PVD question (Second sun?/Starecase?)

http://www.pcmusic.co.za

Paul Van Dyk says:

On the other hand, there's this guy in Canada who comes across really shy and is like listen here and it's absolutely amazing, it's just not sounding right

quote:
As an example for Vandit, our label, there was this kid in Canada, giving me a CD and he was like, "Here, listen to what I am doing." I came back home and I was listening to it and it sounded absolutely terrible, it was horrible, but the thing is, the track itself that he did, was absolutely amazing

does anyone know who PVD is referring to? my guess is either Starecase or Second sun. anyone know for sure?

does this mean that the mixing was shit but the track itself was good?

to answer on behalf of Starfox (if i may):

In these excerpts, van Dyk is referring to Second Sun...and this was actually how he came across this group based in Toronto. They gave him a CD following one of his gigs, and he actually listened to it. According to van Dyk, the actual track was amazing, but the sound quality was awful. So he tuned up the melody and even decided to remix it...and shazaam! a making of an amazing track from amateur producers..

Second Sun-Empire is gonna be out sometime in April i believe, they are still working on a b-side for the record.....

Second Sun

He was speaking about Second Sun. He said that the actual track was good, but the production of it (i.e. compressing, mastering, samples) were not good and they went into the studio to bring that up to quality.

I can definitely vouch for that. I was one of the people interviewing him
