"New York at Last" - Queens New York demo rebuilt and remixed...

WOW, f**** amazing!!!!

Wow! this is quite a rollercoaster so far - continued thanks for feedback.

Armaldo - thanks for checking out some of my other stuff.

Deacon Fan - "I hope he has good feelings about it. If he sues you or something I'd feel like shit :-P"
He-He....LMAO! (nervously). I have failed miserably to get Brian's address to send a proper package to - not without want of trying though!

Dr Zoidberg - I'm quite overwhelmed that you registered purely to give feedback on the mix - what can I say? :o)

El Shileno - f***** thank you!!!! :oP

Smash, I've sent you an email with additional information :)

Hey this is really brilliant what you've done, it would be really cool when this song gets a release. you've got the talent to fit different parts of music fluently intogether.
I also liked what you've done with a Doors and The Who song.

Just go to www.Brianmay.com - you'll find all the info you need there.

Adam.

Hi Smash! Just downloaded the "Under Pressure"-plus-Jacko-Mix. Stunning how this totally different pieces of music fit together.
As for the "New York"-work: I keep my fingers crossed that our blessings might be heard and Brian (or Queen Prod.) might find a way to release it officially. May it be...

Just one question: Where did you get the vocals for this remix?? I want those vocal tracks!

Nice question, Inu. EQ-ing tricks on the original piano n vocal? Or is it phase inverting stuff?

Peace,
Adam.

May i ask something else? Where are the samples from Save Me and Spread your Wings? I feel really disoriented and shamed but i didn't find them!
Thanx

If you listen to 'Spread Your Wings', at around 3:22 there's an echoey guitar sustain (am I using the right term?) which is used a few times in the remix.

As for 'Save Me', I'm assuming it's the other guitar stuff you hear though I can't pinpoint a specific riff.

I find this whole thing very exciting. Brian has definitely heard it, and Greg Brooks has heard it, said he was 'quite impressed' and asked me about it so I gave him Smash's email addy so there should be contact between them all soon enough.

Of course I ran the risk of putting myself into the middle of something that has nothing to do with me, but I felt this was really worthy of being heard on a wider scale so I used a previous reply from Brian to mention it.

No, DF, you did a good thing. Perhaps this will be a new Queen-related/Freddie single, if not, like someone else said earlier, the person who made this remix could make a new remix if given access to original mastertapes or copies of mastertapes transferred to hard disk :)

Billie, the Spread Your Wings sample (the picked “phased” guitar) is around 2.03 and at the ending. I think the Save Me sample is the “aeroplane” guitar – Smash may or may not confirm this

I've just written an e-mail to Smash, so hopefully I will have answers for you guys if he doesn't post here yet

He-he, now you're peering through the smoke looking for the trap doors and mirrors, LOL!!

I will say though, that I didn't use phase inversion and eq-ing to get the vocals out on their own...:o)

(The samples are used to provide the guitar part in the chorus.)

Deacon Fan - please check your mail

Got the email :) It's a big one! Give me some time, hehe.
