Scroobius Pip vs Dan Le Sac unfinished remix

There was a remix contest going a while ago for the 'Scroobius Pip vs Dan Le Sac' track Great Britain, never one to shy away from having a go I started one....but because of the things I had going on then and the amount of time I had to russle up a remix I didn't manage to meet the deadline.

I was only really doing this for fun because I found it quite amusing at the time, but my interest in completing the track has since fizzled out. Creative Commons used to do some great remix contests a few years ago and I still have the tracks I did for those, but they don't seem to put many on thesedays....which is a shame as I really enjoyed it.


Anyhoos, I just recorded the chorus part of where i'd got to with my remix for the sake of having at this something of this to put in my music archives.

There's nothing that I hate more than a remix or cover of a song that sounds exactly the same as the original, that's why whenever I do these contests I just download the samples and start from scratch without having even heard the original song. I don't think that many people would like most of the remixes i've done in the past, because they're not great. But they ARE different.


This is their original version:

This was the winning remix (totally NOT my kind of music....found it boring. sorry!):

I'd have prefered this one to have won it:

Infographic update

I decided to polish up some of the issues with my infographic piece from earlier on in the year, these were as follows:

• Gaping hole between road and pavement following the transition from previous scene.
• Mario curtain ('video games can be healthy') entering too earlier - causing confusion.
• Asteroids too static, explosions too subtle.
• Pong SFX timed with animation clashes with music tempo.

I've sorted all these things out as well as adjusted the volume of some of the SFX which I felt were perhaps a little too overpowering. The one issue that remains unchanged is the animated polevault, i'm happy to leave it as it is but in the future I will definately take a different approach to doing things in this way as it didn't feel right at the time either.....at the time it was a case of producing something that worked.

Let me know what you think. Also I now have a profile on Behance where there are some ideas gen scribbles for this on there, take a look!
