Story

I checked out the creation date for my project file for this remix: 14.02.2022. So I guess you could say it's been a long time in the making!

That's what I call a remix in 2024. Always insert vocals from the opera. One of the best Eivind remixes.

I am going to be a party pooper here and bring this remix down a notch. It sounds great, but it also sounds like you threw everything but the kitchen sink at it, and as a result, artistically it's all over the place, and doesn't sound very cohesive to me.

The individual instruments all sound amazing, you made them bring all their fitting articulations to the table, from the trumpet to the solo singer.

But. 😁I also felt like I should've kept a live instrument count on this track as it progressed. Solo trumpet? Check. Big mixed choir? Check. Electric guitar? Check. Solo violin? Check. Big brass? Check. Acoustic guitar? Check. Female choir? Check. Gated synth bass? Check. Orchestral strings? Check. Solo female singer? Check… It's like you went down the list of all things that make something sound epic and cinematic and you decided to check all the boxes. When I first heard this remix it made my head spin! I am getting used to it as I listen to it more and more, but still…

Again, from a purely sonic perspective, the individual sections all sound fantastic. The entire tune is mixed to perfection. But I think it's just trying to cram way too much into 4 and a half minutes.
