Remix/Re-Imagine New Erin Barra EP “Undefined” via Blend

We couldn’t be PROUDER. Erin Barra, electronic musician/producer/educator/tech-forward-woman-in-audio/resident genius (she writes for SonicScoop!) has just released “Dear John,” the single from her upcoming EP, Undefined.

Interact to the max with Erin Barra’s new single on Blend.

But this goes beyond just a luscious listening experience. The individual stems for the album’s five original songs will be available for listening, remixing and re-imagining via Blend – the NYC-borne music collaboration platform that integrates seamlessly with Dropbox (see our feature on Blend here).

Start by checking out the sharp lead track, “Dear John,” and a remix of it that Barra commissioned from producer prodigy, 16-year-old Kaelin Ellis, available here for pre-release streaming.

You can take it to the next level: Barra and Blend have also launched a three-week-long remix initiative for the rest of the album — the best remixes will be chosen in early May and featured on a user-sourced companion Remix EP, Redefined. The original masters from Undefined, and respective remixes on Redefined will be released commercially in tandem, in June of 2014.

In partnering with Blend for Undefined/Redefined, Barra plans to engage fans and new collaborators — the isolated high fidelity wav files for every master of the EP will be available. While Moby, Prefuse 73 and Plus/Minus have all posted individual song stems on Blend, Barra is the first artist to publish an entire album.

The Brooklyn-based Barra be busy! In addition to the launch of Undefined, she is the creator and instructor of Beats By Girlz, an educational recording arts and music technology program designed to activate creativity in young women that she is presenting at, and with, the Lower East Side Girls Club (more to come on SonicScoop about this!) She also remotely produces and co-writes songs with artists domestically/globally; and is a freelance product specialist for Ableton, recently hosting several Northeast events on Ableton’s PUSH tour.
