Electronic Beats music swap

The first half of 2011 has already been very exciting for the Electronic Beats staff: we’ve been to SXSW festival in march, hosted EB festivals in Cologne, Budapest and Prague, brought our exclusive EB Soirées to Berlin, Graz and Cologne – and finally welcomed our shiny new website last week.

But this isn’t the end yet: Electronic Beats Classics will be coming up in fall as well as a bunch of EB Soirées – we’ll keep you posted on this. For now we’d like to mention that we’ll be around at Melt! festival 2011 this weekend, in cooperation with Giovanni’s Eisdiele we’ll be opening our Electronic Beats x Melt! Festival Ice Cream Parlour – stop by for a cupcake and ice cream.

Since this was already such an amazing year, we got our hands on a bunch of cd albums, exclusively signed by the respective artists: Bonaparte, Holy Ghost!, Animal Collective, FM Belfast, Apparat and Modeselektor. You can win one of these limited albums if you already own a copy of the original. Here’s how that goes:

Take a picture of yours showing your CD or vinyl original, send it via email (win @ electronicbeats.net, subject line: ‘CD swap’), tweet it to @EBnet or post it to our Facebook wall and keep your finger’s crossed. And if you’re one of our lucky winners, you could give away your original to a good friend of yours, bringing joy to other friends of great music.

Competition closes friday, july 22nd, 5pm gmt+1. Good luck and thanks for making 2011 a very memorable year so far!
