Oceanlab - Satellite (Fatboy Remix)

Been ages since I've posted anything in here. This is the only piece of music that I've been able to finish off since I went in the Navy.

I didn't spend as much time as usual on it, so it's nothing new and groundbreaking in any sense, but I think it turned out pretty good It's 192 kbps, but I only made a (pretty long) clip since I don't know the legalities of posting the full song.
Comments are very welcome

hehe, heavy bassline as usual.. it's a bit too loud though, it's all i can hear in some places.

anyway, the break is wicked!!

Brilliant!
However the melody sounds a hell of a lot like 'Fresh Fromage' !

good to see you back !

First of all...
The way you warped the vocals in places like 1:55 and 3:12 sounds uber cool!

Living up to your name... your synths are definately phat as usual as can be expected from fatboy

Basically my take on this track is
melody (even though i'm not a huge fan of vocal trance) :
9.5/10
synths:
10/10
bass (a tad bit muddy but has a retro-kinda feel to me and sounds cool) :
8/10
mastering/mixing/overall sound (to my ears, it feels like it could use some more dynamics) :
7/10

Just a bit on the last point... I think your track sounds good as it is but I like a more thumpier track and I think it could use some more dynamics in the main section of your track with all the beats/bass/synths/vocals...

Also... finally... like the unique kinda retro feel to it... props

cool, the kick is bit low though

but nice melodies!

Thanks for the comments guys

netroM: vokal versjonen av FF er brent ut p� en cd et eller annet sted. Jeg sender en pm hvis jeg finner den.
TOR: hehe, I guess I like em big
Luke: that should be no problem, check pm
Bren: about the melody, I said it wasn't anything groundbreaking Seriously though, I thought that chord progression suited the vocals so I just went with it
kewlness: thanks for that long review I agree that the bass is a bit too muddy. I had a hard time getting it right, and in the end I just had to settle for what I had. I also agree about the dynamics. I went abit overboard with the compressors
Massive84: I also wanted the kick a bit higher, but it interfered too much with the bass and I didn't have time to change everything around. Thanks for the advice

Peace

Very impressive track. Is it possible to get a 192kbps full version to play on my show on trancesphere?

yes! that is really awesome. this roxors

the part at 3:59 where its all orchestrated sounding is really cool and then at 4:13 it sweeps, gets all quiet and then busts out full again (i like this a lot).

during the first breaks section i like how you do the kick roll at
2:05, 2:12, 2:19, 2:26 it gives a nice effect.

and then the part at 2:26 and i really like that filtered synth.

starting at 3:15 there are these little synth stab notes, i think they are a good addition too.

also, how you drop everything out at like 5:01 - 5:05 and then come back is cool, you get the idea lol.

ok, this is a very energetic remix and i would like to hear the full version some time

good job

awesome stuff man!

Thanks for the comments guys!
extalin: it's cool that you pointed out some specific parts that I decided to have in this remix right from the start
moore: check pm

Posted by dj-rob on Apr-05-2004 17:04:

awesome track, at some parts the vocals sorta lose presence. cool synths and nice atmospheric elements.
overall an awesome remix and does deserve playtime on trancesphere
good stuff!

Posted by dbl on Apr-05-2004 17:22:

really nice remix man

Posted by Icone on Apr-06-2004 10:50:

Really good remix I think, but I would have expected no less from you. Of course, it's miles better than the original.

It's packed with power and drive, which I love in a trance track. It sometimes makes me forget a track is no less than 10 mins long

Is the remix finished though? I would love to hear it as a whole when done...

Cheers,
Wim

Damn, I was gonna say that! :P

Still a fantastic tune though! And good to see you back on the forums.

very good remix; your prods are rare, so thanks for the present.
quality production, very powerful; you make a great use of the nice vocals. i like a lot the main melody too... you did a great job, congrats.

Posted by elena on Apr-14-2004 01:56:

cant give you much feedback on technicalities, but youve got enough of that here anyway.
definitely love the distorted/filtered synths, makes the whole thing very dramatic. also like the smooth melodies.

im very confused about the volume levels though...

Posted by getfoul on Apr-15-2004 10:31:

is it possible to get a full version of this? The preview sounded soooo good.

Posted by Tim_G on Apr-15-2004 13:02:

VERY Good REMIX! This will be aired on my radio show soon!

Posted by qrogression on Jun-15-2004 13:51:

hey fatboy,
i already mailed you once about the plummet-damaged remix track you did, about how much i liked it. Again this is very nice sounding.
Do you have any productions of your own?
Would love to hear them!
