Down on Earth It’s Christmas Time

HOFA hosts every year a (re)mix contest where people can create a mix of “Down on Earth It’s Christmas Time” from Jochen Sachse or create a remix of it.

I decided to create a remix only. I struggled with the genre rock. It is not my favour. Also it had signature changes within the verses to 3/4 and back to 4/4.

One of the conditions was that it should be “radio-compatible”. So I tried to create a dance version. But I was not very happy with it.

One day I listened to already submitted remixes and thought I have no chance. I thought that I need to create something different that stands out from the rest.

I didn’t give a shit about the rule and created a hardstyle remix.

Two Dumb Kids

I do not really like the genre Dubstep. When I found “Two Dumb Kids” from Mazdem on LabelRadar I was motivated to change it into completely different.

As usual I only used the vocals and created a complete new song that still contains elements of the original.

Voices

“What a nice song” I thought when I heard the original version of “Voices” from DT James & Kimbo on LabelRadar.

I only took the vocals and added a nice synth melody to this remix.
