Announcing the winner of our New Zealand Music Month competition: Remix the sounds of New Zealand
‘Bird call’ is the winner in our remix the sounds of New Zealand competition. Shayne Burrows, of New Plymouth, made the track from bird song on the DOC website, remixed with his own music.
The competition was perfect for Shayne who has always been interested in music and birds – he even uses kokako as his avatar on Twitter and as a logo for his work.
