there is no way to download the stems! D:
oh hai matt
:3
hai matt
Yeah you can, you download them from the soundcloud attachment on the page 🙂
Hello Mortar! 😀
Cant wait to hear your remix already haha
No DL link for the stems! FIXPLS.
No stems no remix! lolol. Srsly tho, can’t wait to fuck this shit up.
Stemz!
is ur EP out yet?
Yes. K100 going in!
Death
Limited Edition Firepower Boom Urchin? God damnit…I want that..
Woah, the stems are kinda weird. Says they are 140 yet they don’t match up when I put them in my DAW.
yeah, these stems aren’t 140. they’re 144, as far as i know
Yeah, I got it. Thanks 🙂
Can you collab on this?
Is there midi files?
soooooo uhhh how about actually separating the synths perhaps? can’t do much with a stem that’s pretty much the song without vocals and some chords >______________<
Yeah I’m looking down the same barrel. Kinda dissappointed with Protohype. I expected better.
no offense but if you guys were boss that wouldnt much matter, make up your own leads and shit, GET CREATIVE, You got the vocals and the bass and thats all you need for a remix!
i only used the voice and the choir, don’t need to have much ^^
Trololo all I used was the vocals….
yo anyone know the key and or scale this was written in??
gmin
Is it optional how much of the provided stems we use? Or do we like have to only work with the stems?
I tried to upload and i got this message after my email? I never submitted anything prior to this submission….
This field requires an unique entry and ‘gdubz.bassface@gmail.com’ has already been used
did it still upload?
whats up with the vocal? theres some weird phasing or something going on, and its not dynamic at all…
Yeah, these stems are not good. The quality is sort of abismal.
Lol, please stop it with “quality” of stems. Master your remix and see the difference. Max don’t give stems with mastering. Please think one second
but they are mastered…..
Key and or Scale?
i’d say about 145 (hand made tap)
youre close, it’s 144
Gmin I think
https://soundcloud.com/andrewamisola/protohype-fly-andrew-amisola I uploaded a preview of what I have so far, check it out!
I uploaded a preview of my remix, feedback would be nice: https://soundcloud.com/andrewamisola/protohype-fly-andrew-amisola
mediocre bass. sounds like a noobish tune… hahaha
if I pay will you release mai tunes on firepowah??? lol
Can’t wait to Remix it.
Remix Submitted!
Awesome, remixing this is dope, thanks for the opportunity people
im going hard in the paint on this remix but seriously whats the note progression on the baseline, dont want to sit here for hours doing it by ear but i guess theyre arent too many notes to choose from and i like shortcuts, might have to call in the big guns,
btw its not 140 its at 144 and the key A#Maj
its actually Gmaj 😛
Not according to my key detector. but maybe thats why my synths and leads were sounding off. Even tried autotuning her voice and still sounded weird. I’ll try G Major. Lets hope your right.
Key detectors are not 100% accurate. More like between 40%-50%. KeyFinder is the most accurate IMHO and is free. It stacked up to 72% (did same 100 songs with MIK, KF and RE) against teh competition.
Just finished/submitted.

Mine is up! Feedback welcome.

^_^
Yeah… About those complaining about lack of stems…. You are just plain lazy…
the lack of stems limits the remix’s potential to be a remix
The only stem you need is the vocal if you know even a tad of synthesis…
https://soundcloud.com/mrslydubstep/protohype-fly-mr-sly-remix Please give me some feedback on my remix 🙂
Mine is up https://soundcloud.com/pretivi/protohype-fly-pretivi-remix Feedback appreciated
bpm and key???
144, G Major
what’s the policy on soundcloud previews?
“must not have been previously published, released or distributed in any form”
So it’s not even allowed on soundcloud?
no
Okay
yes it is… Its saying you can’t take a previous song/remix and post it as something new
Oh i guess I’ll put mine on then
“for anyone doing the fly remix contest, don’t upload anything to soundcloud. datsik and i are reviewing every submission one by one, and the winner will be chosen from those who haven’t uploaded anything to SC. if you have already, don’t worry about it, just take it down.” – Protohype
…from protohypes facebook page…you be the judge
Mine has been removed off of all sites, hopefully I’m not disqualified.
Well, if I’m disqualified then that’s really stupid. I don’t have time to go on facebook and check to see that. All rules should specifically be stated on THIS page. Not on a social network that not everyone wants to waste their time on.
agreed
Damnit, I wish I would have read this, I uploaded mine on SoundCloud… I’m out I guess ha.
So did I 🙁 https://soundcloud.com/sethserden/fly-stiddo-remix
What tempo and key is the track in?
The quality of the stems is really bad, Protohype, what happened 🙁
Work with what’s provided man, I’ve already heard a few great works so far. I’m can’t wait to wrap mine up! Thanks Protohype
just finished mine up..

well just turned mine in… https://soundcloud.com/distortionbassprod/protohype-fly-distortionbass
Vocals sounds like a dead whale, but nevermind…
I asked ’em on twitter, and they said that you WILL BE disqualified if you put the entire track up 🙂
HI! Sorry I’m a little confused with the rules. Do we have to use all three of the remix stems or just at least one? When you mean ‘third party content’ so samples that are purchased or downloaded or OK (mainly referring to drum kit sounds)?
Whats the bpm to this song does anybody know? it would really help me out
144

Hmmm you guys take any genre of remix? like mines just bass really allow the hype
it seems people havent entirely read the guidelines.seen a few remixes new on soundcloud.
does it have to be mp3 or can it be wav
The entry form requests a 320kbps MP3 only.
Has our remix from AUSTRONAUT been submitted?
Here’s mine! Feedback welcome!! https://soundcloud.com/dubbynature/fly-protohype-dubbynature
Deadline says August 2nd @ 11:59 PST, and its August 1st and i was going to submit my remix but it says “Submission period has now ended”?
I know right???!!!!! I am freaking pissed right now and I can’t stand this. Someone (Firepower Records) needs to reopen it right now!! I felt sooo confident in my remix and now I’m not even going to get to try and submit. I’m pissed off and can’t stand this. It’s ridiculous, and I really really really hope that they open it up again. Firepower better be reading this right now 🙁
The form is back!
Wtf?!!! Why is the entry form closed?????!!!!! Please open it again! Its 7:44, August 1st, and it says that all entries must be submitted by 11:59 PM on Aug 2nd, 2013. PLEASE OPEN IT AGAIN!!!! PLEASE
The form appears to be live again.
Please open up the entry form. 🙁
The form is back again!
What Music Maker Said, please! I just came on here to submit my remix and the form was gone – I also tried sending it through SoundCloud, but have no idea how/if that even works and who will get it.
The form appears to be live again.
CHeck out my entry. If you like hard dubstep https://soundcloud.com/dirtyviolence/protohype-fly-feat-alina-renae
You should take that down. Anyone who puts their remix up on SC won’t get their remix considered as a winner. 🙂 Just recommend you take it down now
are you all fucking retarded?..serious legit retards. TY Firepower/Protohype for the sik comp..GL to all, next time STFU and spend the energy you spent bitching on yer remix, if you didnt like the stemz..do your own re-master big brains…BUNG!!
Hey guyz,i uploaded my remix it it`s 100% complet.i sow that,but there is still “Uploading Remix.. Please Wait”
What should i do? 🙁
i dont know they got my remix or not
Hey guyz,i uploaded my remix it it`s 100% complet.i sow that,but there is still “Uploading Remix.. Please Wait”
What should i do? 🙁
i dont know they got my remix or not
when using a .wav file, i noticed that it would not upload. I instead bounced my file as an mp3 and it uploaded just fine.
Submitted!
Hope you guys at Firepower Records like my remix… s/o to Datsik and Protohype. Love y’all, enjoy 🙂
-PK Fire-
Best Luck to everyone!
Thanks and yourself 🙂
My file won’t fuckin upload.. I’m pissed
Checkout my dubstep on soundcloud!!! https://soundcloud.com/dubbynature And goodluck with your remixes!
Check out my remix and download for free via my SoundCloud,
https://soundcloud.com/brodubmusic/protohype-fly-feat-alina-renae
Thanks guys.
you gonna be kickout of the remix 🙁
Why is that? Was there something I missed in the guidelines?
I am so confused with this contest……I just posted my remix on my soundcloud
I took mine down off of SoundCloud, I doubt it matters. Probably already got kicked off. I thought it just could not have been previously posted on SoundCloud, meaning I could not take someone elses mix and put it as my own. I was not aware that I could not put my own… Guess I will upload it again when the contest is over.
Best of luck to everybody still in the contest.
Nvm! It’s been removed!
im assuming even a small vine/instagram video clip is a negatory?
I posted my mix on the third of august, am I kicked out or not??
Not sure where I was supposed to put my remix so I just put it on soundcloud : I really hope it gets through…
https://soundcloud.com/sethserden/fly-stiddo-remix
you know the contest ended on the second of august?
Yeah, I was just really busy during the week of so I didn’t get the chance to submit it
All this waiting is killing me
Good luck to everyone and thanks for the opportunity for a such a sick remix comp FP and Protohype!
https://soundcloud.com/dubbynature
https://soundcloud.com/koreshok/fly-kor3shok-remix That’s what boos remix should sound like.
Good luck everyone. may the most kickass remix win XP!
I only uploaded my final mix/ master as a *wip* … is this qualified? as well will you guys require a possible final mix/ master upon your choices?! 🙂 thanks dudes
* by upload I mean, uploaded to SC* I submitted a earlier mixdown!
Some of the questions on here are ridiculous. I uploaded my remix after the closing date, is it still in the running?…I uploaded my mix to Soundcloud after they clearly said not to..is this allowed? and now the best one…I uploaded my mix as a work in progress is this ok? or does the remix need to be finished? haha. No they will wait a a year until you finish it….Seriously wtf!
now that it’s all over, here’s my remix if anybody would like to check it out.
https://soundcloud.com/n2dr/protohype-fly-ft-alina-renae-n
all feedback is appreciated!
id also like to hear your remix’s as well
Congrats to the winners! Here’s my remix if anyone is interested in checking it out…Enjoy!
