This is brilliant (a) until the 'song' starts (b) sfter they stop singing. I think you should take it and 'Morel' it - just lose the frigging song - lovely how you've got Hooky's bit out so clean. Could you do this to Krafty? I think Krafty stands OK, but could do with a bit of your tlc to clean it up - and put Hooky where he belongs, up front. Hats off to you sir

Nicely done Gnu... a few random thoughts as I listen:

The intro takes a bit long to build for me. I totally dig the the squeaky portamento synth sound during the chorus. The change up in the drums during the second chorus is a nice touch and adds interest as does the flange on the snare during the intermezzo. It does end a bit abrubtly doesn't it?

Well done all around, but I have to deduct points since you fessed up to owning an FZ-1 and gave me a hard time about drums a few weeks back. :D

Thanks Bentley of the Golden Ears and everyone else for the comments. I'm still holding out for Spotnick (the Official Vote) and Mr. Campbell (the Right Bastard Vote) to see if I pass.

If you haven't already, check out the "7-inch" version, which whacks a couple minutes of thump thump thump and fades out the end.

Geek Notes (warning - geek content)

Remixed using Logic Pro 7.1 (which I have only because some guy mismarked the box when they were clearing out the discontinued Windows version ... $500 off, anyone?). I thought people would hate the squeal monosynth, which is Logic's ES1. The bass is the ES2, and the line is indeed cribbed from Ecstasy. I used all the Hooky I had, and actually had to ... gulp ... fix Hooky's timing, 'cause the last note stuck out like a, well, late note, especially when looped. Ouch. Oh yeah, and I bumped up the tempo from 120 to 125. Why Jestream? 'Cause I could get the tracks from u-myx.

I like Jetstream remixes a lot better than the Krafty remixes for a comparison. I liked particularly Arthur Baker's mix, so I am not with that much motivation for starting a remix of it. I would love to have samples of other songs like Krafty and make a remix of it.
