What is meant by WINDOWS MEDIA FORMAT ? Is it .wma ?
yes. the program I use for converting audio formats is at http://www.poikosoft.com called Easy CD-DA Extractor, but I'm sure there are a lot of other ways to do so. just make your track as mp3, wav, whatever, and you can (or I can if you want me to) convert it to wma.

Hey thanks for the help with the vocals stretching.
I have managed to recreate most of the original track in Buzz, and am probably going to just drum the feck out of it ala Prescription Beats or Morning Lemon now.

good for a first time, i expected it to be very different pnx. I think the intro and the track in genral takes a but to long to start pumping, but when it gets into it its quite upbeat and reminds me of folk music.
Well done, wish i could do something like that.

It was nice but those piano lines were used a bit too much (nothing wrong with it really but they just don't fit in right with the vocals that much). It was interesting again like ACIDCHILDREN said was not expecting that kind of remix. I will give it a 7/10 .

This remix contest is kind of a disappointment. What happened to all the other samples? Why are we only given the a-capella?? When I remix songs I'd like to have access to the vocal parts AND the rest of the sounds.
I like the song though, but it's not up to their previous work. It's got this really weak commercial hiphop sound to it that has infiltrated 80% of the market nowadays. I like the break with the Jaws reference though, and the vocals are okay but talking in production terms it's pretty bad.
BTW, negative opinions seem to be not appreciated around here. Why?

I think it's because we're all hearing things a bit differently than one another. ;)

Keep the remixes coming. I think it's really cool you guys are taking up the opportunity.
When I get home from work tonight I'll give a proper listen.

Although I didn't have any of the other Galvanize sounds at my disposal (what a shame!) I too gave it try:
Galvanize: Slipvin Dub

I'd love to hear Galvanize (Whirlygirl Remix)
^ *hint wink nudge nudge*
:-? :? :-?
I tinker with Reason, nothing too serious it's a good way to pass the time and keep my piano hands from atrophying. But I wouldn't know how to remix if my life depended on it. I'll leave that to the pros!

pnx - a piano man after my own heart.
This is a really interesting 'vision' of Galvanize you've got going on. The piano playing is excellent, btw. It's a totally unexpected take on the song, a world apart from the original. I actually like the chord progressions. As the song picks up, the bass line combined with the keys and the bongo drums from the 3:45 mark onward has a real Manchester sort of groove.
Not bad for a first remix. It's quite clever actually!

Slipvin - real nice work, really nice!
The intro is great, the way the track builds is fantastic, especially when the beat comes in around the 30 sec. mark. I like the cut up of the vocals - the panning, the reverb, and how they drift into the textures of your composition. The buzzing, dark synth countered with the lighter tones is a nice touch - the drop near the end and how the melody swings back up before the ending rounds it out. It's all put together very well, and there's plenty of ear candy to keep the listener entertained.

Awesome remix Slipvin! Sounds very professional!
Do you have any other tunes you've done for download somewhere? :D
I'll be uploading a new remix tomorrow. It's a remix of a song called Sin City Serenade by the indie-rockband Red Monroe.
Visit http://www.redmonroe.com for more info on the band.
