11. ARCHITECTURE IN HELSINKI ‘In case we die”  (2006)

Here’s a little insider info for you: the remix business is the last field where old and twisted industry jive is still taking place. “Change this, change that” or ” at 1′34 can you change the reverb and put the hihat louder?”, or the absolute classic “why is it only 3 minutes long? Can you make it longer, like 4′30 ?”.  For a long time, I thought I was the only one going through this, I didn’t even want to talk about it.  Now I know the truth: accepting money to make music will always somehow oblige you to comply to the payer’s wishes.

In the case of Architecture In Helsinki, I have to admit, it was probably the smoothest transaction ever made. They asked, I said yes. I did it, they said yes. Thank them.
