Feedback on my remix

P H I L L Y A M B I E N T (B R O K E N S I L E N C E R E M I X) - P S Y L I C H O N

Hello,

I did a remix this weekend for a friend of mine- really just a homage to such an amazing song he wrote. The original song is an ambient track that is just mindblowing, one of the most beautiful songs ever written..so I took some of the material, gave it a different edge and rewrote the parts into a more trancey feel.

Kind of a heads up with this one: its DEFFO not in your face and really not supposed to be. I tried to give it a more progressive feel and not as much thumping energy with huge melodic lines as normal trance is today. It's pretty progressive and laid back...some nice sounds here and there etc. I tried to make almost a kind of statement I guess...really simple percussion, big sweepy sound effects and flowing basslines.

I hope you can take a listen, I'm pretty pleased with it. I'd love to know what you think of it..

(It's called Omegaseven remix at soundclick, just two different artist names from me)

The original song can be found here (he did 2 different mixes of it) which I EXTREMELY reccomend, it's just amazing:

Ok dude here goes as i listen:

Good kick, bassline is pretty decent too. Yeah like it. Fx are niiiiice!
Synths come in... they are quite simple. Maybe you could thicken them. Violin needs a bit more reverb, it's too fake. Same for the other strings coming next.

Apart from that production quality is quite good. I don't like the melody in trance genre but that might be personal.

Overall it's pretty good
