AudioShake is one of the startups exploring AI-powered stem separation technology, to turn recordings into stems even if the original masters are not available. What better way to test this out than with a remix contest? And lo, AudioShake has launched exactly that, working with streaming service Audius.

The contest involves stems from a track by US artist Houston Kendrick – ‘Small Infinity’ – which are being made available for fans to remix via Audius. Alongside this, Kendrick is releasing an acapella version of his latest album (also called ‘Small Infinity’) to streaming services, which will act as additional promotion for the contest.
