Win $10,000 and a Release On Ninja Tune With Tracklib’s Sampling Competition

Sampling isn’t just a music-making technique—it’s a legacy that has shaped the evolution of electronic music. 

Celebrating more than three decades of this transformative art form, Ninja Tune and Tracklib are calling on music producers to write the next chapter. And the stakes are potentially life-changing with a $10,000 cash prize and an official release on Ninja Tune up for grabs.

The collaborative contest comes as part of a broader homage to sampling’s rich history in electronic music, highlighted in a comprehensive, 30-minute sample breakdown video produced by Tracklib. The video explores the evolution of sampling from the underground hits of the 1990s to the club anthems of today, spotlighting the likes of Daft Punk, The Prodigy, Skrillex and more.

For those who’ve dreamed of joining the ranks of artists like Bonobo, Jayda G or Bicep, now is your chance. Aspiring producers can submit their entries for free for a chance to become part of the Ninja Tune legacy.

Alongside the cash and record deal, the winner will receive a Lifetime VIP Max Subscription to Tracklib, granting them endless access to samples to fuel future creativity.
