Bringing power back to music makers. SURF Music is a digital marketplace ecosystem for music creators and buyers across the global entertainment industry.
REJAY “The World Sings the 2nd Verse” | #BedChallenge
REJAY, who we’ve previously collaborated with on the SURF Music x REJAY “Meant to Be” Remix Contest, is inviting fans, artists, songwriters, and music creators around the world to join her latest social media challenge for her new single, “bed.”
The concept is simple: REJAY sings the first verse, and the world sings the second.
“bed” is a quiet, intimate confession about finding comfort in stillness while the world continues to move around you. Rooted in feelings of solitude, longing, and unspoken love, the song creates a personal space for listeners to connect with and make their own.
We’re inviting songwriters, producers, and artists from the SURF community to put their own spin on the second verse. Recreate and sing it in any language, explore any genre or style, and make it your own. Whether acoustic, pop, R&B, jazz, lo-fi, classical, rap, or something completely unexpected, there are no creative boundaries.
How to participate:
1. Access and download the vocal-only track, instrumental stems and chords via the link below
2. Record your own interpretation of the second verse
3. Share your performance directly on social media
4. Tag your post with #BedChallenge
REJAY will be resharing standout contributions, with selected performances potentially coming together in a collaborative global version of “bed.”
No submissions through the SURF Music platform are required. Just create, share, and tag #BedChallenge!
One song, one invitation, and countless ways to make it your own. The first verse belongs to REJAY. The second verse belongs to the world. We can’t wait to hear what you create!

🌊 Remix Contest SURF Prize — SYO
SYO has been selected as the SURF Prize winner of the Rol3ert “savior” Remix Contest.
For this remix, SYO focused on creating a version that would feel natural to play in his own DJ sets, bringing his own club-oriented approach to the original track.
While he has recently been focusing mainly on his work as a composer, he hopes this release will help his music reach a new audience.
The remix will also be pressed on a 7-inch record — making it an especially meaningful release, as it will be the first vinyl record SYO has ever owned.
SYO’s remix will be available as a disk union purchase bonus for Rol3ert’s 『meet me in my head』, releasing on October 21.

🥈 Remix Contest Second Prize — Lemon City
Lemon City has been selected as the Second Prize winner of the Rol3ert “savior” Remix Contest.
Having loved J-POP since they were young, they often dreamed about what it would be like to see their own music displayed in a record store in Japan.
Now, that dream has come true in a way they never expected.
For the remix, they wanted to preserve the appeal of Rol3ert’s vocals and melody, while adding a fresh approach with female vocals in the Japanese verse and lyrics in both Japanese and Korean.
Driven by synth bass, the remix brings a dynamic energy that gives “savior” a different character from the original.
