Trap icon Ookay is giving fans and producers a huge holiday surprise this week with the official launch of a remix contest for his timeless hit ‘Thief‘. Partnering with decentralized music platform Audius, Noiselab, and the popular rave-focused Peaking Podcast, Ookay is inviting the community to flip one of his most iconic tracks that has made such an impact on the industry. The remix competition is open now and runs with submissions due by March 1 (giving producers plenty of time to craft their entries over the holidays and into the new year). To make things more personalized and transparent, Ookay will be going live on Twitch throughout March to stream himself listening to remixes and announcing the winners in real-time. Expect raw reactions, feedback, and that signature Ookay energy as he sifts through the entries. So if you’re down to put your spin on the sax-driven trap anthem that blew up the scene years ago, this is your shot. Head over to Audius to grab the stems and submit—let’s see what the next generation cooks up. Additionally, Ookay dropped his full-length interview on the Peaking Podcast, diving deep into the story behind ‘Thief,’ his production process, career highlights, and more. It’s a must-listen for any fan—check it out here for the complete episode packed with insights and behind-the-scenes vibes. To supercharge the contest, Ookay is teaming up with FL Studio and other major brands for promotion, exclusive prizes, and even a special “Thief” merch line. The standout collab? A partnership with FL Studio where Ookay is releasing an official demo project pack. When users boot up the DAW, the full stems for “Thief” will auto-load right on the screen—letting producers dissect exactly how the track was built, explore the layers, and jump straight into remixing. On the prizes front, it’s all about community: While there will be top placements, Ookay is expanding distributing rewards to a wider pool, including honorable mentions for standout remixes that deserve recognition. This inclusive approach ensures more creators get shoutouts, merch, software goodies, and other perks to foster that real family feel in the scene. For prize details click here.
