one year to paradise

kikai — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 01:16:13 +0000

last year i listened to a beautiful tune on myspace…..the band was (and is) Anemos and the song was called “Paradise”.

stunning and lovely. so i asked if i could re-edit it and they gladly allowed it.

the lyrics, vocals and stuff were stored on disk and from time to time i tried to get started.

tonight i finally did it – Kikai’s version of “Paradise” is done and uploaded so that Anemos could listen to it :)

new track: history

kikai — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 21:14:41 +0000

pure analog and legacy synths…and a theremin….

this is only a hint of what can be expected….lots of work to be done :)

remix-weekend

kikai — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 16:09:55 +0000

this week i was told to take the challenge :)

well…a short think-over and now i’ve got the tracks and will try to get something out of “peace” – kikai-style of course.

so in the end it probably will be more of a rework than a remix.

stay tuned….
