Minneapolis, Minnesota – March 1, 2011 – Zivix LLC, a developer leveraging innovative technology through peripherals, real musical instruments and software, revealed today that the JamParty: Remixed demo is now available for download on Windows PC. Music fans everywhere now have the opportunity to try Zivix’s groundbreaking sandbox music game and audio creation tool for no cost.

“After the recent and inevitable demise of the ‘status quo’ in music games, the outpouring of support from musicians as well as fans of music-based games has been overwhelmingly positive for our entirely different approach to the genre,” said Chad Koehler, VP of business development and operations, Zivix LLC. “We’re injecting a whole new element here that hasn’t been properly done before which incorporates actual music creation and sharing in the social space. Fans everywhere are now able to experience JamParty: Remixed for themselves with this free demo.”

JamParty: Remixed enables anyone to become an instant producer, mix-master, and lead guitarist. Players can transition their mastery of traditional rhythm-based music games into actual player-controlled live music creation using JamParty: Remixed’s gigantic library of chords, beats, vocals, and soundscapes. Users can create and play songs, then share their music with other players as MP3s or upload to listening devices and social networks.  JamParty.com features a new community that allows for a profile and hosting of your favorite MP3’s with a direct connection to share on Facebook. Within this community, players can find additional downloadable music, tips, tricks, and cool videos. 

JamParty: Remixed is designed for use with the soon-to-be-released Peavey® HeroMaker digital guitar, a revolutionary full-size real electric guitar/game controller with real strings and frets, and is also compatible with existing USB supported Rock Band® and Guitar Hero® guitar controllers as well as with your mouse and keyboard. With millions of guitar game controllers across the globe, players finally have a new use for them directly on their PC!

Why should listening be passive? JamParty gives artists and fans a musical connection deeper than stereo. Fans engage in the music as a virtual instrument in real time.  JamParty redefines a new relationship to the music. Bands, artists and musicians will have the ability to create music for JamParty and submit it for sale in the DLC store. This is the first step in marrying up the music fans with their favorite artist where they can now interact and participate with the music instead of just listening.

The full version of JamParty: Remixed includes the following features:

• Over 40 exclusive tracks known as “Jams” at the ready

• 11 unique interactive venues that respond and react to the music

• Multiple Play Modes: Live Play, Studio Mode where players can create and perform their own Jam, and Performance Remix

• Full Scoring, Medal, and Achievement System

• Each Jam has over 33 Million Loop Combinations

• Top Genres include: Rock, Alternative, Pop, and Techno

• Save and share your very own MP3s

• Accessible for everyone from Beginners to Intermediate, Advanced, and Pro

• Learn song structure, beat and rhythm

• Full USB support for your gaming console’s Rock Band® and Guitar Hero® controllers plugged straight into the PC

• Full Online Community: JamParty.com – More music, charts featuring top user created MP3’s and the hottest DLC, host your MP3 creations and share to Facebook

JamParty: Remixed is available now for purchase through JamParty.com as well as at retailers nationwide everywhere games or music gear is sold. Players can also look forward future editions of JamParty coming later this year to home gaming consoles everywhere.
