Long time overdue checking out your tunes, and I must say... can't stand the original, but your remix not only makes something listenable out of it; it makes it good. Kudos to you and Mahloo.
this is whats new and fresh id have to say...and im with shortbus and tumbleweed on this....im also no expert on house
music but i do no what i like in a song, and yours is the best
on the loop....peace...
You two make really good musical company...this is pro stuff WongKiShoo....kudos to you on the production values here too...super job...can`t go wrong with patricia at the mic but the music really kicks the whole song waaaay up...now you are corrupting me with this House stuff just when I was wallowing comfortable around in them Blues....I`ll be back over here when I need some lessons in the genre....top marks....Ed
Commercial is exactly what I was going for so I'm actually really pleased you said so.. :D
I really admire Calvin Harris's work and for you to say that this is better than the original totally blows me away..
If I want a bank balance like Calvin's though (which I do), I'm gonna have to keep on doing this kinda thing and pray to the God of Music for a break lol
Thanks a lot for your thoughts man :) Now on the way to return the favour
Another wonderful composition here. I have "Your House is Dirty" on a few mixes and have mixed it into a couple of sets at clubs in Western NY. I love your sound, such classy house with terrific melodies and a crisp sound. This, with vocals, is prime time. It's been a pleasure hearing your tunes, I'd love to have this track some day as well. Keep up the brilliant work!
Wow, now there's a track I haven't heard in a while. I had no idea that it had been played in a club, I'm kinda surprised you thought it was good enough tbh lol .. so thanks! :D
I am pleased with how this one turned out - and even more pleased with the fantastic response that this has had! It's reviews like this that make it all worth while. Thanks again man!
Hey WonKi...I`m a bit uneducated about the electronica genres including House...but when music sounds good my ears perk right up whatever genre you may call it...this one evolves really nicely...sounds good this Wed evening over here...and kudos to Mahloo13 on the production..everything is right there, nice & clear with all the life still in the sounds....great stuff guys....Ed
Oi Oi Wonki ! As ever my friend this is your sublime take on the genre. Respect mate, yet again you have made a professional sounding track. It's commercial but it works. Handbags at dawn young man, handbags at dawn. Well done Wonki cos you have yet again proved your total musical & producing talent.
Thanks for the kind review dude :) Commercial is what I was going for (and probably will from now on) so I'm glad you pointed it out really! I had to look up the meaning of the phrase "handbags at dawn" .. I'm still confused lol
Thanks again man, it's always nice to read your reviews :))
Epic track as usual. You've got mad skillZ, bro!!! You need to start getting your stuff to A & R reps so you can start making the mad stacks of cash (and hotties) your talent deserves.
But yeah.. once I get a couple more decent tracks under my belt I'm gonna start sending 'em out to peeps n see what the crack is. I'll get there eventually - I hope :))
i was riding around the site like i usually do ...and stumbled across a post from FreeRadical...it said to check out your newest track...since i've never heard you before..i decided to check it out...i'm really glad i did...Super track man great mix..Now that's House!!! say hello to your newest fan!!
i was riding around the site like i usually do ...and stumbled across a post from FreeRadical...it said to check out your newest track...since i've never heard you before..i decided to check it out...i'm really gl
Christ, I need to clarify my statement, "your "house" tracks are the only ones I will listen to....the rest just don't cut it."
I listen to all of your music, not just your house tracks, and all of your music makes the "cut" :) I will only listen to the house genre on your profile because most house music by other people loses something for me in translation.
So I guess I am saying I love your work and am a fan...hahaha. I'm an idiot :)
HAHA! It's ok, I understood what you meant first time round, but I can see how a less egotistical person than myself could have misread the praise for criticism lol.. ;D
But to answer the first post:
You're very kind to say I'm ready for the big time, I won't lie - it is a secret ambition that I harbour, who knows, maybe one day eh? For someone who doesn't really listen to this kinda stuff to say those things has added weight in my opinion :)
I hope you know your "house" tracks are the only ones I will listen to....the rest just don't cut it. So, that probably would mean that you are ready for prime time. If you can convert me, you can convert just about anyone.
I'm a house noob, but this one has all of the right elements sitting in all of the right places, an absolute A+ on the production side of things.
Bravo maestro. Freaking awesome. Good to see you back.
Now this is how it should be done. Nice work! The mix sounds pretty darn good as well! You might not have to wait to reach 43 years to take the industry by surprise like Guetta! Lol!
Loving the changes in there and the arrangement is really cool! Would be killer with a rapper in there as well to change the sound a bit. This is going in the favs!
If I get half the success David Guetta's had, I'll die a very happy man lol..
A rapper *would* be a great idea. If/When I turn it into an original song I'll be sure to put the word out.. Just need to find the right singer with the right lyrics first.
As for the mix, I'm glad it has your seal of approval! If you get bored/have nothing better to do - you can have the stems if you like? Just lemme know :)
Class class class track you have her bro! Absolutely friggin awesome! Love those synths and stabs. Absolutely incredible track man. Youve done a fantastic job with the mixing here. You’ve really turned this into a hit! Congrats to both you and P.
Another bloody good effort here Wongki. in fact i've never heard anything you've done that doesn't sound great.
There's an almost oriental kind of feeling to this at times which is a nice touch.
Who's Logan P then? Another member? I must check him out sometime.
Thumbs up homie!
FR
Logan P - I don't know his username on looperman, but that's the name he goes by on soundcloud.
He contacted me a couple of months ago to do some mixing and mastering for him and I was bit disappointed by what came over to me. His tracks were raw, but *full* of potential and by the 3rd one (this one) I took matters into my own hands and sorted out the bass, pads, structure, percussion, filters, FX etc etc annnd this was the result. It came to me as 12 tracks and left me at just over 30 I think lol
He'll be an awesome producer in a couple of years time - just needs some finesse :)
This really does sound like a pro effort now. It was good anyway but now it's really good.
You should get some test pressings made up and mail this out to a few pro DJ's. i reckon the likes of Rampling, Morales and Tenaglia would drop this tune to name but a few.
Mr Mahloo did a great job with the mastering, What was it? Pro tools?
Anyway, this is the first "no download" tune i've heard all year that's actually worth nicking so there's an accolade in it's self ha ha!
FR
It's amazing what a good mix and master can do to a track isn't it? I used FL studio to do the track, as for what Mahloo does his end, I haven't a clue. What ever it is though, it bloody works.. lol. As for sending it to big DJ's - I'm hoping I won't need to ;)
Don't worry that you haven't started the remix yet man, just do it whenever - I'll be honest, I haven't started on yours yet either lol

Your remix of this Calvin Harris track is great! In fact, I actually think it's better than the original.
Having said that, I don't think that "Bounce" was a good tune to be honest, too commercial in my opinion.
I think your work has much more to offer than Calvin Harris!
Commercial is exactly what I was going for so I'm actually really pleased you said so.. :D
I really admire Calvin Harris's work and for you to say that this is better than the original totally blows me away..

i don't know how "raw " the tracks from Logan P are ,
but this remake is very good
its like the style of tiesto or armand van buren
( also from The Netherlands , like me)
feels like i'm standing on a big crowded party like "sensation- black edition "lol
100 thumps up !!!
for future reference - the words is "thumbs up" ... "thump" is when you punch somebody, or it could also mean a loud noise lol ;D
