The Music Prompt: Add to or Remix Nico Segal’s Musical Composition.

This is your chance to create a collaborative song with Nico Segal, inspired by the question “Who inspires your creativity?”. Nico created a brand new musical composition for this project designed for you to collaborate over. Download his song, download the song stems, or duet his TikTok so you can work with the composition. Then add your own touch through vocals, rap, new instrumentals, or even remixing it. You can match the style of the original composition, or you can incorporate a style that is completely your own. You create the final piece of music by adding your contribution!

Submissions due: December 31, 2022

How to collaborate with Nikko:

  • Download the musical composition as a final song, download the song stems, or duet Niko’s TikTok linked below

  • Add to the composition in your own way: Add vocals or rap, remix the song, add an instrumental solo or addition to the song. The possibilities are endless.

  • Upload your completed song
