The label's working day started as usual: reading & responding to emails, checking the news, planning new projects while listening to SoundCloud's Dashboard new sounds. Suddenly the new single track 'Kill Me' by one of the labels artist Anton Lanski appeared on the playlist. It was definitely my first choice to start the working session with.
Anton's production has its own unique touch, and if you are familiar with his sound you will definitely recognize his track while going through prodcasts or radio sessions. Anton's 'Kill Me' groove was so catchy, that I've decided to contact him immediately & requested to sign the track. As i have already been thinking to do a remix competition on Etoka Records, Anton's single was just right for this new label's idea.
It's been 2 months since we've started the competition, and, i have to say, we have received such a great response from so many fascinating artists from around the world, making nearly 40 remixes in total. Each remix has something special, and choosing the 4 winners was an extremely hard job that took days for Anton to decide. Big thanks to everyone who took part in this competition.
