FiXT is an American independent media company with several divisions including a record label, an online music store, a film/TV/video game music licensing arm, and a remix contest site and community. FiXT was founded and is owned by Klayton, a musician most known for his electronic rock project Celldweller. ==History== FiXT started in 2006 as an outgrowth of Esion Media, the name under which Klayton published his earliest Celldweller material. After years of trouble with distributors over how to properly handle Celldweller's unique brand of music, Klayton decided to take the same approach to record labels as he did with his music and handle the matter himself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.themusicninja.com/tmn-exclusive-celldweller-interview/ )〕 Some of the first releases on FiXT were remix compilations for Celldweller tracks that were called the Take It & Break It series. The remixes were solicited from fans who could download and remix the song files for free. Out of this series grew FiXT Remix, a separate site that regularly hosts remix contests for artists signed to FiXT or carried in the FiXT Store.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fixtremix.com )〕 FiXT released a remix EP for the artists lvl, as well a single for ex-Celldweller guitarist Kem's band Subkulture (which Klayton was featured on),〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.facebook.com/pages/Subkulture/22397964615?sk=info )〕 and the subsequent remix album for the contest hosted by FiXT Remix.
