Because label Freshly Squeezed are offering up the stems of Swing Ninjas’ jaunty My Belle for all comers to have a go at. Actually that does sound a bit like the other kind of swinging after all doesn’t it? Although, truth be told, if you’re on a remix tip you don’t even have to be a

KRAFTY KUTS: Instant Vibes present ‘Work That Body’ remix competition (2013)
Work That Body – it’s a popular song title: Diana Ross, disco diva Taana Gardner, Michael Jackson and US/ Okinawan Beni Orashiro have all used it. Oh and Krafty Kuts.

TOO MANY Ts: ‘1992’ video + remix competition (2013)
Rating:
Strutting round lighting cigars off wads of bank notes, and bragging about how great they are? Contrary to expectations, not a bunch of braying investment bankers from the city but rather a pair who are inevitably going to end up being called the UK Beastie Boys.

Yes, this is the second slice of jazzy action today on monkeyboxing.com. Don’t worry – we haven’t come over all contrapuntal – it’s simply a means of pointing out a way to remedy the nigh-omnipresent ‘j’ word this week – in other words supercool Italian label Record Kicks are running a remix competition. Now’s your chance to do the decent thing with Ray Harris’s Scaramunga – details below (N.B. COMPETITION CLOSING DATE NOW EXTENDED to 31st MAY). If it was up to me – I’d slow the bpms right down, jack the drums and bass right up, chop up the hook and find a rapper somewhere – Q-Tip say – to lay down some verbals – Native Tongues style.
