Anyone know the deadline?

I uploaded my Benson remix on Youtube. (I hope that's okay....) https://youtu.be/7lmnMJNFk0U [+_=;

Bravo, the official video is just as much a masterpiece as the song. And the Stardust Memories fadeout!!! So many great bits contributed by each of the whole group. Seeing it all come together was truly a treat. Can you guys do this every year?! lol
Josiah Krueger
I wonder who the mystery judge is going to be.... Hopefully it's someone like John Depp or Doug Prishpreed. [+_=;
Jason Revoir
This is my attempt… https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/wvd8H4mVcggdcywp9

I emailed them my version last night. I probably can't compete with you dang hunks but it's still fun to try. "I hope Brown doesn't mind getting damaged cans" - Bag Boy [+_=;
Daniel Johnson
what kind of deadline you guys thinking for remix submission….. just some time before 5/25 ?
Daniel Johnson
i think bpm is right around 86/87 but there’s no click or anything so there’s a lot of push and pull over the course of the song
Christian
I think the BPM is 95... here's my quick little remix: https://soundcloud.com/grayscalemusic/office-hours-live-benson
dru
don't think they played to a click
nick
what's the tempo, team?
Lee Jeans
Not really a sound guy. Would love to see someone do something around Vic’s synth solo and stardust memories on a pile of disco.
BITKORN
Someone please incorporate a DDDIA into their remix
Bill R Tomison
anyone have a copy of the LYRICS handy?
man
relax ya sycophant
bwolf
i cant get enough of benson
Lee Jeans
What a great example of what happens when you just show up and do the work. Obviously it was an enjoyable creative process for all involved, which should always be the focus and as an added bonus, the world gets a bad (great) song about Benson! Great job!

Anybody with Kanye's stem player mess around with these yet?
