Posted: Sat Jun 28 2003 23:02 QBical - The lake (Sunbuster after eight remix) |
 |
So, time to do my first piece of promotion on here
The subject at hand: My remix of QBicals brilliant lounge tune "The lake" (which you can find in the music section here or on his homepage )
Started this remix a long time ago (sometime last autumn, after QBical asked me if I was interested in doing a remix), and now finally got around to mastering it. Let me know what you think (btw. It's got a 4/4 beat, so if you're totally utterly against this type of music, don't download. I don't want to be sued for causing a heart attack )
http://www.gnejsi.net/music/QBical_TheLake_saer.mp3 (160 kbps, about 9 MB)
http://www.gnejsi.net/music/QBical_TheLake_saer_lo-fi.mp3 (lo-fi versions for the ones with modems 64 kbps, about 3.6 MB. it sounds crap of course, but you'll get the idea )
ps. the tune is also available on my homepage. There's an .ogg version of it there also  |

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

I love it!
I couldn't tell that it was 4/4 (You mean 4 lines per beat, right? It sounds like 8 lines per beat)  |

Glad you liked it
4/4 beat is just an expression I've heard for music with a dance beat, don't know exactly where it comes from  |

I've seen 4/4 on sheet music. You know, the ones with the Treble and Bass Clefs and all those rests and 8th notes, etc, ect. |

Nice overall mix and tracking skills, although the track is slightly non-descript, as in I didn't really get the theme and it seemed difficult to remember once I finished playing the track, could just be me where I need something holding the track a little more. Very ambient house. I would say it needs a vocal to make it stand out but who am I to say.
Nice work though.

Cheers for the link
em22: I see where you're coming from. That seems to be the case with most of my music, it's difficult to remember the tune In this case though, since the original created a very distinct feeling in my head (read my review of the track in the music section ), I wanted to focus on the feeling, and not that much on getting a distinct hook line into the mix.
But thanks for the comments all of you
(btw. I would be very greatfull if you guys took a couple of secs of your time and hopped over to my site and gave it a rating there too, since you've listened to it and all and maybe rate some of the other tunes on there also ) |

w00t. Nice tune. Almost got me to admit liking that style of music, which is impressive.
Why doesn't anyone use this one?
I think it's neat
Look! over there! ......
Ha ha ha!
Uh oh! Yannick is going to delete this for sure!
Damnit Yannick, don't do it

Inge: yeah, a subsection. First time I saw it, I was like "Yess! many more emoticons, a cult shall be formed!" then it loaded, and I was like "huh!? that's it?? only two more than the regular set?". That's when I decided this is the place where bad behaving emoticons get sent Seems only mrgreen and undecided behave badly in this forum...
to get back on topic, I know there are more than 8 people browsing this forum, so why are there only 8 votes? comments on the tune people, please! Makes me much more willing to comment on your tunes later on also  |

Really great jobb! I would believe that it is a tough tune to remix cause I think that QB did a great jobb in making a very distinct atmosphere on the original. What I like about your remix is that you bring a more ambient floating feeling to it, and also that fact that one can hear that you make it your own. I think that you do a great job on letting the different themes intertwine, and keeping it interesting and pleasing to listen to, not only the first time.
I`ve had "Instinct" on my desktop (for easy access) for some time now - and I was glad to hear that you`ve incorporated more acoustic sounds in this tune. I`m thinking of the piano and congas? - they really bring it more to life in my opinon - and I kinda wised you had added that to "Instinct" aswell
I wish I could make a track half as good as this!
