David’s Adventures Through the World of Music Creation and Sonic Exploration

At http://salacioussound.com/2010/04/have-your-say-about-the-streetlab-remix-competition/ you can both listen to, and vote for, the Pretorium remix in Streetlab’s remix competition presented and hosted by Salacious Sound.

This is what DJ Cal @ Salacious Sound had to say about the Pretorium remix:

“I think Pretorium is another one that is under represented at the moment – the production quality is extremely high, and what’s more, it’s a really interesting track. It’s among my top picks from the lot for sure.. reminds me of some old school Massive Attack shit.”

The other entries are really good, so give them a listen too and cast your vote.

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately - mostly regarding music, what I’m doing musically and why.
What’s the point, really? Why do I have all the gear I’ve got? What’s my goal?

I don’t strife to be in-the-spotlight-famous - don’t think I could coup with that. But I’d like to become someone. I’d like to produce and be a part of something people refer to as “really good” or “simply amazing”. I’d like to play live at more trance parties. I’d like to support, or produce, a big music act.

I’m not giving up, nor am I selling my hardware equipment even though I’m using software solely today - and I got more software coming…

I ended up in third place in a remix competition which was extremely fun, but it didn’t seem to get me anywhere.

But in the end, it’s the heart-warming comments that really is the driving force behind my music creativity.

Tongue-tied Twisted at the Digitally Imported forum wrote the following when listening to Heliosphere:
“was gonna call it a day at wrk… simply cant now….!!!!! yyeeaahh”
There are some other really amazing comments as well which I’m reading a little now and then when I need it. Those can lift me up when I’m down and inspire me to continue creating music.

Fans, friends, family and lover - Thank You for Listening and boosting my driving force!

Next up: mindXpander Live @ Mimerlaven, Norbergfestivalen. See you there!

My remix ended up in third place, which means that you’ll soon be able to buy it at Klicktrack and iTunes and hopefully be able to stream it via Spotify.

HUGE thank you to everyone who voted for me!

My Pretorium remix of Emmon’s track “Lips On Fire” is one of five to win the remix competition over at Release Magazines site.

You can listen to the five final remixes in the player to the right at the site and then vote via e-mail.

Now I need Your help to reach what could be my, and Cut & Paste’s, big break!
