THE MERCER VIRUS: A BIOMECHANICAL BASS MONSTER BUILT FOR DESTRUCTION
Most underground remix contests play it safe. Mercer Virus does the opposite.
Vehemence and Externator’s collaboration is a weaponized slab of biomechanical bass music — all serrated metallic noise, industrial atmospheres, asymmetric automation, and deathstep-grade aggression. It’s a track built from processed debris: grinding mids, hydraulic pressure drops, mechanical jitters, and a deliberately atonal, dystopian framework.
This remix contest pushes producers into territory where technique outweighs convention, and where creativity is measured in how far you can distort the organism without killing its identity. If you’ve ever wanted a contest where brutality, experimentation, and extreme sound design aren’t just tolerated but expected, this is the one.

RemiEXS tracks dozens of remix contests every month.
Most are EDM-oriented, melodic, predictable, and built around clean pop structures. Mercer Virus is none of that.
Here, the stems are raw biological code, and your job is to mutate them. That makes this contest uniquely attractive for producers working in:
Instead of chord progressions and top-line vocals, you get abrasive textures, shock-value transitions, and enough mid-range gristle to sculpt an entirely new creature.
For many producers, this will be the first remix contest where industrial bass vocabulary is not just allowed — it’s the competitive standard.

Across his aliases, he maintains an entire multiverse of extreme sound:
This breadth explains why Vehemence is uniquely suited for a remix contest: he has spent years transforming other artists’ tracks into unrecognizable biochemical hybrids. Now, the roles are reversed — you get to dissect his. ABOUT EXTERNATOR (SHORT OVERVIEW)
Externator appears as a complementary force within the collaboration: a producer leaning heavily into rhythmic violence, mechanical phrasing, call-and-response structures, and the high-pressure percussion typical of minatory bass.
While less documented online, his fingerprint on Mercer Virus is clear: sharp articulations, dark atmospheres, and the kind of metallic syncopation that pairs naturally with Vehemence’s spectral sound design. PRIZES — MONEY, MENTORSHIP & EXCLUSIVE MATERIAL
