For the 2020 version of “Sunlight”, DJ Sammy was looking for young talents to remix the track. Over 50 aspiring producers took part and mostly delivered great interpretations of his hit. Now the Mallorcan star DJ and employees of his MyClubroom label have determined the three winners after intensive listening. The winners of the contest were the Digital Rockers with their remix. Kai Sheen came in second with his version. Third place went to Svenj with his “Walking On Clouds Mix”. All three versions are now being released as a Remix EP on MyClubroom Recordings.
