I just found this website about 2.5 hours ago & whipped a quick mix just in time! Only used the Vocals, all else is Reason Factory Soundbank.

Mercifully short rock anthem treatment of original track. A long synth bone lead seemed like a particularly cheezy way to *cough* “enhance” the fabulous bass lines and kicks of the original.

Loop preparation in AudioMulch, arrangement in Acid. I decided to use two different tempos in this song, neither of which are in the original song. Fun!

Pretty low recording volume, so you’ll have to turn it up a little. I put some deep bass hits in and couldnt get it to stop clipping till i lowered the overall track. It’s hard to remix a near perfect song, so i just went with a completly electro, get out and dance vibe. don’t normally make dancy stuff, but this has an edge.

Took me a long time to figure what I wanted to do with this one. The idea started with trying to get the loops sounding as cheesy as possible. My thinking ran something like: I wonder if I can make it sound like a jack-in-the-box! I kept that element in there, but as it started coming together, I struck upon the idea that my mix was actually coming from an out of tune AM station on a crappy transister radio. On top of that it’s been recorded on a beaten-up and scratched vinyl record. So, in the end, it is what it is: more playfullness from me.

Before starting this, I had only heard the original once before a few weeks earlier and couldn’t remember it at all, so it gave me pretty much a clean slate to work with. As is my usual routine, I stuck to only the original loopset with the exception of the drums, which I completely replaced with a new kit I made in reason. I really loved the opera track in particular, so much so that I decided to use it twice and reversed it the second time. Great loopset and awesome original.”
