Creative Commons, Warner Bros. Records, and Machine Shop Recordings, are proud to present the Fort Minor Remix Contest, starting today at ccMixter. Fort Minor — the hip-hop project led by Linkin Park vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Mike Shinoda — is offering the separated audio elements of its hit single “Remember the Name” online under a Creative Commons BY-NC license, so that people all over the world can easily and legally create remixes of the song.

The producer of the winning remix (as chosen by Mike Shinoda) will be awarded a new Technics SL-1200MK5 turntable, courtesy of Warner Bros. Records and Machine Shop Recordings.
