As played on BBC Radio 1 and Tiesto's Club Life. This is my new remix of Empire of the Sun's "Walking on a Dream".

Empire of the Sun is an Australian electronic music duo which formed in 2007. The duo is currently composed of Luke Steele of The Sleepy Jackson and Nick Littlemore of Pnau. The pairs name comes from the 1984 novel of the same name by J. G. Ballard.

The duo achieved chart success with their first single "Walking on a Dream" which peaked at number ten on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart and reached number sixty four on the UK Singles Chart.

Their debut album also titled Walking on a Dream, released in October 2008, to date has been certified platinum in Australia and has spawned the top 25 hit "We Are the People". Recently Empire of the Sun has gained mainstream media attention for gaining fourth position on the BBCs annual Sound of Music poll 2009. They are currently signed to EMI Australia and Virgin UK.

England based DJ and Producer Mike Foyle has certainly made a name for himself over the last few years as a producer, composer and DJ that you can rely on. Mike is best known for integrating his lush piano compositions with smooth, melodic trance music, and has now released four piano trance hits on Armind Recordings along with remixes from some of the best producers on the global dance music scene. Between his own name, his various aliases such Andromeda, Statica and Bolt, plus numerous collaborations with the likes of Filo & Peri, the Signalrunners and X-Vertigo, Mike has put his hand to a broad range of styles from the serene and uplifting vibe of Love Theme Dusk to the smooth, progressive and lush Bittersweet Nightshade and the dark, eerie and ridiculously roof rattling Hex This guy delivers anthems like your postman delivers the mail

His DJ sets are an affair just as eclectic, featuring anything from classic trance to modern and edgey madness drenched in tantalising melodies, atmospheres and soundscapes, all expertly blended together, putting him in DJ booths worldwide from London to Edinburgh and from Jakarta to Hollywood.

Armed with a potent classical background, he is also well respected as a composer of piano music, and has begun working alongside film production companies in a bid to further develop his skills as a writer and producer on the audio-visual playing field.

Having gained a Degree and National Diploma in Music Technology, Mike is now working on experimental sonic arts projects, the most notable of which is a project designed to integrate music with audio based brainwave entrainment and biofeedback.

Its like taking a shit in a bucket and wiping your ass with the lyrics of this great song.

[Michael Foyle]

Oh, thanks so much. That was a really thought provoking and insightful comment. I'm sorry if I'm not as talented as you are at producing music. I can only try my best :)

[risilca]

No problem, as long as you keep doing cheap covers it will be obvious its not your best.

[Michael Foyle]

Believe it or not I did it for the fun. Bootleg remixes don't really make you any money. I'm not sure where your monetary valuation comes into the equation but never mind. If it's not expensive enough then again, I'll try harder next time. Thanks once more for your ever so constructive feedback and I'm really sorry to have caused offence.

The video edit was done live as well and only in a couple of takes. Didn't bother to fix the little glitches because didn't think it would matter really!

[Michael Foyle]

Yeah it was just a quick job on the video for nothing more than the sake of youtube. Sorry it's a problem for you.

[Wieselmann100]
