Hey, man, that’s alright. You DO have a whole month! :)
Scratch that. The deadline is September 15th.
Maybe we can give people some more time.
There’s also airplay on dutch radio involved where listeners can vote which remix they like.
Can you write tempos of all songs? It would be nice. Thanks
Yes, those will be coming very soon.
Ok, I am waiting.
Hey all,
The song tempo’s are:
AM + After The Storm = 120
Closing Hours = 168
Gone Today = 130
Tonight I = 120
Signals In The Sky = 120
Descending = 100
White Paint = 168
Lashes = 100
Sorry for the wait and don’t ask us why there’s 168 tempo’s in there :)
How does everybody enjoy remixing? Were the files all good n easy to use?
I’ve updated the page with the tempos.

let’s do this!
How are the remixes coming along. Anyone want to share some work already? We also love to do an “artist interview” on http://www.fourteentwentysix.com for those interested!
cheers

The song stems were so easy to manipulate, which made the mixing a lot of fun. I enjoyed playing around with the songs; and I only hope that people, especially the band, enjoy listening to what was created.

Hey Ed,
Thats nice to hear. We hade quite a lot (I mean 6 evenings of rendering) in total to get everything prepared so neatly for others to use. It was a bit of a monster we had not anticipated it to be :)
Cant wait to hear material, we encourage everyone to publish it to the link above.
The sooner you commit your track the sooner we can get it on the 3voor12 radio channel!! People actually will listen and vote for your track!
Chris
I am SO getting involved here!
Wicked keep it coming everyone!!
misschien is het, het vermelden waard dat hoewel ik als stoere man niet snel geraakt wordt door muziek ik toch erg geraakt was door jullie zomerfeesten set.
Tom vroeg me nog eens een 1426 nummer te verkrachten. Ik denk aan een jumpstyle remix om mede langs deze weg mijn mannelijkheid terug te winnen. ik hoop dat we deze keer wel de CD halen.
Yo OD,
:) well nothing to be ashamed off, I heard more people cried during the show. I just hope it wasnt because we were so bad :)
Looking forward to the remix, remember we’ve short of a month to go. If its good it will be on the release for sure! I’ve started on creating the artwork, once more remixes come in I will need everybodies artist info as well to finish the booklet.
Cheers!
Just so people know, because of the loss of my laptop (to lightning), we might very well extend the deadline for this release.
so i did me a sunday afternoon remix of “gone today” hope you like it.
Greatings.
Awesome, can you send a preview MP3 or upload it? I am trying to get some of the tracks some airplay on Radio 3voor12.
Cheers!
Chris
i uploaded it yesterday!
Yeah I think John’s laptop is fried by lightning. Can you drop it at chris@fourteentwentysix.com for now so I can start doing some promoting?
thanks for the effort.
Hey everyone!

Yes! There are still 4 days to submit.
If you need extra time, please email me at mineallmine.records@hotmail.com.
Gone Today is living up to it’s name. Send Space says it’s not available. Any chance of getting a last minute repost?
The same for Descending and White Paint.
Hey all,
I am trying to fix the remix packages asap. Its totally hectic at Fourteen Twentysix because of the recordings for a new album. Thanks for pointing it out.
Im sure if you are planning to do a remix its no problem if it arrives a week later than 21 november.
Thanks!
Chris

They have been updated. Gone Today is currently closed for submissions, but we’ll give you a few more days if you want to do either of the other two.
