My band and i finished remixing a song yesterday, we had already submitted a remix of this song to the record company but they didnt like the first remix and i for one wasnt surprised, i thought that the first version sucked ass.
I really love the guys who are in my band but we all have our flaws, one of the guys has this fixation on violin sounds and if you leave him alone at the studio he will start filling up the song he is working on at any given time with violin samples, i might go out to buy cigarettes and when i return our song will have turned into something sounding like the London Philharmonic Orchestra rehearsing at a dance club..
Anyway, we managed to keep the violins out of this remix thankfully and also i managed to keep some of my guitars in there, ok, they edited out about 90% of what i played but i still got to keep the best bits in the song.
Now i really hope we arent going to do any more remixing for a while so we can focus on writing and recording songs for our own album.
