I think both did a praise-worthy job. Nathan's song had tremendous dynamics and alex sounded groovy and foot tapping.

Alex! Both did a great job but I love the energy and use of vocal effects in Alex's Mix! 🏆

[@maximeblais2032]

Honestly, two different vibes, a wonderful video, two amazing producers and teachers…very hard to pick a winner. Alex a hit on the dance floor, Nathan a more original use of the vocal and wonderful ending. Congrats to you both …. Give us more !!!

I’m a Rome Student but after listening to both. They were Absolutely outstanding. To be honest it was hell of a hard decision. But I got to give it to Nathan. For the end was the piano. 🖤

Nathan's ending is so beautiful. Alex's chorus is more of my type, maybe because of the tempo. both are great, how about you guys make a version where you both work on it? I wonder how that would sound 😍

Nathan's is such a brilliant piece musically and sonically. Alex's production would definitely sell and appeal to the mass music market more. Overall brilliant production from both of you guys!

[@A-Z-U-R-E]

Notice how when they both are listening to the vocal before the challenge starts, they nod their head to the tempo in synchronization. And there’s no drums or anything. As a music producer you start to do these things without thinking. It’s honestly amazing.

[@starrio713]

Love Alex's version but have to say Nathan's idea has put this song into a really dreamy and captivating story!

[@valainaschael1286]

Both were great, but I definitely LOVED the ending of yours Nathan. Yours wins for me!

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Thanks so much!

[@JamesBushPrayerRequest]

Nathan: I love it when you have these challenges! It gives me two production perspectives to learn from. It was so cool that you worked with Alex Rome, (who I started following at the beginning of the year) I like both compositions, but I lean toward my sensei (NJL) as a PA student. But I did pick up a couple of nice tips from Alex. More, more more, please!

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Love it, James! Thanks for that and I think it's so cool to share the ideas from two different producer and it is exciting to make it happen!!

[@NonnyStrikes]

The perspective differences. That's what makes this video great. I'll admit the aggressive approach Alex took and the build up... wins my heart over ha. She's got that "I wanna release the stress" vibe. And what better than to be out on the dance floor jammin' to this banger!

[@fchild221]

Both versions were fire but being a more traditional musician I connected with James version because of his harmony choices. I liked the chords and bass line under the melody.

[@avareldsyd]

Man sick I've always loved edm and edm had the up hand and it really showed the expression of the lyrics

Nathan nailed it , the rhythm programmed by Nathan definitely stands out and the ending is the big difference as Nathan adds to the feel of the words whereas Alex's one goes to a party type ......

Appreciate this! Good thoughts and good ears

[@kee1000]

I love how much you both liked playing back what you had produced, rocking out to your own vibes! Thanks for another banging video and tons of inspo Nathan and Alex!

Heck yeah! If you don't love what you do then what's the point? Even when I was a nooby I got excited to hear it back even when it sounded bad haha!!

[@MoeeTurbin]

I love that they’re not hating each other they’re just as happy for each other as they are for themselves.

[@MiketheNerdRanger]

While Nathan's production had more advanced musical direction and sound design, I simply can't get enough of Alex's version. Simple though it may be, it's so catchy and it just makes you dance.

Liked both, especially Nathan's ending, but overall I think Alex wins🙏

This is super difficult to choose - both have incredible elements and ideas to draw the listener in… my heart is embedded in pop and Nathan won my soul on this, it doesn’t take away how incredible Alex’s version is. Nathan for this one 🙏

Appreciate the thought you put into this!

Alex's one is good to listen when you're bored. It's filled with energy. And Nathan's one is very good for stressful situations for stress relief.

[@Pauluz_The_Web_Gnome]

Hi Great content! I find Alex's chord progression more pleasant to listen to, more predictable but easier on the ears..I loved the sfx's from you more....Great job both of you! Well done..really enjoyed listening to you 2 and your explanations about creating those different style versions!

[@kamal_vaasan]

Nathan, you are an inspiration man!! Every single time when I watch the production video of yours, it apparently imparts production ideas which I would have been lacking for a very long time. These are some unforgettable pieces of help. Kudos to you.

[@TomPaladin]

Been a fan and learned a lot watching Alex's videos. And I am pretty sure Alex did a great job on this even if the vocals or more perfect for pop. He could have put a riser before the vocal chops so the anticipation is still there. But still, one vote for Alex!

[@chilionline2391]

These are my two favourite youtube producers! so this is crazy to see them working together!

[@kendysaintilaire5005]

I luv u both. I learned a lot from you. It’s hard to chose a winner. The philosophy behind Nathan’s composition is amazing. Nathan🏆

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

🙌🏻 Alex nailed it and I appreciate this comment. So cool

[@ayushhande]

I'm more of an EDM listener and Alex did it very great.... But Nathan your song was just out of blue ...like legit i don't often listen to pop songs but you genereated interest in me about pop songs really man both songs are different unique and special in their own way..Loved it❣

[@nikokotoulas]

some of the percussion on Nathan's song was really thought out and sounded great, including the piano ending which i'm always a supporter of :) Rome though I do love slap house and the vocal chop in your drop (and the presets from your pack which are fire). Both were awesome tracks I'm happy this happened!

[@BaraNadaMusic]

"presets from pack which are fire" where should i find?

[@LeChapeauMusic]

it's that guy who promises to make our songs sound professional just by adding his melodies to them. melodies that have been used by everyone who bought his pack...

[@nikokotoulas]

​@@LeChapeauMusic I'll be in Thessaloniki in a few weeks if you want to talk about this. People have sampled melodies for years and years and years. Beethoven even sampled Mozarts. You can change around MIDI to if it gives a starting point yes it will make your tracks sound more pressional.

[@LeChapeauMusic]

@@nikokotoulas man you seem like a stalker 🤣🤣🤣 yeah I see what you're saying I just find it funny that people make so much money by selling their musical ideas to some poor fellas who struggle to come up with their own

[@nikokotoulas]

@@LeChapeauMusic hahahaha I liked your stuff :) half the customers aren't beginners. I put a lot a lot of work into these so they include a lot of new progression, melodic ideas etc. Some people are vocalists, guitarists, drummers etc. so it's like playing in a band. When you just drag and drop and don't make it your own, it can def be not as good.

[@parvlucky]

awesome man...🔥🔥

[@TheSoundChronicles]

Perfect transitions between chord progressions between you too. Nathan's outro was awesome.

[@skywolf1036]

This was Super fun! I am a huge fan of both of y'all and actually watch both of your channels! Agh! its so hard! I like them both so much! I really like the way Alex built up the chorus and added the choppy vocals and the bending bass, but I really liked the story you get with Nathans, and I loved how Nathan right before the dreamy part, he went up with his Chords and added a diminished chord!! great job both of you!! I've done a producer battle once and it was super fun!! Would totally love to do one with @Nathan James Larson and @Alex Rome!!!

[@KalsonJang]

Both were great! My vote goes to Alex because it's the genre I prefer!

[@richardlatham3771]

ok so subscribed to both of you guys, i love both generes and loved the build of Alex's version but dug the closing of Nathan's peice. i dont like to choose but im kinda more towards Nathan as i loved the ending and im kinda into cinematics and movie scoring so that was the only decision breaker. well done to both of you. Richo

[@md_river]

Woooooowwww!!! Both sounded great…But Alex nailed it for me with the tempo and snare!!

[@Cyclone1335]

Great tracks both! Also just wanted to say, Nathan, I appreciate the exactness and positivity of your vocabulary. Instead of saying "good bass" or "I like that", you'll say stuff like "growly bass" or "drippy orchestral". Makes for more engaging and interesting commentary. Improves my vocab as well. Thanks!

[@ronwalczak7120]

Really loved the creative concepts from both of you Amazing

[@gaetanguerin1734]

Both are very good and unique. My favorite= Alex ! As I'm Dj for more than 30 years I like the ''catchy'' harmony and the drop is amazing...Please don't stop making music!

[@tonette_grace]

As an EDM lover, I love Alex's more because the sequence was so good. From subtle, until it built up, to finally give us the drop we needed with the oh-so-brilliant vocal chops~

[@MelNikkMusic]

Both versions are excellent! I just found this channel and immediately subscribed! Quality content, keep going!🔥🔥🔥

[@arewedreaming100]

Both of my favorites in one video? Omg yes, Please do more! Saving this to my watch later playlist NOW lol love you guys!

[@Nova122]

As an EDM fan I prefer Alex version But Nathan's track was also good, I really loved the piano ending(Like who wouldn't?) Both producers were good in their respective genres But since I love EDM more than Pop I choose Alex (Just a personal opinion) I love Alex's build up, the vocal chop was perfect, and the drop was incredible I really learnt some stuffs in this video I'm gonna subscribe to Alex (and Nathan too ;D )

[@surya_murmu]

Wow! @Nathan did it more to feel'in (a lot of variations, travelling through different vibes) however, I'm more in love with @Alex's version cause this literally threw me out of my bed and I started to jump. Obviously it's pumped up EDM! Bravo!! 👏 Could you guys please share the full songs from both of you? Thanks!

[@fl4wlessbeatz638]

[@suvamsarkar8335]

Alex's version was sick ! But the way his track started, that could literally be a SLAP HOUSE banger ! Like he could pitch down the vocal seven semitones lower & then you know simple slap house elements & boom !

[@grega620]

I really loved this epic event. Nathan often emphasizes the importance of contrast within a song to keep the listener engaged. Here's a clear example of how contrast between Alex's and Nathan's styles engages up-and-coming produces to fire up the imagination re. arrangement possibilities! I'm in agreement with many folk here - both are winners!
