DavidDavid Remix Röyksopp’s ‘Tricky Tricky’

‘Tricky tricky’ remix compEver wanted to take a shot at remixing a track from the amazing Röyksopp (who are, by the way, long-time SoundCloud users)? Well now is your chance.

Yesterday, Röyksopp announced a remix competition for their track Tricky Tricky, saying:

We feel that track “Tricky Tricky” has so much potential, it deserves a life outside the album. Not only is this a chance at beating us at our own game, you also get to mess around with Karin Deijer-Andersson’s (The Knife, Fever Ray) extraordinary vocals! Now, how about that?!?

Yeah! So, what next?

  • Check the original track below and download the raw files
  • Remix Tricky Tricky
  • Submit your remix to your country’s group (Note: the competition is limited to participants living in the following countries: UK, US, Norway, Australia, Germany and France)
  • Spread the word and invite your friends to listen

  • Hey Juan, I understand your frustration about this but unfortunately we didn't define the terms of participation. Here's an info from another commenter:

    "More countries will be coming soon, if yours doesn’t appear just enter the nearest one! http://royksopp.com/tricky-tricky-remix-comp"
  • juanrojo
    Well. My wife it's british. In a couple of weeks I'll be there. How does that sound? Still I wont enter the remix contest. It's a matter of principles. It's a shame coz I know I would do a smashing remix. If you doubt it... check out my releases on beatport.

    sweet dreams,

    juan.
  • tillephone
    yes, you would make the best remix ever of all time. So we can all be glad you're not entering the competition. Thanks! :-)
  • Germans are not allowed to do the Röyksopp Remix? Why not? If so it sucks!
  • Yes, they're now. Röyksopp updated this today.
  • Oh that's great. I'm from Holland, so I cannot enter.

    Long live the information age.
  • Piet, enter the German group. Here's what Röyksopp said on their page:

    "More countries will be coming soon, if yours doesn’t appear just enter the nearest one! http://royksopp.com/tricky-tricky-remix-comp"
  • sirql8
    So no contest for swedes? That sucks!
  • Just enter the Norway group, here's an update from Röyksopp on their page:

  • Sorry - even though Germans can now participate it makes no sense to ignore all those other countries were good producers can give Tricky Tricky a nice spin to their gustos... If Röyksopp fears copyright violation they should perhaps watch to Cory Doctorow's Lecure at Berlin's re:publica '09 http://make.tv/republica2009/show/18685

    It is not important for the music world but for me: I don't will touch Tricky Tricky as long as there are still countries who can't participate. Disregarding sucks!
  • Karim. You can still participate and sign up for the closest country next to you:

  • sirql8
    On Röyksopps own page you can read that you can just pretend to be living in one of the accepted countries. A very weird way to go about I think.

    make your contest worlwide, or are you afraid we kick youl little as**s
  • I just downloaded it and am rearranging my day so I can remix -- so little time left in contest!
    Hey, I agree this contest should be international - meaning all nations and no nation, even if they live on another planet. Music is international and so is internet.
  • QUESTION: Are we allowed to add other stuff to the mix, or just work with the tracks they are providing? Are there rules to this??? if so, where are they?
  • drow
    Never heard of these wankers, plus the songs sucks ass. What's up with her vocals? Did she just learn English!!! No thanks (not that u guys care) but I can make better sounds using the buttons on my cell phone......bitches
  • Upload your cell phone tone song to Soundcloud and let us all listen. I like stuff like that.
  • CONTEST IS NOT LIMITED TO THOSE COUNTRIES: I am copying this off the Royskopp site which says in BOLD that contest is NOT limited to those countries, just enter:

    The competition is not limited to these countries, feel free to download the parts from any of the below pages or directly from Soundcloud. More countries will be coming soon, if yours doesn’t appear just enter the nearest one!
