What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix.

I def like this one. The emotion created from the detuned guitar fits perfectly with the emotion from the composition. I've been waiting for really chill ambient piece for awhile. This def fits the bill.

[Platonist]

yeah, well the detuned guitar fits from one perspective, but my ears don't like detuned notes, makes me shiver (from pain) .. sorry . detuning = offnotes .. my ears ..

[ChloroPhil]

wow this is nice. I wouldn't have the tuning any other way.

[Armagedon]

I think this was an excellent piece. The detuning was a perfect selection with the style and ambiance. It also shows your understanding of other tuning methods outside of the norm. Great work

I think the tuning works wonderfully, but all of the other instruments wreak havoc on this piece. They sound like shit. The guitar work is nice and the general composition of the piece is a very pleasant listen, but I can't get over the terrible sound of the "flute" instrument and the "music box." Those really detracted from this otherwise great mix.

This is great. I'm digging the mix of Western melodies with more Asian themes. Almost feels like something I'd hear in a movie like Yojimbo. And the slight problems that some judges noted I feel only make the track sound more authentic to its intended theme/genre. I'm happy this got posted.

The lack of tuning gives this a really unique sound, I think it not only fits the theme of innocence better but also meshes with some of the other instruments more effectively than a perfectly tuned guitar would. I really dig the overall sound/atmosphere, this is a keeper. The only part that bugs me personally is the ending, just kinda peters out.

[MojoHamster]

The track is full of a total air of competence that I think dispels any myth the imperfect tuning is careless.

I think even if it was I wouldn't care.

This remix sets an example to any would-be remixer that no amount of production and tuning can save a poorly composed and unchallenging remix.

The guitars remind me very much of 'The Microphones' (See : The Glow pt2).

And whichever judge it was said the time irregularity sounded awkward towards the end.

GOOD!

Formula is the death of music.

I was a bit worried when I saw djp mention stuff being out of tune in the writeup, but I think it works surprisingly well.

It's not polished, but it's not supposed to be. Won't be everybody's cup of tea, but I love it.

Actually, my biggest complaint is with the whistle; it really would have benefitted from a bit more reverb or delay; anything to make it sound less dry would have been good.
