DragonAvenger Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 halc & anosou 'Kingfisher's Stream' Donkey Kong Country 3 (SNES) Source: Cascade Capers (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdUtGiJwA00&) halc's comments: "This was a fun track to make.. a while back, Emu proposed the idea of a collab with Mattias on the SNES Cascade Capers theme. Obviously, I was obliged to take on this epic request and whipped up a short intro (which went untouched for months ). Mattias finally sent me a slick little update about a week before the final deadline, which I expanded on and used as a basis for the rest of the track. I was happy to take the lead with this mix, but I must give uber-props to anosou for some killer additions and arrangement ideas- I couldn't have pulled this track off without him (A++, would collab again, etc.)! We're both very proud of this mix, and we hope you all enjoy it! :3 This mix was lovingly conceived in Reason 5 and FL Studio 9 (The Best of Both Worlds!™)" Mattias' comments: "Drew's a bag of sex. A bag of sex capable of doing some pretty amazing music. It was a pleasure and an honor to work with him! PS: Did you get the title-pun yet?" ------------------------------ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdUtGiJwA00&feature=player_embedded#at=15
DragonAvenger Posted April 14, 2011 Author Posted April 14, 2011 Little to say about this mix except that it is pretty damn solid. Quality work from both mixers, you can't tell that this is a collab just from listening, meaning you two are working super well together. Source is treated really nicely here, and I love the background, as anosou writes so nicely himself: [11:34] <@anosou> BAOW BA BA BAOWOWOW halc BAOW BABAB BOABOWOWOWOWOW anosou Balance is clear, soundscape is fitting. I'd take this to the dancefloor. YES
OceansAndrew Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 sidechains, wubs, chiptones, and ethnic instruments? What a cool mix! Nice source treatment, and cool collab. I think it is very good. Yes
Liontamer Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Delightful. Very groovy, with the source in play for most of the track. The arrangement felt like something of Mattias's with the halc 9-bit spices added in, with the groove really feeling like a signature of Mattias's. Excellent work! YES
The Orichalcon Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Friiiday, Friiday, we so exciiited. Wrong song? Well this one's nearly as good. I kid, It's a little better. Excellent production, arrangement and enjoyable-to-listen-to-ness. Should've been D(j)P'ed. YES
