I will remix anything and everything... as long as it's good... I started with 'Cunla' by Planxty (available to download here!) and loved it so much that I couldn't stop remixing stuff. I've also remixed a couple of tunes by my own band as well as , a wonderful group I met in Tennessee.
However, my first major project - my first finished project - and hence my first album, was "The Poitin Remixes" - the entire "Hot Days" album by totally remixed (we're talking reMIXed here - not just remastered!) complete with loops and samples...
Been playing in playing in bands for donkey's years and then started getting into remixing.
I don't play live... yet... it's not really live music (although it could be with a lot of organisation)
Musically, I've been influenced by so much it's impossible to say...
as for the remixing, I don't really listen to too much electronic music, but I get some ideas from the likes of Massive Attack, Gorillaz, Orbital, Chemical Brothers, Beck, etc...
A computer, a keyboard and an endless supply of sounds, samples and ideas...
I'm constantly looking for new music to remix, so if you'd like me to give it a go with your tunes, email me at dspiremix@ymail.com
