=damn the melody of this track is really hard to work with, I started to make a remix just for the hell of it, and to be honest, it didn't inspired me much, that is why I didn't complain about 15 entries out of 50, because if I was a participant I probably had dropped off.

EXACTLY why i dropped out.... such a hard melody to work with. |

Am gonne be honnest with everyone.
As a judge, i wasn't really postive about this remix competition.
I was very critical about many tunes and wrote bad comments. I pmed PDM and asked if i could remove my comments and just keep it as grades ( i did made the grades a bid higher for everyone)
What i noticed with many people is .
lack of atmosphere.
Lack of orgianlity in the beat.
lack of emotion / feel.
And seriously the most pissing off thing , everyone tried to make the most weird lead sounds suddenly :S.
Don't know maybe my taste have changed.
For me the winner is remix 7.
By far the best, but men change the 2 lead sounds a bit :p
Untill next time :) |

I'm not afraid of your comments, lol, if you want Fahad, you can PM or msg me your comments. And your marks are really appreciated cause judge 2 was really unrealistic in his marks, and look at some differences in marking the remixes. Proves the unprofessionality of judging in this compo.
Don't forget the amateur character of this, Fahad, all just for fun. :) |

Congratualtions peep! there were some really good remixes, but I must say that must of them just ripped off the melodie from the MIDI and changed the synth of the melodie LOL, but good work everyone and thanks for the remixes :D.
And for my buddies, I was honest in my opinion about the tracks, so guys dont get offended if I considered it was bad your remix plz, all was done with good intention :).
Kopi =o. |

Your tune is to long, got a bit repetitive.
Your lead is presetish , you gave it totally 0 aspect , didn't stand out or anything. Almost every lead didn't appeal me in this remix competition.
You and J.L i give a bit of compliments of making nice background pad sequences.
Beat to generic also mate.
And as for the beat and lead sound..nearly everyone has that..especially the lead..i think this tune was a wrong choice to remix. |

| Now that you mention it, it was a little awkward for me working with the lead... but I doubt that was what really brought me down, more likely the percs :P That's why I stick to symphonic electronica :haha: Gotta love those timpani :D |

I see. Well as for the lead, one could choose to preserve the sound and melody of the original, as in most remixes of a track is the case, so I don't really understand the negative aspects of that. Made some counter melodies in stead of playing with the godlike original one. I do see my lead is a bit thin, but presets of it you wont find.
Anyways, I think judges personal taste involved a lot here. Why would someone remixing this want to change the melody. Especially with a remix like this, with this melody. IMO it's the counter melodies which could then fill up the creativity gap then. I'm not surprised if the judges didn't take this into account... |
