My Oxygene 8 remix

[Doddsy]

Hi C64 music fans,

I've produced a Jean Michel Jarre track Oxygene 8. I didn't want it to sound exactly like the original though I've tried to retain the basic feel of it. I've called it; Transistor Radio Remix as you will understand why when you hear it. The track was done by using Eminent string samples put through a phaser unit from my S2000, a Microkorg for the main lead. Roland U220 for strings as well as a few overdubs FX from my A Station.

Enjoy,

Very nice and clean sounding track... I dont have the greatest Speakers or Headphones, but the track does sound a bit thin, would love to hear some of the Arpeggio's beefed up. Even the Eminent string samples sound thin.

Maybe others can give better advice.

Other than what I mentioned the track sound great.

It's ok Analog -x64, your equipment and ears are not deceiving you!
This track is an experimental track and is supposed to sound thin. On the official Oxygene 8 single release there is a remix that starts off with a low-fi sound so I decided to carry this idea to it's conclusion.

It's been produced as if you're listening to it through a telephone or other low quality speaker hence the remix name. I think the final result gives it a new feeling and dimension.

If anyone is interested I have a track that I have composed and produced by myself it is inspired by Vangelis, Jam and Spoon, John Barry and Royksopp. It was done after watching the season 1 Twilight Zone episode; A Stop at Willoughby.

IMHO, think remix would be much much better without radio effect Else, it is very good remix

Willoughby is good one, enjoying it Love the FX sounds in it
