I entered with my sideproject Defensatrix a Remix Contest of DEPECHE MODE in 2009 (Beat Portal website) . Honestly we were around more of 1000 remixers and at the end of the Contest i was number 140! People and remixers were selecting the best remixes, i received great feedback, the winner was selected by the Band (the rules of the Contest)
