I did a blurb for cdbaby Jill. Been listening to it nonstop for the past couple days and drained my thoughts for you. Not nearly as detailed as Fishy's haha but it truly is an amazing album. =)

ordered a physical. Keep doing what your doing jill, you and yer amazing voice

I totally agree with that, I LOVE that soundtrack. Like I said its all about atmosphere and melody where appropriate.

Amen. Trance is the complete opposite of his style because its ALL about sound design. But the balance is a good melody as well. So many producers give the genre a bad name. If you can create an atmosphere, no matter the pallette, with a hummable melody, then you have accomplished something that has substance and sentiment IMO

yea probly, but they could fix the hair. it was one of those random thoughts while watching a movie. At any rate they shouldn't do it either way.

Seriously, when I first saw Legolas in Lord of the Rings I said "he would be perfect as Link." I mean that attitude and look, and his madd arching skills screams Link, right?

Simon V any of his stuff is great but his latest album "Because We Can" is one of the most refreshing dnb cds ive listened to in a while. http://www.simonv.com/music/release.php?id=64

that was gold. or goldin hehe. happy bday pixie

I've actually had an unfinished trance remix of this theme sitting on the drive for the past 1.5 years :-0 gotta finish it Anyway, I always love listening to mazedudes mixes and this is no different. His style, and sound choices, remind me of what got me into game music in the first place. Good work brutha

I want to do an updated temple trance that really rocks the clubs (i guess it would be like mkiii, but more like (2008 edition), but Im in the middle of building a new studio pc and have a few important projects to finish first. I got a bunch of other unfinished remixes that are getting there too. 2008 should be a big release year for me.

what a gay remix

Hey thanks man, thats an honor! Glad you like the track. I really wanted that one to have all the best pieces of the original but totally change the feel to something more uplifting. The original is a little darker in its progressions, but thats what made it good.

Pixie did the solo vocal, I used symphonic choirs to construct a fake choir. I did the best I could with east wests worldbuilder, and tweaked it for hours. I think it turned out alright but some say that its off, oh well what can you do?

Thanks for all your votes and support! We really appreciate it. To be even in the same playlist as some of those artists on a show of one of the biggest DJs on earth is really surreal. Expect more good stuff from us very soon Thanks again!!

No, but Ive always wanted to do a drum n bass mix of his theme

Hey! Thanks for all your support guys I appreciate the kind compliments and votes. We actually have A LOT of good tracks underway for Vega Projekt. Big thanks to Wu for pushing me on and hooking the goods up. The First Day is actually the only standard trance song we have done (with 1 other for a possible b-side) The rest are progressive. More of a house flavor with trance elements. Keep your eyes out for Vega Projekt as well as TONS of new remixes i have underwraps for OCR. Probably a good 7 remixes ive finished/finishing that no one has heard yet.

I thought the same. regardless, happy bday homee

Yea frikn Michael lives in my hometown. My friend works at the airport, and happened to empty the shitter of his plane. His bodygaurds told him to back away at least 30 feet from michael or else (and he is the one carrying the luggage, wut the heck dood). His boss came over and kicked michaels bodygaurds off of the runways permanently...

hey malcos, i sent the final mastered wav to shael riley already. You havnt received it?

well we just have different goals and different tools. I respect your knowledge about the technical sides of audio, they surpass me greatly. I know how to use my tools to get the sound I want, and same with you. But dont get me wrong, i do respect the time youve put into your know how and expertise. Anyway, I didnt really mean to attack you.

All optimaster is, is a finalizer like ultramaximizer by waves. The sound quality of their compression algorithm is insanely good and it really puts waves to shame. You would just have to try it to see what im saying. The limiter can be set to whatever you want. But on the pre-normalizer there is a headroom knob that only goes down to -.1db. Anyway thats irrelevant. When i say that optimasters compression is TRANSPARENT, i mean that there is NO squashing whatsoever. NO PUMPING at all... TbT?!! FREE plugins, now thats a big warning sign to me for a quality compression. Now if you choose those over creamwares plugins, you are just ignorant. I have a ton of trance vinyls that i have ripped myself mastered at -.2db to -1.db. You dont need to drag this conversation on anymore. Listen to my white skies club mix and you will hear the quality of the compression ive been talking about. Show me some examples of your own work (your own music) with your plugin choices and maybe ill respect your opinion more.

I didnt mean in terms of loudness. I meant that the compression of the actual audio to mp3 can cause slight peaks and jumps causing the "Red light" on a vu meter to turn "on". You can usually see graphically the limiting on a wav but if you open the same wav as an mp3 you can see that the limited wav has been compressed. Usually an ultra high bitrate on the mp3 will clip less (And when i mean clip i mean 0db) then a normal bitrate. And let me clarify again, that i mean VISUALLY seeing the clipping on a VU, not actual audible distortion.

Well compy Im not going to argue with your "expertise" but in the world of club music, louder is better. My white skies club mix is a perfect master for a huge PA. Any mastered wave (properly mastered) wont clip visually or audibly, but any kind of after compression for videos or mp3s or whatever, can cause audible clipping as well. It depends on what your mastering for. If you are mastering for vinyl that will be played on a PA then you can hit the -.1db mark. Creamwares optimaster plugin doesn even have the option of an overhead of -.2db unless you do it manually with a fader. And im sure the German engineers at creamware know a thing or two about their own mastering plugin. Not one plugin ive heard in a software environment comes close to the transparency of the optimaster....

You cant really judge clipping visually based on an mp3 since an mp3 compresses the audio even more. I master at -0.1db to its maximum punch without audible clipping but almost always the mp3 will clip on a VU meter, you cant trust it. And yes, inspector is a fantastic tool for this kind of thing.

Perfect... po! is ultra talented fo sho! great work on the concept and excellent work on you multi instrument playing. Keep the smooth stuff flowin yo
