Wow, that rhythm! Good remake, nicely produced. How a coinsidence, 'cuz I just downloaded the "Rollo & Sister Bliss Monster mix" yesterday!
Have you been inspired by this remix?

Hmm this sounds kinda weird, as if there's built upon another track. Bass is cool but there's a subbass which I don't like. Basement-Jaxx feel around hear with all those bleepy sounds. Sample-alert. Percs are cool. Nice ideas. Just not my thing this, quality is not too good, all sounds distorted and too compressed.

that's because it is sorry if i didn't make it clear, it's a bootleg of spektrum - kinda new (tiefschwarz dub) and donna summer - i feel love (danny howells mix). i left both the basslines in (which i wouldnt do usually) as i liked the effect but i knew it wouldn't be to everyones taste.

Doesn't work too well, sounds as if it needs to be cleaned up.

I don't listen to trance exclusively, but I still stand by my post. The mix just sounds too cluttered. I've heard both of the originals, and I may be wrong (he may have edited the individual tracks a bit) but I get the feeling that it's just both played on top of each other. There's just too much going on.

You are pretty much right, this is probably the simplest boot i've made. There's a few effects in the small break and i have re-arranged one or both of the tracks slightly, but it is an a + b bootleg.

i can see your point about it being cluttered as with 2 tracks there is going to be a lot going on but i like it that way

its out, the two tracks arent in the right beat sequence with eachother

nice idea tho, i reckon ill just mix it live tho when i play out with vinyl

nar, they are def in time, that much is easy. if you had said they were out of key it'd be a different story


Posted by djhydra on Sep-09-2004 22:50:

sounds like you just layered the two tracks on top of each other in acid pro or some kind of sequencer...

i think it would work better just mixing the two in a dj mix---these two songs do not work as one song...kinda ruining the spektrum track and the donna summer track...

less is more...its just kind of too much going on at once with this, at least i think...if you want to do a mashup don't simply have the two tracks layered on top of each other, really you could have simply done that live...

take parts and peices from both tracks and fuse them with perhaps some new sounds as well...

having both parts of the track go together like you did with full eq on both is just too much

no they aint followign eacothers 4x4's properly

you coulda made a much much better job of this you know

Very funky track man! I think this has monster potential, I love that beat and your general production is very good.

Get it sent out to a few DJ's, including Pete Tong (cos he has a major radio show)


...Keep on LootBeging

they are and that is fact, there is no point arguing. you wouldn't be the only one to notice if they out of phrase believe me

dj hydra - i did say before it is just an a + b boot, and from now on i will most likely do much more than this (which *would be* bordering on remixing really).

but hey, i still like it, and thats what matters at the end of the day

for those that did like it, cheers for the encouragement and you may want to check out a house boot i made a while back. this is also simple but again i think it works a treat

Cosmos vs Prassay - Take Me Krvsin (dub)

Cosmos vs Prassay - Take PQM Krvsin

p.s. i know it's is one track on top of the other, that was the idea

edited to make sense

mashups are hardly remixes...make some of your OWN sounds and fuse them, and twist the producers sounds into your own original groove...come on, i know you have/know the software!, go further

i am agreeing with you here! what i have made is 100% mashup, but the more of your own sounds you add the more like a remix the track will become. This track was intended to be a straight up bootleg, nothing more, but i am gonna to move more towards what you are suggesting in the future.

however... i do think that there is a place for a+b bootlegs if the tracks work well together
