Produced in conjunction with our mates at Rdio.
To celebrate over a decade’s worth of crazy good Laneway lineups (seriously, go remind yourself here), we’ve teamed up with our music streaming life partners over at Rdio to give one lucky person + three mates the festival experience of a lifetime, and all you have to do is make a mixtape for us.
To enter, head to rdio.com and compile your ultimate Laneway themed playlist (give us at least ten tracks to listen to), then share the link with us in the comments below with a quick blurb as to why you think it should win. To the mixtape master goes 4 x general admission tickets to Laneway in their chosen capital city, an exclusive backstage tour of the festival, one 12 month subscription to Rdio Unlimited and a billion trillion internet points.
But hurry, entries close December 12th.
To get you thinking here’s one we prepared earlier:
