Altec Lansing  presents the ‘Mix It Up’ dance contest, an online video dance battle for all dancers, especially for b-boys and b-girls.

To participate, download music from www.mixdancecontest.com, mix and edit the tracks.

Then record a 60 second video of yourself and post it at the Mix It Up website for the public to vote.

The top 100 videos, as voted by the public, will win an Altec Lansing MIX digital boombox, worth over £250.

The grand prize winner will appear in dancehall artist Beenie Man’s music video plus $2,500 cash.

Luc Ackaert, EMEA Marketing Director of Altec Lansing, says: ‘Altec Lansing makes products for people who love music,”

‘What better way to share this love than through the power of dance? We’re thrilled to have our new MIX speaker system play a part in this contest that celebrates the roots of street dance and the retro boombox.’

Judges include Chamillioniare and Robin Dunn.

Voting ends on November 20.
