Hey peepz,

I've updated the remix with the kind feedback I got. I don't know if these changes are that major, but the elements that were changed are for example the lowering of the bass level a little bit and turn up the volume on the vocals a bit more. The piano also has a clearer sound now. Consider this to be the final mix of the track

this track is HUGE!! seriously, this has got to be one of the best tracks i have heared on this forum! the break is absolutely mesmerising, strings and vocals seem glued together.. brilliant main melody as well, seems like i'll have to edit my post in the best amateur melody thread.. my only critisism is that the bassline is a bit too loud. i love its sound, but especially during the build-up it interferes with the other sounds, which is not that pretty.. but apart from that, a stunning job!!

Great remix, much better than the original.
all i can complain about is the bassline. just think you picked the wrong sample or something, 'cus it doesn't sound to good when the bassline changes, get to bright. hard to explain

Very nice track Wim, I am once again impressed!

The overall production quality of the track is excellent.

I can see where the bassline criticisms are coming from. It does sound a little abrupt with the bassline changes, which happens when you have a higher note to keep it in tune. Hard to overcome, but in my opinion it sounds not too bad.

The breakdown is gorgeous, especially the strings. The piano kinda sounds outta place at times though. I suggest you kill it at the point when that great main lead kicks in. I personally think it interferes with it!

Overall, top notch track, as said previously one of the best posted here!

Thx for the kind comments

So the bassline should be less compressed perhaps? I could take another sample or softsynth, see what effect it has. Maybe a softsynth can generate more fluid basslines. Though, I've experimented with some in the past and I find basslines coming from softsynths lacking in depth to be honest... Though I kind of like it this way with a sample (my own opinion)

Cheers & thx again!

hey mate,

nice remix u did there
luvly driving bassline and i have 2 agree with everyone here that the vocal+strings rock, and the bassline is huge
also the main synth is very nice!
i don`t think the bass is 2 hard or whatever, its just fine this way imo

grtz,

mantis
