hahahhaha....nice idee mate, like it. the vocal is a bit out of sync at 2.11

good production overall, like the piano, pecussion is ok, the pad should be a bit louder imo, bass is a bit too weak i think.
decent mixdown.

enjoyed this alot, i wonder what's gonna happen if this get's played in a progressive-trance mix LOL.

cheers, thanks for sharing

ps: it's more like prog, not trance

I like the idea and the way you turned it into a nice progressive trancer. The first time I heard your remix, I noticed the bass as a confusing one - perhaps because its expanded frequent spectrum. But after a while I accustomed to it.
The bassdrum is a bit too weak imo. The pad fits good in there and gives your version a smooth atmosphere.

Overall a good production - keep it up!

Haha, this is awesome. Cheesy of course, but it's still well produced. This song always reminds me of my childhood (god I feel old when I say that)

Christina Aguilera has an amazing voice, it's a shame she always sings crap songs.

Would love to hear a clip if you've got one

some really nice sounds there dude, didnt really like the bassline, yet the melodic piano part is a real masterpiece.

would eliminate the main vocals though cause they make the track cheesy.
(im reffering to 3:28 to 3:50 mainly)

Hahaha I love this remix

The bass sounds a bit odd and the track could use some additional layers, but it's great nevertheless

The vocals seemed to be off at some points, maybe you can fix that

Posted by david.michael on Jul-11-2006 18:12:

Again, thanks for the comments guys!

I knew that the vocals were a bit off in parts, but I actually purposefully left them like that. I thought it added a little bit of a "human" element to it and gave it character. But I suppose I was mistaken and it just sounds erroneous, lol. I will keep this in mind for the future.

agreed completely. add some more build elements and also maybe eliminate the main vocals like davi said and you have an awesome track on your hands. Great work thus far, it even works like this

good tune..not so sure about the bass though

Posted by cybernetica on Jul-13-2006 15:21:

Hey,

first of all thanks for your words on my tune!

now listening...
track starting with a nice pulse/fm type (?) sort of synth.
The kick is excellent, as well as the other percussion, lots of punch and dynamics on the snare for example!
I dont like the farting noisy distortion on the bass at all, its kinda distracting, made me think my speakers are broken.
The sub bass is ok though.
Nice use of those short vocals, they fit very well in the tune.
The piano parts are maybe a little too melancholic in contrast with the rest of the tune, I dont know how to say it, I just got that feeling, that it doesnt always fit, maybe try a different note progression and more variation from those 2 simple arpeggios.
Otherwise, I like the progression, where you take away the bass and some other elements to put emphasis on the vocals. That really works! Maybe you could even try some kind of breakdown or a part with a totally different percussion.
Oh, some nice processings on the vocals as well.

The production quality is great, very professional. Good job all in all.
