Good day everyone!
I'm new, though I've been a fan of Nelly's since the beginning. I was attracted to the big beats mixed with hopeful messages and pretty melodies. I find her endless talented and am so proud of her being Canadian.
Anyway, I adored MANEATER when it leaked, and was excited to find that the album version was quite different. As it fades out, you can hear these warm chords come in that I thought were so pretty and was hoping Timbaland would complete an extended mix of the song that featured them--but he didn't!
So I figured I'd give it a try, only I got pretty carried away. The chords are actually quite sad sounding, almost melancholic... I thought that was such an interesting contrast to the production done on MANEATER and realized that this combination is actually pretty typical of her sound.
I'm just a fan with limited resources in music production, but I wanted to share what I did since I knew only other Nelly fans could appreciate it. It's still unfinished, but I think it's interesting enough:
MANEATER (Extended Glittering Street Cut - Cold Ending)

Hopefully I can get around to finishing the mixes--I still have lots of ideas left!!
Let me know what you think!

P.S. I have forums of my own. We're turning 10 years old this Spring, and it's for a little band from Sweden called ACE OF BASE!

P.P.S. Can anyone share the MANEATER remixes with me? I hate to solicit, but it's been such a pain trying to import the MAXI CD....
