Upon casual listening to the original, it's easy think when it gets mental that "he's just fuckin' about now". After years of listening though, you can hear the sequences and patterns where others hear chaos. Never heard this version before though, I like how it allows you to hear some of the technical intricacies. Barely controlled chaos - love it :)
Don't know if you're referring to beatboxing it. Because "låt" in Swedish can mean "song", "track" and "tune" but also "let". DJ Mizzy also said "it's a totally different *song*". So should I've been saying "This track is complicated." instead?
To me, a song is an art of singing, so yeah :D. anyway, didn't mean to be a grammar nazi, just thought it was funny coz there is like no singing at all and it's a pretty harsh track.
Yes!! You may be right. I always was facinated about the Detailed Drumprogramming on Druqs and how you can work at such so fast music so precisely. It sounds so nice at this low speed that it let me think, maybe we see it the wrong way round. Maybe he maid the Track (Or Tracks) at a certain Speed and then speed it up, by maybe 54%. Then the Voicesamples will sound maybe more legit-isch-er. And shame on the girl gettng up with this (Ohh you, I got her) stupid
No, he doesn't speed them up; he would consider that cheating. But the tracks are fast because he wants it all to fit onto one record, and he has hinted that some songs sound better played at the slower speed on the record player.
Today I listened this song for the first time and I have instantly flashbacks of my ayahuasca trips - that chaotic thing of images going and coming on an endlessly flow that you can’t stop damn... But I love it.
No it's not an easter egg it's that's just the nature of drum and bass music. If you slow them down to a more regular 100 beats per minute it sounds like hip hop. Thanks for this, it's pretty groovy but it's not the best version for sure.
technically if this video has 17365 views and the world population is around 7.5 billion then we are the 0.00000231533% personally i like normal speed better tho
I got it! You're hearing an orbital period of some planet, having been in orbit for millions of years which we get to hear just before...the crazy fucking part is the appearance of civilization fucking shit up. Ah, that sweet floating mass.
To add to this, scientifically the difference between different pitches is the frequency (number of vibrations per second). So if you stretch sound out to double the length you've reduced the vibrations per second by half, dropping the pitch by one whole octave. So far as I know it requires digital audio to be able to timestretch without changing the pitch. If there's a way to do it purely analogue I don't know how.
re: "stretching" it (retaining the pitch) versus simply slowing it down like was done here: the reason you can only stretch things digitally is that stretching requires that you break down sections of the audio into constituent waves (fft) and then reassemble them. this more or less works for plain old sine waves, but if you do it on "noisier" stuff like this, you'll be able to tell that something weird was done to the audio. the effect is really interesting and rdj himself uses it all over the place, but it would sound like the whole song was run through some funky filter. simply slowing it down keeps the original waveform and noise completely intact and, because it's at 54% instead of 50%, it puts it in a different key (somewhere between a half step and a whole step above the original), which also makes it sound fresher. this was the way to do it.
no it sounds great like this, gives it a nice new texture and helps it sounds hella different from the original. if it was pitched up again, it'd sound wacky and stretched
AMEN TO THAT! I swear I've had the worst problems timestretching vocals to give that longer-drawn out effect. it takes very specific samples in my daw to work where other samples will just stutter a syllable or phoneme any software you recommend?
I saw a comment from I'm guessing a person that knew him saying he would "consider that cheating", but that doesn't mean he couldn't be a "cheater". I don't think anyone really cares if he did or not there's something undeniably special about a few of these songs but most fall short... Mt Saint Michel probably hypnotized me😂💀
Great point. But if I warped the drums even in the first (easier) sequences accurately per-point (per-fraction-of-a-bar in my DAW) it would still give a similar effect to what the poster of this video come across. The real question is pitch. And the fact that either way it was released at 100% speed ;) The complex part is is "I am increased the sampling sequence" - does that hint to Richard changing temp???
at first i was like, eh... just another slowed track. then when that beat kicks in, its goes harder than every hip hop track from the 90's (aside from gravediggaz) EDIT: sounds very bad in the middle, def not meant to be played like this
yes it does..... you must be doing something wrong!! please refer to your user manual, a whole universe of sonic possibilities is eluding you.... by the way, i've been using ableton since 2004 and have used this 'trick' many times during a live performance!
actually, positronicpimp is right!!! ableton live is one piece of software that allows you to change the speed of a sample/ track without changing the pitch!!! sampling software has changed in the last lot of years!! you must be using an old programme!!! get with the times, man........
eh? you're talking outta your ass man!!! slowing the tempo in ableton doesn't alter the pitch at all..... it uses complex time stretch algorithms!! now, you can select an option to alter the pitch with the tempo.......
slowing it down diffuses the impact of the sounds--it sounds better/more powerful at the proper speed, and you can still hear the details.. unless you're a total dolt, or nincompoop
That album is so insanely technical and intricate.
***** This shit recharges my phone when its about to die. While simultaneously melting my brain like a microwave.
Hi, I'm Ben. Fix your upload. Jk cool to see you
Badass album for sure
Putting a masterpiece under a microscope
nah. try getting hyped up for a friday shift, on the bus, w this blasting on your headphones, normal tempo
In 10 years people are gonna be sampling these & calling it 'VaporTwin' or 'A P H E X W A V E' or something. Shit's probably gonna be pretty cash.
ratinthecat2 now theres an idea
yes
Notch just linked this with A P H E X W A V E as the caption lol
in 2030 people will be emulating/sampling vaporwave with a 2020 aesthetic but it wont catch on until 2040. Its like a dream within a dream
you dont know psychology you know demons
Oh wow it sounds so fresh after so many listens on a regular speed...
Woah, I can't remember leaving this comment! Six years...
@@Rokannon Sup lol
the juggling of patience between the swung and static chop is fucking nice at this speed. people trainwreck that shit so easily

You provide a good point
Woah! Just goes to show the staggering attention to detail in this album.
Danny Brown need to rap on this
so 54 cymru beat is just some hip hop but with higher pitch and speed? both versions sounds cool actually
The song is complicated.
song. lol
Don't know if you're referring to beatboxing it.

Still wating one of the beastie boys to come in...
Don't wait-theyre gone😀
listened to this song by accident for my first DMT trip : ^ )
jesus christ dude

the robot voice was sampled from berzerk the arcade game
Humanoid Must Not Escape
We can even more appreciate the details in each seconds, that's magical
doesn't have the intensity of normal speed, but it is nice to listen to slower to be able to have more time to analyze the details.
it's a totally different song
wow this is actually as if it's a totally different track what the FOKKKKK.... hiding in plain sight
now it sounds like technical triphop :o
are you serious?!?!?!?!?!?
this sounds incredible
Never realised how swung out this is !!
this is the intersection of my 2 favorite genres: electronic and hip hop
surprisingly badass

*head bobbing intensifies*
No it's not an easter egg it's that's just the nature of drum and bass music. If you slow them down to a more regular 100 beats per minute it sounds like hip hop. Thanks for this, it's pretty groovy but it's not the best version for sure.
"54% Speed" You cheeky bastard
Dang, that's awesome. Ripping this to MP3...
We are the 0.001%, rest of human kind has no idea
Dude what?
to be fair, about half of them have more important shit to be concerned with, like not starving and shit like that
technically if this video has 17365 views and the world population is around 7.5 billion then we are the 0.00000231533% personally i like normal speed better tho
I can kinda relate to that tbh
egomaniacccss )
we are, are we?
6:33 Favorite part in the original and still is in this version
I wish the bit from 2:30 to 3:00 was longer
I got it! You're hearing an orbital period of some planet, having been in orbit for millions of years which we get to hear just before...the crazy fucking part is the appearance of civilization fucking shit up. Ah, that sweet floating mass.
What?!
That’s some acid thought man ima run with that for a listen. Nice one
Audacity can also slow down a song without changing the pitch
It's also free.
quote :D
timestretching and slowing of tempo, aren't those two completely different things? not trying to attack someone here, I'm just wondering.
anyone?

I've heard instances like this on Ventorlin. I'm pretty convinced there were some songs records at higher tempos, then slowed down in samplers.
4:15 insane

This is a title that's hard to explain to someone who isn't familiar with this shit.

for this reason i always wanted this record on vinyl. too bad it's like half a grand to get it..
i am a sad, unhappy man. when i heard this i started laughing with joy.

AMEN TO THAT!
I swear I've had the worst problems timestretching vocals to give that longer-drawn out effect. it takes very specific samples in my daw to work where other samples will just stutter a syllable or phoneme
any software you recommend?
audacity if you just want to stretch time
so relaxing.
1:07 anyone hear the scream in the background?
9:33 sick drop !
Richard has been known to compose at lower tempos like this, and then speed things up
I saw a comment from I'm guessing a person that knew him saying he would "consider that cheating", but that doesn't mean he couldn't be a "cheater". I don't think anyone really cares if he did or not there's something undeniably special about a few of these songs but most fall short... Mt Saint Michel probably hypnotized me😂💀
I’d say it’s not cheating but rather taking time to make all the details to key
This is a game changer
Great point. But if I warped the drums even in the first (easier) sequences accurately per-point (per-fraction-of-a-bar in my DAW) it would still give a similar effect to what the poster of this video come across.

I like this version at 2x speed
yes yes yes
holy moly
its sooooo funky!
Nice tap.
yea i feel it, im not too much of an audiophile so it works fine for me haha
Awesome
I put a crushed lorazepam and two doses of thc in my coffee
Incredible cool!
Reminds me of the time Peel played it at 33rpm
holy shit
Favorite Part: 2:29 - 3:02
Guessing he created it at a slower pace and sped it up
gomy bairs
Caustic Window444 it's actually mommy bear, daddy bear
0:33 guys is that what i think it is
seems like much of rdj's music was made at a slower tempo than released
lmfao puck

Hip hop ready this shit innit?
Still think the original is better
Haven't you any idea of the basics of any modern DAW/wave editor (or granular synthesis for that matter)? ;)
yes it does..... you must be doing something wrong!! please refer to your user manual, a whole universe of sonic possibilities is eluding you.... by the way, i've been using ableton since 2004 and have used this 'trick' many times during a live performance!
please do it with 168BPM :)
I respectfully disagree with your conclusion, this is better at 154% speed.
actually, positronicpimp is right!!! ableton live is one piece of software that allows you to change the speed of a sample/ track without changing the pitch!!! sampling software has changed in the last lot of years!! you must be using an old programme!!! get with the times, man........

Haha this is funny out of context. Wild seeing old comments, I love them, makes me feel like a historian or something cool like that!!
sorry, this doesn't do justice... original is unbeatable!
It sounds shit at this speed.
slowing it down diffuses the impact of the sounds--it sounds better/more powerful at the proper speed, and you can still hear the details.. unless you're a total dolt, or nincompoop
Bof... To slow down this music make it lose its energy.
