/PRNewswire/ -- SXSW Music Conference -- Easy as 1-2-3 – Starting today, Jackson 5 fans can remix five multi-platinum Jackson 5 songs and win over $6,000 in prizes. Universal Music Enterprises and EMI Publishing teamed up with ZOOZ Mobile, Inc., developers of the first mobile music studio, to launch ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix for Apple iPhone and iPod Touch users. ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix – the second in a series of custom branded ZOOZbeat music apps – features five Jackson 5 signature songs that helped sell more than 250 million albums worldwide in 40 years: "Dancing Machine," "ABC," "I Want You Back," "Mama's Pearl" and "The Love You Save."

"The Jackson 5 international phenomenon started with their first four major label singles on Motown all reaching #1 on the pop charts and the next three years every single they released made the Billboard Top 20," said ZOOZ Mobile CEO & President Scott Geller. "Now, the Jackson 5 will help change how fans experience the Jackson 5 music; by enabling their fans to actively participate in remixing the Jackson 5 music. The new ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix app gives a whole new generation of fans a way to express themselves musically and connect with the Jackson 5 in a personal, interactive music experience."
"The Jackson 5's phenomenal catalog of songs remains as relevant today as it ever was, and we're delighted that fans will now have this exciting opportunity to enjoy their music and interact with it in a wholly new way," commented Eric Shaw, VP of Music Resources at EMI Music Publishing.
The ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix iPhone app works by shaking, tilting or tapping the iPhone screen to create and combine Michael Jackson's amazing isolated vocals with funky rhythmic tracks, and soulful harmonies that can then be uploaded to the web for listening on ZOOZbeat.com and sharing with friends via Twitter, Facebook, and other social media. ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix is accessible to the visually impaired using Apple's VoiceOver feature (available on the iPhone 3GS).
"ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix iPhone app is also the next generation of ZOOZbeat," says ZOOZ Mobile Founder and Chief Technology Officer Dr. Gil Weinberg. "As easy as ZOOZbeat 4.0 already is for anyone to remix music regardless of musical ability, ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix has new ways to make learning how to remix music easier. First, we added a step by step tutorial to show different ways the Jackson 5 beats can be remixed, we also made the music recreation experience more intuitive and richer – including adding more loops and longer samples from the original Jackson 5 songs as well as reverb, filters and other music remixing tools."

Featuring Five Jackson 5 Favorites:

  • "I Want You Back" – sold 6+ million copies worldwide; the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999. It was number one on Billboard Magazine's Hot 100 single chart for the week ending January 31, 1970. Motown Records historian Don Waller called the song, "probably the best pop record every made."
  • "ABC" – knocked The Beatles song, "Let It Be," out of the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1970. It was on the Billboard Magazine Soul chart for four weeks. "ABC" and "I Want You Back" are among The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.
  • "Dancing Machine" – sold 3+ million records and received a Grammy nomination in 1975 for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The song popularized the physically complicated robot dance technique (devised by Charles Washington) and immortalized by Michael Jackson.
  • "Mama's Pearl" – it was one of six consecutive top 5 singles for the Jackson 5; reaching number two on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.
  • "The Love You Save" – held the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 single chart for two weeks in 1970; replacing "The Long and Winding Road" by The Beatles.
  • Additional Jackson 5 Songs – Later in 2010, Universal Music Enterprises and ZOOZ Mobile will offer additional Jackson 5 songs within the ZOOZbeat Jackson 5 Remix in-App Store and at ZOOZbeat.com.

That looks pretty epic. I'm sure the estate will approve it somehow. :\

I really do hope it passes. There's a definite deficit of MJ apps.
 
not yet. the estate doesn't even answer my emails. they don't care
 
it is not in AppStore because the estate doesn't want to approve it.

"we cannot give you permission to create an iPhone application which essentially consists of making materials owned by the Estate and/or other third parties available for download"

i have no ideea what to do from now. i can't put it in cydia because i risk to loose my developer account and the income i get from my other apps

Hey Valentin, the app looks great, but please don't lose faith in getting it approved, I'm sure it will happen if you just keep trying...

On a side note, I've been trying my hand at iPhone development but am only just starting out. With that in mind I was wandering if you could point me in the right direction for learning the SDK or possibly send me some source code to look through...?

I'm also willing to help your projects from a testing point of view if that would be of any help?
 
Oh, this would be amazing! I just got an iPod Touch!
 
no news from estate. how many have jailbroken devices? maybe i will release it on cydia
 
Keep us all posted! Anyone else got that free "MJ Trivia" app? It's a little better than I thought it would be!
 
If this gets approved I will finally buy an iPhone.

Looks so great.
