Shout-out in the Chicago Reader

July 1, 2010

The Chicago Reader’s Gossip Wolf column mentioned the Quantazelle Sample Remix contest. Thanks, guys!

Winners of the Quantazelle remix contest were announced last week by the Chicago laptop jockey herself, aka Liz McLean Knight. The idea behind the project wasn’t to turn a Quantazelle track into Ibiza-grade bubble foam but to make use of odds and sods from the extensive sample library she’s assembled over the years. The winners, production duo Technobears, have previously won remix contests held by Yoko Ono and the Pretenders.

Beanbake’s approach was impressive in that he used only my samples and was still able to put together a cohesive, catchy track. Dark, yet groovy, it relied heavy on vocal samples layered together in interesting ways. Beanbake won a $50 gift certificate to Fractalspin and a Coaster CD.
