Prize for IDMf Beat Battle 100!!!!

The IDMforums (www.idmforums.com) Beat Battles have hit their 100th battle, which is being celebrated by a netlabel release on IDMf. However, we (the Beat Battles collective) would like to sweeten the deal a little, by further providing a Teenage Engineering PO-16 Rhythm to the winner!

However, as we are simply a loose collective of beat makers and sample splicers, with none of us really earning any money from any of this, we need funds to be able to provide this prize!

The OP-16 Rhythm goes for $59 on Teenage Engineering's site, and shipping is about $16 (depending on where its being shipped, but as Teenage Engineering has many different places to ship out their stuff, it seems we should be able to ship it within this budget for whoever wins).

The 100th Beat Battle, or BB100, should be underway here soon, and should last 6 weeks, so we'd like to secure the funds within that time (by July 12th). Funds will be used towards the OP-16 and shipping and handling to the winner.

So we're not asking for a whole lot. If we can just get a few people to pitch in $10 or so, we'll be closer to having a cool incentive for winning the battles, and celebrating keeping the battles going for so long!
