I can do a review (listened a few times but not closely enough to a review yet).

I'll be hard but unfair

Okay, wrote a review.

Hope you find it helpful, gave it an overall "good" rating but since it's a 1:1 cover with none of your own true ideas it's not going to ring my bell.

I think you have potential for some original ideas, it would be cool to hear them implemented in one of your future remixes.

The overall sound is getting better since you started remixing (listening to your older stuff) with better mix quality etc., so way to go!

But DO choose a better lead synth next time.

Thank you, your thougts are very helpful, I keep them in mind, but I add some new parts to the tune, like a new Bassline and a Outro...


btw. I LOVE such lead sounds..Meeeowwwwoooww, sorry....

Yeah I noticed, also the drums are generally very "easy listening electro" on most of your songs, it's just your style I suppose. I prefer more distinct leads but of course they might not fit your easy listening style as well as a more soft one.

I try to create a unique style, of my own, so every remix is a step in
a differen't direction, mostly forward (I hope)...

Your thougts are very helpful for me......

Great, I'm glad you can use it for something, though of course you should always stay true to your style if you feel it represents what you want.

Delta is a popular remix to tackle (as I mentioned in my HITTING THE HIGH NOTES column for Remix64 - better get writing the next one!) and the high score tune has those nice arpeggios which give it that sunshine feel.

2Klang, a very good effort, the electro-drums hit the spot. The only criticism I would have is that very weak-sounding sequence of high notes towards the end - I don't think it adds anything. I know it's been overdone, but a choir/vocal sound doing the held notes would have finished this mix off nicely. "Ahhh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhhhhhh" - if you get what I mean.

Well, I was going to write something, but it would pretty much end up being the same as Lagerfeldt's comments. It's a nice enough remix, but nothing spectacular, and the lead is very weak. Part of my problem with this mix is the track itself - I personally reckon your style lends itself well to more uptempo numbers. The Tube (FM Mix) has plenty of 'oomph' but the Delta track ends up being fairly wishy-washy electro.

I'd most likely rate it:

Technical: Good
Artistic: Good
Nostalgia: Very good
Overall: Good.

well, watch out for my 'Delta (Zwischenfall Mix)', which covers the
Delta maintune, it's a uptempo number..... it should be appear at
R:K:O: within the next days......


btw. Thank you all for your fair feedback....

Oh, and what exactly was the intention of the Mann im Mond subtitle??
