Circus - Britney Spears - RAW Multitrack and Stems Reaction

[@savagebuck]

The male background vocals was CLAUDE KELLY. one of the composers/producers.

[@savagebuck]

BLACKOUT and the rest of CIRCUS has some of the best-produced pop songs EVER. Sonic Alchemy and Engineering at its finest. It will make even the most meticulous producers envious of how something so masterful could be crafted. My must listen: Freakshow, Toy Soldier, Mannequin and Kill the Lights.

[@2010JackC]

The female backings are Cathy Denis and Myah Marie and male are Claude Kelly

[@elijah2604]

Britney has the best instrumentals, you can do her song Gimme More, it's really good imo

[@luffegun]

its on my hit list! i really want to do Give me more. i think i ll do break the ice next becuase i have it but ill take as much Britney as i can get!!

[@elijah2604]

Oh man yes! Gimme More is one of the best instrumentals ever!

[@hellogoodvibes4690]

Yes gimme more

12:22 this guitar part sounds especially sad, there is something sad and nostalgic about it

[@janiner8047]

wow this really shows how much work they put into one song. so many tiny little details that you wouldn't notice otherwise. I'm shocked by the guitar bit, I never noticed that before.

[@ProducerAlex]

You can tell how the producers put a-lot of care into the production and the details , it makes trap beats sound like a joke 🤧😂

[@George-e7t]

OMG! THATS THE CHANNEL I'M DREAMED ABOUT! PLEASE DO MORE BREAKTHROUGH OF CIRKUT & MAX MARTIN PRODUCTIONS!

[@blazing6string]

Britney fact I’ve met her a dozen or more times, I also had to “babysit” Jamielynn when she was young. I was a manager at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas when it was inside Caesar’s Palace forum shops from 2000-2006 and Brit and Justin were dating. *NSYNC and Britney bought the whole place out and had a big VIP party and I had to make sure Jamielynn didn’t get abducted or do anything stupid lol good times

[@luffegun]

WHAAAAAAT!?!? That is amazing!!

[@blazing6string]

@@luffegun true story. She came in loads of times. Once the day before she was married for 55 hours. Love her. She always got a kick out of my name being Brittin too

[@luffegun]

@@blazing6string That is amazing! what does someone do at planet hollywood for 55 hours!?? We used to have on in Melbourne in the 90s that i had been to just once. i bet you saw alot of well known people in your time working there! you should write down all your encounters or start a podcast series!

[@blazing6string]

@@luffegun oh haha sorry Britney had a 55 hour marriage to Jason Alexander I think it was and she came in to eat the day of or the day before that marriage. Only reason I remember that is I wrote a song that day and when I showed it to my band mates later in the week I gave it the working title of 55 hours in honor of Brit coming in

[@blazing6string]

@@luffegun I did meet a lot of them! Some were cool some were not. Christina Applegate, Drew Carey and Michael Jackson were some of my top favs

[@redpuff7050]

The production from that album is very genius

[@luffegun]

I really enjoy it! cant wait to do Break the Ice soon

[@Mrs.blt84]

I am one of those music people who played an accompaniment instrument so i naturally sing along with the instruments and follow the harmonies instead of the melody so i am so glad i found your chanel!!!. Britney has some of the most creative, fun and unique productions of any artist ever and I am excited for any song you choose from her catalog but her Blackout album is a masterpiece!

[@luffegun]

Thanks so much for finding me Heather! I hope to be back with more Britney in my next series of Midnight Mixes episodes. Missing it already! I love to sing along to these so I’m glad someone feels me on that (most people tell me to shut up haha)

[@guillaumemontagner5572]

Can’t wait for break the ice 😍 her vocals are awesome on this

[@officialchrizzz8766]

Ive been inspired by britney to make my own sounds, but of course I'm sure I'm the only one who enjoys listening them haha. On top of that, hearing this type of production gives me a whole new perspective on how clean you can be. I did lose all of my sounds, but listening to this really opens a whole new door. Im not going to copy it, but I will incorporate because the way this is all put together is quite genius. How can someone be so perfectly timed, perfect sound, prefect EQ everything LORD so perfect!!

[@luffegun]

YES! that is amazing i think that you should totally go for it and i mean even if you 'copy' it it will still totally turn out to be your on rendition and of course will be an inspired version of something that becomes your own! i would love to hear what you come up with! please keep us updated!

[@jurajvivana]

Great job, pls do more Britney😍😍

[@luffegun]

you bet i will!! cant wait to release more!

[@jamesbrodie7525]

She went for her full voice in that pre-chorus when she performs this song live!!!

[@eternodisperare]

this was SO fascinating to watch.

[@CharmedGaymes]

OMG, this has given me a new light and love for this song!

[@aguy827]

Fun fact, dr Luke and benny actually produced all on the grid in audio and stretch and chop each sound manually.

[@luffegun]

that is awesome! goes to show that kind of nitty gritty work pays off!

[@sovwik9103]

such a great team work

[@epacolips1974]

You should do Heaven on Earth !!! From Blackout, musically in my opinion is the best track on the album. ❤️

[@aguy827]

Those extras backgrounds are from Claude Kelly (one of the songwriters)

You'll find with a lot of these dr Luke songs that each kick is layered like 10 times lol

We need gimme more hahah, amazing video!

[@luffegun]

Tell me about it haha I’ve been trying with all my might to get access to it! I do have break the ice I’ve just had to repair my old pro tools computer to get the files off.

[@Artom14]

@@luffegun I think people want Gimme More is because it's basically Britney's signature at this point. I know it's 9 years into her music career but with Gimme More it gave us the iconic line "It's Britney Bitch". I have also listened through some stems for Gimme More and I'm just amazed how good it is and I think general public would agree on it! Overall it is a part of Blackout album which is now called "Bible Of Pop" due to it's influence for the music industry. I think rolling stone magazine said at one point how the entire industry mocked her during 2007 and 2008 but everyone started copying her. Which I find pretty funny since the industry is just a hypocrite at that point haha. I also do find it hard to comprehend that this song was hated when it first came out. The main reason for that was because of her public imagine but my gosh, you can't hate on a masterpiece. I'm just happy that this song and the album aged well.

[@luffegun]

@@Artom14 I fee like people who don’t have a bigger hit than her aren’t qualified to hate on her and that means pretty much everyone in the world! Haha Britney is fantastic. If you get any leads on the multitracks hit me up and we will get In Contact I would LOVE to do that song! The search continues!

[@Artom14]

[@funkyal888]

Love this video

[@2kstyles]

Fun fact: the higher bridge (I feel the adrenaline...) isn't Britney. It's her shadow singer Myah Marie.

[@luffegun]

Myah Marie! awesome. she nailed it!

[@2kstyles]

@@luffegun haha she did! Myah sang a lot of lead vocals on Britneys later album 'Britney Jean' and is talked about a lot in the fandom. You can definitely clearly hear it switch between Myah and Britney in some tracks. I'm not sure if it's leaked to the public but I heard a demo track called 'Tik Tik Boom' Myah and David Guetta did for Britney and they used 95% of Myahs vocals in the final album track. I find it pretty interesting If you ever make a video on the Work Bitch stems (please do) you can hear the nuances especially in the higher notes.

[@BTRMediaFan]

@@2kstyles it's true, the Alien recording session leaked a few years ago and it has an overwhelming amount of tracks labeled Myah that are used instead of Britney's vocals in the final mix. The vocal production is beyond atrocious.

[@2kstyles]

@@BTRMediaFan damn, I'd love to go through those files but that song was a baaaaaad song

[@RockVeteran]

@@2kstyles I think you're referring to one of the demos for the song "Body Ache." I'd love to hear the separate vocal tracks of the final album version... I'm still not convinced it was 100% dubbed by Myah Marie, and Myah Marie herself said on Twitter that hearing Britney Spears' vocals on that track was a dream come true. Myah Marie also confirmed the second verse was left open for Britney Spears and Anthony Preston to write. As for "Tik Tik Boom," the lead vocals are mostly Britney's. Myah sings some ad-libs on it and maybe some lead words.

[@user-pj5us2xz2p]

This one was great!

[@aguy827]

I know it says multitrack but Im 100% sure each of these stems has several tracks combined. Stems are different to a multitrack. Those effects drops sound like several layers to me.

[@luffegun]

Hello again A Guy :) Yes alot of the sessions i have are remix STEMs which is why i also have that in the title of each video so far. there are multiple tracks and some of them are stems. even though they aren't always the original dry mono files they still give a great idea of the song deconstructed into its basic elements which is the goal. just to take a look under the hood of a hit. :) thanks for watching these dude i appreciate it alot.

[@lancelyde]

where can we download this file

[@diegolira1368]

30:35 I’m pretty sure is Claude Kelly

[@maximalgeflext]

Can you do Untouchable by Girls Aloud, the album version please?

It is definitely coming up i have it but its a pro tools session so i need to convert it on my old computer.

[@BTRMediaFan]

@@luffegun there are also fully rendered Remix Stems floating around in case you want to check those out

[@freekingfreaking246]

I got a challenge for you. On apple music, you can listen to this song in both lossless (the original) and a new Dolby Atmos version that either apple or some intern at Jive records made. It's horrible though. Even though Atmos is great for a lot of her In the Zone songs, whoever did Circus really ruined it. I'm extremely attached to this song in its original form, but I would love to see it in Dolby Atmos IF someone could make the original but Atmos. Get what I'm saying? If you listen to them both you'll see they added some elements that either weren't in the original or were muted and reduced a lot of the impact of the production by putting the vocals so front and center. Think a video like this would get a huge response! We hate the Atmos for circus.

[@coordinate8929]

Please do Telephone by Gaga and Beyoncé

[@MrSwive.]

How do get access to this??

[@nelsonm_]

U talk over EVERY stem, can u please solo each track during playback, & then do commentary AFTER?

[@luffegun]

I’m sorry I really can’t. I get copyright strikes on every single video and if I play too much of the audio on its own I get the videos taken down. Sorry man. I’ve just made 67 copyright claim appeals on my last 30 videos it’s really tiring having to keep appealing them just to have content up. At the end of the day this is the best I can do. I don’t make income from this and most likely never will but I hope that you can get something from it regardless of the commentary. The videos are more geared toward the casual music fan that’s curious than the producer audience. I’ve actually had messages from people cursing me out because I’ve spoken over the top of stuff they have tried to sample from my videos for remixes and if I contribute to people misusing the property then I can get in some legal shit. Sorry again Nelson.

[@eternodisperare]

also she didn’t sing live at the tour lmao sooo all of the parts were “sung”

We got this so technically she did, we also got a lot of live moments or half live/ half lipped performances too 😂 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGStl6d6pMminK8
