Update

Version 2 is up (http://www.tajikgirl.net/ccricers/stuff/PWTrialWIP-2.mp3) - and back on a good host for files

Original Post

I'm just beginning to improvise on the arrangement. For now I'm trying to get most of the sounds down pat. Maybe you can tell what type of sound I'm going for. (hint: Wildstyle Radio)

Later on I will probably add the prelude music since it's so similar, and some motifs from other music. It's still short, so give it a listen!

haha this reminds me of a old us 80s police drama! nice style, it could be an awesome intro montage for a tv show as it is ahah.
definately gonna be keeping an eye on this. it has so much potential and already is looking pretty sweet.

Groovy! I haven't heard the source so I don't know if it's too close or too far from the original, but either way it's really fun to listen to. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

[CC Ricers]

Thanks for the comments. Yeah, it's looking pretty 80's so far, which is the style I was trying to nail down. Jaybell, this mix follows the source closely as of now. Though the people that are familiar with it would be able to hear the small embellishments and changes I made. Next update will be sometime this upcoming week.

Ok, sounding better now.

I removed a lot of reverb from some instruments. I'd figure that this would make the pacing sound snappier. And by kicking up the tempo a slight bit. New brassy synth instrument for added chords, and better sounding leads thanks to some EQ and delay processing.

I like this a lot -- I think there's still some production work to be done, but it's coming along very well. My favorite part is the bell sound in the upper register -- you should improvise more with that instrument.

I can see that there's a lot of anticipation for this remix.

I think there's still some production work to be done, but it's coming along very well.

Can you be specific as to where production needs to improve the most? For example, the drum parts or several instruments. I've done a lot of work on the EQ and stereo panning to make it sound "bigger".

Also, no longer using YouSendIt for my files. Back to a more reliable host!

Great track so far :D Has a bit of a Sierra/Leisure Suit Larry/Police Quest feel to it.

nice the two wips could been seen as season 1 and season 2 themes if this was a tv show! the changes are nice between the two and its really shaping up well.

Nice embellishment of the source, when I heard the opening fill I rolled my eyes a bit, but as it progressed I got a taste of the 80's vibe in there. Maybe make that more apparent initially, since the totally mechanical opening fill initially registered as "omgbad" rather than "omg80s".
My suggestions would be to add a van halen style guitar solo (since so many 80's songs had them, even if the genre didn't call for it) and double the bass with some slap bass in some parts.

Nice work it's coming along really well ;-)
