Waiting for the original uncut versions!! Especially #8

The 5th one was my favorite. They were daring enough to cut out the piano track temporarily to introduce a drumbreak... building up suspense..

#1: Honestly, I think this is one of the best ones. I have nothing bad to say here. #2: Good, but didn't really stand out to me compared to the others. #3: Definitely potential here, but I think it painted itself into a corner by starting out too strong and then didn't have a good way to build up the intensity up later. #4: Good, and distinctive because stylistically different from all the others. I like it. #5: This might be the best one, depending on what vibe you're going for. It takes some risks, and wouldn't be to everyone's tastes, but it also stands out. I like it. #6: Lots of potential here, but I think it needs more work, especially in the second half. I think the growls would be better at a lower volume, but they should be background, and something is needed in the foreground, probably in a higher register, maybe with a bit of a techno feel, some fast-moving upper treble notes with a lot of arpeggios or somesuch? There are other possibilities as well. Basically, I think it could be great with more work, but as it stands, it feels like it is missing something. #7: There's a lot of good stuff going on here, but I'd like to see it build a little more in intensity towards the end. Perhaps that was what he had in mind if he'd gotten to finish? (Also, how long has this video been in the making? I'm pretty sure the war in Ukraine started well more than three months ago.) #8: I'm going to take a moderate position on this one. There's some really nice stuff here, but overall I think that if you're looking for this kind of vibe, #5 does it better. Overall, a good solid contender, but not the very best, IMO. Honorable mention perhaps. So I think my top picks are #1, #4, and #5, not necessarily in that order; these are three very different styles, and which one you pick is going to depend on what mood you're in or what kind of sound you're looking for.

It's clear to me that either you're biased to a certain type of music, which is fine obviously it's called a preference for a reason, or you don't understand the main characteristics of the genre. But I think the point of creating a dubstep track is having the wubs during the drop be front and center, having wubs in the background in my experience sounds obnoxious and distracting, unless you're listening to something like chillstep/ambient chillstep. #8 and #5 are entirely different genres, so I'm honestly very confused here. This is like comparing apples to oranges. Also no hate to Lionel, but it's very clear to me that he is also incredibly biased to a more classically sounding track judging from his reactions during the tracks that used sound effects he could only describe as "weird" while to me almost looking disgusted lmfao. I very much agree with Braxton, you can tell this person has a bunch of professional experience producing EDM.

@@MusicalBasics Point of criticism towards your judging of the tracks. Iirc you are a classically trained pianist, so it makes sense to have a bias towards music that is more classic in nature and design. However, there were several points throughout the video where I found the way you delivered the criticism, to put it bluntly, extremely rude. I also personally feel that you have a lack of understanding of main the characteristics of the genres you chose to have tracks developed in. For example #3 with the melodic dubstep, and #8 with the very modern way of building an EDM track especially in the sound effects. Overall I really liked the video and project, but perhaps next time you could have Braxton identify the genres and build a sample selection of an X amount of songs to "prime" you and help you develop an understanding of the unique characteristics of the genres you're about to review.

@@MusicalBasics Why did you not produce a remix of your own, Lionel, I'm curious? Thanks for sharing and hope to hear from you!

You can tell the 5th guy actually felt the music.

My favourite was 8 ! I'm with Braxton

5 and 8 are my favorites, I want to listen to them in a full version 😸

I seriously love #5. although i wish to have been able to listen to all the tracks fully. thank you for sharing your views for each of these producers, i thoroughly enjoyed watching this video!

These ghost producer hiring videos you make are so entertaining and fun to watch (and listen)! Thanks for the awesome and pure quality content Lionel!

the $595 one was my favorite, I'm with Braxton on this one

DUUMIX - 5th Producer... Crazy heard throughout the universe! $130....if the same price I will use that service for a custom moonlight sonata remix I can use.

I would like to hear the 5th completely

#5 was my favorite. I was dancing to it

NUMBER 5 AND 8 REALLY SENT SHIVERS DOWN MY SPINE, VIDEO NEEDS MORE VIEWS THIS WAS INSANE

Producer 5, most creative and good choices. By far the best value for money!

2 and 5 for my favorite for sure lionel, I'd love to hear the full version of both sometime! great video man.

I thought #8 absolutely destroyed it (in a good way)! The level of production value and creative choice of sounds for it really transformed the song while keeping it true to the original harmonies. Def seemed on a different level than the other mixes. But the other mixes were super solid. Not a fan of dub but I admit #5 knew what he was doing, and did it very well. Really like the epicness of the first 2 and I have a soft spot for the chiptunes so I enjoyed that one as well.

The end result was one hell of a great composition! 🎉

Yep, last full version is fire : gorgeous mix, so much variation and well done transition , a very good integration of piano, add nice countermelody. But the others are also good !

i still like the old musical basics videos with the keyboard looking like its going bounce across the room and exploded gallop and fires of a revolution and fer bethoven

i think number 3, being echoesheart, actually made something resembling what he advertised, that being melodic dubstep. The dubstep genre already has so many growling noises and it appears this isn't something that matches well with this specific melody. So i say he did a decent job by delivering what he promised. (Concidering Dubstep and Classical being polar opposites)

@DarkestHour-kq7gi

@Sudipto Bhattacharyya i also enjoyed it somewhat, but this melody isn't too fitting to be turned into a dubstep in my opinion.

5th and last were my favorites in that order

Just so glad you did another producer competitor video...I wish you could do this for a bunch of classical pieces and have a bunch of cinematically or electronically mixed classical techno maybe make it a series

#5 was my favorite 💯 Went hard & followed through the whole time! #7 Was pretty decent as well 🤝 #8 Agreed! Very Interesting & clean all around!

I loved most is 5th, please release full video, secondly Beethoven 5th, ask him to play.

Oookkk. Listening to all of this, I agree completely with every Lionel assessment of the productions.

this series is awesome!

i like these types of videos, it's really interesting to hear the different styles of various people

Gotta hands down give it to duumoxofficial. He captures that Musicalbasics style and perfectly fits the vibe to the remix. You can feel the passion in his remix.

Bro the 5th guy just teasing the hell out in the beginning 😂😂😂😂

I would LOVE to see the video of your performance to producer #8. Oh yeah, I agree with Braxton!

5 and 8 crushed it.

#8 was fantastic but #5 was excellent too.

I love how the Song is la campanella AND Moonlight sonata 3rd movement

#1 best bang for your buck. Kept the piano sounds and added enough to make it unique. #5 was great too, would really like him to have broen down the piano into the dubstep drops more.

Number 1 was my jam!

I liked the 5th, 7th, and 8th one a lot!

Man. I also really loved #8. But I am a 20 year EDM/ Techno fan.. it would be awesome to see more of these. The evolution of music is incredible. And to have these producers put thier spin on these classics is epic.. thank you for your vids

Definitely 5th producer Duumixofficial

Again, I absolutely agree with Lionel's assessments of these EDM producers--& I RElistened to his EDM La Campanella performed at Barbican Concert Hall, July 2022. He definitely chose The Right EDM engineer [#8 here], to do his dubstep backing for that remix. It was stellar, simply per-fect!! :-)))

Definitely the 5th producer Druumxioffical. Would love to hear the entire piece. ❤

I agree with Braxton. I have the same taste as him and I really liked the echo vocals that amersymusic used. The 'weird talkbox sound' also reminded me of Daft Punk, which I also enjoy. However, as the saying goes, different strokes for different folks 😁

I agree 8 was actually my favorite the guitar was the most impressive because it actually kept the original sound while the other kinda drowned the sound out with other beats and made it hard to hear by using the guitar it leveled out the sound of the original peice and the beats added

Finally man you started to be active, I was actually about to forget about u lol😂😅

Holy shit! Duumixofficial made my jaw drop!

love this !

Loved #8!!

I agree with Braxton, last one was epic!

I agree with Braxton, I really liked the last one as well!

awesome prods, but most goose bumps with duumix

#2 was my favorite.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 track 2

Really like #5 😍

Have to disagree with you on the last composer, I felt it sounded good, out of the group I'd put number 8 in my top two, hard to decide between 5 and 8 for me. I see you don't like sounds like that, but I found it appealing, moreso than what I felt were relatively empty sounding other compositions. While some of the other compositions had some good ideas, good harmonies, it felt like almost no one really did anything interesting with the melody and I felt the composition was narrow, felt very empty at times, most of the compositions really neglected to do much with treble. I feel this is why I liked 8, while the sounds were different they were brighter than most other instrumentations in the other pieces and I felt that contributed more to a wider gamut of frequencies which was more pleasing to me while the other pieces felt more muddied.

It's weird, on first listen of #8 I thought.. "weird, but ok I guess." And then the more you listen to it, the better it gets. Now it's like "This is Baddass!"

Thank you so much!! DUUMIX

Id love a Playlist with the full versions of all of these

The 595 was definitely one of my favorites.

Bruh i opened a fiverr account where you could buy this for 30$ and you didn’t see it. Doesn’t matter nice video glad this is back

I'm with Braxton. It was awesome! Loved the soundscapes, rhythms, instruments, and transitions.

@22:26 Thank you for showing the World, why we need DEI in the work space...💯

Finally another waited video

I completely agree with you on the number 8

i agree with braxton, I personally like the choice of sounds used. Main thing is due to there being so much electronic music, there are so many different sounds and some that are popular in some areas dont mesh with other places.

#8 is way better than you give it credit for!

Thanks again more videos like this. Please do the fiverr winter wind.

Last track was dope as absolute fuck. Your reaction surprised me a little too. I know you know your shit but I listened to that several times. Banger. 10/10 worth the cash.

#7 and #5

Subscribed channel. Loving it!!!

I wish you can upload the individual pieces, I'd love to have them in my music playlist 😅❤

Absolutely EPiC

The 1 was simply epic. The 2 was more into it. It was deep and vibing. I love it. The transition.. wow! Like a drop with no drop. I was feeling like one was coming but it never came but in a good way. The 3, yeah you want dubstep, there you have it. Nice! The 4, I don't like "fake 8bit" sounds, but for what was ordered I think it's quite nice. The 5.. what did he do? It's so deep and building up so much tension. I nearly exploded. The 6 was a nono.. I did not feel anything here... The 7 should be given a chance to finish it if the orcs are gone, he deserves this. It's promising. I love the 8. That trap sound is it.

7# I love this epic-ness in his production, the percussion could be more intensive, but tbh I also don't feel that it's too less of it.

Funny how he didn't like that last one but ended up performing with it on stage later.

This is amazing

Can we have a separate video with all remix variants full length ?

Braxton for sure but the guy should’ve taper the sound out with some lower and chill at the entertain route place. Oh that was awesome.

I vote for Duumix

i think the 8th one was the most epic one!

My favorite was probably Producer 2

Well had to listen to the vid again, didn't I! Lol #1 and #2 were okay, # 3 & #4 were a 'No' #5 I wasn't sure about; a bit too far out with his deviation #6 A 'No' for me too. Too much weird sh!t going on #7 Was my favourite! #8 Agreed with your opinion on this one, Lionel, yet this was the version I heard (and liked) at London. Shows how wrong one can be. Good to see/hear you back on YT...

carlosepicmusic sounded like he was building up to the best drop of all time that sadly, never came.

I agree with you on the odd sound choice (squeaky was the perfect word).... But I still thought that one was the best.

Your best video yet is still the when you play in a room with your crush girl! :)

since you mentioned mushrooms in the end. the last one reminded me a lot of infected mushroom which is fantastic. so yeah. number 8 for me

I'm going to have to agree with Braxton on this one. Although I don't think it was the best it's defo up there.

Holding the beat drop for a full 8 multiple times is a bold move but it worked.

I like the last one definitely

I love Braxton's reaction it wasn't Lionel's favourite.

yoooooo another one of these

Hearing a lot of Instrumental Core i def agree with brexton
