I think its really good. =)

maybe because I've been remixing for almost a decade I am bias, but I think people should pay more attention to entries like these instead of whatever has power chords/almost resembles old LP. The remix that Mike really liked is NOWHERE near is popular. The stuff that Mike really was looking forward to hearing is kinda...not there or being outshined

Regarding the rules; I think I'm okay because the vocal enhancements it was referring to referred to personal assets, rather than the stems. I mean, people are changing things like EQ and reverb on the stem vocals so pitch-shifting is just another effect in that sense, if you see what I mean.

 

Anyway thanks for the feedback :)

Project name: Switchface

Age: 25

 

Here's my take on it. Some of you have heard the previous version. This is the improved one. I changed the overall tone ('cuz it sounded a bit out of tune) and I messed up a bit with the initial beat sequences. Apart from that everything was left as it was. In case you didn't hear the previous version, there's some synth / industrial touches here and there and the piano give a slight futuristic feel to it.

 

Hope you like it, guys! And of course don't forget to vote if you enjoyed this little mix :)

Well, thanks a bunch. Really enjoyed what you did with your remix. A nice job with the vocal pitch-shifting, which, I think, added a different twist, dimension (call it as you like) to the original.

 

zwieR.Z:

Thanks again, buddy. As far your mix goes, great job again. A nice idea with this guitar-wall pattern. Overall your version sounded to me like some sort of symphonic-metal track. I dig the piano melodies. Especially in the end :P A jumpy-folky kinda thing :) What I didn't like, though, was the lack of power / kick / room in the drum section. Apart from that, pretty good take on the track :)

Not like others, I had to record bass, cello and guitar with my webcam microphone coz I dont own any professional equipment so please excuse the "poor" sound quality.

What's a good remix software? Aside from FL studio :)

 

I've got a good idea for a remix, and i basically want to play around w/it even if i cant enter. What programs do the pros use? Please note that i know no real remixes, so i'll just be using the seeds and effects and maybe virtual instruments :)
