Hello everybody

Been a while since I posted something here, but now that I’ve finished my military service I’ve got a tune ready. There are two versions of it and they are both basically the same song, but with different leads. With that I mean that they have almost exactly the same buildup, the same bassline etc. When I came to the part where I introduce the lead I couldn’t decide which sound to go for, so I just made one version for each lead. There are some mastering differences as well, but nothing too big.

It’s not the best song I’ve worked on lately by far, but I just finished it off and decided to share it

Fatboy – Deep Red (Original Mix) – This version has a standard, trance supersaw lead, which makes it more upfront than the other mix.

Fatboy – Deep Red (Calm Mix) – This version has a plucked synth as the lead.

Comments are more than welcome

hey
[listening to the original mix]
start is cool
like those percs
but this melody sounds a little wierd to me
too much plays with the cutoff or something?

string is great
the pluck is nice

wow man i love the part in 1:17 how everything is jumping heh

great clap and hihats
the crash doesnt sit on the beat i think?

good melodies

string backs again

bass changes
till now excllenet job
the kick is really good

wow the second string in 3:37 is awesome

the melody is great
good sound

anyway i think this track deserves 9.5/10
(0.5 has gone becauze the melody is too much happy for me lol, and i dont really like this kinda melodies]

keep up the good job!

solid track again
nice bass percs & melodies
the calm mix is much better though. its really deeper imo. Cant stand the original saw lead

Sounds very nice! What instruments did you use to comose with and master?? It sounds VERY clear!!! Great job mastering!!!

you should tag the calm mix as the original because it's alot better. good stuff fatty.

both mixes are really good, the original is very eurodace ish hehe
the second is really relaxing, reminds me of the russian music they play at those russian resteraunts i go to sometimes hehe
like PPK slow version
excellent work, keep it up m8
second one is definatly the best

It's been awhile since I'v heard anything by fatboy but this one does not disappoint.
The second version is defiantly better, really liked the pluck thing as a lead. It does remind me a bit of PPK's resurrection but that’s not a bad thing at all.

Great atmosphere, great sounds, great structure… great tune overall

listening to the Calm Mix atm..

good stuff, lots of great sounds. that breakdown is truly breathtaking, gorgeous choirs and strings!

good melody as well, you can clearly hear the classical influences.. not entirely my style, but it works well.

haven't heard the version with the supersaw, but that pluck thingy is a bit annoying tbh. i think a more sweeping synth would sound better in combination with the other elements.


overall it's a very good production.

Thanks for the comments guys Really appreciated!
I agree with those of you that liked the second version best. I named the first one original because I finished it first, but thought it lacked some depth.

please review my latest AMBIENT track HERE.

hey fatboy am a big fan of Rebound.

Listening to the original.

Typical fatboy sounds, all weird and good . digging the intro so far.

bassline is cool.

1.45 comes that riff,, wich i really like, but many stuff come over it later, i prefer that riff on top.

synths are really cool here imo, not the usuall.

i remember you use Reason? i hear some malstorm fx i think, how did you do the choirs here? they are really great.

melody is really dark, should called it Ghost house or something , really liking it.

am not a fan of a second climax, unless you add something totally new.

nope i prefer the original here tnx the Hifi version.

Well my vote definitely goes to the original mix, attitude is where it is 8! Nice tune I really liked the flow of this tune, through the filtering, into breakdowns, etc. Good use of fx too!
