DCX - Flying High Style Mixes

Thought it was about the time to put together a new compilation of Flying High mixes! Wishing there were more harder remixes out there, the "Evoluzion bootleg remix" was pretty cool :) What do you guys think about "Hardstyle Mix"? Do you see hardstyle suitable for the nightcore s...

Re: DCX - Eurodance EP

And the DCX Nightcore versions are also at Spotify! I've been looking forwards to this release since January! In compared to the already existing version of "All The Time", the version on the EP has new backing choir stem vocals recorded with DCX's former singer Katri to give the vocal a b...

Nightcore shows?

As formerly touring a lot with DCX I've been wondering if there are any deejays or groups performing nightcore tracks live or at shows? S3RL is sort of there but more happy hardcore? Which country and/or town would be most "packed" with nightcore fans? Japan/Tokyo sure have a bit of everyt...

Re: DCX Nightcore - The Secret Archives Vol. 3

Thanks for the review in depth! Awesome stuff :) I'm experimenting a bit with tracks; sometimes something that I've deemed not so interesting for the nightcore scene gets more plays than expected, so there are older tracks at the end (the fifth one is from 1998(!) and the accent was something I was ...

Re: Is Nightcore dying?

Hands up was popular in 2007 when nightcore started to gain more traction on Youtube, and it seems people are following the trends on this matter too, so there's sort of progress (or let's call it 'change'?) happening on the scene. As emilemil1 pointed, I've been releasing a lot of stuff that isn't ...

Re: DCX - Flames

Thanks for the input guys :) 'Nightstep' would actually be the right term, gotta fix that on our Youtube. Went with a bit lower pitch of 16% (two semitones) this time, although it feels it lacks the massivity of the original. But maybe the ones who dig nightstep will find it cool. I do like the orig...

DCX - Flames

Bombs away! Got a new tune coming out to stores on Friday! But being a dubstep track (or brostep?), I'm weighing in a bit how much pitch should it have as a nightcore version, what do you guys think? What do you think about the track in overall? It's available on Soundcloud as a download for the fir...

Re: DCX Nightcore : 3 new singles

Ya not all songs work well with 25%, the vocal can sound hurried. Like all three. Yes, seems the songs with less words and longer vowels work better with higher pitch (always personally liked those kind of songs more (La Cream, E-Type, Kate Ryan's Desechantee etc), as long as the chorus is catchy a...

Re: DCX Nightcore - All The Time

Thanks! :) Would you liked to have it faster and higher pitch? It's on a +20% and usually I've used Native Instruments Traktor (got the S4 controller for deejay sets) which is limited to +20%, but it seemed fine for most songs, so now been using the same +20 pitch up with Logic Pro 9 (which the song...

Thanks! Style-wise it's alike with the previous single "Brand New Me" which I like a bit more, but the style works nice as speeded up :) The next single is more vocal trance alike, can't wait to get it released!

DCX Nightcore - You pt II

Here's a new single, in the more traditional nightcore style. Got to pick up the pencil again and tried a new technique approach with cover art to get a more traditional anime look with the hair. How do you like the cover art? And the song?

DCX Nightcore - Brand New Me

If you're following our Spotify you've already seen this but.. :) How do you like the style? Seems there's a lot of current pop, club and pop rock being turned to nightcore, but personally the hands up style feels more proper.

DCX Nightcore : 3 new singles

Made three new tracks and they are out there, a bit faster this time :) Is 168bpm fast enough or should it have been 172-175? Was balancing a bit between these but 168bpm felt stronger. The originals were 138 and 140 so it was a ~20% lift up. DCX Nightcore - Love https://open.spotify.com/album/5lIDy...

What do you guys like about this cover art? It's not the traditional sharp line drawn anime, but I dig the colors and overall look of it. Ordered this from an artist separately, and going to order a new piece soon. https://soundcloud.com/dcxnightcore/flying-high-1999-dcx-presents-nightcore-version W...

Re: Dj Happyvibe - Forever

Was thinking exactly the remake option with today's stuff, could be neat :) The trouble with Fast Tracker etc was all samples were usually a bit out of tune between each others, but it's not a problem with synths.
