Just For Tonight (Kawaii Dreams From Mars Challenge)

I really love this Sonic Youth track -- the melancholic vibe, the swirling guitar ambience, and Thursten Moore's slightly introspective vocals -- and felt it would be perfect for sampling for a lo-fi house track. I ended up creating an unofficial remix of this 90s alternative rock classic in the style of lofi/outsider house that I think still retains the feel of the original track.

Apart from the drums and some extra bass, almost all the music is manipulated samples taken from the original track, building on the evocative guitar textures Sonic Youth were famous for. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it :)

BPM: 122
Key: E-minor

Song written by Sonic Youth.

Ministry - Work For Love (Tone Decoder House Remix)

One of my favourite ways to engage with music I love is through unofficial remixes. I think it's a great way to try and learn how the pros write great songs as well!

This is my latest -- a dubbed out remix of the haunting In Flames song "Paralyzed".

Delerium (of Silence fame) are an incredible band, and this is one my favourite songs from their "Mythologie" album. I took JES's beautiful vocals and built a deep house track around them. Let me know if you enjoy it -- or if you would be interested in me remixing one of your own tracks! 

BPM: 115
Key: C-minor
