i thought this been done before, found this which definitely doesn't sound like it's been sprinkled with magic catchy dust. Any passing music theorists care to explain?https://youtu.be/g_TEOuyPDNo

oh hell yeah i love that subgenre of pitchshifted pop songs where all the notes are the same

my coworkers have nowhere near the appreciation for this subgenre than I do. (speaker privileges have just been revoked)

Drop that Rick Astley track down to A and you'd have Joy Division.

Finally watched "Teen Sprite" today. Smiled from start to finish--loved it. I don't know enough about chords and stuff to know if it is indeed a transposition or if it's a wholesale remake and not really what it claims to be. But it's close enough to get me thinking the obvious, how different history would been if that had been put out instead. (And I realize some people will consider that notion silly, and will say that history would have proceeded no differently at all.)

in some weird way, it finally sounds as the ultimate pixies rip off song he was trying to write
― tonga, Saturday, 6 January 2018 17:18 (six years ago) link
I might be stepping in it but I'm pretty sure it's mostly a careful recreation, not pitchshifting
― Simon H., Saturday, 6 January 2018 17:23 (six years ago) link
Yup definitely not a simple major chords transposition but the result is really fun/good!
― AlXTC from Paris, Saturday, 6 January 2018 17:27 (six years ago) link
Yeah parts of it sound recreated but the vocal seems genuine
― calstars, Saturday, 6 January 2018 17:38 (six years ago) link
Albeit pitchshifted
― calstars, Saturday, 6 January 2018 17:39 (six years ago) link
I have to imagine a ton of practicing / rehearsing has to go into something like that, when you’re confounding your own expectations at almost every interval
― El Tomboto, Saturday, 6 January 2018 17:45 (six years ago) link
I love this song. Don't know how they did this without an isolated vocal. Will try to dissect it with my guitar teacher next week and figure out what they did.
― Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 6 January 2018 18:18 (six years ago) link
the vocals are obviously the originals pitch shifted, the stems for SLTS are easily accessible
― flappy bird, Saturday, 6 January 2018 22:26 (six years ago) link
any song in a Guitar Hero type game has its stems readily available on the internet
― flappy bird, Saturday, 6 January 2018 22:28 (six years ago) link
stems!
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 6 January 2018 23:16 (six years ago) link
it starts off kind of cool but once the verse starts going it doesn't really sound convincing. i think it's a little like SNL, sometimes the ideas people come up with are really only good enough to last 15 seconds or so but you can always count on people wanting to waste time on the internet

I dunno, I think it's the work of a (talented) soundalike. Some of the phrasing is off, in particular on "oh well, whatever, never mind".
The Rick Astley track is kind of awesome. It's interesting how its monochromaticism imposes a sort of minimal techno vibe on one of SAW's frothiest confections.

doesn't quite achieve the heights of "imagine" / "jump" mash up (essential btw), but it's p good
― Vast Halo
no, those are absolutely the original vocals. the phrasing and delivery throughout the song is identical. it sounds like there could be some doubling on the "hello, hello" parts, but these are the original vocals. i agree "oh well whatever nevermind" sounds strange, that might've been punched in or doubled. but largely the vocals are the originals, i can say with certainty. i can also say with certainty upon further listening that everything else (except the drums) is a complete recreation.
― flappy bird, Sunday, 7 January 2018 22:16 (six years ago) link
totally agree with flappy
― kolakube (Ross), Sunday, 7 January 2018 22:21 (six years ago) link
apparently the guy kept the drums, *re-recorded the guitar parts*, and then pitch-shifted the vocals to matchi am not the guy fwiw. i got that from another board

BTW, I'm 14 and I've only recently become a Nirvana fan (and no, it wasn't because of YKYR :P). It's safe to say that Nirvana hasn't lost any meaning over the years.
