Thank you, and congrats again Azandr!
Enter remixes on a trial period before committing to paid membership.
The 4 week trial membership allows producers to use the platform and take part in remix competitions before they decide whether to commit to a subscription. That's a great entry model and shows commitment by SKIO to potential members.

Thanks Ian, that's exactly the idea: try the platform, enter a contest, and see if it's for you before paying. One small note for anyone reading: the free trial runs 14 days, which is plenty to download the stems, remix, and submit. Good luck with the remixes. Zohar, co-founder
Skio is a great platform for music producers.
Skio is a great way for music producers to get the stems of great songs and participate in Remix competitions with real prices and release opportunities. Especially when starting out this is a great opportunity to improve your skills and be a part of a producer community. And after coming 3rd with my latest Remix I can confirm that the prices and contests are real.

I’d like to thank Skio Music for the great experience. I achieved second place in one of their contests, and I received my prize immediately, which included a wide range of VSTs and instruments to enjoy.
It’s true that I initially encountered a few issues with some of the instruments. However, thanks to the excellent support and feedback from Zohar, as well as the responsiveness of the plugin and VST developers, I was able to resolve everything quickly and efficiently.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with the experience and the quality of both the platform and the support. I definitely recommend giving Skio Music a try.

Delays & nonsense
The judging process of the remix competition just kept getting delayed and delayed, and when the winners were announced it made 0 sense, definitely something weird going on

Reply from SKIO Music
Hi Sander, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. The delays are real and I won't pretend otherwise. Here is the honest reason: humans actually listen to every single song. Our A&Rs review and rate each submission, then the label and artist pick the winners from a shortlist of the strongest tracks. That human process is also why announcements sometimes slip past the dates we set, and as a small team our communication about those delays occasionally takes longer than it should. That part is on us and we are working on it. The winners themselves are real and public at skiomusic.com/contests. Zohar, co-founder

I've been on Skio since 2017.Music production and remixing in aprticular is my main hobby. Never been on the site with certain expectations or ego...And still, after unexpectedly hitting a third place on there and subsequent release, I ammassed over a quarter million steam on spotify alone. Just goes to show that even a die hard bedroom producer with no dreams can achieve big things there. Have there been tech issues here and there. sure. Do they get fixed, always. is everything perfect? no, but they keep working to streamline the site and processes. Did it swap from a fully free to paying model. Yes. but running a business costs money and for the joy I'm getting out of it, the connections I'm making etc. it is very reasonable. Happy user here

Being harassed on their website! SKIO don't care
I'm being harassed by users on there leaving rude and uncalled for comments on my tracks, I've contacted support multiple times but never heard back from them.. they just let users harass other members, and write whatever they want to abuse people.

Hi, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. SKIO is one of the most positive and supportive producer communities I have come across anywhere, the overwhelming majority of what happens on the platform is encouragement. We are not in the business of policing every comment, but if someone is genuinely being rude to you, send it to me at zohar@skiomusic.com and I will take a look and see if something can be done, no promises.

awful. I keep trying to log in to cancel membership but it won't let me in without first verifying my email... they email my email address with the code many hours later at 5am... they've done this every night for the past three nights so I'll try through the day tomorrow at work to see if I can get it to send within a better timeframe... I've also started receiving scam calls from international numbers since signing up... It could be a coincidence but I doubt it...

Hi Martin, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. I looked into your account when I saw this. The real miss was on us: when you hit the login snag in August 2025, you should have had a fast answer, and instead your messages sat for too long. When a login or verification issue comes up, the fix on our side is simple, we manually restore your access, usually within a few hours, and if anyone is ever charged while locked out trying to cancel, we refund it. In your case no payment was ever collected, the only attempt failed and the subscription closed itself. If you ever want back in, email me at zohar@skiomusic.com and I will set you up personally. Zohar, co-founder

Hi Bailie, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. This reply is far too late, and the first thing I owe you is an apology: you wrote to us on July 24, 2025 and no one got back to you. That was on us, no excuse. I also want to clear up the part that frustrated you most, because it is actually good news: your remix was not removed from the Teddy Swims contest. A submission made during the trial stays in the contest, gets listened to and rated by our A&Rs, and is still eligible to win, even without a subscription, we cover that cost ourselves. What changes without a subscription is that you lose access and your tracks stop being visible to other producers, but the entry itself stays in the running. We have even had winners whose subscription had lapsed, and since winning comes with a subscription they get reinstated and their remix goes back up as a winner. So your entry was not wasted. I have also written to you directly. If there is anything I can help you sort, I am at zohar@skiomusic.com. Zohar, co-founder
Dont waste your music on this scam site, go somewhere else.
They are running organised remix contest scams, where you need to pay to gain entry.
As an experienced musician I listen to all entries and I can tell you that the top 3 winners are shocking in comparison with the rest of participants.
How "this track name" can even make it top 1?
I dont know whats going on with this company, but something smells not right. Stay away.
Look who won Hardwell contest, a popular youtuber!!! WTF, Wildcrow won! why is allowed in the contest anyway? Smells...

Hi, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. Losing a contest you put real work into stings, and I won't argue with that. But two things. First, you do not have to pay to enter or to win: a remix submitted on the free trial stays in the contest, gets rated by our A&Rs, and is eligible to win. And paying is not the factor anyway, most entrants in any contest are subscribers, so a subscription is clearly not what decides a winner. Second, on this result the facts are public: 645 remixes were submitted, Hardwell himself reviewed the shortlist and picked the winners, and all three are named at skiomusic.com/contest/hardwell-remix-contest. Wildcrow is a working producer who has had Hardwell and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike support before this contest. Having an audience does not disqualify someone, the remix has to stand on its own, our A&Rs review every entry, and the artist chose it. Play count and likes do not count toward winning. For context on the scale of this, we have run 400+ contests over 13 years and awarded $1.5M in prizes to producers. Zohar, co-founder

Once a good site years ago
Once a good site years ago, is now just a milking farm to take your monies for little or no return.
The comps are dubious, to say the least, winners with 2nd-rate productions. Some of the winners are very sketchy.even after you pay you still need to pay more to get the whole stems pack, after reviewing other reviews on here, it is plain to see this site is a con and and a stain on the music industry with their robbing practices and rigged comps, avoid, so much tech out now you can remix any tune you want and can avoid these clowns

Hi, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. Two things you raised, straight on both. On stems: every member, on the free trial or paying, gets the essential stems needed to make a quality remix, plus a contest to enter. Some contests also include premium stems, which can add polish but are not required for a strong remix. The subscription covers more contests, those premium stems, and using SKIO beyond the trial. You also do not have to pay to be judged or to win: a remix submitted on the free trial stays in the contest, gets rated by our A&Rs, and is eligible to win, we cover that cost ourselves. We license official stems directly from real labels, and that model is what makes it possible. On winners: our A&Rs listen to every single submission and rate it, then the artist or label picks the winners, which we publish in full at skiomusic.com/contests. You are free to disagree with their taste, but the judging is real. We have run 400+ contests over 13 years and awarded $1.5M in prizes to producers, the opportunity here is real. Zohar, co-founder

These people are wack ass hucksters
DON'T PAY FOR SKIO!
Honestly they are a scam, like 5+ years ago when it first came around they actually had some decent tracks available for remixing - not alot but some. Now it's all just a bunch of artists that nobody ever heard of, that also are kinda like mids quality - esp with regards to like lyrical content.
Also, if you do actually register for an account and pay for that shit, whenever you decide to stop paying for the subscription they cut you off completely - so like all the credit and shit that you might have built up over time is just gone. Such BS, complete hucksters.

Hi Allen, Zohar here, co-founder of SKIO. Straight answer: download and boost credits are part of an active subscription, so they end when the subscription does. We are upfront about this, there is a warning before you confirm cancellation, the failed-payment emails spell it out, and it is in our FAQ. Boost credits, for clarity, are about boosting your visibility to other producers on the platform, they have nothing to do with how contests are judged. On the catalog, every stem is licensed directly from the label or artist and we add new ones constantly, so it is worth another look. Zohar, co-founder
