Reyn's GrandMix 2008 [1st of three]
Hello remixers and listeners!
In Holland there was this guy in the '80's and '90's called Ben Liebrand, who mixed all the hit songs from that year into a one hour long track. I loved those remixes, and I thought it would be nice to take new tracks from RKO and put them in one big long remix.
I took tracks from the first 4 months of the year and there are now 32 different tracks pressed into this first GrandMix which is 40 minutes long. If I would do all three Grandmixes this year every 4 months (to make the full year) in the end combining them would mean a 2 hour GrandMix 2008! Could be a fun beginning of next year!
I'm gonna broadcast the first remix next Thursday 28th of August at 20:00! Be on time!
And keep on remixing! I need the material! Let's make this a great Remix64 year!!
Cheers,
Reyn.

Hey Reyn,
That's fantastic news! I love most of Liebrand's work and I have quite a lot of the old "Minimixen" from way back when (twee platen over negen bij Curry en van Inkel!!)
as well as some of his CD's.
Does your Grandmix come with a Liebrand-style intro?

Ah Reyn great news. I'm sure to tune in for a little chat. It's the one I got the 'preview' from which is sitting in my car stereo for about 2 months? ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Yes, though it has way more tunes in it now. But still has the same length (40m)..Misser wrote:Ah Reyn great news. I'm sure to tune in for a little chat. It's the one I got the 'preview' from which is sitting in my car stereo for about 2 months?

Eventually I guess. Slaygon talked about waiting with a download after he did some reruns of the mix.Mayhem wrote:Looking forward to checking out the mix... will it be available for download afterwards too?
