Aberu Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) From MS.com We’ve been calling it a premix contest: the “Linkin Park Featuring You” contest on MySpace has now come to a close, and we have a winner. No joking around this time…our winner is: NoBraiN!!! His real name is Czeslaw (his nickname is Chex) and he’s an English teacher from Swidnica, Poland. I had an amazing conversation on Skype with him, where I told him the good news. Video of that is coming soon. As I’ve said before, the quality of the MySpace remixes were amazing–even better than we had expected. Thank you all for your music and your votes. I’ll be giving away a full list of the top 20 finalists here on mikeshinoda.com shortly. In a couple of days, you’ll be able to hear the real thing: our new single, “The Catalyst,” comes out on MONDAY. But until then, go HERE to listen to NoBraiN’s winning track, on the Linkin Park music player. Edited July 31, 2010 by Dmitry Quote
A_Savage_Jedi Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Just listened to it, and it's..... well interesting.... Quote
Xero21 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 The intro with the text-to-speech is cheesy, but other than that this is really great. He synced the vocals in an off way, but made it work by using the long "noooo" at the end of the line. Creative. Quote
Numbrocker Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Dunno how I feel about this. Too "electronic" for my tastes. In the middle of the song I thought my computer had froze or something. lol. Really didn't like the intro, but the rest is ok. It's cool that's he's an English teacher from Poland. I got the weirdest mental image of one of my English teachers trying to do a mix. Congrats Chex. Quote

I have heard much better remix songs.. Quote

I don't know exactly how LP were going to do it, but they mentioned that they might fly the winner to a studio to make a more complete version of the track (i.e. put Chester into it). Not sure if they'll do that though. Quote
Pez Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 I dunno but the on thing I don't like is te vocals are out of sync, and that annoys the crap out of me. Quote

Perhaps they wanted the winner to be something that fit in nicely with the rest of the album. Quote
lerkid Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) WTheck? first few secs are like O.o not bad after the first few mins. Edited July 31, 2010 by lerkid Quote
GraDoN Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 i enjoyed it for the most part. And you people act like attention seeking kids when you come in saying "OMZ I LIKEZ WANTEDZ TO POST FIRST YOU BEAT ME!!!!" Quote
Killerbarbie Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 I'm sorry, but imo this really sucks. I like electronic music, but this is something I wouldn't listen to more then once. Congratulations for the winner, but I don't want this in my library. On the other hand, I got a remix from someone and that is one hell of a remix and it was on repeat for several days Quote
Yass Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 1418th Place in the Contest!!! I dont like this one too much... Quote
LPsoldier0303 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 I wanted Alex to win personally. I dont really mind this remix because I feel it fits what LP is doing with this record Quote

I think his version would have fit with the rest of the songs on a Thousand Suns better. This dude's version is alright though. Quote

jakolp Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) I really like this version.. I think he won 'cause he didn't use all the stems and those that he used, he changed them a lot.. Maybe that's what they were looking for.. Also it has a really cool electronic touch and I'm thinking that's what the new album is gonna sound like Congrats NoBraiN!

LPsoldier0303 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Ha! this rules. Give Her/Him hell Alex! Quote
