Garpocalypse Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 (edited) Congrats on getting posted Mak! Awesome mix. Just a bit abrasive in some spots but otherwise very cool. Edited June 27, 2012 by Garpocalypse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 The Ecco series has some of the most high quality remixes on the site; happy to say this doesn't break the trend. Excellent, excellent mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 This mix oozes industrial, and yet that lead synth is a curious choice for a primarily industrial take. The song is built pretty solid. The guitar playing is for the most part solid (although I noticed a hitch somewhere around the 2 minute mark, maybe a little after, and at 2:51). The song seems to do what it was intended to do in a solid manner, giving off a gritty feel with its mechanical beats and atmospheric use of the guitars. Mak has improved quite a bit since I last heard a WIP from him - keep up the good work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mak Eightman Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Thanks everybody! This track one of my favorite, still it has lot of issues. First of all, incorrect balancing. Drums sounds badly in front of the mix. Rhythms borrowed. Lead and background(swell) guitars obviously out of tune(strings timing issue), as a result dissonance. Can't say anything about instruments choice. I don't care about genre and what instruments "should" be there. If I like something, I use it. Overall I'm kinda surprised. So many issues.. Still, posted. but listening other later remixes, i understand why Once again THANKS EVERYONE, who said such kind words here, who helped me, who posted this and who listened! I'll try to improve myself a bit more. SFME Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansdown Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I love the build up in this track, especially at 2:48 and the riffs at 3:20! While both versions give off a sense of danger, Mak's remix feels a lot more urgent and powerful whereas the original stays more or less at the same strength throughout the entire track and there's no real climax. (Almost like being trapped in the same stage and over and over and over again failing to get passed the monotony...) Mak also seemed to emphasis the little contemplative section (1:00 - 1:10), which is one of the best, stand-out parts of the original. And you want to make more Ecco mixes?! YEH just awesome! ^__^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Ecco certainly seems to lend itself to surprisingly dark or action filled ReMixes. This one has an awesome industrial sound to it and while I can see where this might have raised a tiny eyebrow or two, I think it works. Not bad.

Black_Doom Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Kickass arrangement. I love the heavy, industrial feeling of it. The drums probably sound a bit lounder then they should, but anyway, it's a very cool mix. The slightly distorted guitars (not the hart-hitting ones) work awesome, creating that very feeling of hypnosis. Sort of it, y'know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
