Hey everyone,
I know some of you will be interested in this :)
Easy
I'm a producer / engineer, in a professional studio in North London, where I have lots of fun bringing my clients' ideas to life. (http://alturl.com/25db4)
Every month I'm trying to do my bit for the scene by _giving away a day at the studio_ to someone who really deserves it.
All you have to do to win it is write an email telling me what you'd like to do with the studio time. I pick a favourite answer from each month's entries and book a session in with that person right away, no catches. (challenge€hattrixx.co.uk, fix the €, obviously)
Your email can be:
* Your idea for a track:
Just describe what kind of elements you'd put in there,
we'll spend the day putting the track together (any style).
* What you'd like to learn:
Describe what you'd like to learn to do, then tell me how
you'll use your new skills in future productions.
I'm looking for people who are perhaps creative, ambitious, original, interesting, or maybe just funny. All levels of experience welcome. Have a go, you never know who I'll pick. Please spread the word for me.
Best of luck.
Owen...
P.S. Clients include a number of big acts, such as Judge Jules, Simon Belofsky (of Sonique fame) and others.
P.P.S. Kit list boasts analogue synths and effects units.
P.P.P.S. I've only done one give-away session so far (last month) and the track is already signed. |

| It's a very nice studio, I can't afford a ticket out to London but if I could I'd be all over this. I've never worked in an actual studio, it'd probably be a really good learning experience for me. |

| internet whining needs to fade out like mc hammer pants (if you're still wearing MC hammer pants today than you don't need to read on). this is a really cool concept especially considering you're not getting paid for your time which is how someone like you makes a living. i think anyone in the area should apply and keep applying, i've learned the most from working with others and it's the reason "crews" and other groups of people are collectively successful. |

donk song but more donks.Also , I would like to take the entire tune down one semi tone to really give the donk the gusto it deserves. Also , during the break, I would like to modulate up a major 3rd via A french 4/3 chord resolution showing the versatility of how the donk can in effect be an expressive thematic paradigm.
Just an update, I've just been contacted by AnjunaBeats and they made a generous offer to commission this endeavour. I do apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused. |

Just a quick update from Hattrixx :)
Since my original message last month I've had lots of fun reading the new entries that have come in. There were many great submissions and I think I've picked the winner (I've only just emailed the person for confirmation).
A few people asked questions about my background, kitlist and so on. Please see the links at the bottom.
Just a few words of general advice for entrants:
* It's not essential, but humour helps.
* You don't need an idea for a track AND what you'd like to learn, either or will do.
* You can only enter once a month, but you can enter monthly (enter this month to win a session next month).
* Regarding originality: you don't have to reinvent the wheel, but I'm not so interested in covers / rips / remixes.
Again, good luck! Nice one for spreading the word.
