Lost In Izmir (Progressive Rock)

This song was composed by Mick Lovering. My job in the project was mixing and mastering. It was a long and difficult birth though - I tried to please everybody and tweaked the mix over and over, making it worse with every change. Then I was so frustrated that I decided to forget all the suggestions and requests and do the mix as I envisioned it.

This is the result. Mick likes it, so I'm satisfied. :)

I hope some of you like it too.

Incredible production, sounds perfect!

Well done, and it's a great song too! Everyone did a great job, the vocals sound a little like Serj Tankian at times.

Very cool!

Oops, I forgot to mention the drummer in the credits - fixed. Yes, the drums are real. :)

Fabulous music, Steffen and co. !! I have never heard this kind music that's a mix of heavy/prog and Oriental/Indian style (I got a strong oriental vibe). Great job by you all!!

Thanks, Kari - I'm just the mixer though, who varnished the finished picture. :)

Marcel (the drummer) doesn't like my mix, btw., but he never likes the way I mix his drums.

  Steffen

Hi Steffan, good post. I like the mix and it must be remembered that drummers march to a different beat than most musicians so I'm not surprised that he's the odd one out. Having said that, he does drum bloody well. Top notch............Willie
