AirDrop Watch Contest

8 01 2008

Thank you all for your responses to our posts and joining our group. We will be launching our first piece of art merchandise under the AirDrop label. We have decided to create watches that will feature established artists from around the world; however, we have decided to also make an open call to the public for submissions to be part of the project. Please forward this to anyone you think could be interested in participating!

This is a small project which is meant to bring art to the wrist and for that reason we do have to choose a very small number of designs. The design behind the watch must be compatible with the AirDrop brand. We will release 10 watch designs the first year which can only be purchased in specific locations. This is part of the reson why we must be extremely selective.

AirDrop is looking for designs that are fun, modern, youthful, artistic, eye-catching, witty, minimalist, anime-like, etc. The subject can be completely random or can draw on particular themes that go well with the ideas behind the label whether it be electronic music, music in general, bands, the name airdrop, water, culture, etc… )

There is $$$ for the artists selected! But more importantly there is the prestige, recognition and honor of being part of the label and project.

We have a file that you should be able to modify and enter your own design. The file can be downloaded at:

We look forward to reviewing your designs.

Best of Luck,

AirDrop



Mp3Clash

7 01 2008

We have just launched a new site for mashup artists and fans named Mp3Clash. Mashups became popular with the notorious Grey Album that mixed Jay-Z’s Black Album with the legendary White Album by the Beatles. The reason for the increase in popularity is partly due to the advance in technology for the digital editing, mixing and recreating of music. I love music and many times I feel an urge and desire to experiment putting two (or more) songs I love together. Unfortunately, I am still practicing and perfecting my own skills, but have found more experienced DJ’s and musicians who have created some pretty amazing mashups. One of my personal favorites is by DJ Earworm who mixed Zdarlight by Digitalism with Feel Good by the Gorillaz with a featuring from De la Soul. The result is pretty explosive from beginning to end. Join the mp3clash network (for free) to listen to the track and keep reading our blog there.
