I’ve been REBONKED!
#music #musique #collaboration
You may remember that I contributed two songs to the last #BonkWave triple album: C’est quoi (le bonkwave) ? and La sieste/Don’t Mind Me.
After the staggered release of Disc A, Disc B and Disc C of Not What I Call Bonk Wave – Volume 003, and as is customary in bonkwave circles, contributors started sharing stems (individual tracks) of their songs, so they could be remixed by other musicians.
I honestly didn’t think anyone would be interested in remixing my songs, and said so on the BonkBoard forum, but members begged to differ.
So I figured out how to generate and share my stems, and to my utter surprise, not one, but two people decided to remix my songs!
And they have now been released, along with many other amazing remixes, on Not Bonk What I Call Wave: Remixes Vol 2!
Go listen to (and download) the whole album now (It’s free!)
Reverb 10000 remixed both of my songs, and the results are absolutely delightful! I actually think I like La sieste / Don't Mind Me (Reverb 10000 Chausettes et Chaussons Mix) more than the four versions that I laboriously came up with!
C.Circo, with whom I previously collaborated on a song for the Comfy Collaborations #RadioFreeFedi tribute album, also remixed C’est quoi (le bonkwave) ? in his incredible and inimitable style, and his track was way up there on the applause-meter during the online release party.
I nearly forgot! Ordos Mk.0 somehow managed to build a mind-boggling Bonkwave Bouillabaisse out of bits of 10 songs, including C’est quoi!
It’s truly wild for a songwriter to be remixed: flattering, surprising, touching, humbling, thrilling and gratifying, and I want to thank both Reverb 10000 and C.Circo from the bottom of my heart for making me feel so... special!
