and i didn't either.

seems like some bullshit. 50-75% of those remixes sucked so
bad.

i found it pretty clever!

it's actually kinda humorous after hearing the original, but
in a good way.

good job!

yeah there we're some terrible ones up on that poll. I'm
surprised that Zeus' didn't make it. It was pretty good, not
the best, but I think it might of had a chance.

After hearing all mixes once (whilst stoned) I've narrowed
it to these:
13,96,110,141

man, its been like, how long since the due date?

In retrospect, there are a good # of things Id change in the
mix, so Im not worried about not making it. I see things now
that I think could be alot better (like the break down in
the middle etc)

110
143 (it's so cheeky and fun!)

no no, I was just mad, I'm sorry.

I can't believe anyone would hate on a contest and all the

Props to you all, I'm shutting up now. Totally digging 143

To be honest, it sounds like something they would do
themselves which is a good thing but the downpoint is it's
not that original,mind you it is a remix.

i never heard either, it is a remix of a particular song, or
just an AE track in general?

yeah...

well, Gantz Graf is one of thier tracks I dont dig that
much... so I took it, and tried to make it into something I
liked mored.

So yeah, I wanted to keep the AE sound, but just change it
:)

thanks for listening though!

Zeus: this is the first that i've downloaded of you (i have
56k so i don't download very much from here, which makes me
feel guilty) but i think that you do ambient so is this not
typical of your sound? i really like the song, it is
deffinitely much better and more listenable than the
original (though probably not as technically advanced). i
agree with skink in that it doesn't sound TOO original since
it sounds like you mainly cut up the original and
re-assembled it.

maybe tomorrow i will download an original track of yours.
what would you recomend?

Points: 1062 Status: Lurker



meh, i don't know. i think the remixes in the top 15 were
generally good but nothing out of the ordinary. and maybe
people generally like stuff that's within the lines of
familiarity. anything outside of it seems too weird, too
foreign - offensive? :)
not that there's anything wrong with that, but it can make
the people that are outside of that circle of comfort
realize that they can only please .0001% of their potential
listeners. that's how shit works i guess.


 

offline jenf from Toronto (Canada) on 2003-07-09 22:34 [#00772465]
Points: 1062 Status: Lurker



plus, everyone has their own idea of what a remix consists
of. listening to a lot of autechre's own 'remix'
interpretations, it can range from being pretty close to the
original to nothing like it at all. personally, i like when
someone really does a number on a track and basically
reinterprets what is given. basically creating something
completely different. that's cuz i like different. and i
know you can alter a few digital notes here and there and
claim it's different, but i mean REALLY different. :)


 

offline jenf from Toronto (Canada) on 2003-07-09 22:35 [#00772466]
Points: 1062 Status: Lurker



btw, zeus, i really enjoyed your remix. i think it was more
suited to my tastes than the ones in the top 15. just cuz
it's weird and makes me feel crazy. i like crazy. crazy is
good. a little bit of crazy in your medication goes a long
way...


 

offline Zeus from San Francisco (United States) on 2003-07-09 22:57 [#00772472]
Points: 14042 Status: Lurker



handover- thanks! glad you liked it :)

yes, I mostly do ambient... tracks Id reccomend from me...
either Sheltered, or An Animal Alone In The Snow.

Jenf- Glad you liked it :)

ironically, my medicine is trying to STOP me from being
crazy! ;)


 

offline jenf from Toronto (Canada) on 2003-07-09 22:59 [#00772473]
Points: 1062 Status: Lurker



and another thing, i dont see what the big deal is on
cutting up a track and then reusing it's bits and pieces?
why is that bad or somehow technically less-challenging?
doesn't it all boil down to whether it sounds good? stop
being technical nazis! :)


 

offline Zeus from San Francisco (United States) on 2003-07-09 23:02 [#00772474]
Points: 14042 Status: Lurker



when people say remix, I expect there to be lots of source
material... but again, we all have our own interpretations.

this remix is about 80-90% made up from the original track.
I did DSP etc, to change it in some places.

The only real thing not from the track, is the synth in the
middle, and like, one or 2 drum sounds.

hmm.. i dunno. you probably won't fancy it :) but what the
hell:
my remix

i do realize it gets a little messy near the end but i think
when i was making it, i was stuck in the noise moment and
didn't mind the clutter.

Even remixed Gantz graf is unbearable...what it needs is
some dear equalization...

valiant attempt though on your part

Agreeing much with what's been said so far... nice mix, not
that original, though.

Jenf's mix... I'm not atall keen on the opening synths. The
melody's nice, but the synths themself are very cliché and
a little annoying. However, the rest of the track is
excellent, I think. The way it all ends up as chaos...
lovely. :)

Nice work, i was dissapointed by the ones on the poll, not
that they were bad but that it was so heavily biased towards
an early autechre synthy sound. Electronic music has moved
on beyond that, i would have like to see some more modern
interpretations of some of those older songs instead....
any way heres mine....

downloading your remix now zeus + everyother remix in the
poll.

will let you know what I think of it later.

I didn't submit any remix because I have no autechre music
and know little of them. I heard some of their work and I
guess it's not my thing really.

all remixes will be online when the poll has ended. and I
KNEW people would get upset about not being qualified.

before this thing is over. even tho you didnt qualify.
