Heh. It's the basis on how I work...drum machines and all.
I'm doing a whole slew of these CC remixes...and so far they all sound vastly different.
In approaching this particular track, the original score struck me as something out of a Tim Burton film, so I looked at it from the angle of "this should be turned into a cheesy club track".
It's pretty good...I found that the everpresent thumping (I just can't think of the term right now. Drum machine? Gah.) didn't contrast too well with the overall theme of the piece, but it was still decent.
