Makke - Glider Rider
90%
Since It's Binary, Baby! has gone off the radar for a while, I decided to release the remixes here on RKO. I will release one track per month in track order from the album. I decided to remaster the tracks. Not sure if they're better sounding or just different sounding, but they've been remastered from my original Renoise mixdowns.
Glider Rider was a big hit with my sisters' friends. This was played at a lot of parties back in the 00s. Listening to it now, I can understand why. It's pretty damn toe tapping, and the arrangement is interesting, with a lot going on every second of the way.
I wouldn't say I'm a happy hardcore fan, but I do enjoy a bit of 90s Dune and the odd Blümchen track.
Once again, that Akai DC Vocoder plugin came to good use!
Lyrics:
As we sail across the sky
No longer visible to the eye
We're free from reality
We are the ones you cannot see
Keep on gaining altitude
Higher and higher me and you
Until the Earth is a bright blue dot
Until each other is all we've got
Glider Rider in the sky
Take me with you for a while
Life is so hard to live down here
Take me with you way up there
Technique
Artistic skill
Nostalgia factor
