Story
This was an experiment at creating a "dj friendly" mix with some intro, break, peak and outro… I've been listening to quite a lot of great trance tracks lately so I'm in that trancy shape for now playing with some new ideas and techniques. You who don't like trance, well, tough s**t, don't download this! You've been warned. Greetz to you all who supported me in various ways via feedbacks, chat or by simply shouting in that little box. Thank you.

Shouts
Waz shouts:Very nice reworking of Jeff's great C64 tune with plenty of flow and feeling to make it very club like. And shortening it was definitely the right move for me. Another winner from Dafunk.
Your sound selection reminded me to Estuera (Jonas Steur). Very good work on remix.
k_rostoen shouts:I don't see any reason why this couldn't have been featured on a commercial CD. Great production and great tune.
Great production, very trancy. I just miss the SID-connection, or something like that...
I dont like trance - I LOVE IT - Commercial Quality - Awesome - Just the right length as well
Hmm, there's something very interesting going on with the chords. I do lack a connection to any SID-related stuff though. But it's so well done I just have to give it a VG.:)
eliot shouts:Kinda boring for me.
Great production - you should talk to Chris Abbott about putting out a commercial CD. Keep it coming!
Dafunk, you know the best I'm not keen of trancy stuff but this is absolutely lovely!!! *drooooool*
strider shouts:Boring and without any interest, except maybe for instruments
Mate.. You got my vote for remix of the year on this one, absolutely stunning... This would chart top 10 in england I am still in shock over how good this is... Welldone.
This is GOOD
Love the sound of this one.. It just makes me so happy
Great one Dafunk!
Absolutely gorgeaus!
This is without a doubt one of my top 3 favorite tracks on RKO. So brilliantly produced, you'd be hard pressed to find a single flaw in it.. Pure bliss!
Cool.

This is a remix, its doing whats said on the tin.
The first thing that strikes me is the beginning (funny that should happen at the start aint it.. way to make myself sound like roger ebert) but it smacks of all the large progressive trance outfits, a slightly dubby low slung stabbing and straight into the 4t24 drumbeat and slowly building up to a very very sweet vocal.
On the way to that point it has a beautiful soundscape which really does give it that clubby feel (so you succeeded with getting what you was looking for) and if I was still going out and getting drunk every week id definitely dance to this. So what about beyond? well lets talk about the mainline for a second.. genius trance work without a shadow of a doubt, its alot harder to write a decent trance tune than most people would realise (took me a while to realise this too) and dafunks done just that.
As I said in my shout this would chart very high in the uk charts, I'd even go as far to say that it'd find itself getting airplay on radio shows and sitting no1 in the dance charts before armand van helden re-releases another one of his tunes heh.
Technically speaking there isnt anything to fault, all the levels are perfect, the synths/drums etc clear and concise, no off notes no screw ups.. perfect production. and unless you really dont like trance music (in which case i 2nd dafunks "go away dont download it then") a damn good bar for the rest of the "dance" artists on this site to work from.
remix of the year for me without a shadow of a doubt, unless paul van dyke comes on this site and releases a remix, that accolade is safe :p
