No Nevermind Remix Contest
The Gear Addicts Show is stoked to announce the “No Nevermind Remix Contest” with Sir Mix-a-Lot and Outtasite. We wanted to kick Episode 4 off with something really fun, so Sir Mix-a-Lot gathered this killer track from Rhyme Cartel artist Outtasite. The basics of the contest are easy: Download the stems, make something creative, upload it to SoundCloud, add it to the “No Nevermind Remix Contest” group, and post it on the Gear Addicts Facebook Page. All submissions must be posted by midnight, Oct 31st, 2013 PST.
The Prizes
We are very proud offer some fantastic prizes by our sponsors Focusrite, IK Multimedia, Novation, Presonus and Guitar Center. The best remix will be awarded our home studio package including:
Focusrite iTrack Studio
iTrack Studio features the precision iTrack Solo computer audio interface and a studio condenser microphone letting you record instrument and vocals simultaneously via the iTrack’s superb-quality Focusrite mic preamp. A pair of accurate monitoring headphones is included, along with a mic cable and device link cable to connect your iPad; record both channels with Tape, Focusrite’s beautiful free recording app for iPad
Novation Launchkey Mini
Launchkey Mini is an instrument for iPad, Mac and PC. It has a mini-keyboard, eight knobs and 16 three colour velocity sensitive ‘launch pads’ so you can control your software as well as triggering loops and samples.
Launchkey Mini can be used as a keyboard / DAW controller so you can get hands-on control of major music software such as Pro Tools, Cubase, Reason, Logic, FL Studio and Ableton Live. The eight knobs (pots) can control your software’s mixer using Novation’s ‘InControl’ technology. The 16 launch pads are velocity sensitive so can trigger drums and samples as well as launching clips and scenes in Ableton Live.
Presonus Eris E5 Studio Monitors
When mixing music you want a pair of studio monitors that will accurately reveal the truth about what you’re listening to, and the Eris series from PreSonus are designed to do just that. With its 5? Kevlar low-frequency transducer, the compact Eris E5 sports a 45W, Class AB amplifier; and a 1-inch (25 mm), silk-dome tweeter powered by a 35W, Class AB amplifier. It can crank out a clean 102 dB SPL, peak. Frequency response is rated at 53 Hz to 22 kHz. For a studio monitor in its size and price class, that’s impressive.Thanks to well-designed Kevlar® low frequency transducers, low-mass silk-dome tweeters, responsive Class AB amplification, and professional acoustic-adjustment controls, Eris delivers the goods.
Presonus Studio One Pro
Studio One is an integrated approach to recording music, from tracking to mixing to mastering and distribution. It’s a creative environment built for intuitive use, speed, and efficiency–and yet it’s robust enough for the most complex productions.
Studio One employs a state-of-the-art audio engine that delivers incredibly clear, accurate sound. Studio One Professional features a 64-bit floating-point version of this audio engine that automatically switches between 64- and 32-bit operation on the fly to accommodate 32-bit plug-ins. This means you always get the highest possible sound quality and blazing speed. Studio One Artist and Studio One Producer feature the same audio engine but it always operates in 32-bit mode.
IK Multimedia T-Racks CS Grande
T-RackS CS Grand is a comprehensive, high-quality mixing and mastering plug-in suite that provides a versatile set of sonic tools for sculpting individual tracks and full mixes. The package includes T-RackS Classic and digital modules, spot-on vintage gear emulations, and our Quad series of mastering-quality multiband processors.
IK Multimedia Amplitube 3
AmpliTube 3 is the world’s leading Guitar and Bass tone-creation software. Period. No other software product in the music industry even comes close to the selection, performance and overall sonic accuracy when it comes to creating guitar and bass tones with a computer. Now, that’s a mighty big mouthful of brag, but a wise old country gentleman once told me, “Hey, it ain’t bragging if it’s true.” Here’s how we back it up…
In addition to the grand prize, two other winners will be selected to receive a copy of Presonus Studio One Professional.
The Song
Outtasite, who’s given name is Michael Singleton, is an artist, performer, producer, and broadcaster from Seattle Washington. Outtasite began his career in the entertainment business, recording demo’s and doing spot shows opening for national acts in the Pacific Northwest. After several years of hustling to stand out in the local scene, Outtasite was hired to back up Hip-Hop legend Sir Mix-A-Lot during live shows. Shorty after, Outtasite made his national debut in 1996 on the Sir Mix-A-Lot track “Funk4 Da B.L.V.D.” alongside fellow members of his group “The Elite”.
Rhyme Cartel artist Outtasite‘s track “No Nevermind” is a high energy, crossover track that features heavy down-tuned guitars with a catch pop hook and modern hip-hop sensibilities.
