William_Orbit_-_Barbers_Adagio_For_Strings_(Gil_Shwartz_Mix)
Hi again, i've been working on this tune for a while...
I this its a great tune to open up a Club Trance set...
very uplifting and energetic...
the concept was alittle diffrent but then again, what r remixes if not for a concept diffrance?

enjoy
Sounds good and well produced, but you killed the song.
This song(and the amazing FC remix) relies HEAVILY on the effects of the strings in the backround, as it's melody backbone. Youll notice certain(if not all) melodic tracks have usually a lead, synths, and bassline...what made the FC remix so amazing was the way his signature synths expanded the melody by hundredfolds, and his signature bassline kept the rhythm energetic. And you'll notice the main melody doesn't come the hook, but rather in the back.
The point I'm trying to make here is that your remix lacks what gives this track it's meat & potatoes: it has a synth, and lead, but it doesn't have a melody in the backround to play off of...to tell you the truth, compared to the other remixes, yours is very dull and repetitive, almost like trying to convert this epic original into a techish type of track. Don't be offended...it sounds really good and clean, but you need to integrate to the most important part of the song, and unfortatly with this remix, you failed to do that.
Look forward to hearing your work in the future!
wow, hehehe, thanks for the comment dude...
and yeah, i recall FC's remix... but you can't compare me to FC dude 
thanks for the compliment tho 
Anyways, your point is well taken, and no i didn't get offended, its exactly the other way around...
you now told me that i've succseeded turning the concept to a diffrent direction - clubby direction, and for that, I thank you 
In my country, if i'll play the FX mix.. people will sleep on the floor, but if i'll play mine, people will be hanging off the seeling 
Again, thanks alot for your comment, it is highly appriciated!
Oh and as for my future stuff... this remix was the last one in a series of tune bombing...
next tunes of mine will be longer and more 'invested'... no more remixes for the time being 
Thanks for yet another remix Gil!
having a listen. as usual, you always seem to do these up within like 10 min. lol. well done
Ampz
Id say most of what john said, but to make it different is tough task.
And you did try alright, however i will have to smack if you dont get another lead sample, it sounds horribly stupid and that particular sample is WAY overused in the amatuer community, atleast alone.
But the whole track sorry to say, sounds like a bad remake of the fc remix....
Its one rule not to mess with classics, they wont get better!
Especielly this one, since it has one of the most beautiful melodies ever!
Nice try to, gil, keep it up 
cheers,
i've been waiting for a "flame", and i don't blame u dude, i knew i'm gonna get flamed for it and i don't know why i kept going with it 
ah well, it IS a classic that no one can get any better!
take a rest dude, you produce too much. every time i check this section i see your stuff floating around, take a nap, vacation, play comp games, rest your mind man
good stuff btw.
I actually dont like the FC remix,
so i won't say that you killed the song.
it is hard ....
i dont like this very metalic synth you use until 2:11 though
but after 2:11, the sound it so cool, and fits great in the atmosphere of the track, !
overall, (espcially seocnd part)
very good in my opinion!!!

Sorry gil....
i have to say... i hate it! lol
yeah.. im sorry to say but this is not good...
each one and his own taste (thank god for that) hehehe
no worries dude, personally... i hate it too 
(but keep it as a secret)
rofl
thanks for your time though!
I still like euphoric paradise though
I didn't really like it... FC's remix is way better. But then who of us wants to be compared to him, eh? 
I'm sure Isrealian people will like it less melodic and more 'eastern' influences, but I doubt any Europeans will...
Let us hear something like Euphoric Paradise again sometime 
Cheers,
Wim

Well this could have gone a bit darker and this would been good as a drak mix
But sorry not so good /:
I think alot of you not liking this remix of this song is because the FC remix has set the standard for this piece...of course, were not expecting another FC type remix, and with that comes a different level of expectation of remixing...take the song for itself, not how well it compares to the FC remix.
The song itself is a unique take on it...although not as melodic, the song sounds polished and professional...melody appeals to different indiividuals, with different tastes.
Not all Gil's fault !!
Ok guys, time to come to Gil's defence a bit here,
I'm afraid it was me nagging him to do a remix
of this, he truly really didn't want to try it.
But, I must agree with dJohn, I don't think Gil
should really call this a 'remix'. It is so different
from the original, it would have been better to
give it a totally new title, and just leave it to
people to remember where the 'sampled' sounds came
from.
So I feel partly to blame for the grief Gil's getting,
as dJohn says, just try and listen to the trak in its
own right and forget the original for 4/5 mins.

I never really liked the FC mixed because I think it cheesed out Samuel Barber's classic. This one, well, whatever.......
