I made some remixes, or if you like some extended mixes Zaza. But my answer to you was merely, if you think that the forum is dead or in some sense dull, why don't you create an offer and let the folks give you some feedback.

That's what I'm doing, Tom, I'm right in the process :-) haven't made any verdict about the forum yet. The discussion is still on!

Nevertheless, my mixes are still on the forum, but I'm no match for the likes as Lord Fickle and PiotreQ. These guys are stunning in there effort, give your ears a chance.

I kind of listened to a few forum mixes that had good musical quality; it didn’t get as far as your mixes, sorry! I was bored out. Nothing against nice sounding things but there are oceans of them. My list is full already. Don’t get me wrong, proficiency is good for you, but it only matters if you want to [or already do] go pro. What’s the point to keep it amateur for the guys like Lord Fickles, just to demotivate the whole field and then get demotivated, themselves? In forums like these, you form the subculture; so better think again what’s good, what’s bad, and what the motive is :-)
What makes people browsing fan art all night long is not its visual, or audio, or whatever form-related qualities. It’s basically its replica deviation quality, the way it reacts to pop culture fact and/or already existing fan subculture. This is what cracks you, drives you, and resurrects you sometimes :-) Fan art is not about me, or you, or whoever posting links with words: “I have made a mix; please tell me if it sounds good!” ‘cause what a normal, healthy response is? Right: “For what fuck should I care sounds it good or not, dear?” It does matter if you have something to say, though. What if you give me a hint, why should I look up them your mixes?
Cheers indeed, Zaza :-)

Seriously, now: you have Queen fan mixes forum here which hosts about 10 active topics a month; not even all of them being new entries. What are you people waiting for?
How can you expect new good Queen remixes to arrive if nobody’s practicing? Or, you don’t want any Queen remixes arriving at all ;-)… what do you say?
[/QUOTE]
Well, what about people like me, who don't care about the remixes at all ? :-)

Well Zaza my hint for you is, browse until you found them. For myself, I'm kinda modest regarding my efforts. I mean, I'm a old school Queen fan, grew up with the band since 1974, so therefor I'm more of an extended guy fan. That's the mean reason I like a mix of Hammer to Fall better than for instance the mix of Pain is close to Pleasure. But I can understand that are enough Queen fans, even the older fans like the latter better than HTF. But I'm drifting of the subject. But the thing which keep making me wonder is, who made all the official remixes of Queen songs, on that matter is less info....
CU, Tom

Uhm… I guess you’ll survive? ;P
Once you care to answer this topic, may I ask why don’t you care about remixes, pittrek, dear?

I tried to browse but it didn’t really work. Is it too much if I ask for a link, Tom, dear?
If you’re asking about the remixes of classical Queen pieces in re-issued albums, then the info sits on the CD cover part where sound engineers are listed. However, it looks like you’re missing the whole fan art point of my choice. I actually went for PisCtP because it gets on my nerve more than HtF. Why to change a piece which you already like the way it is?

Oops, empty post my bad. Zaza concerning my famixes, maybe I will post them again. But I'm not missing the point you're making. And I wasn't reffering to the last re-issues, there are not that many extended versions or mixed versions on them. And while on the subject, the booklets of the re-issued CD's are not that full of info, I found them rather dull.
What I'm trying to point out, I am curious who made the official remixes or extended versions, HFT was merely an example. But the fact remains that there is not much info around who made the official extended versions or remixes....
Cheers, Tom

Yeah, well, one thing is clear: if there’s little info then nobody famous is involved :-)
Right, if the remix isn’t on a CD it’s really hard to track down its origin. They can be made by literary everyone who needs them for club or radio scene so maybe ask people who are playing them. Like, address the DJ, call the radio station, or PM the person who uploaded the thing on YouTube :-)

Back to the topic: hi there! I guess I’ve got the verdict :-) which is, the mixes forum is just as good as it gets due to the fact that you guys don’t discuss any ideas in it; and/or you don’t mix any mix ideas in other forums :-)
So concerning

I’d say it’s just very, very quiet and you obviously like it that way [correct me if I’m wrong :-)] so there’s no point to create offers or something. There is no subculture to share ideas or, have some brainstorming, fun, or buzz :-) so what kind of feedback can be expected here? What kind of interest can it arise?
I don’t want to be overly demanding; after all, this forum is dedicated to a band that doesn’t exist for more than twenty years. Certainly there are more creative places elsewhere. A bit sad because my very first memories of Queen fans are about pretty much viva la differance and creative crowds but I have to admit. They’ve had time to die out physically.
And meanwhile
