Title pretty much covers it. Just looking for some fun. If you're interested, post here or PM me and we'll talk about stems and whatnot. Looking to post the finished remixes up for free download in the future. Proper acknowledgement will be given ofc.

_Remixes

"Bass Music" by Comfi - In Progress
"Dark Mentality" by Sonika - In Progress
"Princess Paladin" by Wagsi/Sudden Takedown - Waiting for Stems
"Skittles" by Fbac/Randy Panda - In Progress/Waiting for Stems
"Ophelia" by Hutyluty/Deathtrap - In Progress

_Q&A

Q: Why are you doing this?
A: Because I enjoy the idea of remixes a lot and they're good for keeping the creative juices flowing, also I have a lot of fun doing them.

Q: What happens with the finished remixes?
A: They'll be uploaded for free public download to anyone who wants them.

Q: Are you profiting at all from these remixes?
A: No. As I said they're just for fun and the finished works will be up for free download.

Q: Will you use my stems for anything other than my remix?
A: Absolutely not, unless you want me to. All stems I receive are given with the understanding that I will be using them to make a remix.

Q: I'm kind of a big deal, are you just trying to ride on my coattails?
A: I choose to remix songs because I like them. How large or small a following the original artist has is of no importance to me.

Q: How exactly will you be posting your remixes up for download?
A: Through soundcloud and bandcamp. Tracks will be available for download via soundcloud as they are completed. In addition, I plan to release volumes of remixes on bandcamp in the future. Both sources will be 100% free to download.

Q: How do you credit the original artists?
A: Firstly I'm only doing remixes, so the original artist will remain the same in the track info and name (example: JoeDubstep - Steppin' Hard [TGE's Steppin' Harder RMX]). Also a link to the original track will included in the info of each remix.

Q: Can I distribute the remix you did for me myself?
A: Mostly yes, so long as I am shown the same respect in being credited as the remixer that I show the original artists. Matters involving labels and/or monetary gain are more complicated and should be discussed in greater detail on a case-by-case basis.

Q: You didn't remix my track. Why?
A: It either didn't appeal to me personally or I just couldn't figure out how to go about remixing it.

Q: I've decided I don't like your remix and I don't want you to distribute it, will you remove it from your soundcloud?
A: PM me!

Q: Why do you use the 808 so much?
A: Because I like the way it sounds.

I'll be doing remixes in a deep style, but what you all contribute can of whatever style you please.

How about this one? I kinda like it but i just never really got around to making it a bit less repetitive or interesting. Would love to see what someone else could do with it :)

@Comfi: I can definitely do something with this. Only stem I'd need would be that wicked atmosphere you have playing throughout. Also in what key is this track written?

@Wagsi: It'll take me a few to listen to them all, but so far I really dig Princess Paladin is would probably be up to remixing it.

How about either of these in my signature? Also, what DAW do you use (if you want to remix these and you use logic, I'll just send you the logic file, if you use a different DAW, I'll just bounce out the stems and send them to you)

What's buckUK?

Here's a totally rushed, totally unpolished INTRO for Comfi's remix to show you the general direction of my work.I don't have anything preexisting online because I'm just now getting to a level of comfort with my music that I'm willing to share it with others. :oops:

What DAW do you use?

I build my synths in Reason 4, resample them, do arrangement and apply effects in Ableton 8.

Definitely interested in Dark Mentality. Send me whatever stems you feel make the track what it is, and I'll twist them up into a remix (Def. include the vocal samples)

Why would people ask you to do a remix if they can't hear any of your originals?
