Story
In this remix, I wanted to add a somewhat Kraftwerkish sound to it all. Guess that's pretty obvious when listening to the tune.

Time spent on the remix was about three or four sessions, which make it a quickie. I perhaps should have worked more on the ending, and of course the mastering of the final .aif, but hey.. who said I was mr. patient?

(if someone wonders about the name of the remix.. well.. I like different sounding names, and since I actually did tweak some knobs on my Oxygene8-keyboard when making the tune, it just happened to be named as it is. So there.)

A nice idea with some great background effects and a lovelly crisp clear sound. The main problem that lies with this remix is that the lead doesn't do it justice. You can easily imagine what Wobbler was attempting to do, but he's just fallen a little short with a lead instrument that doesn't quite hit the mark.

The tune unfortunately is a little too repetative too, with not enough changes through out the piece to keep the interest levels up.

All in all a good effort but just falls short on some aspects.

While i don't really like the Kraftwerk sound too much, and while it's easy to recongnize a standard Reason refill "riff" and drumpattern beneath the tune shape, i really love this remix.
Wobber is a great remixer and his tunes always sound catchy and clever, played with crystal clear and "sexy" sounds; anyway this time his music sounds a bit different, probably darker and quite cold, but the result is as usual very unique and, by all means, unforgettable.
I must repeat, i really love this remix; every time it happens that i listen to it on Slay Radio it's like a cold blow of wind in my face: if you prefer hot summer days keep away, otherwise try to "feel" this Wobber's work, i think it deserves your attention.
