Commodore Remix

Isn't it funny how the same piece of music can be understood so differently by two people..

Can somebody explain measurements to me

I must admit that I thought Razmo was switching between 3/4 and 4/4 during the remix. During the Terra Cresta bit I count 6 beats per measure and during "his" original bit it switches to 8 beats.... am I wrong?

This is one thing I wish I understood..... 3/3, 3/4, 4/4, 4/3, 6/6! - it's all foreign to me

i don't think the consumer takes care 'bout that...

btw. i like the terra cresta remix from razmo, it sounds
fresh and has a good selection of sounds...
it doens't matter what for a measure he used, if it
sounds good like this remix...

YAY! This is a perfect example of how the occasional green smiley enters into the ratings of almost every generally well received remix.

You anti voter you lars

just kidding

now thats something i've been shouting about for a long time. Some people just don't like certain stuff.... it's the way of the world. Finally we get an example of it

ha! same thought there markus

4/4 is considered "Common time", 4 crotchet beats to the bar (count 1,2,3,4). 3/4 or "waltz" time has three crotchets to the bar (count 1,2,3).
Other familiar ones are 6/8 (6 quavers to the bar - count 1,2,3,4,5,6) and 12/8 (12 quavers to the bar - are you getting the idea now?)

Of course it's not always that simple - there's a piece by Sting that's in an unusual time signature 21/16 and then it changes to 23/16... try counting that in your head

I'll return later when I have more time and write something intelligent here... or something to that effect...

What about tubular bells - that switches between 4/4 and 5/4 almost every other bar lol ...

Well, I totally love this remix of the tune and being a non-muso didn't spot (or particularly care about) any thingy-wotsit changes within the track (whatever this hoo-hah is about).

Have you guys heard the version by Jogier Liljedahl* on Bit2? It's much slower than the Galway original but I feel this gives it a much more epic feel. My initial reaction to that wasn't "oh no, it's slower than the C64 version!!" - more like "f'kinell this is a bloody amazing remix!"

But hey, life would be pretty boring if we all liked the same stuff, eh?

* What ever happened to Jogier anyway?
