Shouts
Boz shouts:
The overall mix is a little on the 'quiet' side - a potentially stomping tune like this could have had a little more low-end. The interesting bit where the lead becomes impromptu right at the end had so much potential, but alas, it fades out at this point
bastard shouts:
Smooth
SarahKreuz shouts:
Good one
hillsman shouts:
Not too bad - the bassline just about fits - stronger leads would improve this greatly. As Boz says, a bit more of that lead at the end would've been nice!
LaLa shouts:
Hmm, it's not really trance, and it's not really dance - the arrangement could use some direction. There are also too many high frequencies in the mix, or maybe it's the low end that's missing.

Overall rating

The overall arrangement, which closely follows the original's, does not go along well with the dancefloor beat, making it sound out-of-place. Re-arraning and omitting parts of it might be a good idea. In fact the bass track is barely audible, and the beat kind of lacks the boom and punch. This remix could be improved a lot merely by proper mixing and mastering.
