Awesome remix :D Great job! I do miss the melody soaring over though, this is basically a full remix with the chords and spinners only - But its well produced and it slaps! I approve.

AndrewCr responds:

I know, it could have been better, but I just stuck with this

Amazing! Well done everyone

TartsGMD responds:

YOOOOOO WF!!!! Happy to see you here man <3 Thank you so much!

Ahh the chorus is really great, super catchy and uplifting. Nostalgic and some 80s vibes in there too. Its one of those melodies that tells a story. This is a banger, I love it! Could use some mastering, thats the only thing holding it back, it has a bit of a tick mids in some places.

Lockyn responds:

Thanks a ton! Glad to see you around still. Appreciate you stopping by and appreciate the feedback :)

Great piece :) Its very hopeful. Would be awesome to hear this in full orchestration. But it has a lot of charm as it is. I really like this kind of melody personally, it really grew on me. Well done!

vincentizghra responds:

Thank you so much for the kind words. I've never thought about making a fully orchestrated version but I love the idea. I think it could work great! Again thank you <3

Awesome track! This has an amazing sound, melodies are great, and the call-and-response is what really ties the track in. Only thing it might need to make it perfect is the mastering on the lead instruments, they can be a bit piercing in the middle.

ItsBurner responds:

Thanks for the criticism, much appreciated =]

I'm glad you liked it !

(Holy sh!t it's Waterflame, I'm flattered !)

Ahhh this is my kind of chord-lines. It sounds great! It has that classic Japanese VGM jazz sound to it. And I LOVE the mastering. I know its not for everyone, but personally I like the low mid and bass to be center stage like in this mix. As for constructive criticism, if there was anything to point out its the synth at 01:55 and to the end, it cool that its wonky but it ends up fighting for space a bit. Might just be personal preference :) Great piece!

chrisbasso responds:

appreciate it Waterflame! Means a lot coming from a legend <3

This is super out there, and like you said not really anything like the track anymore. But im diggin' it! Especially the end / start after the drop. With the repeating voices and stabs in left and right stereo. I also love weird.

ORI-TAGGART responds:

Glad you enjoy it man! I was not expecting a comment from you. Much appreciated! Have a nice day!

Thank you! This Is great. Well done! I def. feel the influence in the chords and breakdowns. Loved the little radio-breakdown. Also funny to hear so many of these samples and presets I've messed with myself through the years. Yet, this is its own thing.

Preds responds:

Glad you liked it! Yeah, it is super influenced in your old/Skyworld tracks!

Thank you!

Welcome back! The remake is awesome, but I expected nothing less.
Now go take back the orchestral section!

Danman87 responds:

Thanks WF! I'll attempt that once I find it! :D

Cool. Nice work on the melodic structuring! :) But The song is extremely loud and it is clipping, It might be dangerous to headphone users (like myself) you should try putting a limiter on it, and never go over 100% on any volume slider. Rather make it louder by upping loudness in the master limiter in the end.

Synfang responds:

My apologies, Mr. Waterflame, sir.
...sorry for the excessive formality. I'm just so hyped that someone as famous as you noticed me (the only other person who comes close to you who's noticed me is DJVI (who, no offense, is the one GD artist I like more than you)). But, to keep my...uh, shall we say, fanboy side...down, I'm avoiding all the caps and exclamation points. :)
Sorry for making it so loud. See, fact is, I started going deaf about 2 years before I started making music, and so I can't really hear the track as well unless it's at such high volumes. I know, it's inconsiderate to my listeners, but unless you're Beethoven, you can't make a song you know will be enjoyed if you can't hear it yourself.
Truth is, I actually don't think I've used a limiter in any of my songs before (probably stupid on my part), largely because, well, I'm an amateur who had minimal music experience before entering the field (it was originally just a hobby, but I've since highly considered doing it for a career) and didn't take the time to learn the full functionality of everything before I started working on tracks. That being said, I never used a limiter because I didn't understand how a limiter worked.
As for never going to 100% on any slider, I have received that criticism once before. Admittedly, I didn't actually hit 100% on any of them for this track, but I'm not gonna pretend like I didn't come close, as 95% may as well be 100% (rough estimate when I say 95%; my DAW doesn't actually give percentages).

Anyway, thank you for the feedback, sir. I'll try to keep your advice in mind for future tracks.
