Juicelog Sat 110306: Got a touch of promo pressure today when Paedo P. gave me a sneak preview off his latest remix project. Basically he’s done an electro house remix of a track he messed about with a couple years ago. Like most bedroom producers he has taken the lazy method of using a sample (in this case it’s the vocal from Sharon Redd’s “Never Give You Up”).
On the whole I like what he’s done with it but it’s very hard for me to rate it properly as I only got a snippet of it played to me over the phone. It possesses a funky sound driving bass line to keep it chugging along but there are areas that he could modify:
- to ensure it doesn’t sound under produced
- to change the breakdown to find more of a commercial hook (if he is serious about doing some serious disco damage)
- to include a loop of some kind and/or melodic chords
- to find some diva to re-do the sample (personally I’d used someone like India but considering his finances he’ll be lucky to get a pop idol reject)
erm I think that’s it. Wait a minute here, isn’t this going to be a completely different sounding tune?
