Kim Wilde - You Came [80s Power Pop Mix]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 окт 2024
- After making that little shorts video with all the first chords played on 55 synthesizers, I finally had time and energy to tackle the full song and video. Here is Kim Wilde's You Came, beefed and dressed up in all sorts of pastels and wonderful glory the 80s could muster!
Kim (and her team) already did a bang up job with the original, so it was daunting to even start doing something with this song, but I hopefully added some extra flair and oompf while paying respect to the original craftmanship.
It's actually a significant use of reFX Nexus4 and their FM, 80s and 90s expansion packs, but also a lot of Yamaha TX816 (Full DX Glory!), Ensoniq, Roland, Korg and Alesis synths all the way. I used the original album version (or maybe the Shep Pettibone US Radio Edit, hard to tell after all this time as the original files I downloaded were changed) as stems for the vocals, using Vocalremovers.org to separate the files. A little touch up and polishing to remove as much as the artefacts from this process and fattening up the choruses were done, but obviously having the original master recordings would have been best.

Amazing work, 👍 a very PWL inspired production. Good to hear in 2024
I love You Kim 😍
Ooooo fantastico!!!
Som vi sier i Norge; Dette var bærre lækkert! :P
Nåja...en får blæssatu bæljen vel? Hehe!
Thanks buddy! Always good to hear!
Og som vi siger i Danmark: Top tjekket! - thanks, Anders :)
Het was idd lekker, zoals we in Nederland zeggen.
Aww hell yeah. One of my favourite songs gets the Anders makeover. Awesome. :)
Kim Wilde is one of the most underrated talents of the 80s. Glad you picked one of her biggest hits up.
Not underrated at all.
Underrated, hell no. Everyone who lived that age knows her :)
I was born 2002 and I love Kim Wilde's music
@@TrueNeutralEvGenius was starting to write the same. Why should she be underrated? In my mind she's a big part of the 80s.
She was the biggest selling female artist of the 80s in the UK
J’adore
Ez azért is szuper synth remix mert még az énekesnő énekel is benne!!
Every time you do these remixes, you just bring them up to the next level. Love your work as always.
What a beautiful remake of a wonderful original song by a truly sweet young innocent sweet lady
Супер!!! Спасибо! 👍🔥🎶🎧🎤🎛️🎹🥁🎸
YES. Going STRAIGHT on my MP3 player
Fantastic, such an uncompromisingly feel-good song... probably more appreciated these days than it was on release!
1 of the best synthpop? songs. Great remix!
I cannot live without your arps anymore
Freaking ducking great cover!! Love this! :)
This is pure class Anders!! There are so many great songs from the 80s and 90s that I know you'd make a super awesome mix :D
Thank you, yeah... I guess this is why my heart belongs in the 80s. Keeps going back to it every time when I listen to most of the Top charts these days. ;)
Fabulous! Sounds amazing. ;)
Mind blowing great way to put an absolute classic on steroids
Outstanding Anders 👍👍👍🐧👌
Awesome honoring to the Princess Of Britain. Thank you for bringing your magic to my favorite pop mistress!
My pleasure! 🤓🤩
Oh my goodness ! This is even better than the original ! Great job Anders !
Guten Abend Herr Anders Enger Jensen!Sie haben wirklich ein goldenes Händchen,was die Auswahl der Kim - Hits,sowie ihrer Umsetzung betrifft!Applauswürdig.🎵🎵🎵🎵👍👍👍👍
Thanks for getting a great song in my head 😂. Sounds fantastic!
Wow. Making an already very 80s song more 80s.. Awesome! (Best decade for music anyway, don't even try to change my mind 😄)
Thanks! Of course not, I’m just gonna keep promoting that glorious decade of musical marvel! 😎🤘🏼
It is wonderful! 🎉
I did believe that you somehow obtained the original vocal track up until I read the description. The instrumental part is so close to the original at times I was unable to tell the difference. Bravo, Anders! Greetings from Ukraine 💙💛
Thank you! Glad to hear that! It’s the only way for us mortals. Tick Beato on the other hand, has connections so he can get the good stuff. 😂 Hope current affairs in your country resolves for the better quickly. It’s an atrocity and no way to stop the madness! 😢 Best wishes frol Norway! 🤘🏼
@@AndersEngerJensen Thank you Anders! We appreciate all the tremendous amount of help Norway providing to Ukraine from the first days of our defense against terroRussia. Some of the Norwegian "instruments" are saving lives of our sleeping citizens every night, shooting down russian missiles over our cities. We'll never forget it, friends. Thank you, Norway!💙💛
@@AndersEngerJensen If you will ever consider another Kim Wilde iconic song for cover, please do her song Cambodia. The richness and variety of synth chords there is mind-blowing!
Super!!!Wonderfull!!!Special Thanks! Marius(byM.)
legendary as always
Damn good cover Anders! I'm dancing and throwing my hair around like Kim in my studio!
Haha, lovely! Glad to hear that! It ended up pretty groovy here and there. 🤩😂
The best version out there✨Thank you!
A true hit of the 80's that you just made even better, sensational!
quintessential eighties
Cool remix of the song
Duuude. I'd love some more 80's Power Pop mixes in my life.
I had never heard of this artist until just now. Apparently I have some music sleuthing to do! Even taken for itself, the cover is all the amazing I would expect from you, Mr. Jensen. 👍
This remix was just fucking insane
So good!
I think she would like this version a whole lot
I'd love to see your take on Efter Stormen by Marie Fredriksson. I reckon you'd do something truly special with that.
Perfection
Thank you very much Anders, for your music. I love it and it makes me happy. Greetings from Estonia ❤
Thanks! Then I have completed my goal for this song! Hehe! :D
❤
Terrific job Anders!!!
This whole work on it is so so great!!!! Perfect!!
Wow another master piece. Why am I not surprised lol.
Great work 😊.
Thank you so much 😀🤓🤘🏼
@Anders Enger Jensen your welcome very much. Man your work is good. Would love ya to make a song for my games main menu lol
Another banger 👍
Classy cover version, bravo.
This is wonderful! There is no more musical and romantic music than pop synthpop and new wave music from the 80s, apart from symphonic classical, instrumental, and other serious music of course. The melodiousness of this period is beyond competition at all times! And of course, the overall meaningfulness of the concept, this music as a whole, is striking. Its simplicity and deep fullness! This applies to cinema, and to many other works of that time ...
That intro had me Thinking that I was about to get Rick Roll'd
😂 Glad you weren’t after all?
Great remix - well done!
so good!!
Well that’s incredible! If I’d heard that without realising it was your own version, I’d have just assumed it was the original! I remember this was one of the first songs I tried to recreate, using just my newly acquired Ensoniq ESQ’1 in 1988 when this was a new song. You can imagine how that sounded 💩👎😂
Hehe, glad to hear you liked it. Nice that I managed to make it so close to the original. 🤓 We have all been there, working our way up from novices to advanced, you should hear my early stuff from the late 80s/early 90s… 🙈🙈😂
You've even dusted off an old CRT, awesome!
Well, almost. It’s an old LCD. Couldn’t find my DVI to Composite adapter so it had to be this one. ;)
Very cool version Anders! 👍
Just one word:
That’s technically two, but you’re welcome! 😂🤘🏼
Well done - thank you for keeping synth pop alive and relevant!
Another great Video production, and of course great instrument playing by Anders! I simply love these videos ! Can't wait for the next one!
Awesome! Do Jane Child!
FASCINANTE TU VERSIÓN ME REGUSTO
Liked this very much, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤘🏼😄
Amazing work!
Incredible work as always!
Best start of the day when you upload!!
Nice!
Excellent ! Amazing work :)
Thanks a lot! 😊
Nice work Anders!
Excellent work! Love the visuals too!
Mate this is beyond awesome. The vibe, the video, the song! Its perfection! Keep going :)
Thank you! Will do! 😎🤓
This sounds so much better than the original which just sounds muted and faded in comparison.
🤩 Thanks! Glad to hear you think so!
Slay bestie
Like always a really good rendition of an iconic song, and a terrific video.
Thanks, Anders. I do vaguely remember this from the '80s, but not one I really knew. Sounds pretty authentically 80s!
I'd be interested to know how you did the "masking" that surrounded each of the clips in this.
I just uploaded a video myself yesterday, of an original boogie-woogie, but in a Minor key, and using mostly synth sounds, if anyone's interested. It's over on my own channel.
Cheers, Anders, and keep up the great work.
Thanks! 😊 Do you mean the graphics and placing of the various clips playing the parts? Simple sizing down/moving the clips around, sometimes cropping left/right/top/bottom and then adding a layer or two of colour which is then cropped sideways/top/bottom to form stripes. 🤓
@@AndersEngerJensen Yeah, it was the "Stripes" I was talking about. I've done it before by making up a frame in Photoshop and importing it into PowerDirector, but I bet there's better (and quicker) ways than that.
Awesome cover Anders!
Thanks for listening glad you liked it! 🤘🏼
Nice edit Anders. I think you were a little bit too enthusiastic with the 16th highhats at the end of every beat in the chorus. But in general I'm a big fan of all your work. Thanks!
Thanks. Well, the point of this version is to make it a little different than the original because what’s the point of recreating her original 1:1? The 16th beat rhythm is the signature I wanted to embellish.
Jensen signature ❤
А можно ещё сделать "You keep me hangin on"? 😉
Maybe later ;)
I’d love more of these remakes especially from the stock Atkin waterman - but improved ?
Maybe I’ll do some more, but all the good ones I like already sounds great so I have to carefully choose the songs and how I treat them. I usually like to beef them up a little more and add more flair. Then there’s the question if they cause copyright takedowns/strikes or just demonetization. Some are stricter than others. ;)
@@AndersEngerJensen the beef and flair is what makes them lush
Maybe you could do Wham! - " A Ray of Sunshine "
Maybe maybe. It’s a song with potential, but I have a few others in the pipeline. ;)
This is a tremendous cover ! What is that patch you use on the Ensoniq TS-10 ? Is it factory ? Cheers from Canada
Thank you :) It’s a factory sound, OB-X brass or something like that. Layered with a few other synthbrass sounds of course. ;)
Anders, could you please inform what makes that bass sound on the repeated A note at the end? I need to find/make a sound similar to that but can't map it to any other synth sound that I know.
Oh, it’s a mix between Roland MKS-80 «Madonna Bass» (I-77) and some Nexus4 FM expansion bass I don’t remember at the moment. :)
@@AndersEngerJensen Thanks.
Wo hat sich der Mix in diesem Lied versteckt wo soll ich Suchen
Not quite sure what you’re asking for… if someone else did a mix and hid it in my mix? 🤷🏼♂️🤪 I did everything myself by hand, listening to the original and building it block by block. Adding my own flair to it. 🤓
Hi! 😊 - Where did you get the (original) VOCAL TRACKS from...? 🤔
From the original, run through vocalremover.org :)
@@AndersEngerJensen 🙋♂👍😊😎
@@AndersEngerJensen Just tried this with "Paola & Chiara - A modo Mio" (video link below) - very good result.
Except there are a few artefacts, but i think it's mostly a problem because "mp3" was the Original-File ... 🙈
There a few "left-overs" of the "finger-snippets" (with the gated reverb on it) in the Vocal track. "KI-crosstalk" you might say... 😁
Nevertheless, the Ballad "A Modo Mio" is a composition and arrangement worth listening to. (Not to speak of the nearly perfect Voices of the Sisters... 😉).

Made me want to become a Cuban immigrant who eventually becomes a brutal kingpin and then die in a spectacular fashion.
Uhm… not sure how to interpret this…
The most hated Song by nofappers 😂
Maybe so. 😂🙈
Right well.......come on....break it down then. Show everyone how you recreated it. Make uncle Espen proud of you. 😅😊
Hehe, well… it is tempting, but alas. I haven’t that much time on hand with family and daily work, and these how to videos are very demanding (I tend to spend weeks on it). I have some other stuff planned, but we’ll see what time will show. It’s easier to make music and subsequently videos to those (albeit, filming these videos you see here takes at least a few days if not more). :)
@@AndersEngerJensen AAAHHH!!! Excuses excuses.Quit teasing, or are you just paranoid that Espen might embarass you. lol
Next you'll be delegating your workflow videos to Espen in the hope that he "could" do a better job. Come on man, you're more than capable. 😁
