Guenter,
I seem to say the same thing every time you do one of these...
I listened to several of the other remixes - and found them almost unlistenable. All that seemed to matter to them was THEIR BEAT. The singer meant nothing - and the words seem to mean even less.
Your remix is immediately interesting. And the singer (and song/lyric) are immediately brought to the forefront. And you still manage to have a good - and very interesting - beat going on (nice job of making the salsa drums carry that beat!).
You made the singer shine!
The added strings and brass are nicely done. You are talented in so many ways! Your bass has punch.
Great job. A truly enjoyable listen...
floyd
edit - I did go back and listen to several others - there are a couple of nice ones (FLVRTOFFICIAL's is nice - and Eliot's is interesting)... still not close to yours, though...

Excellent work and as Floyd said, your mix shined against the others I listened to. Good luck with the contest. Charlie

Excellent work Guenter.
You certainly have a way of giving great dynamics to the mix. This doesn't come easy, I know.
I really liked the flute, sits perfectly in the song, and the brass works so well too. A lot of work, and a great result.
Good luck!

Guenter, You are definitely in the expert category with these remixes. Nice job on the strings and brass. The flute is well played. You really managed to get a lot in there while still letting the singer carry it. Another fantastic job. Tom

Hi Floyd,
thanks for your generous review.
"You made the singer shine!"
That's why I do these remixes: to have good voices. And I don't want to hide them behind the music.

Awesome. Guenter, we know you are a pillar of
this community and that you receive a ton of
accolades for these remixes. It's hard to add
to what has been said. BUT like floyd mentioned
the attempts done by others are virtually unlistenable
compared to what you have done. Janice and I
are again simply amazed by what you have
accomplished. I've said it before but it's hard
to fathom the amount of work that must go into
these remixes. And, of course, that work must
be driven by a very high level of musical talent.
GREAT listen.
J&B
PS Love that rasp (I think that's what it is) in
the percussion.
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

Hi, Guenter. I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said, so I'll just say, "I liked it!".  Thanks for the music, Dan

Floyd has hit it right on the head with his comment here. I completely agree. I am busy listening to some of the other mixes right now and Floyd is right. They are unlistenable. Definitely not my style of music but your remix makes the vocal stand out.

Super job! With these remixes you're making me like a vocal style that I didn't give much credence to before. Where they seemed too "sugary", you have highlighted the passion.
And I love that percussion that is keeping time through the song like a clock ticking!

I listened to the original (vocal) and I could not imagine that anyone could do anything to make this appealing to me BUT YOU DID!! I love what you've done to this. I can't imagine anyone could do it better. Killer!! Take care. Greg

Hi Guenter, This is an exceptionally well put together remix. You have a knack for creating the perfect soundscape to showcase a vocalist's talent. If I were the singer of this mix, I'd be like that fabled cow and jumping excitedly over the moon when I heard it. I bet those who created this song could never have imagined it sounding so brilliant. In a word ... fantastic! All the best, Noel

Hi Lawrence, thanks for your nice review. And I love that percussion that is keeping time through the song like a clock ticking! This is a sample of a ticking clock. You are the first to notice that. Guenter
