My remix of 'Fragments Of Time', this is one of my favourite songs off of 'Random Access Memories' which I adore, it features Todd Edwards who had previously sung on 'Face To Face' off of their 'Discovery' record and it is very different from 'Face To Face' actually, it feels very country-esque, I'd even go as to say it's a beautiful piece of soft rock music and it even has like a funk drum beat to it, I wanted to experiment with this song and make a remix that doesn't change much from the original like a tribute remix, I added a few piano chords, some guitar chords as well and a synth line as well while also doing a few cut-ups to give it that little 'Face To Face' feel and this is the result, I love Todd Edwards' vocals on here, he sounds so good and I loved listening to 'The Writing Of Fragments Of Time' on the 10th anniversary re-release of 'Random Access Memories'.

Daft Punk - 'Fragments Of Time' ft. Todd Edwards [Fluence Remix]

Who is Fluence you may be wondering, here's his full story: 

'Fluence' is a young aspiring musician and also film director, he wrote/directed his first short film back in 2019 titled 'Beyond Dreams' which won an Award and got him his diploma as 'Film director' however when he isn't on set making movies, you can find him in his studio making music. 

He started out back in 2018 doing a few DJ sets in some small bars and then the following year started messing around with samples and loops, he then started learning how to remix following a course he did with a music producer/engineer and went on to make remixes for artists like Daft Punk, Justice, Elton John, Dua Lipa, Todd Edwards, Le Knight Club, Oliver and even planning on remixing his own material. 
These remixes are released on 'Scratched Records', Fluence's label and he was able to remix classic tunes such as 'Rhumba' by Le Knight Club, 'Sacrifice' by Elton John, 'Face To Face' by Daft Punk, 'Go With It' by Oliver and even 'DVNO' by Justice. 

He plans to continue his journey of remixing and also collaborate with other artists while delving into more original projects too and he hopes to be able to share his music to the world and just make people dance and have a good time on the dancefloors and in festivals too.

Surrounding his inspirations, he takes a lot of inspiration from the French electronic duo, Daft Punk and is a fan of 2001's 'Discovery' studio album and their Grammy Award-winning album, 'Random Access Memories', he is also developing with each release his own sound in music.  

He also loves the concept of sampling and filtering forgotten disco loops and reworking them into funky new songs with lyrics written by him and he definitely thinks that the French house movement inspired him a lot in his own material and paying homage to the band he looks up to: Daft Punk.
