wow REALLY cool, i like it, very good!

keep it going like this!

great work, nice and chilled tune. not a big fan of the original vocals, but i love it when you fuck them up with the gating/filtering. nice strings, i like the beat too.
could use something extra to justify the lenght of the tune, maybe some extra melodies in the 2nd half?

holy shit, i never expected this style from you ross. this song is fuckin sick, im really likin it, on repeat =)


Posted by TOR on Sep-29-2003 17:08:

great stuff, very atmospheric! the kick should be a bit louder though..


Posted by jethro on Sep-29-2003 17:17:

this is a nice mix bro. Like the mellow flow of it alot..

Damnit, you stole my idea


Posted by dj dimwit on Sep-29-2003 20:23:

Hey Rb buddy,

Nice remix! Nice and smooth... kick is ok, I don't think it should be louder. Nice bassline...nice percussion....nice vocals...overall: NICE

I was hoping for more melody tho...ah well, that's my problem, I always need a melody (right Pjotr? )

Keep it up mate!

Hey, very nice tune, I love it! But can you PLEASE make a dub version? I can't stand the vocals, they ruin the groove.

HOW CAN I MISS THIS??!? The link isn't working anymore! That's what I get when I dont' come here for a while


Posted by J.L. on Sep-30-2003 06:46:

wow... ok... here's my thoughts on the track..

- The vocals sit very well with the track... I know I say this with all of your vocal tracks but I think you just have a way of making the vocals sound beautiful and non-repetitive. The way you altered the vocals and all the things you've done t it sound really nice.
- Pads are dreamy and atmospheric and compliment the vocals well and also adds a nice melodic background touch to the track
- Overall song structure is good... Vocals come in when they are supposed to... The song doesn't sound repetitive and varies from place to place which keeps the listener hooked on it.
- ok... some of my opinions on the perc. It isn't the most interesting percussion in the world but it's not bad also. IMO, I think the percussion is pretty simple but that's all right b/c the vocals and pads and other things cover up for it nicely and also b/c the percussion isn't supposed to be like the focus of this track. However some other ppl might not like it b/c they might be listening for the percussion and not hear much going on. So, I would say the percussion could use a bit of extra variation and different sounds
- The bass is a mixed bag for me... on one hand, i listen to it and it compliments the track very well.. on the other hand, if you listen just for the bass, it doesn't seem to have a lot of drive to it if you know what i mean... IMO, it could use a small bit of boost with the lower frequencies

hope those comments help ... i enjoyed listening to your track

Nice strings indeed. You might think of putting some more powerful melody on top of it. I think it lacks a bit of power. Nicely edited vocals, though .

Hey Everyone, thank you for your comments, remarks, and all the positive reinforcement you game me!

Its really cool to know most of you enjoyed the remix! =)

Im working on maybe adding that lead in teh 2nd half that some of you mentioned.. and im considering a tad more percussion.. but not sure on that tho!

For now if anyone wants a 192 version for mixing let me know!

THanks Again!

I love the Pads you got going on in the intro. The vocal was a surprise. Thought you were gonna do a dub, but then again, you'd put that in the title. The bell effects are a nice touch, and some of the effects, with those cool synths are sweet!


The pads rock man! Sweet use of sweeps, and basses! It really puts a nice touch in this production!


It has a nice chill out feel to it. I love chill out. Gives you time to think, and time to reflect. D00d, I give you respect for this! I've heard your other production, but I luv this one man! Keep this up! (Great week for TA's!!!!) -Mental


Posted by rb2k1 on Oct-03-2003 06:46:

I agree with others here, its a great remix! Very much my style too as i like deep and smooth proggy stuff with a beautiful chilled feeling. Great use of the vocals too.

IMO it doesn't need more power. If you ppl want more power go hunt for the million uplifting trancers out there!

Keep up the great work like this and you might be something big soon!
