I've been meaning to do a "how to remix" video tutorial series for ages, covering all the sort of remix techniques from scratch, but due to copyright issues, I haven't had permission to use stems from other remix contests or from other artists. I was wondering if I could use these stems and submit the full "how to remix" tutorial video series as my submission? Cheers. :)

Go for it, so long as it teaches something interesting I'll allow it :)

You don't have to use them all, just use the one(s) you want :)

Sure man - it's just a few vocal stems. I might add the guitar stems as well (though I don't really think the guitar tone turned out all that well!) if enough people want them.
Hi! I'm Dave from boyinaband. Here's what the band sounds like:
