“We are pleased to partner with Trap Nation in our next BPM Create remix contest. Trap Nation, as well as Lowly, are always ahead of what’s new and fresh on the electronic music scene, and we are excited to see what kind of remix magic will be done with Henry Fong’s track ‘Boom’ with samples from BPM Create’s extensive library,” said Angel “AROCK” Castillo, Founder and CEO of BPM Supreme.
Trap Nation is one of the fastest-growing YouTube channels with more than 28 million subscribers as of 2020. Its independent record label, Lowly, was launched in 2016 and focuses on releasing indie and electronic tracks, as well as breaking new, creative, and underground artists.
“At Lowly, we have been looking for a credible source to service our extensive catalogue to the DJ community and we believe we’ve found that with BPM Supreme. The DJ community has great influence on music trends and it’s important that they’re aware of the catalogue we have. It’s all about trying to find the right audience with every song and the global reach BPM Supreme has greatly helps this,” Benz added.
The Boom Remix Contest is BPM Create’s second large remix challenge posed to fans, following shortly after partnering with T-Pain’s and his label, Nappy Boy Entertainment, the “Wake Up Dead” Remix Contest. The two-time Grammy Award-winning hip-hop artist and record producer helped to celebrate the launch of BPM Create, the online sample library by BPM Supreme, with this contest back in August of 2020.
“It’s awesome to see the full range of music producers from amateur all the way up to professional put their creative touch on my track. That is what music is all about,creating what feels right to you. That’s why I love sites like BPM Create, that help inspirethis new wave of producers,” T-Pain said.
