Elizabeth Rose - Stars Ago (RUFUS Remix)

I was always fascinated by the electronic music of the first Destruction Derby soundtrack, and so I decided to try and recreate one of the tracks.

Worked out the bass line, percussion and melody by ear, although it's not perfect, and the instruments and tones vary a bit.

Transcribed in Guitar Pro 5 and touched up and produced in FL Studio 10

For comparison/reference, I'm covering Track 11 from the Destruction Derby OST - "Electronic"

Electronic (Destruction Derby)

PLGRMS released this song in 2015 and I was so inspired by it I sat up late last night with a pretty bad flu and arranged and recorded a cover of it. I don't mind the imperfections in my voice that the flu has caused, so decided to share the track with you. 

I played everything myself and created all of the samples from scratch which resulted in an interesting arrangement. 
Instrumentation: scissors, click, belly slap, clap, lip smack, vocals, maracas, piano and synth.

After a longer pause I have finally released a new track! I genuinely hope that you'll enjoy it. While you're listening, some interesting notes about the background of this track: originally it was meant to feature an excerpt from HBO's Chernobyl, but I didn't want to run into copyright problems.

The title refers to the speech made by the soldier who tells the story of when he shot someone for the first time. He said he expected to be changed by the event, but he wasn't. I thought this was true for most major characters on the show: they had to make decisions that they never knew they could make and were afraid of the idea that it would fundamentally change who they are.
lyrics

Lyrics / spoken word:

Identity is like a wall.

All your life you’re led to believe that you are meant to be searching for it, but this is not true.

You are not seeking your identity, you are it’s architect. You’ll need courage to demolish it, but it will emerge stronger as you rebuild it.

And as long as you have faith that your wall stands for something...you’re still yourself.

You're Still Yourself
