808 returns to Strictly Mixes!

Hello everyone ... I'm back! I had to take my music down for awhile, due to copyright reasons, but I've since found a new site called legitmix.com to host my music. As I am now compliant with copyright law again, I am going back through my old posts and updating them ... the tracks should all work soon. I will also be putting up new mixes as well!

J. Geils Band - Freeze Frame (808's Double Exposure Mix)

This is my first blog post in years.  This was also my first extended remix that I have done in about the same amount of time.  I recently have had some of my extended mega mixes played on the local college radio station WUTK 90.3 here in Knoxville, TN, on a Friday night show called the 80's rock off.  One such megamix included my own custom version of this classic song from the J. Geils Band.

This track never got an officially sanctioned remix, so I decided to have a go at it.  For this one, I used the original track and an instrumental, bounced out the vocals, and added some swirl effects and some editing tricks to make it sound like a classic 80's extended mix.

Now that I have found a legit way to host these remixes (through legitmix.com) you will likely see more posts from me than you have in the past.

This mix clocks in at 6 minutes and three seconds.
