oi!
ok
finally got around to listening in on this
like when the first vocal sample dropped ...
I was like yeah! ... ok...
and then I realized I couldnt hear any bass
all I could hear was the beat mixed way in the back ground and the Peter Gabriel vocal
I mean.. no diss on your skills..cuz you have obviously have something going
man..
shoullda hit up games without frontiers
thad be nice
once again...
just my opinion

just curious as to what you are listening to it on man, sounds fine on my system. mucho bass & the drums are mixed nicely.
The production is what im worried about, Im pretty confident on the mixing side of things.

and like I said bro..
I think my issue is that the tune is my least favorite of Peter Gabriel tunes and I cant get passt my bias....
nevermind me,
carry on!!

the original tune is indeed a shit tune
thats one of the thingns i like about remxing
the ability to make somethig good out of something bad
treating data as 'found objects'

Id have to agree with Fester on this one
The arrangement, production, idea is great - It works really really well - and has a really nice feel to it.
But there is very little weight to the bass and the drums seem to fluctuate in and out of the mix somewhat.
not far off tho mate

feelin.
like the original and your treatment works -320 would be lovely for my set at hit&run manchester on oct 1st...?
can't comment on bass as my neighbours are a bit sensitive

... sounds fine in cans tho
all about the musical-step!

Hmm, maybe this is an artifact from myspace? To me the bass sounds just as weighty as any other dubby tune, and the drums nice and consistent.
I doubt there is something wrong with the mix, I've been doing it for years.
Heres my studio where I mix all the tracks:
http://www.myspace.com/celadonstudio
(fully calibrated room & ssl) - Im pretty confident about what i'm hearing.
I was looking for some criticism on the creative elements of the track, as the only thing I feel could be wrong with the production is that the vocal is extremely poorly stretched and glitches in parts - which nobody seemed to pick up on.

Maby the mp3 encoding is causing this
Listened to it on Alesis M1s and then on my flatmates Mackie HR824's
Like I said nothing wrong with the creative side just saying what I'm hearing.
But its all subjective anyway

Thanks for the input mate, I appreciate it.
I'll have another check down the studio today

It is most probably the Myspace compression and the mp3 encoding
I seem to remember having this issue before - a while back VIRB was really hit and miss when uploading mp3's

What does it sound like on the dancefloor? With a 320, I could let you know.
