DJ Cobra - "M.O.N.I"
Remix Contest
- remix the song and WIN!

August 17th, 2005 - October 16th, 2005
The winners:


Nearly 40 remixers submitted their interpretations of "M.O.N.I" in this first remix contest. We would like to thank all the contestants for their effort. Choosing the winners was extremely difficult, because more than half of submitted material was very, very good. The style ranged from different sub-genres of trance through house, drum'n'bass, electronica, dance to experimental music. We even received one "live" remix :). The CAPP Records crew together with DJ Cobra narrowed the entries down to best 15, and then to final top 5 winners. This process took about 3 weeks. We had so many excellent remixes that CAPP Records decided to release not top 3 but TOP 5 remixes. All TOP 5 remixes become a part of Maxi CD "M.O.N.I" which you can GET here!

Now, without further ado, we are proud to announce our top 5 winners (in no particular order):

1st of TOP 5 "Zheka Uplifting Remix"
"Yevgeniy Bednik aka Zheka, born 1982 in Ukraine, lived couple years in LA, USA. While being a resident at Russian night club, he became interested in producing electronic music himself - he thought that it would truly reveal his true self to the public that he performed to. Trance he produces packs a solid punch, albeit with a distinctly European sound and some very recognisable trance sounds. Total remix, definitely best mix for originality."

3rd of TOP 5 "Gerry V Remix"
"Gerard J. Vargas aka Gerry V. or "The Mad Scientist" from California, USA, is a rising commercial music producer, professional DJ, remixer and film scorer specializing in a wide variety of genres (Hip Hop/R&B, Electronica, Latin, and Pop). Gerry's versatility and technical understanding of classical music theory coupled with his 'perfectionist' view of music production make Gerry's music stand out in a musical era. Gerry's career is emerging at a fast rate after producing remixes such as Arthur Hanlon's 'La Gorda Linda' featuring Tito Nieves, for Fonovisa Records, Darryl D'Bonneau's 'Cry' for Lifeline records and other remixes for European dance labels. A remix with best arrangement, CAPP's favourite."
