hm, I didnt know there was a remix contest! I picked up this track when it was released on vinyl. I guess I'll try a remix of my own, considering I just finished up a track.
I'm listening to your mix now, sounds really great, you're doing some good work with it.
ok, the build up just finished, and one complaint: the high's in this track don't stand out, they seem to get flushed in with the other frequencies.. this could partially due to the mp3 conversion, but I recommend you pump up the hi's and this track will be nearly PERFECT.
good work,

ok.. now my opinion:
very nice beginning of the track! sounds perfect
but i don`t like the bassline that much, its a bit weak imo..
i really like that beautifull and proffessional sounding synth wich goes with the bassline!
strings are perfect, as usual
piano sounds cool but the vocal! ahw.. its really unclear.. it has 2 come "on top of" the track, not "in" the track.. if u understand what i mean? it just has 2 be much louder and clearer..
nice lead synth but yeah, same as chrono said: pump up the higher frequencies and this will be perfect!
good job!
grtz, DJ Mantis
ps. k ben thuis, jij bent thuis en duz zal ik deze weken (kheb nog 2 weken vkantie) wel laat opblijven, alleen zaterdags en zondags niet omdak dan meestal op stap ben, maar door de weex zal ik wel vaker laat online zijn, xie je dan wel op msn!
thx for the comments DJ Chrono & Mantis, I'm currently editing the remix just a little bit dfurther, increasing the highs in the track, which where indeed a tad low. vocals are getting cleared out as well (on top of the track as you said ).
take care

PS: Mantis: kzal proberen wat online to komen 's avonds, khoop alleen dat internet tegoei blijft werken

Sounds very nice!
The ONLY thing I didnt like was the way u made the main melody , u kinda alternated some notes. Didnīt like that.
Apart from that everything sounds great , the strings are huge!
Great rmx man!

I like the Nordlicht remix, but the Gouryella one feels too week... Sorry Sounds more like a remix of the Transa remix.
although i did not change any notes from the melody i got from a friend... i'll check the original to clear it out. i think i'm a bit confused about this track... i always mix up the transa mix and the original mix
odrori : again, thx for checking the gouryella remix
as i said above, i was a bit confused... i'm gonna have to hear both version again to see what's wrong i thought the Transa mix had more drive and typical transa sounds... which i don't have
but you might be right, i'll go check it out, if i find the CD's i have it on
take care, thx for checking guys,
Wim/LW
