AVGN '80s Pop (New Extended Mix)

Its been about a year and half since i did the '80s AVGN pop version and iv since noticed alot of requests for a longer version... so here is one!. To download, go here: box.net/shared/... . Hope you like :)

[@johneygd]

It really sounds like as if it was made in 1988, just perfect.

[@eduardobsn83]

Sounds like 1984! Like Duran Duran, Madonna, Bananarama, Wham!, A Flock of Seagulls, etc! Very good!

[@dreamlandnightmare]

More like 1983-ish.

[@jorgemcgoon879]

Hello again

@@eduardobsn83 And Queen going Disco. Which was.... more on the late 70's?

[@VeI_2.0]

Yeah. 1983-ish.

This would go great in a Hotline Miami-themed AVGN game. XD MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!

[@whitneyvictory6007]

You came for 1:41 =)

[@Space_Catnip]

you already know :]

[@TheRealGaucelm]

That note flew into my heart, my soul and my guts.

[@TiagoEliasu]

+Whitney Victory (TheWhiteVictini3001) wow you know? haha avgn ep 54

[@TheRealGaucelm]

Yeah, I wish AVGN would do an episode that centered on purely 1980's property licensed games, make the episode look 80's "cool" and "smooth" themed and end with this theme over the credits.

[@bierschmeckt1266]

doesnt make sense to skip there. the effect only hits when you listen full

[@Nino-zg4ux]

damn u really went back to 84 with this one

[@SoraxSpace]

The way it drops around 2:31 is just beautiful. Amazing job, thanks for uploading!

[@emxcxc]

I hope AVGN listen to this. they would be amazed

[@TrevarThePastor]

cowabunga it was actually featured in the Evil Towers episode. I think that's the name, something along those lines.

[@tartuffethesprywonderdog5883]

They? AVGN is one guy.

[@5udimax]

@@tartuffethesprywonderdog5883 probably was reffering to both James and Mike.

[@Rogerthegood]

So far the best remix of the AVGN I've heard so far. Good old synths sound!

[@Extremezotako]

Yes

[@gctechs]

8 tracks were pretty much out of fashion in the 80s already. More like casette tapes.

[@1337rofl]

@pallmanni The 80s is all about reverb.

[@jenniferpruitt6534]

This and the orchestral version are definitely the best! Just watched the AVGN movie and loved it! There was an idea pitched for a sequel centered around the Swordquest treasures! But due to all the time it took to make the movie it was scrapped....

[@vai90]

Kinda funny that something based on Swordquest was scrapped...

[@osobean8628]

TOTALLY 80's!!!!

[@Jagerfox]

I used to listen to this song on repeat for hours last year.

[@LexEllis]

This is the sort of song you blast while driving down the highway in your red Audi Quattro or black Trans AM with the sun setting behind you with "AVGN 1" as your license plate now THAT is 80s! ^^

[@turdcalzone7636]

too eighties. dont forget the car radio with THE handle, so you wont lose your precious media apparatus. also wish yello! style of vocal works to this so goood

[@LexEllis]

@@turdcalzone7636 OH YEAH!

[@definitivamenteno-malo7919]

Man... already 40 years since the 80's... already 30 for the 90's... and I'm here about to make 30 next year... And.. it hurts a lot. It hurts a lot since I can only feel nostalgia and a feeling of incredible anxiety because I feel like my life was completely wasted due to reasons that I was completely powerless to have... I don't want this to continue... I fucking wish to go back in time... This is killing me.

[@DutchGuyMike]

@@definitivamenteno-malo7919 Be glad that humans age far longer than ever before! In the the times before the Industrial Revolution people usually lived up the a MAXIMUM of 30 years old (I became 30 2 weeks ago). So you still have at least another 20-30 years in which you can do what you want and still feel young (enough)! Instead of being sad over the past, be joyful for the future!

[@isaiahharris609]

This is freakin awesome actually sounds like a new wave 80s song!!

[@HelloMyNameIsShun1]

nice, gotta love italo disco

[@TheRealGaucelm]

This song is one of the COOLEST THINGS EVER.

[@FridaysMaskedMan]

Never gonna give you up ! Never gonna let you down Never gonna let a buffalo take a diarrhea dump in your ear ! Awesome remix !

[@simone2059]

Very stylish , like it =). It gets the 80s spirit so well

[@RexRenart]

this theme remix sound like modern funk, Nickee B. songs. :)

[@anthonyvasquez6113]

1:41 deadly towers episode start

[@HORSIKify]

best AVGN remix ever!

[@ahsdjsdgfhjgdhhhhhhh]

LOL! Easily the best version of this song!

[@Goreface69]

Simply the best. I ONLY wish the ending would end like the original 50-sec one you did for the AVGN with the slowdown and slow arpeggio.

[@crtinkering7323]

If the song was shortened ... it sounds like a song that would be on the radio!

[@ZoSo_x]

This would've been epic as the intro/credits song for the AVGN movie.... missed opportunity :/

[@Stefwich1911]

I can just imagine AVGN with a Lamborghini just skidding into an orphanage, flipping everyone off and driving away with his liscence plate: NERD1

[@VeI_2.0]

Perfect 80's deliciousness.

[@VEE0034]

I could see this going well with a GTA 6 trailer

[@Extremezotako]

Yes

[@KantoOfOnett]

There's gonna be an AVGN movie!? Awesome! xD This mix is awesome, by the way.

[@YoshiFan501]

remindes me of thriller

[@Sakurball]

What exactly is this guy gonna do again?

[@StrayFire]

AWESOME! DUDE!

[@WatchVenusSpa]

I was wondering if I could use this mix in my web series, it rocks!

[@2057ajdj]

If I have a RAVE there's no doubt this is gonna play

[@davidnavarro4821]

It’s been years now and I still enjoy listening to it ! Did you produce it using analog synthesizers ?

[@digitalnativedance]

Nope everything was with the few emulations I had which where: FM7, Pro53 (old native instruments plugin) and a spattering of vintage drum samples I got of a CD somewhere.

[@DixonYamada737]

Your mullet slicked back , a pencil next to a box of colorful cassette tapes , the box itself being a re-purposed shoe box , and to your side is a nes cartridge fresh in box you had bought from your towns video store , on your way home to pop the sucker in , you tune to channel 3 and turn the system on and then you scream and curse in disgust on how much of a shitty game it is . Or at least , I would have to assume the nerd did

[@jorgemcgoon879]

My favorite part: 2:32

[@TheSlimification1]

Great job!! if you were producing like this in the 80s you'd be set for life by now!'But whos to say you're not

How are there so many good AVGN songs?! :D

[@Extremezotako]

Because yes

[@Champ1993]

you really should make a tutorial how you make that 80s style on Fl studio or sth else... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

[@HelloMyNameIsShun1]

not sure is that is a guitar/string ensemble your using or is that FM synthesis at 2:32 sounds sega-ish very friggin cool.

[@WSYseanwu]

I want to learn something about making 80's style music.

[@SPGoblivion]

holy fucking mother of awesome you get 5 internets my good sir/madam

way to go loved this great talent! I am an 80's music freak and I love AVGN so this is perfect haha thanks again!

[@LawrenceWhittle]

Why haven't I ever heard of this before?

[@ackbarfan5556]

Gotta love the 80's

[@LexEllis]

This is amazing, this is some serious ringtone material right here :D

[@LexEllis]

God bless you

[@digitalnativedance]

they're from a sample cd called 'deadly drum kits' which i found on ebay. you can most probably find them on other vintage drum machine collections too (along with the more infamous roland 808 and 909 kits...). i suppose it wouldnt be too difficult to find a demo of a LinnDrum machine on the net and sample the individual hits if you wanted them for free.

[@Avrelivs_Gold]

it's perfect, James needs to feature these on his channel

[@Oerg866]

OMFG This is so awesome. I adore italo and all the related genres. I have to record this on tape. NOW.

[@watcheem]

This is awesome! :D

[@Extremezotako]

2:32 is easily the best part

[@SlavTiger]

...to play the shitty games that suck ass?

[@crazelarious]

Well this is a weird feeling.... I was searching for a good avgn mix and I found this!! Only thing is, I did this back in 2009 too and found the same song. This song... Inception.

[@southstar44]

No, they're from the FartMaster 3000 kit.

[@FinaleeNG]

What a lovely remix! The 80s was definitely the best time period for pop music.

[@LoyalPadme]

Very 80's...totally tubular! :) 5 stars and a fav!

[@nicotjuh]

It almost sound slike an 80's intro show

[@mrfourtysevenman]

and the drums go DU DU DU DU DU DU DU DU

If James as a kid was the AVGN, this would be the theme song.

@Lusebusen hahaha.. the "jelly" is an expression michael jackson used to say about that certain part in a song that makes you want to dance... I believe the jelly come in at around 1:45

Starting at 2:30 got me 😎👌🏻

[@digitalnativedance]

maybe, but i wanted it sound slicker and punchier. I also thought it would be more interesting to use the opportunity to tweak the mix make it fresh.

[@axivmaxivna5406]

Pure awesomeness.

[@karasZero]

Epic remix.

[@digitalnativedance]

@Champ1993 yea i've been thinking about doing that for a while actually. i'm using cubsase 5 but the principals are the same for any music software really.

[@peterpitcard]

is des geil alder

[@RickRomo]

this is very well done, excellent mix down .. you saved the hook lead and dropped what I like to call the " Jelly" at the right time ... from one beatmaker to another.. this is fresh...
