Beginning July 9th, fans can download portions of "The Catalyst" and push/pull/stretch it into any shape and form they want in a remixed track that will eventually land on the album and on radio play. That's right - fans will be a part of the next Linkin Park LP - how cool is that?
From their website:
"Beginning tomorrow, July 9th, we’re teaming up with MySpace for “Linkin Park, Featuring You,” a contest which gives you the one-of-a-kind opportunity to be on our new album. We'll be giving you some audio from “The Catalyst,” and you get to take it from there; you can remix the parts, write something over them, or mute stuff and write something totally new. We may choose a remix of the song, and put it on the album…or, we may choose an amazing keyboardist, string quartet, guitarist, percussion group, or other musician, and invite them into the studio to play on one of our songs. No matter what instrument you play, you can win. We're open to anything good. All we ask is that you include any audible portion of any one of our stems in your submission."
Contest details can be found from the Linkin Park My Space page - the winner will be announced before the drop of the debut single.
