Hi!
At http://www.suprnova.org/ you can find The Roxette Gigamix 2003 Video (mixed by DJ Black Style, edited by me).
The password to uncompress the rar-file:
www.torrent.to
If you download it, i would be happy if you could write your feedback here cause it’s a kind of editing practise for my studies.
Thank you and have fun!!! :-)

before i am going to download this HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE file: What is it? What do I see? I mean, for most of the songs mentioned is never a videoclip made... so what do i see?
WhiteThunder said on May 9, 2004 17:34:
OK here’s the story of the video:
Some weeks ago I found the Roxette Megamix 2003 MP3 somewhere on the net. I thought it was great and I decided to make a videoclip for it.
And It’s right: many songs don’t have a video. So what did I do? I made videos for them! Sometimes I took a live-clip from a roxette tour for a song without video und cut it the way that the studio-music fits to the live-appeareance (like on the original Listen To your Heart video). Or sometimes I took material of the videos of songs that aren’t in the mix or I used material from two Roxette documentaries.
All in all I think that it’s great to listen to and great to watch. So try it yourself and tell me your opinions. Every good or bad feedback is welcome to make my next projects (maybe some Roxette-Thing again) even better. Thank you!!!! :-D

If I click the link it opens a text-file.
Or do I need to have BitTorrent installed on my pc to download the file??
I won’t do that.
Too much changes of virusses nowadays.
WhiteThunder said on May 9, 2004 18:49:
Yes, you need to open the .torrent file wit a bit torrent client. If you take the one from the link below you can be 100% sure that there are no viruses in it and that nobody can send you viruses trought it:

Ermm I downloaded this remix from roxbytes the other day.. it’s good.. but took a long time even with broadband.. I think I shall pass on the video version! ;)
WhiteThunder said on May 10, 2004 19:15:
Thanks for everybody who’s downloading it! I really hope that it’s worthy, i’ve worked very long for it. And you do me a big big favour posting your opinion about it here! :-)
ally77 said on May 10, 2004 20:08:
I am just curious but did you get permission from the maker of the remix to use the track to make a video?
WhiteThunder said on May 10, 2004 20:23:
@GTzeRox: Thank you very much!!!!! I’m really happy that you like it!!!! :-D
@ally77: No, I didn’t get a permission of him. But I think it’s ok since I don’t earn any money with it and I believe that he dind’t have the permission of Roxette or EMI to do that Remix or to distribute it over the internet. Both of us are trying to do soemthing great for the fans. And BTW: DJ Black Style is mentioned in the intro of my video, so everybody knows that the music isn’t my work.

pietROxette said on May 11, 2004 07:14:
Wow, it sounds cool! Would it be possible to upload it to a server? I’m in the office with a 2 GBit connection but it takes more than 500 hours to download the file. I can give you server space if you need :-)
WhiteThunder said on May 11, 2004 10:55:
@princesscoolio: Thank you very much!!!!!! Words like these are great to read!!!!!! THX m8, I apreciate it! :-D :-D :-D
@pietROxette: Yes, if you give me server space then I can upload it! But I won’t be able to do that until saturday. Hope that’s OK!
ernes said on May 12, 2004 18:48:
@pietROxette: Please, as soon as you have it on Roxbytes inform us.
Thanks for all.
ernes.
WhiteThunder said on May 12, 2004 20:38:
@harriej: Thank you!!! Man, I’m so happy that everybody seems to like it!! Looks like it won’t be my last Roxette-Project... :-D
harriej said on May 12, 2004 21:12:
If you can stay on this level, I can’t wait until I see or hear your next project.
WhiteThunder said on May 12, 2004 21:25:
I hope that I can stay on that level or even become better. There are still some things I have to learn and try... :-)
Kecho said on May 16, 2004 18:07:
could you please write me direct link where to download that one? i looked at roxbytes, but didnt find it... :(
WhiteThunder said on May 16, 2004 19:46:
Seems like Suprnova and torrent.to are down atm. But it should be up at Roxbytes very soon. pietROxette already has it and he told me that we’ll up it on Roxbytes this weekend...
pietROxette said on May 16, 2004 20:01:
It’ll be available from ROXBYTEs soon. Unfortunately the upload went wrong and the file on the server was corrupt. :-(
I’m re-uploading it again.
WhiteThunder said on May 17, 2004 21:32:
Big THX to pietROxette! As I see he converted it to DivX so everbody who wants a smaller version: there it is!
Please keep writing your feedback here to make my next projects even better! Thanks to all!! :-D
Emil__BG said on May 20, 2004 15:29:
Thanks Pietro for converting it and uploading to roxbytes..
WhiteThunder –Great work!!!
Thanks a lot for hard work!!!! It’s great to watch so much songs mix together!!
There no so much artist who have so many beautiful songs ,so to be possible to make such big mix :-))
WhiteThunder said on May 20, 2004 18:06:
Thank you!!! :-D
That’s right: It’s hard to find any similar remix of other bands. Al least no one that contains 49 songs...
erweetiran said on May 25, 2004 19:04:
Can someone pls help.. I downloaded the video but when I watch I hear perfect sound quality but the image has little blocks all over it almost like watching a very slow realplayer video over the internet....?
regn said on May 25, 2004 20:12:
ThanX a Lot Withe thunder & Pietroxette great work ,ahh almost forgot a double thanx to pietro for czech documental very very good
pietROxette said on May 26, 2004 10:16:
@regn: the czech documentary was made by TOM, so all thank you-s should be addressed to him
@erwee: I think that’s a codec problem. Get divX 5.11, it should play fine.
infofarmer said on May 26, 2004 13:04:
Thanx to Thunder for a great work!!! There are some out-of-sync moments, but for a home-made video - its perfect. I think you’d be a wonderful movie editor.
And thanx to pietro for compressing and hosting the thing. Traffic prices are still a bitch in Moscow.
Now I’ll go click google-ads on roxbytes :-)
Zargo said on May 27, 2004 11:28:
I enjoyed your work WhiteThunder, keep it up!
I think the most inspired part would have to be the ’little miss sorrow,’ part of the remix- with the video beginning with ’Anyone’ and unexpectedly throwing it into ’she doesn’t live here anymore,’ when it hits the chorus.
Good stuff! :)
WhiteThunder said on May 27, 2004 22:31:
@regn, infofarmer, Zargo: THX alot for the nice words!!!! :-)
@infofarmer: I hope I’ll have the chance to become an editor and earn my money with it. It really has become a passion of me over the last months.
@Zargo: Yes, that part is one of my favourite parts of the video. And when I now watch the video again, weeks after finishing it, I’m once again impressed how the music and the content of some songs almost perfectly fit to the videos of other songs... I really like that!
harriej said on June 1, 2004 20:19:
WhiteThunder: Great positive input from you this video.
Can’t wait until I see your next project :)
WhiteThunder said on June 3, 2004 20:00:
Thank you! :-) At the moment I don’t have much time (exams, school projects, ...), so the next project has to wait a bit. But starting this summer I will work at a TV production company for 6 months and I can use real professional equipment for my own projects if I want to. So I guess I’m going to do something big there. And maybe it will be Roxette-related.
So if somebody has an idea what kind of Roxette-video-project I could start there: please give me your ideas!!!! Maybe I can realise it!
WhiteThunder said on June 3, 2004 22:23:
Yeah, another remix could be an option. But I rather would like to do something else, something new. But I don’t really know what (until now). Just have to think about it for a while... :-)
qrox said on June 4, 2004 04:26:
WhiteThunder: Why don’t you make a “concert” with the best live videos?
QRoX
WhiteThunder said on June 4, 2004 14:45:
That’s a damned good idea! I will think about that!!! Or maybe a live-remix would be cool, too. Depends on how many great concerts I can find to download, cause I have almost everything on VHS and no capping card...
harriej said on December 14, 2004 22:13:
WhiteThunder: Any new projects going on?
Your previous one (the gigamix) was fantastic.
yellowtigger said on December 16, 2004 12:29:
Really is Gigamix on?
I cant open the link......
Please, anyone, can tell me anything? ;)
Thanx!! I want to see this beauty video!!! :)
harriej said on December 19, 2004 11:42:
It WAS there, but not anymore.
I have it on my computer, but since it is around 700 MB, it is impossible to mail it.....
And i am quite sure I don’t have enough webspace available from my provider to put it online.
One more problem I notice is that the quality of the video seems to be getting worse (maybe I play it it too often).
WhiteThunder said on January 20, 2005 00:08:
Hi Everyone!
Just wanted to tell you that i’m currently working for a small art video production company as an internship. That means a lot to do and no opportunity to make a new mix-video at the moment.
But there is something comming later this year: Together with the DJ who mixed the (audio) Gigamix 2003 I’m going to do a REM Gigamix 2005 (maybe it gets a better name...). He’s already mixing the music and I’m going to edit the video for it later. I’m really looking forward to it.
And I’m also thinking about a Roxette Live-Remix-Video... Let’s see :-)
