So there is some remix competition or some other online "submit your music" competition. You craft together something pretty good. But some random dude with some cookie-cutter uninspiring piece of music wins it. Now, for remixes, what do you tend to do with them?

Hand them out as bootlegs?

Sure.

Somehow bootlegs seem to be the way to go for unofficial remixes. People get a free track and you get free exposure.

either bootleg or rip the vocal out and rename it

This. Make some subtle differences to the lead if you copied that too.

No you didn't.

DJRyan won.

dont compete if you cant win. i came second twice, it was enough for a release both times but no money came from it. edm-industry sucks.

just ditch the comp parts and keep the rest for a new track
