Hi everyone-

My new and improved website is now up and running, a few things still need to be sorted but for the most part it's ready to rock. There are some mixes available for your listening pleasure in the Audio section, and I'll have clips of some forthcoming releases on there soon. I hope you enjoy the music!

Cheers

Mike

Hi Mike.
Just a quick question. Have you released anything similiar to Things Can Only Get Better? That tune is great.


Posted by mike hiratzka on May-14-2006 12:40:

The 'Two Worlds' track I did with Scott Dixon is pretty much the only other track I can think of that's along those lines...

I have a forthcoming remix of Retrobyte - 'Going Down' on Undermine Records that it somewhat prog trance, though it's not as melodic as 'Things'. It does rock pretty hard though...

I should have some showreel clips up soon so you can check out my other tunes.

Cheers

Mike


BTW, Lost Language should be releasing 'Things' remixes later this year...

ok, i haven't heard any of your material before, so i headed over to your website to check your tunes out and there is nothing in the audio section by the look of it.

don't you think the most important thing about a producers website is to provide viewers with downloadable clips? especially before you post the link on the biggest trance forum on the web

Things can only get better is an outrageously good track.

i pretty much bought the 3 vinyl sampler only for that tune i was listening in the shop and i realised that most of the other tracks are actually not bad either hehe

Mike I'm curious if yours and Kazell's track "Venice Dawn" *with* Shirli McAllen's vocals will ever be released?


Posted by mike hiratzka on May-14-2006 14:36:

Thanks so much for the kind comments, you all made my morning!

Nell - there's a few things up there now, hope you enjoy the tunes!

Shade - I'm not sure if the vocal mix will ever get released or not, sorry. If I get any updates from the labels involved I will be sure to post a notice here or on my site.

Cheers,

Mike

"just remember one thing... things can only get better!"

Ah.. memories:

Nemesis @ Mixology radio april 2004

01.[00:00] New Disco Science Alliance - The Only Way Home [Progress Inn]
02.[05:15] Fingerfest Inc. - Chemical whore (Dubadon Mix) [Choo Choo Records]
03.[10:43] Hiratzka vs Kazell - Things Can Only Get Better [Lost Language]
04.[17:10] Matsumoto & DJ Yoshi - The Dreamer (Luke Chable Mix) [Precinct]
05.[23:26] Empire State - Niagara (Filo & Peri's Bangin' Mix) [Lost Language]
06.[31:17] George Hales - Autumn Falls [Somatic Sense]
07.[36:54] DJ Tab - Radiate [Anjunabeats]
08.[43:06] ATN - Miss A Day [F&W]
09.[47:56] Filo & Peri - I95 [Armada]


What I don't understand though Mike, is what's up with the slightly different version of TCOGB that Oakey was playing on party931? It had synth stabs that the normal version didn't have

wow i just looked at the website, very nice!

as far as the oakey set, im pretty sure its unreleased magic that will never surface. Every producer should have a bag of re-edits and unreleases for themselves and other dj's

congrats on the site mike and all the best in 2006!


Posted by mike hiratzka on May-18-2006 12:02:

That's funny, I don't remember doing two versions... hehe

Actually, I think the one Oakey had was an early version that we decided didn't sound as good as we wanted, then we went back and changed a few things as well as tightening up the mixdown. I'd have to go back and listen to the Oakey set to know for sure. That kind of stuff happens occasionally...

Did you like the early version better? Just curious...

I guess it was just a slightly different twist. I think I liked them both the same amount. Check your pm mike I just uploaded the track to my website and sent you a link. 12mb file. Oops, I just noticed you can't accept PMs.. I sent the link to you through the contact form on your site!


Posted by mike hiratzka on May-19-2006 00:31:

I'm still looking for it, got literally thousands of CDRs to go through Hopefully I can find it!

I didn't realize my PM was off, it's on now...
