daniel johnston/race4prize remix
Release
Author: race4prize on February 15 2007
--> pawel posted a daniel johnston video in some blog earlier and it got me thinking or reworking the song, which i did just now in an hour or so, hence its pretty sketchy, but hey, daniel johnston is ultimately sketchy anyway so i like it that way.

all i did was add some drums, a bassline, change the form a little, and used a bit of processing on some of the vocals, but i'm kinda happy ish with the result.

another one for the e.p....just ONE more track to make!

oh and the original track is called, Monster In Me......

please don't download this song and keep it as I would feel like i'm ripping the great daniel johnston off

I am a daniel Johnsotn fan, and i really like teh processing on his vocals, way more clear and suttle. The swooshyness doesnt really add much, but i like the bassline too. The drums are great. Very moving track:-D

like this r4p. simple, keeps it true to daniel johnson, yet adds to the song.

wow. trip in a trip. i like your interpretation. the beat needs a weird variation maybe? somehwhere in there?
With these vocals? You could take your part of the mix to the extreme ballistic ape-shit crazy side of music. maybe?
that'd be awesome, cus the vocals freak me out kinda straight up like they are. but I hear something twins peaks like creeping in...
god lyrics are very....omg.

damnit. i want to accent how much I like your part of the mix. i'm totally not a fan of this guy, but your stuffs makes me happy.

perfect...made me shed a tear inside.

Sweet, r4p, just sweet. That beat really just adds such a great feel to the song.

Looks like you are doing great things with your ep time...awesome.

wow thanks guys, im really happy with all the responses from this. my e.p should be finished tomorrow!!!!!!!! i can't believe i'm gonna do it!!

Very compelling song.
Wow, this is all kinds of good. I'm not familiar with Daniel Johnston, but I'll be sure to seek out some of his stuff. Doesn't look like he's making it on the ATP roster sadly. Still, I'm looking forward to Patti Smith and Explosions in the Sky!

Check out the documentary on him...very very touching and a wee bit disturbed.

yeah the documentary is amazing. really really enjoyed it.

kwyj - still keeping my fingers crossed for him at atp, i reckon its gonna happen

i saw the documentary after it was recommended on here and my girl and I both LOVED it. We're going to see him live at the end of the month. Can't wait. OH YEAH and nice mix according to my lil laptop speaks

well done. love that guy. at times ;)

I have so much respect for johnston, that I feel if your going to put this on your ep you should put a little more of yourself in this,
nice direction, but I think you can push it further.

sweetness. there needs to be an electronic remix album of daniel johnston songs. good job.
