- A new, more stereophonic, 2024 remix. This one has stereo vocals and a remixed stereo backing. It is based on the single version, which had a lot of mono components in it. I've also added a cold ending to the mix.
The land of FAR FAR AWAY
You can definitely hear the difference , You have made a good song even Better . . Nice one Pat.
Thanks James 👍
I've been waiting for this video to come out.Thank you so much for posting this.Shrek 5 here we come.
You're welcome !
Used to shy away from any sort of ‘funky’ described music so never gave it a listen but vaguely familiar this one and interesting on headphones. Big hit in many, many countries selling 8 million copies. Their biggest selling record. Can imagine the 80s disco scene with this one belting out. A grower certainly Pat. Thanks for this.
Another number one record from the 50s, 60s & 70s ticked off. I know it didn't reach number one until 1980, but it was recorded the year before !
Great Remix
👍👍
🎧👍👍 It's amazing what can make it to number one and this one is amazing! Remixing perfection, Pat; thank you for working on this fun song.
Thanks Bill. I love working on electronic music. The tempo is consistent throughout the song, which makes synchronising everything so much easier !
@@radiowollaton8521 This type of music is usually not my cup of tea but I really like this one. Another that falls into that category is I Feel Love by Donna Summer.
@@radiowollaton8521 Hey, Pat! I just watched a reaction video to Superbird by Neil Sedaka and I wondered if you know it. It was a minor hit here in North America in the early 70s and is one of my favourites by him.
Nice job Pat!! One of the great disco hits from the Seventies ... Please could you remix the song by Dr. Hook " A little bit more " ? Much appreciated Pat
I will see what I can do.
Hutchgott hit it spot on, the separation is perfect, another RW classic, love it pat !
Very good sound,a great song PAT 👍👍👍👍👍
Something a bit more modern !

Thanks Patti. Glad someone likes it !
One of the best disco songs. I only have one word to say, Pat. Congratulations.
Thanks Nikos. Just been watching the Athens fires on the BBC news channel. Hope everything is OK with you.
@@radiowollaton8521 Hi Pat. The fire is quite far from my house in Athens. It started on Sunday afternoon and still hasn't gone away. It's like hell. The sky is black, there is a strong smell of fire and ash is raining all over Athens.
Anyway, at the moment I just arrived in Kalamata (220 km, south of Athens for planned vacations)
Thank you for your interest
@@nikosstefaneas4795 👍
Wow, in the first 30 seconds I can tell you gave this song a much needed shot in the arm. Sounds wonderful!

Got the 12” vinyl of this, this sounds really good pat !
Thanks Paul 👍
@@radiowollaton8521it was always a good stereo track but this takes it to another level pat !
Sounds great through my disco speakers thank you. You should make a cd called raidio wallatons greatest stereo mixes 😊
👍👍

The best song. 👏
Not necessarily my taste in music, but the song sounds good on headphones.
Thanks Gerhard 👍

It sounds very "modern, new". I prefer the original
I dont mean to seem unappreciative, but why bother with tracks such as this that are already in excellent stereo mixes? Why not make better stereo mixes of those odd tracks by The Beatles , The Platters, Sarah Vaughan, Nancy Sinatra (among others), that have poor stereo mixes with the vocal stuffed in the right or left channel? Producers at Mercury Records in particular did this with many artist's albums. Many of the recent stereo reissues of The Beatles early tracks (such as "Till there Was You") have the vocal annoyingly shoved to the far right of left. Nancy Sinatra's album "How Does That Grab You"? is another example of the vocal stuffed to the side.
It would be great to have mono recordings artists like Sinatra or Julie London in stereo, or even albums by Les Baxter. Tell me, what software do you use to achieve such great results?
Funkytown is not the best stereo mix ever, so I decided I could make a better sounding stereo mix. All my mixes are aimed at headphone listeners, so if you listen that way and do an A to B comparison, you will hear a big difference.
I suggest you do a search of the 1200 tracks that I've uploaded over the past four years. I've remixed songs by almost all the artists that you mention. I go out of my way to find tracks that are mono only, or poor stereo. If a song is already available in excellent stereo, then I have no desire to remix that song.
I don't know if you are aware of the search facility on CZcams channels but just click on the icon to the right of Home, Videos, Community and type away. Here's the Nancy Sinatra song you mention: czcams.com/video/VABHaACrggk/video.html
Speaking of 80's music Pat, before you say no, can you consider giving "Edge Of Heaven" by Wham a try. For being a Top 10 song in the 80's, it's got a horrible mono sound. Every vocal, guitar, drum, horn, etc. is dead center boring. Separation of panned horns and guitar would satisfy these 55 year old ears. Thanks for reading this. I'm sure my suggestion will get lots of criticism.
Thanks Mark. I will look into that one. I've been looking at other 1980s recordings just recently and found more mono-ish songs. A lot of the Madness recordings, for example, could sound better.
@radiowollaton8521 I appreciate that. Coincidentally, I just gave Led Zeppelin's "Heartbreaker" a new mix. I felt the drums needed to be more prominent with a better eq. I don't know if you've given that song a new stereo mix or not but give it a listen and let me know if you hear what I'm talking about.
@@markcross169 I would have made the drums louder, but I think Led Zep are one of the bands that block uploads.
Cause for unsubscribing. One of the worst records ever. Sickening.
As subtle and tactful as ever. Thanks Larry 🙂
@@radiowollaton8521 I’m dead serious. That recording is offensive to me.
@@toothbrush5190 There are records I dislike as well Larry, but I can honestly say that no piece of music has ever sickened me. Is it just this particular record or the whole genre that offends you?
@@radiowollaton8521 it’s this recording for the most part. Tainted Love by Soft Cell has the same effect. I did once get sick from hearing that record over and over.
I managed a very busy record store in Bklyn 78-81, a rocker selling ALOT of awful disco records…Push Push In The Bush is another that offends me…I’m not fond of mindless, sexist, disco recordings.
I adore Donna Summer’s recordings. I Remember Yesterday would be a great one for you to improve.
@@toothbrush5190 I agree with you about Tainted Love. I never liked the Soft Cell version. And I'm a big Giorgio Moroder fan, so I'll have a look at his work later on. I had a go at making a headphone mix of I Feel Love, but couldn't make it work. That record has really unusual stereo.
