NOTE: This mix is 5-6 years old. I found the audio, which has some fuck ups, but I don't have the original file anymore so I can't fix them... I figured I'd post it anyway.

Schism - Trailerlized Cover

A powerful anthem of resilience, "Unbroken" captures the struggle to overcome inner demons and external pressures. Haunting melodies and driving rhythms underscore a defiant message of refusing to be controlled or silenced. With soaring vocals and raw emotion, the song empowers listeners to break free from their own chains and rise above adversity.

Unbroken" by LTJ Styles delivers a potent message of resilience and defiance in the face of internal and external struggles. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a battle against mental and emotional turmoil, represented by haunting "shadows" and "temptations." The song's protagonist, though grappling with vulnerability and doubt, refuses to succumb to these forces

Anyone who knows me knows I’m a huge fan of the band Tool. Their incredible musicianship, intricate productions (both recordings and live), and psychedelic undertones have been a major influence on me. Since I began my production journey in 2019, remixing a Tool track has been a big goal of mine—and what better song than Lateralus to take on?  

I’ve spent years diving into breakdowns of this true masterpiece, famously tied to the Fibonacci sequence in its timing. That complexity brought some real challenges, especially with extracting, warping and blending the guitar leads and vocals into a house framework.  

I know I’m not alone in loving both Tool and house music. So, to my fellow Tool/house heads—this remix of Lateralus is for you. Hope you enjoy it!

"Schism" by TOOL has been one of my favorite pieces of music since I heard it the first time back when their album "Lateralus" came out in 2001. I was 17 at the time and TOOL's music resonated so much with my young self. It was mysterious, complicated yet flowing and it held so many details (some I still discover today).

My first attempt to create a re-interpretation of "Schism" started over a decade ago. Since then I made countless attempts, but I never felt that what I came up with did remotely any justice to the original. It wasn't until 2023 when I figured that it was okay for me to stick more to the original and that I wouldn't have to re-invent the wheel to pay homage to it. Even after so many failed attempts I still felt the urge to make my own version work. So I concentrated more on distilling the mood of the song and pick parts that I felt I could re-arrange to something that wouldn't need to be an 8-minute opus of a song.

As a main instrument I wanted to use my piano and make a real intimate recording of the basic chords to lead through the verses. I also decided that I want the piano to stay un-tuned for the recordings to keep these slightly drifting overtones. I recorded temporary vocals myself to have a guide for the overall arrangement. What pushed the instrumental to the next level was when Rabea started recording the cello lines I composed. I also asked her to feel free to add weird sounds, bends and bow-plays wherever she sees some space for it. What I got back was a great collection of stems to play with - little details that create this wonderful depth in the final song.

The last step of recording was vocals and I think I had to listen to the instrumental over 100 times to finally nail who I wanted to sing on it - but then it was absolutely clear that Laila Nysten was the spot-on choice to achieve the airy, angel-like vibe I was aiming for. Laila is a super talented singer and instrumentalist and she was part of the string quartets on my previous album Two Windows.

I'm super grateful for all the talented people that help me bring my ideas to reality. It was my first attempt on a cover and it bulked up a lot of weight over the years, but with how it turned out, I'm finally able to let go of it.
