    Ideas on remixing shorter songs?

    in Music Composition & Production

    Posted

    When I'm trying to make a remix, the first thing I choose is a genre and then try to recreate the sound of (the popular songs in) the genre as close as I can. The main melody of the source is often still used as the main melody of the remix and then you add the complementary genre specific elements to the remix. Don't be afraid to copy popular songs, people will probably not even notice it since you'll be using different chords and instruments.

    I did one last edit before going into mod review. Mostly changes of EQ and effects.

    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO - So you mean to tell me I was listening to the wrong song this entire time? XD Okay - NOW I can hear what I should be hearing; and still, nice job here man. No real critique here - everything sounds as it should as far as I'm concerned so keep it up : o

    Haha, yes, sorry about that :P

    Thanks!

    Great to see an update on this. I kind of liked the more sombre, sparser sound in the compo submission, but the increased (obvious) source bits are quite welcome in the OCR context.

    I agree with you, it might even sound a little messy now.

    Oh well there we go! This sounds lovely. If it were me, I would bring up the snare a bit as it kinda gets washed out in some parts like the end section when the other elements come in. There are no problems with the source as it's clear as day, the Bison elements. I'm totally diggin this though I love the way this sounds I'll be dancing and enjoyin this for quite some time.

    And yes, please finish that other song as well, haha!

    =D

    Thanks for the input, I agree, probably should change or layer that clap!

    Nice to hear about the source aswell!

    Whoooooo. This is fuckin sick! Big ol grin(smile) on my face. Nothin constructive, just wanted to let you know that I'm droolin over this lol xD. Some of those wobbles sound pretty liquid I was lovin it. I'm kinda havin a hard time pickin out the source in some parts myself. A breakdown would probably help, if you feel like doin it. You could post it here and just copy and paste if you decide to sub it. And I totally understand the need to keep the flow of the song together. You're not finished with it yet though are you? The song ended kinda abruptly and I was sad when it did, I wanted s'more lol xD.

    Hahahaha, I was like, wut, wobbles? Then I see that I linked the wrong track :D

    Thanks anyway, that was an older original song of mine, maybe I'll try to finish it now!

    (Changed the link in the original post to the right one, this was the one BlackPanther was referring to: https://www.box.com/s/8e0u4ssq9cp8z8ge7kcw)

    Perhaps it's just me...but great production values aside the source is hardly there. Perhaps in the chords but... this almost comes across as more of an original work than anything; a pretty good one mind you.

    Length is good, it's varied enough in my opinion so aside from making the source a bit more clear I don't have any real gripes.

    Thank you :)

    I swear that almost every single part of the source is in there, although brief and a tad altered, but I totally know what you mean. I've tried to make it more obvious but it's hard to keep the flow of the track :(

    EDIT: I guess you too was referring to that dubstep track? Sorry for that :(

    I won PRC 175 with this (I was the only one submitting :D) and had forgotten about it. It's a melodic tranceish remix of M Bisons theme in Street Fighter II. I think it turned out really nice. Submittable?
