Maroon 5 - Makes Me Wonder [DJ Strobe Remixes]



I loved this track the second I heard it and it was pretty much made for a funky disco-ish remix. It was a really fun record to work on and the finished mix seems less like a remix and more like it could have been an alternative original mix. It doesn't suck that it was so well received and went to #1 on several charts including Billboard and was played around the globe on dance radio and satellite.

PRODUCTION NOTES// The bass was done with Spectrasonics Trilogy run through tube saturation and Waves RBass and RComp. NI Massive was used for the blippy synth sound. AAS Lounge Lizard was used for the Rhoades sound and Steinberg's The Grand and Hypersonic Brite Piano were layered for the Piano sound. Hypersonic was also used for the string sounds. The summery portamento synth was from my Roland Juno 106. Most of the drums are sampled from records or from my library, but I also added a disco drum break from an old Salsoul record from the '70's that I cut up to make it work with the track.
