Dredg - Gavin Hayes (vocals, guitar), Drew Roulette (bass, moog, speak & spell, samples), Mark Engles (guitar) and Dino Campanella (drums, keyboards) - is currently holding a remix contest of “Gathering Pebbles” from their critically acclaimed 'The Pariah, The Parrot, The Dellusion'. It was released June 9, 2009 on their own Ohlone Recordings through Warner Music Group's Independent Label Group.

The winner of the remix contest will have their song sold on iTunes and receive producer/remix royalties, in addition to dredg merchandise and two tickets to any show. They’ll also receive a one-of-a-kind painting by bassist Drew Roulette (who has done some of the artwork for the band’s 'The Pariah' and 'Catch Without Arms' albums along with singer Gavin Hayes). The two runners up will also receive rewards.
