Latino Saint vs. Spyder Remix Contest


From the Judges

Dustin Michael (Experimental Division Nashville), Lewis Davidson (Technorganic Recordings), Latino Saint, and Spyder would like to personally thank all the artists who took the time to give their input and submit remixes for this contest. There were way too many remixes that made it into our “Best Of” bin, and making a decision on the top 10 took forever. And finally – we have made the decision – here are your winners for the “Latino Saint vs Spyder” remix contest!

About the Artist

Tyler Ramos a.k.a. Latino Saint
The world of Hip-Hop has a rising contender within its ranks - taking the stage with an unparalleled voice and a skill that commands the utmost attention, Latino Saint continues to battle his way through the vicious gauntlet of the American Hip-Hop underground. Over the past 12 months, Saint has won extraordinary credits and awards such as: taking 1st place in 2004 on VH1’s Save The Music Foundation “Song of the Year” website in the Hip-Hop/R&B category, and being hailed and noted as “Performer of the Year” and “One of the best albums of 2004” by XPOZ Magazine. Latino Saint and his “La Familia” have performed with world-renowned artists such as Snoop Dogg, LL Cool J, B2K, Fat Joe, G-Unit, Chingy, Bubba Sparxx, and many more.

Latino Saint’s new album “Half-Breed” is available online and through the Experimental Division Nashville imprint.

Derrick "DJ Spyder" Murph
Emerging from the massive Florida Breakbeat scene during the 90’s, Derrick Murph began crafting his skill as a DJ early in his professional career - But it wasn’t until the turn of the millennia that the dreadlocked DJ discovered the sounds of Drum n Bass were calling him home. Since his new life in Drum n Bass began, Derrick has become a member of many organizations and labels such as Technorganic Recordings, Hot Wax Recordings, VSL 1200, BWSS (Big Worm), and many more. His credits include performances with Panacea, DJ Craze, Dieselboy, AK1200, Sage, Marco, and Aphrodite, and his current hit single “Make Some Noise for the DJ” is topping the DnB charts and getting rave reviews.

As with most Experimental Division Nashville remix contests, anything goes. But, keep in mind that Technorganic Recordings is looking for the hottest, hardest, most ruthless Drum n Bass and Breakbeat remixes to be pressed and released on vinyl. Will you be able to make the final cut?

Contest Content Help


No Links? If you do not see the "zip" links to the contest loops, it may be because you are running firewall or security software with Ad Blocking turned on. If so, please temporarily turn it off and the links should appear.


What is the .acd file in the sample remix? The .acd file is an ACID project file that contains a sample remix made from eight to ten of the contest loops. It can help you learn how to use ACID, or give you ideas about remixing the track. You don't need to use it, but you'll at least want to download the sample remix so that you get the loops.


Can't open the ACID project file? The ACID project file (.acd file) is in ACID 5.0 format. It can be opened in ACID 5.0, but not in previous versions of ACID. If you using a previous version of ACID and you wish to view this file, you can either upgrade or download the current version ACID XPress in the Tools area of this page. However, you do not need to view the .acd file to enter the contest. You can simply use the loops in any version of ACID or in any other software.
