There is a lot of good Hard House out there that is musically extremely well produced, and where a lot of thought is put into subtle sounds and effects. Being both a Hard house and Trance producer there's an equal amount of thought that has to be put into both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being both a Hard house and Trance producer there's an equal amount of thought that has to be put into both. i dont doubt that, but the fast the beat rate, the less time there is for people to notice the subtelties. i have got a hardhousy version of insomnia i'm cooking up. but i'm not going to even think about working on it until i have the skill to do it justice (only got the ideas in me head at the mo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW Members ReBirth Posted May 29, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 29, 2004 (edited) Yes, but that all comes down to personal sentiment..if most people felt the same, it wouldn't have gotten the sales that it did. Ferry Corsten knows about the remix, and if he thought the same, he wouldn't have allowed it..I fell that the trancey remixes that was put out in the re-press of it last year wasn't even close to Alf's remix, and didn't do it justice at all..at least Alf added some of his own elements, and actually made the track a lot more complex with added backlines and a subriff...and he created a wider audience for the track...can't see what's wrong about that...

It's not a Hard Trance track. And this remix never was officially released. It's an unofficial mix and if they where to persist on trying to get a full on release I'm pretty sure Vincent De Moor and Corsten would object. It's not a Hard Trance tune, and Technikal really ain't done that much to it really let's be honest here. A basic Hard Trance rerub if I ever heard one. All the new mixes have been shit even the official ones. The Original and Origin Remix are the ones. Let's face facts here Technikal keep on doing these guff remixes can't they stick with producing originals I'm sure if the producers of the tunes getting bum fucked wanted Hard Trance mixes they'd ask for them.

Well, it was released on Positiva...they don't cater for hard trance audiences. A lot of these remixes are done because Hard Dance DJ's ask for ir. They like the original, but it obviously can't fit into a hard set. So putting a bit of grit to it, but still mainting the original elements is what they'll want. Ferry knows about the remix and said go for it, as long as he gets a copy as well. When I spoke to him at the Arches last year he said that he liked what was done with it. :-) But as I said mate..each to their own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members BenRW Posted May 30, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted May 30, 2004 I personally cannot fault the technikal remix of carte blanche. Can LTM point out exactly what is wrong with it apart from that he doesn't like the fact that the hard dance community has got hold of a trance track. I Have heard that the lee haslam and guyver remix of carte blanche is rather tasty as well altho have yet to hear it Quote I was going to post a gag about flagellation, necrophilia and bestiality but it's just flogging a dead horse.
