Yes, this really is the theme song from the 2001-2005 show, "Star Trek: Enterprise". :-)

Originally performed by Rod Stewart as "Faith of the Heart", it's a track that people seem to either love or hate.

While obviously I love it (or I would not have spent so much time with it!), I see the other side's point: the arrangement for the two Star Trek versions is perhaps overly sentimental.

I felt that the strong lyrics would benefit from a rework to give them a more resolute and determined tone.

If you would like a WAV version, just ask :-)

I decided to go in a completely different direction than the original version of this track - a really moody, progressive/tribal sound.

The original of this track (you can hear it on YouTube) is absolutely superb - I didn't feel the need to reinvent the wheel.  The original has a slightly retro, melodic trance feel.  Definitely check it out too (after listening to this version!) :-)

How can anyone *not* have heard the original version of this song? :-)

A huge hit for ABBA in 1975, and of course it had a stage and movie musical named after it (and that included it).

On closer inspection it is even more brilliant than at first listen.  Most tracks have just two musically distinct parts (such as verse and chorus), but "Mamma Mia" has about half a dozen - all depicting the different crazy states of mind of an on-again, off-again relationship.

The unusual sound at the start of the song is the marimba - a brilliant choice that includes an out-of-key note to really heighten the zany emotions.

As with many remixes, my goal was to make the track a little more danceable and up-to-date, but hopefully still keeping the spirit of the original with its many musical flourishes.

San Francisco-based DJ and producer.

My biggest love is happy, t-dance vocals, but I also play all sorts of house - funky, organic, progressive and deep.  I live in San Francisco, and I love my city immensely - the land, the buildings, the people, the music, and the art!  I also dye silk dance flags, and have been known to flag dance now and again.  

If you'd prefer a WAV of any of my remixes, just send me a message!
