Description : This is a remix(re of some kind more or less) for 'A Drowning' by How To Destroy Angels. I'll say I'm kinda hesitant to put it up. It's got some great sounds and new ideas, but I felt it was...not fully fleshed out in the end. Not to say it I don't like it. I've listened to it for the past two weeks before putting it up here. It's also not a quick remix. Nothing against anyone that does that. I'm just slow lol. In all seriousness, it was quit a bit of work. I can go on and on about how I set up all my instruments, the methods I used to make some string sections, etc.. The most I can say is, the first verse is more thought out than the second(only two in it). The bridge passage is from the original. That bridge really p*ssed me off. In the end I had to use the original tracks version. I'm not thrilled with it, but lack of creativity hits and its a punch in the face back to reality. The second verse is pretty back to form as the original. Not complex but felt like it put it back in place I guess. Then an outro that pretty much tails off. Most of what took the longest was the mix(s). Over and Over and Over... Headphones, Monitor, Ipod, CD... Just a constant "this still sounds like #####" mentality. It probably still does sound like ##### in all honesty. I'm my worst critic lol. I'm ranting now. Anyway, this isn't the final. I put it here to receive some critic and maybe another pair of fresh ears response. This isn't mastered. Just mixed. I don't think making it all compressed and loud is going to help. It's also going up in Orchestral cause it's kinda orchestral maybe? Idk.

This is a legal remix :D and the stems can be found at http://remix.nin.com

Track Detail:
All sequenced in Reason 4. Mostly all Orkestor patches put into splits and sub mixes. As always with stings the lovely Touch Orchestra Patch.

Thanks for your time and reviews. Cheers :D

Description : i am very happy with this one, i made a few of the drum beats myself, particularly the intro beat and the other slower ones. the idea for this song came out of no where, so i spent all night working on it, cus i knew the idea would leave me. let me know what you think ^^
-----
EDIT- i messed with the EQ a bit because looking at the digital display it looked a little wimpy, so i made it a little more beefy.

Description : Its a bit experimental. worked it around a sample from a Kill Kenada track that i messed with in gross beat. its now got a really dirty electro kind of bass feel to it. i then added some layers to it round 3 piano chords and tried to give it a nice funky feel, with some breaks for tension.
Have tried to master it slightly to try and tame some of those sounds, but to be honest i dont really know what im doing!

Description : Heres another one of me.
If you like mellow Instrumentals listen to this Track.
Its the normal Ciko stuff what you ever can expected!
I used a little bit of a piano, some strings, some french horns for accent in the hook. And some usual drumz and also some Orchestral Drumz!
Everything is composed by myself. No samples.
Hope you will enjoy your flight with Just Clownz Productions Airline

and take care

Description : This track was made using REAPER and various loops one my computer. Of course they have been highly processed, chopped, edited, effects, ect... and worked quite a bit. I may spend more time sequencing the track but overall i'm happy with the sound. Acapella is by ShawnLats on Looperman. Name of the Acapella is "Exercise 1vrs"

and ##### everything vanished !
waking up instantly and after some searching, relieved that it was just a dream, he had told me about the dream, and i suggested that we make a public service announcement!

Description : ... fall into the arms of my beloved. fire...

A bit of a hip-hop beat in a pop song. Thanks to the beautiful poetry of William Stringer (Radio_Dance) from Northern Ireland, without which I could not have brought this to life.

Less instrumentation than my other tracks... just the faithful keys and some vocal synths.

Description : started out with a couple of nice guitar and keyboard loops, then whilst searching for the right drum loop couldnt make my mind up - so used them all - 4 to be precise, may be a bit over the top but its differant ! then messed with the guitar loops and ended up with something else. Not sure where to go with this so any suggestions would be welcome.

Description : FINALLY done, a rebound of 5 remakings and a possible remix is coming out, so look out for that. I wanted a kind of chilled out mix with some nice 007 feels to it at the beginning and end. Put some vocals in myself, and used 1 or 2. It is done and with a new title :) finally, what a ride... took wayyy too long... BUT fear not, the upcoming track (Solar Flex) will blow your mind!
Thanks
Steve

EDIT: I limited the drum tracks to get them sounding louder, as well as the bass should be louder as well. I think I still have to make the pads and one or two of the synths a little louder, but other than that it should be done. Maybe turn the vocal down a bit... maybe. I still have to work on the drums a little more, utrn them down, as well as the limiter and compression.

Description : There's something about cerbera saw sounds and wobble bass that I can never get enough of, so I thought I'd put both into one tune. This one might get a bit more poking and prodding but at the minute am ready to unleash it on the world. Other tnan cerbera saw and wobbles this was mixed with a lot of fun with the Amen Break

Description : I am replacing an old track with a totally new reggae tune. The beat is apple loops and I jammed in poprockreggae-style, much like my band Grenserasta in the eighties. The vocals are an adlib in Swedish but I think they work ok.
Anyway – strat, precision and a wee bit of dancing, here's the result. Enjoy

p.s. Please note that the four first reviews are about the old, now replaced, track.

The lyrics are about the will to blow yourself up to kill other people and how stupid it is.

*Update* optimizied the mix a little bit

Description : This is a ballad about a dragon. The lyrics are german, the story tells about this dragon, who outflanked a village of strong warriors by transforming into a beautiful woman. At the end (the scene when the dragon retransforms) it´s a little bit terrifying (I hope so ^^)
Made with Magix MusikMaker. Samples from Magix. Vocs by me.
Hope you enjoy it.
