sad_infamy_sings - Oh, Fox River (ilzxc remix)

By ilzxc on January 1, 2023 8:03 pm

A remix of Oh, Fox River by sad_infamy_sings.


It's all too fitting that the last track is a remix, and is also the first WB colleague I reached out to for a collaboration, way back mid January.


Sad Infamy's songs are more fluid and free than most things I've done, so approaching their material was not without a certain anxiety. I genuinely think that sad infamy originals have a sincerity that is kind of off-limits --with all their field-recording-esque on-site recording, fourth-wall-breaking, storytelling aspects (and their songs, music, lyrics, poems, writing). So the remix is kind of none of these things -- just M8 + Felt Instruments.

Happy New Year, everyone! I guess we made it through 2022... I thought for a while of something to say looking back at WB, but I think the summary is rather brief.


› 2022 WB thoughts


I wanted to thank the folks who were kind enough to let me mess about w/ their sounds & music in 2022 (in chronological order):
gesceap, wangus, raja, ipaghost, noggin, jimmac, laamaa, ineff, emily, license, and sad_infamy_sings.

And to folks who listened and left comments, even after September mark when things weren't going great for me and I slipped (a lot) on listening -- thank you, sincerely, and I'll return the favor sooner than later. Thanks to everyone who's been making tunes this year. It's been dope.

I'll see y'all on the flip side.

Muchas gracias hermano! Thanks for pushing me to jump into the fray - been awesome seeing you absolutely kill it every week.

I enjoyed listening to your remixes and sonic explorations this year.  This is another good one for sure.  Hope you're able to have a restful 2023 and maybe see you back here in 2024!

Amazing remix! Perfect production, flawlessly composed, a most beautiful setting for an amazing voice heart
Congrats on 52 weeks and Happy New Year!

You production has truly been an inspiration. Your remix skills are fully flexed, thank you for sharing your art. May this new turning of the wheel be a wondrous gift to you and yours.

great remix!  Sad_Infamy_Sings is the jam, this is a great meeting of the minds.  Apt description about the style clash.  sorry i was a dum dum and didn't get you stems but you know how the WB chaos goes - next time!  smile

SO AWESOME getting to know you and getting a new best bud out of this whole affair as well as a TON of sick, mind bending music from you.

GIGANTIC hugs to you and please keep in touch in 2023!

this is one of the best songs I have heared this year on weeklybeats. it was something I did not expect. the combination of both of your talents are successfully played out. i thank you for taking notice of my music and all the encouraging comments. have fun, success and stay healthy in 2023.

This is awesome! A great meeting of the styles and minds indeed! Enjoyed hearing your tunes this year. I have slipped on listening as well. Best to you, and see you on the flipside! 

I love this mix of folk and strange beats heart happy new year!

Beautiful sounds, great collaboration, stellar final track. Congrats on making it to the end. smile

That is such a tasty mix. And HOW DID I MISS ON SAD_INFAMY_SINGS? Alright, will have to go back to their track this year, it sounds really awesome.
This track is really pro level, the production and mix are so tasty. The folksy/traditional vibe of the ukulele and the stutter kicks are such an interesting mix. The singing is fantastic. What a great way to conclude this year. Thank you very much for all your tracks in 2022. It's hard to get through it when life gets in the way but it was impressive to witness you deliver wonderful tracks week over week. I hope to see you again in 2024!

You've enhanced their work really well, it's nice to have this at the end of the year.
Happy new year.
