In July, Nialler9 in conjunction with the label Quiet Arch and Sea Legs (Ryan Vail and Ciaran Lavery) ran a remix competition.
There were 34 entries to the competition and we’ve now listened to them all and picked the top three which are:
Winner: Rachael Boyd – Belfast
Runner-up: Geno Yanez
Runner-up: Extitude – Belgium
Quiet Arch’s Lyndon Stephens says: “There were four judges and Rachael was a clear winner as she appeared on all four judges short lists , the only one to do so. For all of the others who entered , thanks for entering and feel free to post your remix on your own soundcloud or youtube channel as a few had been asking this.”
Rachael will remix a track from Ryan Vail’s forthcoming piano EP this Autumn and all three winners will receive a copy of Sea Legs on CD or Vinyl. Congrats!
