Yes, or well - I didn't think of it as a remix from the beginning, of course.
This guy Gezus uploaded the Acapella here and I fell immidiately in love with it and had to make a song around it.
THEN I discovered the original track...haha.
I'm so glad you liked it - I really tried my best creating this. Although there is still plenty of room for improvement.
Very interesting WIP! You're doing real good, reaching listeners from different planets and bringing them to this dark side of the moon. From start to finish kept the listen fun. Thank you for sharing and keep going when time is available. Peace.
What a nice review!
Thank you and yes, I'll continue refining this when I get my energy back...having some issues with that at the moment - Winter hibernation any one? =)
Great concept, musically you have it down, it's just in the mixing and dynamics that a little more work is needed. Bring up the percussion, lower the effected piano a bit (nice effect btw) But keep at it your almost there!
Yes! There is a lot to do to bring out some action in there with the mixing and the mastering is also very poor.
I'm hoping for some inspiration to continue with this - thanks for listening and for the advice Steve, and have a great day over there!
''SJ'' it's unbelievable to think U are just working on your first musical attempts ! this new one is verywelldone .
hey tell your kid , I wished to have such a talented mummy
who can compose after one year similar to people who have composed 21 years ...
greatest respects + highest adorations to U & your
tallents ''SJ'' .
best wishes.

Now this is different...and in a very good way...I can hear the tought that you put into the composition SJ...that widening on the kick is a bit unusual but really effective in this track...really nice job of the way you have the vocals and music interacting and the way the sounds are placed around the vocal...I`m listening with reasonable good earphones and the mix sounds fine to me ...SJ never stop doing the kind of music that appeals to YOU...and dont give a dm about what genre it seems to fit...The music innovators who have influence the world of music didn`t accomplish anything by trying to sound like everybody else...I love your musical imagination....keep on doing it...and a big well done to you on this one...Ed
Oh, this was as a serious and very warm hearted pep talk to the unsecure side of me!
I hear you Ed and thank you for that - although my shallow side still is hoping to some day accomplish something more commercial and not just odd sounding songs...but it seems that I really can't hear the difference anyway! =D
Maybe I'm doomed to create oddness.
Thank you so much for listening and putting your thoughts in writing, it really means a LOT!
Take care and have a great evening/day/night/morning. =)
Much much better. I love the drums. Even the piano was made to be softer in the mix, bravo. nice use of phase effects at the end, also much more compressed sound.
Good to hear, Steve!! Thanks for listening again. I kind of lost myself there with all the effects but one can always come back later and try again I guess. =D
Take care!
Hey, this is pretty epic! I like the synth heavy mix! The drums aren't bad, and I can hear that it's not supposed to be the focus of this track. Very cool stuff!
Hi Spivkurl and thanks for stopping by - I remade the whole thing and changed the drums so now they are more in focus. Or that's what I hope...
Thanks for listening!!
HI! Man, you are developing like crazy! :) I really, really like the first 'chorus' and comes back at 1:40 I believe. That's just awesome. The changeups I'm not so sure about. After the chorus i think you still need some glue. I mean extra chords to make it less of shock if u know what I mean. No problem to go to another key. But maybe a 'pivot' chord will do the trick. I'm not pro in arranging, but I use some basic schemes to help me write. I decide which rootkey a track is gonna be and write around that.
this scheme was really helpful to me, wish someone gave it to me earlier. :) Then when you decide another key is going to be the root note in a break for instance, (I) I think chord II and IV of your first choice key are used mostly to pivot it.
If you have an Smartphone I use an app called 'suggester'. Search chord progression in the app store. In this you can choose certain keys and build reaaally easy some chord progressions. Hope I've helped a bit! Maybe you can find some extra chords here!
All this is just a help, you're absolutely not bounded to such theory. Cheers!
You have to be an angel (or something similar to one...)
Thank you SO MUCH for all those advice and suggestions! I'm taking a small pause from this track now but will come back and all what you wrote will be very educational and useful when I continue.
Hi it's me again. Your English is fine. Yes it's very hard to master with a Daw. what I recommend is mix down to wave or aiff file an good but kind of neutral mix. than purchase a mastering program to pump up the mix.
If you go to : http://vst-club.com/vst-plug-ins-c-119.html
you can get IZotope Ozone Advanced 5.0 or other mastering tools . It's only $15 so it's an amazing deal

Keep it up it's a great song in need of a little dressing up. Keep me posted
Hi you again!!
Well, that is actually an affordable price so I will take a look at that alternative. Thank you SO MUCH for taking your time with this track!
And I already love Kate Bush! ;)
