1The challenge

What this is. What it isn't.

Optional

A side quest alongside the contest. Enter it or don't. Your remix entry is exactly as strong either way.

Zero effect on the judging

The contest is judged blind, on the remix alone. Promotion is never a score. This challenge is only about the clips.

Bounties go to winners

Every 10-day window has winners. They get the bounties. Nobody gets paid just for posting, and we say so everywhere.

Why SKIO is doing it

Most producers never learn how to promote a record. This is a friendly push, real guidance, and a reward for the ones who show up.

  • 01The rules and the view bars for a window are published before it opens. They never change mid-window.
  • 02Reads happen at a fixed time, from the platform's own count. Top contenders may be asked for their analytics.
  • 03Every winner goes on the wall with the clip, so you can see what won and why.
  • 04Paid by PayPal within 14 days. One most-viewed win per producer per window; Radar and the sound prize are separate, so there is room for a lot of you.
2Who wins what

Two bounties every 10 days. One at the end.

You do not need a big account to win. You need one clip that clears a bar, or one idea our Radar likes.

$0
at 2,000 views

$300 at 5,000. The most viewed registered clip wins, every 10 days.

$0
The SKIO Radar pick

Every 10 days. Taste, not views: the best idea, the smartest campaign, a sound other people use. Reposted to 200K+.

$0
Most-used sound

Once, Nov 8: the remix sound used in the most videos. Every real video on it counts, whoever posted it.

Post on day 1 or 2

Views are read 5 days after a window closes. A day-1 clip collects views for 15 days, a day-10 clip for 5.

Day 115 days
Day 105 days
The money goes to the window winners, not to everyone who posts. One most-viewed win per producer per window; Radar and the sound prize are separate. Money nobody wins pays extra winners the next window: the next most viewed clips that clear the same bars.

Views are read from the platform's own count. The Radar pick pays every window; under 10 registered clips the $200 rolls into the next window's pot. Paid by PayPal within 14 days of each read. Windows 3 and 4 bars are confirmed before each opens. Money still unwon after window 4 is not paid out.

0Tonight, no drop needed

"Dua Lipa's stems just landed"

The one clip you can post before you have a drop. It counts in the current window. Here is the whole clip, frame by frame:

0 to 3 seconds
Dua Lipa's stems just landed
DAW open. Hook text on screen with the app's own text tool. Your vocal chop plays under your drums, not the dry vocal alone (that can get muted).
3 to 11 seconds
Your 8 bars
Cut to what you built, even if it is a loop and a kick. Drop or vocal chop first.
Last 2 seconds
"Full remix on SKIO"
Text on screen, then post, tag, register. Done.
✦The honest case for doing it

You were going to post it anyway. Make it count.

1

It costs you 10 minutes a day.

One clip, 29 seconds or under, and a 30-second form. The hooks, the caption and the game plan are written for you below.

2

A 400-follower account can win.

The Radar pick is taste, not views, and it pays every window: under 10 registered clips the $200 rolls forward, never cancelled. And the first view bar is set where a small account can reach it.

3

If it pops, the right people see it.

Every clip tags @dualipa and @warnerrecords. SKIO reposts the Radar pick and puts what moves in front of the Warner team in the window report. Attention, not a promise.

4

What you learn, you keep.

How to launch a record on short-form: naming a sound, seeding it, posting on a schedule. You'll use it on every release after this one.

5

Prove you're ready for the moment.

Labels notice producers who can move their own record. This is the rehearsal, with a bounty on it.

4Toolkit, free

Five plays that are working right now.

Real reels from producers promoting a remix this month. The lesson is in the caption as much as the video: ask the artist, give viewers a job, name the viewer. Tap "Use this" to copy the Training Season version.

Reels belong to their creators, shown as examples of the play. Not affiliated with SKIO or the contest.

Show all 20 hooks for the clip itself

The one rule: the drop or the vocal is playing on frame one, hook text on screen, no intro, no logo, no "hey guys". 7 to 12 seconds loops, and a loop is a second view. Tap a card to copy its hook.

Hooks 16 to 20 adapted from @musicbylukas, who analyses thousands of Reels for DJs and producers.

Your caption, done.

Search reads captions, and "dua lipa remix" is a real query. Pick your genre, copy, post. Pin the second block as your first comment.

How a 400-follower account plays it.

    

      
Day 1
Your best 8 seconds on TikTok, Reels and Shorts, one form for all three links. Pin a comment: "Use this sound. Full remix on SKIO, link in bio."

      
Day 2 to 3
Two more hooks on the same sound. Reply to every comment, three of them with a video: a video reply is a free second post.

      
Day 4 to 6
Check which clip won its first 3 seconds. Make two more like it.

      
Day 7 to 8
Stitch (TikTok) or Remix (Reels) a viral Training Season edit, the gym and glow-up edits already carry millions of views, so your drop lands in front of their audience. Last post by day 8, then let it ride.

      
Every day
Post 6 to 9pm your time. Answer comments within the hour. New window, new format, same sound.

    

    
Get your sound used. Market it like a label.

      
    
        
  1. Sound origin first. Your first post on the sound is the audio everyone else gets. Make your day-1 hook video with text on screen and no voiceover: its audio is the sound. One post does both jobs.
    2. 
        
  2. On TikTok your video's audio becomes a sound by itself; on Reels tag it as original audio. Name it Training Season (YOUR NAME Remix).
    3. 
        
  3. Build the sound from the drop, the most transformed part, not the vocal-only section. Matched audio gets muted, and muted videos cannot be counted.
    4. 
        
  4. Nobody uses a sound with 0 videos. Seed it yourself: 3 different clips on your account, then ask 5 friends to use the sound. 10 uses in 48 hours puts you on the sound page.
    5. 
        
  5. Give people an idea: glow-ups, gym transformations, relationship and sports edits already get made with "Training Season". DM 10 edit pages the sound link and offer a repost.
    6. 
        
  6. Paying a creator? They switch on the paid-partnership label. Real views count however you get them. Fake numbers do not: bots, bought views, junk accounts. We may ask top contenders for their analytics.

?Questions

    
The fine print, in plain words.

    

      
Do I have to do this?
No. The Share Bounty Challenge is optional and has zero effect on the contest, which is judged blind on the remix alone. Skip it and your entry is exactly as strong. It exists because most producers never learn how to promote a record, and SKIO wanted to give a friendly push, real guidance, and a reward to the ones who show they are ready.

      
Does everyone who posts get paid?
No. The bounties go to the winners of each 10-day window: the most viewed registered clip (if it clears the view bar), the Radar pick, and once at the end, the most-used remix sound. One most-viewed win per producer per window; Radar and the sound prize are separate. Money nobody wins pays extra winners the next window, the next most viewed clips that clear the same bars; money still unwon after window 4 is not paid out.

      
Where do I register a clip?
At the bottom of this page, in the form under "Register your clip". Every "Register a clip" button on this page scrolls you there. One form per clip, every platform link in it.

      
Is this allowed with Dua's vocal?
Yes. This is an official Warner Records remix contest, the stems were licensed to you for it, and short clips of your own contest remix on TikTok, Reels and Shorts are covered by the contest terms. Build your sound from the drop, the most transformed part: a clip matched to the original can be muted by the platform, and a muted or removed clip cannot be counted.

      
Do I need to show my face?
No. Most of the 20 hooks work with the DAW on screen, a phone on a desk, or text over the drop.

      
My remix is 20% done.
Post hook 0, "Dua Lipa's stems just landed": your vocal chop for 3 seconds, then the 8 bars you built. A work in progress counts, and it lands in the current window.

      
Alts, fan pages, friends, paid creators?
All count, as long as the clip uses your own remix and you register it yourself, with the email on your SKIO account, whoever posted it. Paid creators switch on the paid-partnership label. Bots, bought views and junk accounts do not count.

      
What is the Radar pick?
Our favourite of the window: the best idea, the smartest campaign, or a sound other people are using. Taste, not views. It pays $200 every window and we repost it to 200K+. Under 10 registered clips, the $200 rolls into the next window's pot.

      
How are views counted, and when do winners get paid?
From the platform's own count, read at 11:59pm PT five days after the window closes. Top contenders may be asked for a screenshot of their analytics. Winners are paid by PayPal within 14 days of each read. One most-viewed win per producer per window; Radar and the sound prize are separate. Winners are responsible for any local taxes. Void where prohibited.

      
What does not count?
SoundCloud posts (welcome, but outside the challenge), unregistered videos, videos over 29 seconds, videos that use someone else's remix, and anything muted or removed before the read.
