First of all, holy cow I absolutely adore the original track. Definitely Kandi's best work, it has such an uplifting feel to it.
Nice trance gates at the beginning, though I think they get a little repetitive after a while. I'm at 0:54 and hardly anything has changed in the track so far.
1:55 - theeeere's the chord progressions I was looking for! I would think about using those changes earlier in the track, like I said to break some of the repetition. I understand though that this is still a WIP, so feel free to disregard those comments.
One thing I will say - while it's very well done, it's extremely similar to the original track; there's not a whole lot of difference between the two. The melodies are exactly the same, the trance gates sound similar, etc. Aside from some structural differences, they're almost the same track. If you're looking to really get a nice remix out of this, I would think about making some more dramatic changes to the original.
Very professional sounding as always though man!
