hey mate,

Percs are really good in this one, nice work kick is mint.

Bassline was quite boring IMO, the sound and pattern are just too simple.

Processing on vocals is good, clear and not overcrowded. Melodies, synths and pads are nice too

Definitly a good remix, except for that bass

Stino: thanks for the comment , i disagree about the percs though.. could have been some more imo and ur perfectly right about the vocals.. i just placed them ontop with a little reverb and some EQ, plus a little panning trick.. i totally should have used alot of the effects u mentioned.. but i never worked with vocals before

ur right about the piano as well, and the noise in the beginning.. but i dont use FL though.. thanks again

staticbleu: thx for the comment ^^

Not much new to add, most already said. I think the vocals sound to much "long hall reverb".

but its a pretty cool remix, you should be pleased.

Kick is nice, i dont have any problem with it. The whole production has a really 80's feeling to me, which is a good thing

Percussion is well done, but the bassline doesnt have enough drive in my opinion, comparing to the other elements, it should stand out more. I like the main synth, the other one is nice also, it has a really oldschool feel. I like how u used the vocals, but i agree with others, some more fx and varition on them would be nice. Overall, some sounds needs to be fatten up, but i like the main idea and the chord progression!

good work mate, keep them coming!

Wow, this a lot more uplifting than I expected, hehe.
I really like the chord progression, it goes very well with the vocals.
The vocals themselves have a rather weird reverb applied to them that unsettles me a bit. They are quite loud in the mix too.
Is there some clipping during the main parts? Maybe it's just the kick/bassline combination, something seems to be distorted down there.

Anyway, some very good ideas but not my favourite track of yours unfortunately.

this one has a really nice feel to it, the vocals were nice, but to me it sounded like there was that hall sound in there, like she is singing in a hall, or it almost sounds like she is doing it live, but still sounds nice, im still gonna add this to my collection

This is really good....a few suggestions though.

-The vocals would be better if added a little less abruptly.
-I would rather the vocals didn't stick out from the mix so much in the first vocal section. It's a bit better for the rest of the track where more stuff is going on, but in the beginning I feel like the vocals are definitely too loud.
-Personally I would have a little bit less vocals total. Honestly I think they take away a little bit from the beauty of the track.
-I would shorten the track a bit...cut out 2 minutes or so from the last section. The end gets a little repetitive.


Other than those things, this track if freakin' epic. You can definitely tell that you were enjoying yourself during the piano part, and that makes the track even better. Good stuff...


As a side note, the kick sounds fine to me. Definitely on the fat/loud side but I tend to like that.

I'm new to posting in this section and this is the second track I've listened to thats been uploaded here, and I don't want to pass IntegraR0064judgement as I no expert but everything IntegraR0064 said I agree with, I love this track it sounds brilliant, and have enjoyed listening to it.
I'm not as keen on the breakbeat but still very good job

Hey I saw this one on the Armin Audio ftp.

This is one of my favourite Madonna tracks, lol. Really good for remixing, it has a nice melody. But then it needs to be remixed properly..
When the vocal goes down it drowns a bit. That while the vocal's volume is way to high. Like being said, it just seems to be put right on top of the track. No vocal fx and stuff, really a pity. Time issue?
Reverbs are way too much in there. On the fx and vocals.
Kick is too present in the lows and although it gives that downtempo feel, its a bit too much imo.
The 4 bar loops you used aren't fit in right, you have to slow them a bit to fall on the kick, cause the become messy like this.
The synths are way too thin man, in my opinion. Overall it has a bit of an enigma feel, in which the low fi synths may fit, but I'd choose for more interesting, fatter ones. Just more effort to put in a track, at least if you want Armin to play it I think.
Lastly, the track is 4-5 mins too long. Only make long track when you introduce new sounds all along and have a long buildup.

I hope this is a bit helpful. Track is not my cup.
