Also with this course, we are running yet another fantastic remix competition! - The How To Make Minimal Techno Remix Contest is exclusive, here on Sonic Academy and you could be in with a chance of winning some cool prizes and ultimately getting a release on Mac Vaughn's own label Fierce Animal Recordings.
