Earmilk is proud to announce a new remix competition for Parachute Youth’s debut single "Can’t Get Better Than This."  Last year we teamed up with Warner Music, one of the world’s most recognized and accomplished recording companies, to give artists the chance to remix Kimbra's "Settle Down."  It was one of the biggest competitions of the year and launched young artist BYRAM onto the world stage.  

This year Warner Music and Earmilk have teamed up with Wavo, the social network for music, to do it even bigger and better.  In anticipation of Parachute Youth's upcoming debut album we're challenging all the bedroom-producers to put forward their best remix of their cult smash "Can't Get Better than this" — Already a #1 hit in 5 countries.  

The winner, judged by Parachute Youth and A&R scouts from Warner Music, will see their creation receive an official release on Warner Music accompanied by a proper servicing campaign, a full scale feature on Earmilk, and marketed across the entire Wavo network.  Listen to the track below as well as some of the awesome official remixes.  For complete contest details, read on!


Powered by Wavo.

ABOUT THE TRACK: First aired on Australian radio in early 2012, ‘Can’t Get Better Than This’ quickly developed into a major international hit. The single became Triple J’s most played track of the year as it reached Gold status and received over 10 million views at YouTube. In the UK, support has already come from Pete Tong, Annie Mac and Friction at Radio 1.

Combining influences from the likes of Depeche Mode, Joy Division, and the Stone Roses, and infused with elements of contemporary house, ‘Can’t Get Better Than This’ is an mesmerizing, feel-good track that has seen support from some of the industry’s best. With it’s unique, incredibly catchy vocal hook we’re expecting the competition to produce a collection of creative remixes across the board.  Pre-order the Track here
