Following up two iterations of their ReConnect online festival, Beatport has now launched the landmark Producer Challenge. The competition is already underway, and producers can submit original unreleased music up until May 11.
Moreover, this was made possible by partnering up with Loopmasters, LANDR, iZotope, and Roland Cloud. Beatport’s CEO, Robb McDaniels, spoke out on the strategic partnership.
“Since beginning our strategic partnership with Loopmasters in 2019, we have wanted to harness the full power of our respective audiences to give producers around the world access to a unique opportunity to exhibit their skills. Combining the power of Loopcloud and Beatport’s industry-leading curation, along with other great companies in our industry such as LANDR, iZotope, and Roland Cloud, we are able to give producers the platform they need to showcase their talents”
