Featherlight Contest winner announced!

The announcement was just made via Martin’s official Facebook page and congratulations are going out to Mantra Of Machines on winning the MG remix contest! Martin went over all the submissions, a task he described as both “challenging” and ” humbling” for him, and after the process has put him on the “verge of madnesss”… he has selected the winner. Martin wrote a very personal note thanking everyone for their submissions that you can read below:

“Dear producers, musicians, singers(!), programmers et al. I am deeply humbled by the sheer number of entries and the high standards that were maintained throughout this competition. I congratulate you all! My search to find “the ultimate winner” has been long and challenging. By Tuesday, I had narrowed my choices down to 5 and I thought that I would have a few more listens on Wednesday morning and the decision would be simple. How wrong I was!

Each of my finalists was completely different, ranging from the beautifully ambient to harder, club-friendly bangers. I could have quite easily picked any one of them and been happy with my decision. I listened over and over again until I was close to the point of delirium! How do you choose one winner from such different genres? Now I understand why awards ceremonies have different categories!

I do, however, have to pick one winner. Please remember that this process has left me on the verge of madness! If I have upset anyone, that is my excuse!

AND, the winner is————————Mantra Of Machines“

Have a listen!
