We realised it would be impossible to pick a winner from all the contributions to our remix opportunity, so we’ve enlisted the esteemed Radio DJ Adam Walton whose alternative BBC Radio show here in Wales is jam packed with eclectic and ever changing sounds from the best new Welsh artists mixed with exciting new music from all over the world. To say he has a wide taste in music is an understatement, so who better for the job??

As it is such a mammoth taste to ask someone to undertake, we’ve helped by picking our favourite 5 for him to choose from. Even this was hard as it’s almost impossible to compare all the different genres. But we’ve had a go. Feel free to send us your comments and favourites.

Thanks so much for getting involved. Adam will pick the winner in the next few days.
