Hi folks,

This is my first post on KVR (woot!). This forum has been recommended as a good place to share music, which is why I'm here.

If you're interested, check out this remix of 'Wild Ones' by Flo Rida and Sia Furler. I'm really not a fan of Mr Rida (!), but I love the vocal hook of the original so I couldn't resist having some fun with it.

Good/garbage? Let me know what you think...

It's nice and calm and different from the original. It's kind of quiet, I'd suggest trying to self-master it a bit just to get some extra volume. Also, the really blatant wobble on the bass doesn't really fit that much, I'd maybe make it a bit more subtle (for example, buy using less cutoff modulation and more volume modulation). The vocal chops are cool. I'd put the drums a bit up more in the mix.

^ Thanks for the feedback Nine - very useful comments, appreciated.

I kept the level on the low side to preserve some of the dynamics and not end up with a squished sausage (which would be painful); but you're dead right that it could probably do with loudening up a little.

I'd EQ'd the drums quite heavily to avoid them collidng with the bass, but again I probably cut them too high - I'm mixing on headphones, so I tend to err on the side of caution when handling bass!

Glad you like the vocal chops. They were a pain to slice and arrange, but I'm pleased with the result.

Thanks again for listening.

PS: just checked some of your tracks on SoundCloud. Nice work! And a good variety of styles. Like it.
