Were I can find the winners of this contest???
thank you!

EasyStevie said at 3:40pm on Tue, January 26, 2010
THis contest is a big joke ..
Did you ever think about how much money they make from it?
I bet like over 100 times of what they pay for the awards (if they pay for it
at all).
Fuck beatport, they killed quality. ( i bet their mastering engineers are deaf)

djnippa said at 8:27am on Wed, December 02, 2009
@ Freefly07.
Are you joking?
The best mix should win, no matter who produces it.
The winners are all too similar in my book, and lack variety, energy and
drama. The mixes I have played out from this competition and that all work
wonders, and get a huge crowd reaction are Audio Pimps, Volt & Watts,
Amurai.
THIS COMPETITION IS A DISASTER, AND PROBABLY FIXED.
1. Badly chosen Winners. 1500 entries, from all around the world, and the
top six are all terrible....!
2. There seems to be only one judge as there is no variety in the 6 runners
up.
3. The initial voting system was a joke.
If any of the top six winners were any good, I’d be more than happy with
the result. They should have tried to pick one winner from each category.
House, Trance, Electro, Breaks, Minimal, Techno, etc

FreeFly07 said at 7:42am on Wed, December 02, 2009
In my opinion it is a good thing that these were the winners. Let’s not forget
that this is a contest for up-coming DJ-s and not for professional DJ-s. To
see that some pretty simple remixes had won, makes you believe that they
were made by normal people, on a simple computer with some softwares,
and not by a professional DJ with a studio and very expensive equipments.
So this brings hope to any wanna-be DJ, that he can do a remix and win the
contest, and not some guy who is already a DJ with many releases and a big
experience.

Jack O'Lantern said at 8:57am on Sat, November 28, 2009
The winning remixes are completely and utterly disappointing!
Banal, boring and predictable!
Are Beatportal trying to convince us that these are the best of 1200 entries?
Ridiculous!
No wonder there is such poor interest in the latest Yello remix contest,
people are beginning to see through the deceptive façade of Beatportal.
A bit like those phone sex lines, advertising beautiful, sexy, semi naked girls
at the other end of the phone, while in reality they are most likely fat, ugly
slobs, sucking on a cigarette, who can fake a sexy voice…
...Beatportal give the impression that they are a large organization of music
professionals with a wealth of experience and knowledge. Judging from the
choice of winners in recent remix contests, it would seem that behind that
apparently slick & professional Beatportal website, lies a shoddy and
understaffed third rate outfit of acne ridden kids who know next to nothing
about music and use these remix contests to promote the music of friends
and people they know!
djnippa said at 3:09am on Fri, November 27, 2009
HATE is a strong word. I’m also please the voting cheats didn’t get a look in.
What I can’t understand is where are the remixes supposed to be played.
They have nothing exciting happening in any of them. Club they wouldn’t
work, Radio ... maybe at 6am on a deep depressing dark show.
CLEARLY ALL CHOSEN BY ONE PERSON. If they’d been chosen by a group,
they’d be a lot greater variety. It’s bollocks.

Valters Boze said at 2:34am on Fri, November 27, 2009
I dont like the winner remix, I hate electro house. But I have to admit that
the track is done professionally.
My favorite is Terentievs remix.

You call it depressive? I`m glad that the spammers with their electro
booming tracks didnt make it through! :D

djnippa said at 2:30am on Fri, November 27, 2009
Just listened to all the runners up remixes.
Fuck me, some ploddy, depessing, slow, minimal, boring, dull tracks.
All very similar, which makes me suspicious that they were chosen by one
person only, who likes it depressing.
All the tracks would completely fall flat in a club, and make you want to tune
out on the Radio..... so much for having a Feeling........ that tonigh’ts gonna
be a shite, shite night.
