Individual sounds from popular artists are provided for one of their particular tracks, and you are put to the test to remix those sounds into a new masterpiece against other competitors.

A soundscape I created of the atomic bomb nuclear attacks that took place on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 and at Nagasaki August 9, 1945. The soundscape starts at about a minute before the dropping, and you will hear what happens (or the lack of happenings) afterwards. Read More…
