Hi Ketil...
Life in france is very humide!!!
i making progress on my album...21 songs...i'll finish tomorrow the instrumental versions...then, mix, voices and rhodes...
Otherwise,regarding to your new mix, i prefer this one...it's less heroic and effective but more personal and finally, more catchy (especially on the chorus)...moreover, without reverb, we can listen more intruments and arrangements, which put into relief the differents passages of the song...
i can't wait for december!!!
see you
chris

Da er jeg den andre - alltid vært svak for Kevin, og Waterworld er jo ren prog, ambisiøs og overmodig som den er. Og så profetisk - jeg mener, når Nordpolen smelter må jo vi få gjeller også. Kevin har teften, han.
