The How To Make Ruby Remix Contest is exclusive, here on Sonic Academy and you could be in with a chance of winning some cool prizes and ultimately getting a release on Anjunadeep - an independent record label based in London, founded in 2005 by Above & Beyond and James Grant which has grown into one of the dance music worldâs most respected imprints.

Nice, just startet the Remix today morning.
I got a last question: After the Contest is over and the Winner are announced. Can I upload than my Remix on Soundcloud if I havenât won?(I also like to let people free download my Tracks) I just want other people to hear my Remix.
Thanks
Hi there @ARA_Erik_Vetter, unfortunately, you cannot upload your remix - Rule 8 states - Submissions may not be released or distributed for any purposes or through any media whatsoever except by label in its sole discretion.
This was really fun - its my first attempt at a SA remix. The original track has it all so instead of adding a melodic verse I changed it up with the drums. Big ups to Enamour on a hit track - course was excellent. Thank you!
i didnt master mine, i dont know if the label would do this if anyone is successful so i hope thats ok?..thanks for the opportunity, really interesting in how the layers worked in the orginal, definitely makes me think about my future productionsâŚalways learning
The goal is to upload the most âfinishedâ & polished re-mix as you can. You can read in the rules :
Contest Rules
*Depending on the quality of the winning release the tracks will be
released! However, Anjunadeep always have the right to refuse the
release if they feel the quality is sub-standard.
No need to stress though, put it simple : each one should make his remix sounds as good as he can
Now any further mixing/mastering work on the winner track is completely up to the label and the agreement that could be made with the nominee.
So if you think you can make your entry track sound better you should try it, you still have time.
Remixing this track was a real pleasure.
Thanks to Sonic Academy, Enamour and the crew from Anjunadeep for giving everybody the opportunity to showcase their work.
Wishing luck to all the contestants involved.

I loved working on this remix! Iâm a big Anjunadeep fan and I thought the âHow to Make: Rubyâ videos were among the very best production tutorials Iâve ever watched.
A big thanks to Enamour for sharing his knowledge and to Sonic Academy / Anjunadeep for hosting this competition.
Thoroughly enjoyed working on this remix, going to start doing alot more melodic/deeper music under my own name as well as techno shizzle under Bageera guise still. Thanks for opportunity.
Hi, first of all thanks for this amazing course, itâs exactly what Iâve been waiting for. I noticed the close date (22nd 00:00:00), and contest end date differing, can a remix still be uploaded on the 23?
Wonderful opportunity to get such a good course and stems!
First time I entered a competition. I learned so much in trying to make something nice and it even makes me more humble, so much more to learn
Much respect for Sonic Academy, Enamour & Anjunadeep!
Bon chance / succes @ all the remixers

Hi,
Iâm having a bit of an issue and would appreciate some help. Iâm trying to upload the wav file of my remix and itâs not going through. Is there any way to fix this, or is it alright if I upload a 320kbps MP3 file instead?
Been a pleasure working on this remix! Thereâs some great submissions here so far! Good luck to everyone!
Cheers for this opportunity Enamour, Anjunadeep & Sonic Academy!
