Fans of electronic music can try their hand at remixing exclusive tracks from Tiësto and Digitalism, plus cuts from Holy Ghost and five more hot artists on SPINshapemix, a new, free app for iPhone released in conjunction with SPIN's October Dance Issue -- both of which are out today.

Developed in partnership with Shapemix [2] , the app allows anyone, regardless of musical skill, to use a visual interface to manipulate any of the eight tracks, tweaking the BPMs and adding effects, then sharing their creations via Facebook, Twitter, or other social media.
U.S.-based residents who upload and share their mixes are eligible to win a trip for two on the electronic dance music cruise, Holy Ship!, which will feature a live set by SPIN cover star Skrillex. Upon posting, mixes are automatically entered into the contest, and listeners can vote for their favorites on the SPINshapemix chart [3] . The ten best mixes will be chosen by a team of SPIN editors, and the winner will be announced by November 30.
SPINshapemix joins the award-winning SPIN Play iPad app among SPIN's offerings for iOS devices. "SPIN Play was a key moment in our digital evolution; letting fans listen to artists as they’re reading stories about them," said SPIN editorial director Charles Aaron. "Now, the SPIN dance app takes that one step further, tapping into a sound that’s ruling the cultural landscape, and letting users create tracks to share instantly with their friends."
