here's a look at the original group, KAN WAKAN

They really have a nice lineup of instruments and talent.

You picked a good one to work with, Guenter!


Here's a live performance of the very song Guenter remixed:
SPACE OWL

I like this band!

Hi Dean, Steve, Josie and Charlie,

thanks a lot for listening and commenting. This is an incentive for my work.

@Dean: I already answered your questions in the thread "I Miss You".

Hi Pat,

thanks for hinting at the original group.
I like them, too.

Amazing job Guenter!! Although the original is cool for a minute or so, yours is much sweeter and richer. I feel yours highlights the vocalist (who is great) much better. Very cool!! Take care. Greg

Ain't it fun to play with some "professional tracks"?

I have to agree with the others here. This is really well done.

Considering that all the melodic content is either you or BB/RB, and using only their drums/percussion and singer..... nicely done.

I have worked a few of these kinds of remix "contests" and it's not about who has the best mix. To a larger degree, it's who has the most friends who will go in and vote for your mix. Still, they are fun and educational. I tend to learn more from this kind of project because you have to make BB/RB work with an existing track....

Very well done.... I like your version much, much better than the original.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

I'm late to the party but I'm very glad that I came.

Everything that I wanted to say has been said but I will say your vocals are outstanding as were your Garritan strings!

I am really impressed with your use of effects on your backing vocals, extremely well done!


I arrived early to a restaurant.
The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?"
I said no.
"Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

Hi Mario,

thanks a lot for dropping in, no matter how late.
The effects on the bg vocals are not my merit. They were on the original track.
