Commodore Remix

I have a bonus track on the new Blue Eyes (Blå Øjne) maxi single. The single is called Stronger (Stærkere) and the bonus track is called How Dumb (Hvor Dum).

It uses an interpolation of Poseidon: Planet Eleven by Jeroen Tel in the piano theme after the chorus. Also the bridge is based somewhat on the chords in the intro of Poseidon.

The single will be in the shops in Denmark soon, probably in 2 weeks or so.

Blue Eyes is one of the best selling artists in Denmark with more than 7 x platinum. There should be an album (hopefully) later this year.

I also have some plans for using the Dutch Breeze remix as a bonus track on an international release. That would be nice as I owe Jeroen big time for This Is How We Party with SOAP

I'll leave this link active for a few days.

It's in Danish, so unless you're Scandinavian you probably won't understand a single word. http://www.onlinemastering.dk/download/ ... or_Dum.zip, the file contains a 320 kbps mp3 made in iTunes.

Hey Holger, these pages are googled, so I reccomend another way.
If you like, I can put the link on a members-only page on R64.

Awesomely pleasant, without being overly complicated.

When does the video come out? The vocals have me intrigued as to what kind of girl puts out those angelic tones

Only kidding - but it's a very nice piece

Nice song, good remix and really pleasant to listen to!

I wish you all luck with it, Holger! - And I'm looking forward to hearing it on danish radio as well!

Thank you, the music isn't mixed although it sounds fine, the session was too old to be opened, so I mastered the demo.

The girl singing is Julie Rugaard (the act name is Blue Eyes), I posted a picture of her previously as she did a little vox on one of my remixes (Angel). I think she had a bit of cold on that track though. The also sang on a track I did with Yuzo Koshiro for Dance Dance Revolution 3 for Konami.

Here's a picture of her, she looks very nice (been there, done that, but hey now I'm a married man).


It's grabbed from the website (now under reconstruction) so sorry for the messed up graphics.

How obvious do you think the piano theme is from Poseidon? I think it is very obvious although it is only an excerpt? How about the bridge, can you hear the chord progression is from Poseidon?

It's more obvious now that you point it out, but I could have happily missed it, as it seems natural in its own right in the composition. But once the connection is made, I can see why it seems obvious to you... Less sure about the chord progression.

(PS - she's bloody gorgeous!)

This is one of the reasons I like the net. Normaly I would have never heard of this band here in North America.

Nice one, Holget! Quality as always.

Wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out though, but that's probably because I don't know the original JT tune that well.

By the way, the next installment in the series of "how to be a perfect gentleman".

Track is sounding great, but, don't know why, when i listen to it the singing of the word "incomplete" keeps coming to my mind

To be fair, I don't think he was saying he'd done it to her... just female kind in general before settling down. Right, LF?

Ahem, sorry that was rather ill mannered of me. I guess I thought I was among "the guys" here and let that comment rip It's just one of those perks of making music isn't it.

BTW the track isn't mixed since I couldn't open the old session but after mastering I was pretty satisfied anyhow. DHS, didn't get the Incomplete comment? Were you thinking of anything in particular?

Luckily Jeroen Tel really liked the track and we've found an arrangement. I hope to use more C64 stuff in the future, and not just Jeroen's stuff

It's good to hear that you're bringing C64 music to the masses (and I really like the track in general). There sooo many great C64 melodies out there that easily could become number ones.

I think everyone is wondering, is Julie single?

Really nice track, i let my wife translate some works i didn't understand, cause she is danish

I bet it has something to do with "love", "oh baby", and "why did you have to leave me".

Backstreet Boys song "Incomplete". Check their refrain, then check the one of your song.
