lovely introduction arrangement and mix. im loving the rolling bassdrum.
bass arrives - still great mixing. the reverbed snare is nice, but it takes away the groove you created with your good perc choice.
synths come in nice. im not very keen on the sawish synthy trumpet. it sounds weak. piano is nice.
i think the melody has been used well. i love that melody from the film. but you have modifed it for the worse imo.
overall the production is clean and very warm.
good job

you mean the melody is different to the one in the film or it has been a "mistake" to remix it?

hmm, this melody sounds familiar, what's the original again? Quite a famous pop song if I'm not mistaken. Didn't know it was the theme for the movie The Beach (also without vocals).
anyway, great work, I think it sounds perfect, everything well balanced out & great build-up, like a smooth flow. I love your work man, nice to hear you're still around. I'm still enjoying In her eyes btw =)

All round production is pretty good. Lots of really good atmospheric sounds and processing in there.
Would agree with righ on the synthy saw trumpet thing.
Unfortunately I didn't much like the piano or setting of the melody which is a shame because the bouncy synth that we hear in isolation early on and towards the end is really cool.
better to have fur in your ears than on your tongue or teeth!
nice to hear that you like it...

hi boss. i mean the change of melody. definately not a mistake to make the rmx. you put that melody back in my head and now it wont leave. i literally have it in my head at least twice a day.
its not like the melody you made is bad. it just battles with my memory of the original melody a bit.

you could be right, because i haven't heard the original for quite a long time and made this out of a midi i have got on my hdd for ages...
i'll have a closer listen on that issue, if i rework it...
