Hi Everyone,
I'm a new member here but a LONG TIME fan. I have an iPod full of megaman remixes from this site that are what keep me awake at work most days.
I am a programmer by day but also working on a small indie retro-styled game for iPad/iPhone (and eventually for android and other platforms if we get off the ground). I have done the music for our first project using nothing but iPhone music tools as a bit of an experiment and also a cross-promotional thing.
As part of our Kickstarter campaign, we're going to offer a sound track of the games in-game music. Since its sort of a space/strategy game, the music is very atmospheric and light and we decided maybe we could include some remixes.
I'd like to humbly ask you much-more-talented-than-me oc remixers to take part in a remix contest of one of the game's tunes for the soundtrack.
We're on a tight budget, but we are going to offer a $50 first prize, and will include as many 'runner up' remixes on the soundtrack as possible. The deadline will be June 1st 2011. If anything, we can offer artists some exposure through the soundtrack.
The link below has a zip that contains each audio track, an mp3 of the original track, and a MIDI with all the parts:

I hope people will do this project just for fun! I'm not trying to capitalize of you guys, I have tons of respect for this site, but I thought it could be something fun and
original!
Plus I thought our project might appeal to retro-gamers. If you have any quesstions, send me a private message.
Thanks.
