With over 3,500 remix submissions, Tiësto and the teams over at Musical Freedom, Atlantic Records, SPINNIN Records, and Beatport have selected the top five tracks from the challenge.
Back in March, Beatport partnered up with dance music icon Tiësto to present a once-in-a-lifetime remix opportunity for budding producers everywhere.
The Dutch superstar’s two-part release, “The Business Pt. I” and “The Business Pt. II” (featuring vocals from Ty Dolla $ign), is hands down one of the biggest dance music tracks of the year. To celebrate this massive tune’s success, Beatport, Loopmasters, LabelRadar, SPINNIN RECORDS, Musical Freedom, and Atlantic Records joined forces for what has easily been our biggest remix challenge to date — with a total of 18,000 people downloading the stems and 3,500 track submissions.
After sorting through all of the submissions, Tiësto and the various label teams have selected the top five remixes. Meet our winners and check out their tracks below!
