Remixer Notes
For my previous remix, I remixed Shock The Monkey. Mainly to de-emphasize the drumss, and give certain instruments moments in the spotlight. Then I stretched the song 13 times longer to a length of roughly 71 minutes. My last remix was 6 minutes of the stretched song but the kbps was painfully low. At the suggestion of the good folks here at Real World Remixed I have issued part 2 at 160 kbps. I am hoping to send the studio a CD of the 71 minute version, as it is quite stunning in my opinion. I have brought the sounds much closer to D minor than they were on my previous remix. Thanks to Rooftop Access for inspiring this project, and thanks to Loveshadow for inspiring Enos.
Technical Information
Paul's Extreme Sound Stretch Software (from Romania)

Many many thanks, Synthetic. For the patience challeged, like myself, you have provided an amazing listening experience which we would never have without your effort. Thanks also to RW for providing Synthetic with the chance to upload at the increased bitrate.
Thank you Essesq, but just so everyone knows, RealWorld did not change anything special for me. I just made a lot shorter excerpt like Loveshadow suggested on my last remix. It is 160 kbps, but it is only 3:49 in length. So I would hate for anyone to think that I am getting special treatment here at RealWorld.
What a trip it is to listen to this. And entirely in a good way. A wonderful idea exquisitely executed. I had listened to Beethoven's ninth done this way as a result of a forum thread here quite a while ago, but your interpretation of STM strikes me as a more musical work, because of the additional production choices you've made.
Really well done - hauntingly beautiful!
In quantum physics there is a theory that as the universe is made of nothing but energy that every form , for instance a tree or a mountain , reacts in the same way but in a different time and space.
So throw a rock at a mountain side and it my wince in pain but take four years to show it.
So what we have here is three seconds of the original when listend to by the Grand Canyon.
But Mount Everest wants to know when you are going to do the other mix packs
Spinmeister is probably right when he talks about your production choices enhancing the effect of 'just strectching'. The beautifull thing is that there's still an unmistakable reference to a typical Peter-Gabriel-Sound (if it exists at all) like there is in for instance the Passion cd.
When you're going to burn that cd for the RWR-people, burn an extra one for me and don't tell anyone.
It almost sounds like a symphony work with a string section. Really goes nice with my background picture of the ocean on my screen saver. I would say to continue with these mini selections. So interesting and tranquil. I would look forward to hearing more. Interesting that it is in D minor.
Much better bit rate quality (160vs80). Neat the way sounds evolve and collide in slo-mo. Yes, ebb and flow of the ocean.
'Tis Beautiful
A music to listen with eyes closed, flowing inside our inner universe. What a pity this dream last for just 3 minutes. I would like to have the whole stretched one, if possible.
Thank you for giving us this great interpretation.
PS)going to click to the listen botton I falled in a 2 stars rating
Please, somebody can give 5 stars for me?
again, simply gorgeous.
i would love to hear the full 71 minutes.!
wonderful! i only just remembered to come back here yesterday, i didn't realise i inspired people!
nice work!
shocking and inspiring!
5*
