Hey, potential submitters - just wanted to let you know that I'm revising guidelines for submitting free tracks for the music stream. Previously we weren't taking many submissions that were remixes of copyrighted material the submitters don't own, but we're going to open that up to allow remixes of music that the original artists put up for open remixes. I know artists like BT, Radiohead, Celldweller, etc occasionally put out their song stems for remix contests and whatnot. Those should be fine to post, as long as they are publicly remixable.

When you submit, please link to a website where the stems are available, or some article or place that mentions the stems were once available so we know that the track is cool to remix. Send in some cool stuff! Oh, and send in originals as well!

Really interesting, techy, dark stuff with slick beats here. Cryptovariable himself describes it as, "Flowing, warped hip-hop beats and synths portraying the 'random walk with drift' stochastic process that life often seems to be." Sounds accurate!

Some heavy, dirty electro house coming our way via Belmont. This is a good groove. The only thing it is lacking is a head-bobbin' puppet video.

Heavy, slighly lofi, sidechained big synths - this sounds like an evil ancient robot's boot sequence. Now it will smash you with beats. Watch out.
