In anticipation of their The Remix of the Remix LP, planned for a fall release on Free News Projects/ToneArm Records, Plastic Little are holding a remix contest in collaboration with the folks at Turntable Lab. The contest's title? The "Remix of the Remix of the Remix of the Remix Remix Contest".

Judges of the competition include Ghostface Killah, Hot Chip, Diplo and his Hollertronix partner Low Budget, Spank Rock, and Plastic Little themselves.

The members of the Philly hip hop group are currently offering two a capellas that feature eight bars each from Ghostface Killah, MF DOOM, Spank Rock, Amanda Blank, and Plastic Little MCs Pack of Rats, Jon Thousand, and No Body's Child via shesmature.com.
