This is sure a bold concept for a mix and it w o r k s !!!
You buccaneered half of the modern music history but it is really really convincing and one solid song!
The pace changes are entertaing, brilliant interludes and building up tension! The bass is bellisimo!
Strong thing

really thanks Wired Ant for your support. I’m glad you listened so soon this remix, I was curious to know what you think of this.

I loved the phrase “You buccaneered half of the modern music history” hahah :)

It is everytime the same: I´m just going to shoot down the Mac - and woops - new Diceman productions! Then hearing is a must, couldn´t wait ´til next day! And evertime it is worth to go later to bed

In the night i get the maximum inspiration, when the town is silent, when all the people are sleeping. I love the sounds of the night. And that’s why I am a night owl.

Well, thanks again my friend, you are really kind!

I like this mix of Ciggi’s voice.

Good feel and a good fit.

THis is the first time i used 3 different equalization of the voice, that triggers in different situations, for trying to keep the voice highlighted.

Experiments are fun ;) Thanks a lot Texasradiofish!

This is really quite nice, and very coherent/cohesive. I would not call it experimental at all, just creative. John Cage has a piece called As Slow As Possible began in 2001 and scheduled to have a duration of 639 years. That’s experimental. (And ridiculous.) This is very pleasant and just different enough to not be boring.

the cage piece is actually being performed, better counter here, bottom page. now that’s optimism for you.

Owhoops, I’m not very good at identifying the types of music, I used that tag as Joker… as a “passepartout”

So, i learned something.

And thank you for kind words.

PS: that story of John Cage is incredible, really interesting. To perform the song, they need 7-8 generations :D ahaha ridiculous, yeah, but tenacious!

Avete gettato un doppio sei con questo mix! E ‘straordinariamente imponente e originale - ed è al 100% di successo con la mia voce. Amo questo mix! Grazie mille, TheDICE.
