You probably replied on the MH forums, but what do you think of the Lee Haslam remix of melbourne? I was a little surprised at the criticism, i've loved nearly all his productions since he jumped from hard house to trance.

What producing software are you using? Have you had any kind of training or just learning by doing?

I've not actually listened to the Lee Haslam mix to be honest dood. The original is good, but not the best work from Tyas, but good none the less. I figured the Melbourne competition would be a good way of introducing myself to remixing etc as its got the proper parts to the tune available etc, so its a nice way to ease myself into it.

I'm using Ableton and Acid Pro at the moment, just got hold of a wedgeload of VST's and i've got an M-Audio MIDI keyboard too to help me out.

Just got the Vengeance sound packs (which everyone uses), and a couple other ones aswell, just trying to build my collection of samples up at the moment, and learn about different techniques in Ableton.

I've had no training at the moment, so it's basically learn as I go and fiddle with stuff. I am most probably going to do some sort of music production course or Ableton course at the Manchester Midi School in the Summer. The Ableton course is a bargain imo at about £125 and teaches you the ins and outs of Ableton both for producing and for Live performance so will be good to know
But I'm also thinking of doing the production course which is about £350, but covers full production and mastering using different softwares and that should give me the best grounding to work from really.

Was pretty underwhelmed when i heard it on TATW this morning, and the youtube video has just confirmed that. Breaking ties i thought was pretty poor as well.

Siren of the sea and Miracle are leagues ahead imo

To be honest whenever i find out any new above & beyond track is being released I automatically start bracing myself for the onslaught it gets on radio shows and livesets. By the time it's been out a week i can't stand it - even if i liked it originally


(Sorry ROSSI, nothing personal :p)

I don't know about anyone else but i have been very disappointed by the recent crop of vocal tracks, Ferry, Armin, JOC, Oceanlab. They are all pretty generic and interchangeable and do little for me, so i was pleased to stumble across this gem last night. Finally a decent vocal track for January!

Gabriel Lukosz feat Rachele Warner - Last One Out

All the remixes on this release i thought were superb, with the original probably being my favourite. I couldn't find the original on youtube so here is the, also very good, Myon & Shane 54 remix

Just recorded a new mix. I've not listened back yet but i'm not convinced it'll be as good as i hope. A couple of the mixes in the second half went waywards and in trying to jump up and down through styles i'm concerned it'll sound a bit too mish mashed. Here is the tracklist anyway

02 - Dave Schiemann - Overload (Re-Ward)
03 - Rank1 - LED There be light (LaserLight)
04 - TiDi - Is it Cold? (Re-Ward)
05 - Marcel Woods - Can't Sleep
06 - George Acosta - War of Hearts (Roy Gates)
07 - Paul Webster - Corruption (Mac & Taylor)
08 - Reconceal - When i find you (Marcos)
09 - Arctic Moon & Truewave - On Silver Wings (Marcos)
10 - Hodel & Hornblad - Hydrogren (Michael Angelo)
11 - Tiddey - Taylla (Paul Miller)
12 - Adam Nickey - Slider (Sean Tyas)
13 - Vicky Devine - Facing the Truth (Dan Powers)
14 - Thrillseekers - City of angels (Genix)
15 - Claudi Cazacu - Earproof
16 - Sean Tyas - Melbourne (Lee Haslam)
17 - Dazzle - Relativity
18 - Roland & Wright - Mysterious Movement (Pierre Pienaar)
19 - Andy Mac - Solar Storm
20 - Neal Scarborough - Panama
21 - Simon Patterson vs. Veracoche - Carte Smack (F1D0)
22 - Will Atkinson - Enough is Enough (Mac & Taylor)
23 - Paul Webster - Cut Off (Will Atkinson)
