Alt + F4 - Alt + F4 [Klangzentrum Remix]

(7.23min @ 96kb/s)

comments and suggestions to improve it are really appreciated...

Nice remix, well mint!

Catchy bassline which suits the rhythm & melody just fine! I would try adding more 'release'-effects (midi) on the synths lateron. There's only one thing that concerns me: It's the place where you put the clap. Or am I mistaking the melody in this one?
(U know what I mean, don't you?)
Daring, thought yet nicely produced!

nice and different attempt to that song

good work, you definitley made some progress since the last sample i heard from you

Posted by Klangzentrum on Oct-22-2004 16:31:

thxfor your reply, websley!!!

i�ll try with the synths....perhaps some more reverb and delay...

about the clap? no, i actually dont know what you mean?
there�s a strong reverbed bongo in the break...
beat is out of rythm there...i noticed it when i heard it again...
thx for reminding me...i�ll correct it...

and also thx @ matthew
yeah, i was producing a lot lately...improved my sound...and i start to get content with the results...

About the clap, oh well... It's hard to explain.

Take for example one measure (which contains 4 beats)
Normally, you got the:
1 (boom) 2 (clap) 3 (boom) 4 (clap)-feeling.

But with your production, I keep placing that clap on the 1st & 3rd beat in my mind. (It's gives me a kinda gospel-feeling)
1 (clap) 2 (boom) 3(clap) 4 (boom)

I think it has to do with how I interpreter the melody,
Or I just need to have my ears cleaned

hehe, then i was right with my first thought, which i didnt write down...
i�ll have a try with the clap at 2 and 4 instead of 1 and 3...
whatever sounds better is accepted...

mm this is nice quality , clap could be longer/louder...
i really like ur interpretation of the song , really nice and mellow
all i can think of to fix is the clap and the percs... just make some more percs and more variations...
but its really nice laid back track
cant wait for ur next remix
peace out

Posted by Klangzentrum on Oct-22-2004 22:56:

thx, sunquest...
i�ll work on the clap...not the biggest problem to make it sound more powerful...
...more percs are also planned...

atm i�m trying to figure out whats wrong with the remix...and such specific reviews are always a good help for me...

btw: let�s see what�s screaming for a remix, beside my own productions, which also deserve some work...

I can't download the file

Posted by Klangzentrum on Oct-23-2004 11:42:

he downloads the html file i get, if i click the link normally...

anyways: had the chance to listen to the track now: i have to agree that the clap sounds quite odd at 1-3... 2-4 would definately be better

altogether the remix is really nice, tho i think that some string pattern in the background would spice things up a bit... i got the impression that the sound was not quite full, if you know what i mean...

Posted by Klangzentrum on Oct-23-2004 14:00:

thx for your reply, nge!
yeah, already corrected the clap pattern!
i�ll try with some strings...atm i just have to layered deep pads...

if you still have had the dl-prob, i would sent it to you per icq...but you got the chance to hear it...

if somebody else has a dl-prob, just pm me...

nice remix, does justice to the original

thx for sharing

Posted by Klangzentrum on Oct-24-2004 14:35:

thx romain...
i�m currently working on it again...so it will probably be even better that now...
