I really like the deep and heavy feel of this mix! Those synths that start right from the beginning are awesome! It sounds like those vocals will be a tough match, you've got your work cut out for you! Great bass synths, they sound so cool! Smooth track! Nice work so far!
Nice to be hearing this, it reminds me a bit of mr oizo, but with a beach house feel to it. Probably it's a taste thing but I'd cut back on the grittiness just a bit or pull up the volume of the background layers. Sounds great overall, a tiny bit sad, it has the needed twitch of desperation to it.
Hehe...great intro,I don't know why but I kept expecting some crazy PsychoBilly voice to start...definitely a Halloween pleaser(well to the Yanks anyway,personally I like the spooky type tunes anytime!)......I've never done a remix sounds like fun..I hope you did well in the competition this sounds cool!..cheers mate Dave :)
Hey Damien...I like the minor chords and it's a departure from the norm...I'd have to say that the vocal inclusion is not quite right,using an acapella with a different key signature is problematic and it makes it even more difficult when the original vocal has used autotune...I like the darkish vibe of the music though!..cheers Dave :)
Thanks Dave,
Yes I am still tweaking this one now. I used a lot of gain to get the vocals over everything else and now I have brought back some of the bass, the autotune isnt highlighted as much. I would really like your opinion when I have made some changes, so I will let you know.
Thanks for your honest review

I am going to have to check out acapella section more often. It seems we are starting to put together quite the resource. The track is well put together (not a surprise). If it were my track, I might have effected her voice. I'm not sure exactly how at the moment. Anyways, it a simple matter of personal preference.
Mate liking the intro, good beat, like what you are trying to do here, but bass levels sound little high and distorted or something, in turn is drowning out the vocals and piano, not sure if that is the affect that you are after or not, but at this end not sounding the best, as you know I am a massive fan of yours my friend, loving all your works, but this one I dont know, just to me it is not the Trax that I am used to hearing...Peace mate...Estefano...
hey Estefano....sorry I have taken so long to reply....I am still tweaking with this one and yes my bass addiction is starting to show (lol).
I think the gain I used on the vocals is also to blame, but as I said , still trying to get it all together. Once again thank you for your honest review.

Wow loving this one right from the beginning! The bass is so deep and so special! These vocals and music are definitely made for each other! This is perfectly arranged and I love the mix! Perfect in all respects! Faved for sure!
thanks Spivkurl, yes the bass is quite addictive in this and I was really happy with Lismarie's vocals. A favourite from a fellow looper with you talent is an honour
thanks again

There are so many sweet elements about this baby. There are times when it reminds me of alan parsons and others where I hear a hint of the b52s. The track moves so very very well.
Wow this is sweet! I love that intense bass, it makes this remix flow so nicely! Great mix, it's so strong! Those sound effects add so much to the mix! Really like this one! Good luck on the competition!
Wow. Excellent job here, cant place my finger on what the sound is...it reminds me of something...but i cant remember...well it was a compliment. You have a lot of different sounds in there, its got some electronic, techno, dubstep, dance, and the one i cant think of thats my favorite part of all of it lol. Was wonderin if you used loops or made it all yourself. great overall track, lov'd every second. -Gabe
Thanks for your review...yes I use mostly loops in my work but do add to the beats and bass myself. I also use a lot of plug ins for filtering and distorting.
Cheers,

I would hardly recognize this as a song.
But I can learn to like this if not love it if I played it enough.
but its so mish mash that I would not play it as much as the original.
maybe slow up the pace some and rework the editing on the fills
