I haven’t really thought about remixing this track again since the last time but when I was making this beat I was hearing the acapella over it straight away, whilst I was making the different flips and working out the layering I kept finding myself spitting these verses from DOOM in my head, and I began to structure the beat around how it could fit the verses. Again this is really going for the emotional side to what DOOM’s talking about, but in an even more aggressive way. For last year’s remix it was more subtle with the piano being a lot quieter and subdued, the vocals too. This time the sample has way more aggression and weight to it, conveying that pain in a very different way. This made me sure I wanted to remix the track again cause I’d be doing something different, whilst still focusing on the side to the subject matter which I find most powerful personally. I think it’s cool how here the beat is initially quite happy sounding and carefree, the piano definitely is not sad melodically like the time before. When I was chopping up the sax parts of the sample I knew it would change the vibe though, and I thought that was perfect to layer when DOOM starts moving away from the positives of the Ladies and towards the negatives. I tried to structure the melodies in this way throughout the remix, with the ‘making love to a shadow’ vocals coming in towards the end as the track crescendos, I thought those vocals were a good fit with this track, speaking on the empty ‘shadow’ relationship that drugs ultimately bring. I’m definitely happy with how this turned out, I can’t decide if I like it more than what I did last year, they’re so different to me which is ideal honestly. I will say I’m glad I gave this one more of a journey, not just one vibe for the whole track, instead fluctuating from hopeful melodies to more aggressive sad ones, to mirror how DOOM seems to be happier when he’s first meeting the Ladies, but with time begins to point out their flaws and reflects on the negatives. 

Hope people like this remix, definitely let me know how you feel about it when compared to last years, would be really interesting and helpful for me, I’ve been thinking about it a lot since I’ve been working on this.

Peace!
