I guess you need something to justify those stupid cannons you have on stage which fire "cannonballs" over your head at climactic moments. |

lol nice pictures.
But to be honest, this is Hans Zimmer, and Disney or not, simply looking at the different stems and playing around with them has already taught me a lot about his sound design and compositional techniques. |

Good to know, when signing up for a free account I didn't see this anywhere. I'll try to download the stems tomorrow. |

beyond the experience of remixing the track itself, doubt theres much to be had in it, for those new to indaba. obviously they get loads of remixes, and just arbitrary select a few and choose the winners out of those. remember a few i participated in during the summer, and the ones in the top 10 were, at the very least, were mixed in a horribly amateur way. i heard many others that sounded virtually objectively better! |

i'd like to remix a Hans Zimmer track but i'd better go for Time, Gladiator or something of the like than joining one of this contest so that you get frustrated because a pop mix poorly engineered won. |
