General

Ok, for anyone joining us for the first time, we here at the site have been running an ongoing contest of sorts, whereby interested parties submit their own remixes/mash-ups of Shadow material. Runners-up get a link to their work via Soundcloud, and the best of the bunch receive free stuff from us here at the site. So then we started thinking...should we make an official DJ Shadow Remix CD? In other words, a CD compilation of the best remixes? What do you think?

We're opening it up to you. We'd like to hear your thoughts about how YOU think it should be. Is it worthwhile? A waste of time? We have done a fair amount of thinking on the subject, and have decided the following:

1) It should be free. In other words, we're not going to charge for it...HOWEVER, since we have to pay to have it made, we would probably have to make it free with any physical order (ie, a CD, vinyl, or clothing). We're not trying to lose the farm here.

2) It would be exclusive to the site...not available in any store.

3) YOU should decide the track listing...with a couple of caveats. We would have to limit the CD to anyone from the past (or immediate future) that Shadow has or will select from the Remix Project entries. In other words, you can't get a bunch of friends to vote for something we never chose to highlight. Shadow has volunteered to assemble the tracks in a musically appealing order.

4) YOU should design the cover. That's right...time for you graphic designers to get in on the act! Not since the infamous 'logo contest' of 2001 have we offered a forum for graphic artists, so here's your chance (that is, if we all decide to proceed).

So now it's time to voice your opinion. If this doesn't interest any of you, then we won't do it. But it would be cool to do...right??
Let's get this conversation started!!
