Heresy Remix of Terr0r Finished!
Sunday, August 07, 2005
Well, I just finished uploading the new remix of Terr0r. I'm calling this one the Heresy mix. gish is gonna want to find an Internet Cafe or something in that hell-hole of a city she's in right now, because she's got to hear this. I like it a lot better.
Here's what i did:
Give it a listen and let us know what you think. If you liked it that is. If you didn't like, you know what you can do with yourself (kidding).

Here's what i did:
- Changed the samples used for the drum loops. The basses are heavier and more resonant. The hi hat is more acoustic and the hand claps are more artificial sounding.
- Shortened the drum chorus by 1 measure (too repetative)
- Removed much of the delay from Gish's vox. Makes them much clearer in spots. Added some flange, which gives her a more mechanical feel. Mmmm... mechanical (drool).
- Added a breakbeat every 4th measure of each verse, to change up the drum loop.
- Adjusted the levels for many of the channels.
- Added some stereo panning. Lots of stereo panning, actually. It really helps make the composition less muddled, and allows the individual channels to shine through. You can also do some cool fx with it (like the "I dunno" snare breakdown). I didn't realize how essential that feature would be.
- Fattened the underlying bass and changed the sample to an Amber Modeling Synth patch that I created. Used crossfading to dampen the synth before the chorus. It's much more melodic than that sub-dub noise that was there previously.
- Removed samples. :(
Give it a listen and let us know what you think. If you liked it that is. If you didn't like, you know what you can do with yourself (kidding).
