Your mix would be perfect for just about any other genre, but I found myself wishing for that highly processed 80s mix just dripping with reverb and synthesizers, especially as you ramped things up in the ending.

Having said that, it still sounded great with no changes at all... my comment is purely based on personal preference. This would be a great song for a remix contest because it has all the elements of a winner, and people could have fun picking just about any combination of tracks to run with on their own remix.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this song exceeded my expectations by quite a bit! Good job, and I look forward to hearing more from you!


Hi Pat,
Once again you analysed this song spot on!
The idea of this song was conseived in 1986. I never did anything with it, untill Floyd came up with "Hold on" I developed the song the last three weeks.
Now about that remix idea of yours... Why not? It would be great to see how someone else would mix, or even completely transform this one. So I'll be happy to share my BIAB, Reaper and Wav files with anyone who wants to have a go with the song![b][/b] Anyone interested Just send a PM???

So spread the word smile smile smile

Thanks for your encouraging words, Pat!

Fred
