The Prize Cart Remix Contest ♻️
HQ invites creative and musically-inclined minds to add a special twist to the official theme of the Prize Cart jingle.
The Prize Cart is THE mobile Electricology Store where motivated fans can earn instant prizes as the stages close down every night. As closing sets end, the Prize Cart arrives in style rolling to the tune of The Prize Cart Remixes, bearing gifts for those who lend a hand and help keep the site clean.
The Prize Cart Remix Contest was born in 2018 when the String Cheese Incident’s Kyle Hollingsworth wrote the original Official Price Cart Theme, meant to alert the Forest Family that The Prize Cart has arrived. Long-time Forest Family member XLP was so inspired by Kyle’s catchy tune, they created their own remix of the theme. Impressed by XLP’s creativity, HQ has hosted the Prize Cart Remix Contest ever since.
In 2023, HQ invites creative and musically-inclined minds to add a special twist to the official theme of the Prize Cart jingle. All are invited to take their own approach to the Prize Cart theme song – remix the original as a DJ, as a full band, or create your own original version – get creative!
Winners will receive Wristbands to the festival and hear their version of the Prize Cart theme song after closing sets each night.
