Deadmau5 - Strobe (Evan Duffy Piano Cover)

Strobe
by Deadmau5
Now available on iTunes: itunes.apple.c...
-------------------------
Hey everyone,
So this track was by far the most requested in the history of my channel thus far. To me, it's a masterpiece of electronic music, and I truly wanted to do it justice. I hope I have. In this arrangement I tried to stay true to the original piece while also adding some of my own flair to it. I think the end result is a nice balance of transcription/arrangement. Also, the rhythmic content in this thing is ridiculous... such great writing. I hope you enjoy :)

This version really shows the depth of Deadmau5's melodies, he is more than just a DJ. Great performance by Evan!

[@flexgameplay]

Calling the guy who produced the org track a dj, and calling a guy who plays it back the "talentful der guy" lol

[@electricoceangames7124]

Well to be fair, deadmau5 is a producer. As far as EDM production goes, there are many tools like arpeggiators, randomizers, delays, etc that can really aid in the creation of a track. So is deadmau5 more than just a DJ? Yes, but he's no composer either. He has an artistic mind and a great set of ears, but in this case that mainly aids in the mixing/mastering process, moreso than the creative process. He uses a chain of analog modular synthesis, as well as a chain of DAW tools to create.

[@Miguel-ke5cq]

+Electric Ocean Games yeah keep repeating that to yourself . Good luck. No matter what tools and DAWs you use, armony is armony. It cant be faked, and if you know how to use it, then my friend you are a composer.

Strobe is actually one of the most beautiful songs ever created, It's the perfect mix of warm and calm with a very slow build up.

[@dezdoes1921]

My husband and I, on our first camping trip, sat up at night in front of embers and watching the stars in Algonquin park, we'd smoked a bowl. He introduced me to this song for the first time. I sat there for what felt like forever on the rollercoaster that is this song, one earphone in my ear and the other in his - staring at the brilliant, unclouded majesty of space. I still feel it in my stomach when I listen.

[@masopaso3073]

Hey, Evan. I first saw your video back in 2013 whe I was obssessed with the original song. Those were such different times. So much has changed since then. My parents used to have a piano at home and I remember listening to your cover for hours straight and trying to reproduce it. I even recorded my own (very poor) version of it. I moved out, my parents and I don't see or speak in a long, long time, and I never had the chance to play the piano again untill this year when I'm finally buying my own. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that after all these years, here I am again. Somehow, you cover has inspired me in ways I can't even explain and whenever I want to remember happier days I listen to your version of Strobe and it helps me get better :)

Life is hard and unfair.. dont know how I keep going.. Small things that give me hope is the beauty that lies within each of us if only we can be brave enough to choose. Thank you Evan.

The first time I heard Strobe was on the for lack of a better name album. I was in bed about 11pm at night, drifting off to sleep. Then the greatest dance song of all time kicked in. That drop, just dropped and I lost my shit. I listened to it like 10 times. What a song, a total masterpiece. And I absolutely love this version, found it ten years ago and I always come back.

[@Comeoutwithyourhandsup]

I honestly think that this “video” has had more impact on me than anything else ive ever seen, and i think that no one has been effected as much as me by this. Ive been listening to this consistently for 8years, I literally learned to play piano because of this video. Ive been through 8 states and now hawaii, 8 years, 4 jobs, highschool, college, 4 girlfriends, and a marriage with this song always in the front of my head. Evan Duffy, i want you to know that what you did here was not just make a few bucks or learn a cool song, but changed my life. @evanduffy

i always thought that electronic and classical music have much more things in common than most of the people may think

[@RandyAbbassi]

+federico giordano electronic music requires a very high skill level to actually communicate music. otherwise its just some mediocre beat leading to an easy to make "dope" beat drop. same goes to classical music, it requires a high skill level to make and it requires a high skill level of understanding to actually appreciate it!

[@springboxlp1370]

+Randy Abbassi easy to make drop, haha yeah maybe if you use presets xD

Deadmau5 Strobe is lowkey one of the most beautiful pieces about love, how it provides you with undertones of joy and happiness as you progress, constantly wanting more than what is given but you must force a sense of appreciation, taking it for granted might choke the relationship ruining the journey that was paved for you, to pace and to appreciate and to love what is in front of you, allowing you to flourish into something more after teetering over the edge of an almost unbearable wait. The strobing rhythm of ones breathing and heartbeat, steady and consistent, with the one.

If he played on a grand. It would've sounded better but you'll need a really good grand and a kickass microphone for it to sound as good as aux input from the electric piano.

2020, april. I'm crying. Thank you, Evan

[@odderlendp-johnsen9345]

I always feel strobe is matching my life story. The start is perfectly telling the sad, violent and abused time of my life. Then the raging addiction to every drug i could find and all the times i almost died of OD or suicide. Then when it calms in the middle i found out i could get a better life, i find recovery, i work hard with myself, i meet some humps amd bumps but still on the path of recovery. And then now! Today! Kids, girlfriend, dogs and cats AND work to go to. Friends who love me! Life is smiling, life is beautifull and i love living, breathing and waking up in the morning❤

I still come back to this video everyone I need to relax or get lost in this amazing song. Gives me goosebumps every time.

[@fallenslave6684]

[@alexsmith3846]

I remember first hearing this song. I cried. Literally 0500 waiting to do my job. Thinking of myself. Then wanting to just melt all of my anxiety and anger away with tones. Then I felt like I could do so much on that day.

Peaceful. One wise man said "Music is what feelings sound like", there are songs what makes you feel happy, energetic, relaxed etc.. This song makes me feel that we still have hope and everything will be ok. I don't usually comment anything on KZbin, but I wanted to share this..

[@mrsluigi9478]

This piece of music might actually be timeless. Imagine if someone 500 years ago played this, what would the towns reaction be? What would for example Mozart’s reaction be? This is just incredible

[@ChrisJohnson-ze5nm]

Might be? Strobe is absolutely timeless, which is unheard of for music theses days.

[@galex2000]

I imagine Mozart would be mesmerized hearing this :)

[@kamacazi8]

@@galex2000 hahahahaaaaa

[@leparraindufromage366]

I think Mozart might not have liked it that much because of the heavy use of pure fifths / power chords in the left hand and no modulation of the harmonic key, that wasn't seen as very desirable in that time (for us it's very standard). But he'd probably find it very interesting. I think later composers (maybe Bartok, Satie, Ravel, Debussy) would appreciate it though, they might have even written variations on it
