Soaring melodies fuel a music time machine launching the listener to the top of a world yet discovered. Reminiscent of the early works of Sasha and BT,
My Piano's uplifting melody, combined with a funky, asymmetrical bass line creates a progressive, feel-good vibe on the floor while providing a memorable
hook to take home until you next adventure in club land.

Killer Progressive Tribal House from Spain's BeatFreak Recordings. Dark Iberican beast, dense pulsing basslines, it doesn't get much better than this Black Magic!

../ Experiments In Sound
The Ultimate DJ & VJ Competition
Experiments In Sound to Revolutionize Music Contests
Futuremusic Inc., the cutting edge electronic music company originating
The Next Big Thing DJ Contest, has once again
pushed the entire industry forward with its Experiments in Sound Mix Contest.
Ever the standard for innovation, Futuremusic recognizes the transformation of DJ technology
utilizing non-performance based mixing tools. Previously, Futuremusic has been recognized for offering a premier DJ contest in The Next Big Thing.
Experiments in Sound will be the first contest to accept an all-inclusive array of DJ
mixes, including both traditional mixing as well as computer creations. Experiments in Sound's groundbreaking requirements will
allow submissions using CD players, software, hardware or any other medium the DJ chooses as
long as the mix is 60 minutes in duration. Going a step further, this is also the
first contest that will accept mixes in 5.1 surround sound.
The two Grand Prize offerings will have the biggest DJ/VJ prize package ever assembled
including Alienware computers, Komplete2 by Native Instruments, and other production gear from leading manufacturers. In addition, the
winners of the audio and video mixes will have their work played on national and international
television and radio channels.
Experiments in Sound launches at The Winter Music Conference in Miami, FL and SXSW in
Austin, TX, and will be accepting entries beginning in May 2005. The winners of
Experiments in Sound will be chosen by a panel of industry veterans and performers scoring in four main categories:
Mixing, Creativity, Programming and Quality.
For more information or to submit an offering, Futuremusic has set up a dedicated website:
