Download remix MP3: http://www.mediafire.com/?dzfmyogqtg4

I have no words to describe how much I like this song and this remix. I had the song downloaded and prepared for a remix but I didn't start till somebody actually requested for a remix.

After the first few hours on it, it sounded quite promising but it wasn't till a few days later that I've started doing some filter automation on the song and I realized this is going to be big. I kept listening to it again and again to the extent that the original became some strange alien version. In my world the last few days this track became my voice and afterschool my girls.

This is a milestone for my remixes. I think I will be able to remember this one for a long long time and when I'll listen to it will remind me of this very times. It's definitely a screenshot of my current self - a feeling I got in the past when writing music but this is the first time I feel like this for a remix.

This remix has also a lot of technological firsts. I wouldn't reveal every little detail but if you pay some attention to things like the stereo image of the song you will get what I mean. In addition this time the melodies are much more complex than usual and all the sounds and effects are tweaked down to every detail.

I had this idea of putting English subtitles on my videos for various reasons. I thought I will give it a try with this remix. So I've put the first subs at the beginning of the song and I then replaced the original vocal with a draft version of the remix. Tears almost came out of my eyes when I could actually get the whole feeling of the song combined: emotional lyrics sung by passionate beautiful voices accompanied by strong beat and bass, epic leads and pads, all automated for maximum emotional building. For me it's pure magic. I hope you get the same feeling when watching this video.

My favourite moments:
0:20~0:33 when the bass and the melody lead slowly fade-in
0:56~ emotional build up and release
1:22~1:27 I love their passion
1:36 & 1:42 I love the lyric repetition
1:57 ~ 2:13 My most spoiled part. I've literally spent hours on this
2:23 I adore Ju Yeon and she's doing a jealous face there. Need to say more?
2:43~3:20 The melody lead, the build up, the release, the gated voice, everything!
