The Sunday Refix: Game Over

DISCLAIMER: WATCH RIGHT TILL THE END!

Week 18!
hello you wonderful lot, so its week 18 and I finished this one early meaning Ive actually slept! hurrah! More anime watching for me today! lol
anyway… so this week was a no brainer, as almost everyone whos anyone is on this track!
Instrumentally there wasnt anything difficult to replicate or add, but I was stumpted on what to do lyric-wise. At first I thought to emulate each of the spitters on the track, but that would be A: VERY patronizing to the artists on here, and B: one hell of a long refix.

I was reading all the comments of the original game over track and then it hit me! Everyone has an opinion of the track, and so do I! so there you have it! I simply spat what I thought of who did what on the tune, ON THE TUNE! 😀
I was gonna leave it there, but i couldnt resist spitting propperly on such a sick beat, so i also snuck in a cheeky 8 bar at the end!
Well thats it from me!

REMEMBER you can DOWNLOAD weeks 1-14 of the refixes FOR FREE by clicking the FREE DOWNLOAD section!

asta la byebye! Till next week!

THis Weeks Refix: Devlin Ft Yasmin – Runaway

Week 12! This week is Runaway by the ever so talented Devlin and Yasmin who not only sings, but happens to be my favorite Dj ever!

musically this was pretty straight forward, so instead I decided to focus closer on the lyrical aspects of the song. The original version describes a young man and his girlfriend escaping their surroundings in search of a place that delivers them true freedom, but there are always 2 sides of a story, so I decided to speak from the perspective of the young mans mother dealing with the fact that her child has runaway as it were 😀

the best part of this (and also the trickiest) was transcribing the melody of the hook into guitar. I gotta say, it has a VERY interesting structure that constantly moves, top marks to Yasmin for creativity and execution!

well, thats all from me this week, only 2 more weeks to go till volume 1 of the refixes are up for download too so keep your eyes peeled!
