My second remix for RKO

It all began with me finding a nice choir sound and started to play around with some random melodies. Then I found myself playing what later became the intro to this remix.

After that, I just continued and dressed the rest of the song in some kind of techno style. I tried to stay faithful to the original while rearranging it some and spicing it up a bit with some more energy.

Made with Renoise using mostly Nexus, Massive and Vanguard as VSTis but with some Quadrasid, Crystal, GTG_PD9 and Edirol Orchestral in there too.

I'm pretty satisfied with the result, however I feel it lacks something in the middle maybe. I do however like the last part where I gave myself some creative freedom and went all out on the number of voices and arps.

Yes, I know that the last part isn't totally true to the original song but instead a mix of The Mansion / The Wilderness with some ideas, bits and pieces inspired by other remixers.

All in all, I feel it's closer to what I'm capable of than my last remix (Bulldog) but I'm still not there yet. I have yet more to show.

Personal favourite part of the song: The bassline going down just before the last showdown of the song.
