On Wires” which resulted in over 40 incredible remixes.
