Tron - Loading Green Beret (Takes Too Fucking Long RMX)
Alzheimer
About two years ago I had made the typical Vangelis lead in an older version of Reason. Just for the fun of it. Didn't do anything with it until recently when I found out that the measure in Vangelis "To The Unknown Man" is the same as in the beginning of the Ocean Loader. "I can feel a remix coming up! Oh gosh yes!"
I wanted this remix to sound old. As in OLD old. So not just a simple distortion over the end-mix, but making each instrument go past some analogue limit, narrow mixing, shallow sound, no advanced compression, simple arrangement… stuff like that. And of course some record crackles, warp and hiss should make it even more pretentious than just a tear jerking Galway melody over a Vangelis arrangement.
I thought I knew the original SID and the Vangelis track well enough make a WIP without listening to either of them. When Ziphoid was playing it on-air, FunkyM IRC'd that he recognized Green Beret. I thought: "Do UR homework dude. It's the Ocean Loader. Or… is it? Oh bugger, I mixed them up!". I hate being wrong.
I also hate doing fade-outs. Can you tell?
