Hey guys, first post on these forums; I just finished this up for the upcoming Christmas season. It's an orchestral trance/rock mix of Carol of the Bells, We Three Kings, and a bit of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Have to say when I heard Trance, Christmas bells and 3 kings mentioned in the same sentence I almost skipped over it. But actually the bells fit pretty well and I was surprised.

Decent track. Gets a bit too la la la for me though.

Ho ho ho!!

The song is quite good. Really liked the tubular bells in it.
but, for Christmas' sake, pls delete the tiny bells (sleigh-bells) from it!
It comes in at different places and very annoying. Without that it would be a superb track.

Cheers,

Caine

Takere? I assume that means something good? Thanks for the listen.

hey audix...
I like to hear trance remixes and i like to hear medleyes and i like to hear christmas songs... so this fits allll those bills!
a trance remix of a christmas medley lol.
First, I would want to hear this in a better quality form, cuz this streaming player demolishes the track's quality i think.
Okay, I am not a fan of the bass I am able to hear. I like your work with the chord progressions and the melodies. I think there is a bit too much midwash reverb..part of the problem is probably that the high and low are mangled in the streaming player encoding...
i dont like ur snare. but thats personal preference i guess. I see this more as a "techno remix" than trance...if u know what i mean. I like the bit of acid bass things going on. i find your perc thin and your bass/kick/snare/hats could be a TON more driving. I also think you should have some kind of eastern sitar synth for the we three kings theme haha thatd be sweet!
I always wanted to do a remix of christmas tracks. Basically,.its a good track but I think there's too much delay and reverb for the amount of stuff going on (esp at the rate its going on ) Work on better drive for kick and bass. Your placement of synths EQ-wise would help bring out more clarity and allow for more generous verb usage.
but over all a pretty cool track! (ps did u use FL studio for this?)
