Due to stupid copyright claims, I've been forced to remaster this song and re-upload it. Hope yall like the new sound better than the old.

If you're impatient, at least skip to 2:50. I think it's the cool part in my remix because it's where I chop up Hikki's voice and make my own melody out of it.

HS remix, the whole minute were great, but from 11 to 18 second not to clear .... the rest were nice . Maybe its because mp3 file, try with flac file i think its better.

Posted by DjPho on 2010/1/24 23:45:19

flac is better but also crazily uncompresssed which means it takes a lot of space and isn't convenient to share.

What do you mean it's not that clear? Do you mean her voice? I made it sound cheap quality on purpose.

Well with your remix, i don't mind to download flac file. If i can hear the whole instrument and her voice in crystal clear sound . Even though it will took 40 MB file for 1 music file.

dj pho, i commend you for your effort. to be technical, dj and producing are separate entities. as a dj, I am sure you are aware, focus should be on: track selection, interaction, and able to read the crowd. as a producer there are many factors to focus on as well as many technicalities such as arrangements, EQs, mix downs and masters but more importantly as an artist. Its good to cater to an audience but at the same time you can't lose your individualism.

Good mix though :)

Which DAW have you used? As well as VSTs?

I'm always curious to what others use. Consider it, the nerdy side of myself. B]

Personally, I enjoy Logic. Anyhow, I g2g at the moment. I'll write more in depth on your track. my focus will be not on your samples you've used but on your technique :)

ciao

True. I'll change my name when i get into producing.

What's a DAW? And I use Steinburg's Hypersongic 2, Vanguard, Genesis VST, and some others that i forgot.

What do you use?

Thanks btw for the tips. Loookin forward to ur other critique
