love this ,,,,,,,,,,,,, feels like a dream slowly walking on a beach then ya suddenly find a dance party on nice tropical cool breeze night ! in some swanky place,,
heard this on the radio and took me so long to find it because all the other awful, awful remixes out there. i'm kinda starting to hate this "music 2.0" and all the random people with ableton
@angusd60 - I absolutely love the change in chords over the original. This adds a dimension of emotion for me because it's more complex and layered. Loving this versions!
I love the original for the raw emotion but I pretty much love anything mr. bibio touches and all the more kudos to him to for thinking this song is the bomb and deserves to be #1. My esteem for him has only risen. Hey I've got an idea.. why don't you guys tour together here in the states ;)
wow i thought that this would sound like some techno thing, but it sounds amazing! i really like it, i dont know why people dont. it sort of sounds like a mix of empire of the sun and gotye. love it :D
I love how this mix makes Kimbra's final line almost triumphant; it adds a new spin on the lyrics. Interesting stuff, and although I prefer the original, this is still a great piece of music.
i feel it lacks consistency, skipping in between classic chillout electronic (think ministry of sound) and beachy acoustic without really getting either quite right. i do really enjoy the feel of it from about 4min onwards :)
if wally posted it here then it obviously has his approval and who are we to argue with such a brilliant mind? keep it up wally, we love you.
@Reubenparkin sometimes a remix can ruin the powerful emotional push it has in the original song......the music can ruin it but this didnt...it fits nicely...DERP
I don't mind this remix, it's definitely interesting. Of all of the remixes floating around it probably runs a close second to the Phatchance remix for me
@dobberdoss i think it is an adventurous remix and subtly done; it's got more texture than the original and in typical bibio fashion, a timely build up and original instrumentation (i think?) and would more than likely put new listeners on to gotye from bibio and hopefully vice versa - (see posted video) - tell me that this doesn't 'exude' feeling?! like me ma says: 'if you got nothing nice to say; say nothing at all. played the remix over and over since i heard it
I have to say i quite like it, @heyashreya If you just imagine it as song completely independant to the original youll find its very relaxing. right at home in the finest lounges.
It's interesting how a few changes can completely alter the feeling and mood of a song. I love listening to remixes. This isn't a fave but I really appreciate the uniqueness and it's very tight and consistent. Thanks!
@dobberdoss Because Gotye asked me to remix his song. It's not in competition with the original, it's just an alternative take on the original, that's what remixes are about.
That maybe the case, but i don't know of even ONE remix that has EVER been better than the original much like movie remakes or anything else. The truly inspired must seek originality at all times. My opinion of course. EVERYDAY i here classic music and songs getting trashed by "remixes and remakes". What's next ? remix Jonny Cash?
@dobberdoss 'Bettering' the original is not part of the criteria for a remixer, certainly not for me anyway. The idea of a remix is to do something different to the original and take it somewhere else and that's what I have tried to do here. Like I said, there's no competition. You have every right to like or dislike any piece of music you wish, but remixes have their place and are beneficial to both remixer and composer of the original works. Remixes reach out to new audiences for both parties.
@mk2efords LIke I said, you don't scare me. Sending me a private message which included a documented threat of arson on my house was probably an act of complete stupidity.
it goes out of key alot, especially the chorus, but at the same time it almost works, which is interesting...but if the feel behind the original song is what you expect, you expect in vain, though this song on its own without comparison, is extremely ambient, visual styled, very, very nice song to just sit back and chill out to.
@heyashreya I think that it's great, wally is just doing what he always does with his music, which is experiment, the original had the emotion for sure and this version has soo much more to listen too if you give it a chance...
@jknig84 I gave it a chance. It's not that it's not good. It's wonderful, because it's by Wally, but I simply don't think that it's up to par with the original. By all means, love it all you want! :)
@heyashreya The original already covers the raw emotion, if the remixes perpose was to display the same features then it would be in competition with it when it is just a different form of music the lack of emotion is intentional..
Awesome. The best remixes are the ones that take some core aspect of the original and turn it into a completely different, independent song that is still good, like this one.
