<![endif]—> From Kanye West to David Byrne, M.I.A., and Tom Waits, N.A.S.A.‘s Spirit Of Apollo remix program is an amazing opportunity to work with some of music’c most talented artists. With such incredible and diverse material for Indaba members to work with, we thought now would be a great time to teach you some simple ways to use twitter to promote your favorite remixes. And to encourage you to participate, we’ve put together an exciting contest that will help bring much deserved attention to your top picks, and maybe fatten your pockets at the same time.

Anyone who tweets using the tag #IndabaNasaRmx, AND includes a link to either the contest page (http://bit.ly/3IrpuU) or a contest entry, will be eligible to win $500 and a one year Platinum membership to IndabaMusic.com (a $250 value).

But, that’s not all.

For every day that #IndabaNasaRmx is a top trending topic on twitter, we’ll increase the prize by $500… All the way until the pot is worth $2500!

Guidelines:
1. To be eligible to win, your tweet must contain “#IndabaNasaRmx”
2. Your tweet must also contain a link to either the N.A.S.A. remix program page or an entry from the program

Prizing & Winner Selection
When the submission period for the N.A.S.A. Remix Program ends on October 27th at 5pm EST, so will this twitter promotion, and we
will select one very lucky winner at random from everyone who included #IndabaNasaRmx in a tweet. The winner will receive up to $2500 and a one year Platinum membership to IndabaMusic.com (a $250 value).

Here are some specific ways to get involved:

First, head on over to twitter and setup an account. Once you’ve signed up, you can start tweeting:

We recommend using <a href="http://bit.ly"&gt;bit.ly&lt;/a&gt;. Simply go to <a href="http://bit.ly"&gt;http://bit.ly&lt;/a&gt;, paste in the URL you want to link to, then copy and paste the shortened <a href="http://bit.ly"&gt;bit.ly&lt;/a&gt; URL into your twitter post. This will give you more room to write about your remix!</p> <p>Our favorite part about using bit.ly is that if you a &ldquo;+&rdquo; to the end or the url (i.e. <a href="http://bit.ly/3IrpuU+"&gt;http://bit.ly/3IrpuU+&lt;/a&gt;) you can actually see if your link has been clicked on and shared across the internet!</p> <p>If you have any questions, just email us (infoindabamusic.com) and well be glad to help you out!
