Isn't he the guy from Sigur Rós? My feelings are kind of split on this track. One one hand, it sounds very cool- huge, wide, thick sound. I like all the glitchy cuts on the bass and beat. But on the other hand, I think the elements you've added are slightly too... brash for the original version. I'm not sure. I do like it though- great choice of song for a remix- and you've done it well :)
Yea he was a guitarist / vocalist for them. I can see what you mean about it being a bit brash, especially if you compare it to the "quiet" version of the original, but it is a remix after all. Some might feel the original was too mellow for them, but they liked the melody, so maybe our version will fit their tastes better. Thanks for replying with more than just "I like it" or "Not good" like some do.
I never actually heard the original so I'm likin this. :dance:
The melody / beat is kinda generic, actually reminds me of Klaas if anyone remembers him. But maybe that's just because I'm into more underground artists / other genres. But nonetheless good job, the lyrics goes well with the song. Oh yeah as and said before, the glitch makes it a little bit more interesting.
Thank you sir, and yeah Klaas pretty much pioneered that kind of bassline. Wish I could pioneer a bassline :(
