Ah….I like this.
I can’t help myself - this could be a manga style scifi soundtrack.
Pretty cool mix.

Thanks very much, thats the area I was aiming for. A big over the top scifi track.

I could see this in a trailer for a space fiction. Very cool.

Love it. Reading your “how I did it” makes clear that you put 10 times as much knowledge and thought into this as I did into the sample. :)

To get an idea how old that lick is: it was done with the best sequencer of all time — Opcode Vision

Thats OK, I started out splicing with magnetic tape, cutting the angle to change the attack and decay.
I only came back to music around 2010, having done none in the intervening years.
I was worried when arranging the tune, but very glad you liked it in the end.

i imagine it must quite an honor to be your victim of interstellar sonic delight!!! i love the growing depth of the bass and rhythm. captivating. the melodies are so hooky, yet with enough variation to keep me wanting more, waiting for the next phrase. yes!! great mix.

Thank you very much!!
It was stressful mixing this one and I needed another ear to say it was OK, so thanks to ElectricLandlady.

I find this complete absorbing. This is my third listen now… Thank you for sharing your thoughts and process. You put so much into your mixes and it’s totally obvious. Very well done, QS!!!

Thank you, I try to respect the original source or concept, and although I create emotion or energy I cannot describe how I do that. That is more instinctive and feeling, so my music and remixes are left to talk because I am mute on the why and how. Its like cooking, each chef can use the same ingredients with different results. I am fast on the technical side and that is the part that I am left to describe.
The remix took about 4 to 6 hours, then I left it to set and kept coming back days later to add the topping.

From the first second addictive and intense remix. Excellent the “how i did it”.
