Hey all,
here's my second remix for the Belgian TA'ers at Kindred Spirits:
Kindred Spirits - Warp (Icone Remix)
I'll add a permanent link from D-I later on. What I can say about this track is 'people who know me know what to expect from me' ;)
Cheers,
Wim |

Real nice.. I looked on your site and noticed no hard synths.. is this track all software?
I wouldn't expect anything more/less out of a pro track... but if you want to stand out from the rest.. you may want to keep these ideas in mind:
make your bass/kick fatter
melody was good, but not very catchy/epic.. work on making better melodies by using better harmonic structures/chord progressions
experiment more.. you're at the level where you can produce a pro track.. now have fun with it and do something un-expected or original (beat slicing like BT is a good way to start at this IMO) |

| Ooh.. This is very nice! Just the kind of trance I enjoy.. I can't find anything bad about it mate! :) Top stuff! |

Excellent stuff this as expected, my only grumble id say is that the kick needed a bit more bottom end minor technicality tho!!
But excellent stuff, keep up the good work :) |

Hey Wim
Another nice tune to add to my collection to play on my show:D |

Excellent stuff Wim, really liking this one :toothless
I love how the build-up and the use of samples really match each other. The only thing is the beat, as Alanzo already concluded the kick is a little on the weak side could pump it up some more :) Maybe some more percussion?
However, great production :) Keep up the good work!

very nice work icone ;)
> personnally i think that the main melody is nothing special, same goes for the plucky chord in the buildup. ive heard them too much i think :happy2:
> production is TOP NOTCH, quite fat sounding :) structure is great and globally i love the sounds you use.

Thanks guys!
Guess everybody expects everybody to go experimental every now and then. Dunno if I'm that type of guy really, so sorry to disappoint on that matter for some people :)
I had some problems with the kick not messing with the bassline in this track, this is what I got as best result while fiddling with it. I don't have an ultra-pro mastering rack, so please bare with me on that one ;)
I also noticed that during the track, some percussion didn't come through as it should, maybe I will compress them a bit more afterwards.
Plucky chord during the buildup is just there I think, I used it to fill up some gaps. Mind One still uses them too and I personally still quite like them... :)
Cheers,

| this track sound very familiar to some other track, i think it's either your track sorrow or aalto - rush, any how, i dunno, i don't like this to much, it sounds so way past it's due date. |

that's what i like about it. today's epic trance is too complex and takes way too long to build. i love how straight-in-your-face this remix is (a feature that we also used for the original mix). it reminds me of how good trance was five years back. there's plenty of energy here and i'm sure it's a bomb on the dancefloor.
many thanx again for the remix, Wim :eyespop: |
