Remake of the song "Fitter Happier" by Radiohead with the use of several sound design techniques, narrative structure and remixing techniques.
 
  
Unborn Chicken voices is a remake of the song "Fitter Happier" by Radiohead. It's more of a remake, rather than a remix, since the original piece only involves vocals, no any instruments.

In this project, I did a remake of the son Nightcall by French producer/dj Kavinsky. I started with listening to song many times and broke it into sections such as bass, arpeggiator, chorus and drums. Once I got similiar sounds for these sections, I did my own editing on these sections. Beside these, I added few more sections to make the remake my unique own way. At the end, I downloaded an acapella version of this song from youtube and edites so that it fits the song. (the original version was pretty terrbile, but it was the only vocal material that I could found, so tried to make best out of it). Once the stems were completed, I worked on the automation of the channels and added the effects.
  
The song structured as intro, lay off , main part and the ending. Since the lyrics bring criticism of the corruption of human life, the common narrative structures of modern day songs and repetition of sections are avoided.
 
  
The song is a satiric piece which brings criticism to the daily life of an ordinary human being, new social norms and changing values of human life.  In this manner, to express the dullness of todays ordinary human life, there is a constant use of vocal segments and instrumental parts through out the song.

The piece ends with a sudden zap effect which represents the  ending the constant thinking about what we are doing with are life,which people wants us to do, and an irritating alarm voice that represents the beginning of another ordinary work day.

Final Composition for Electronic Music Composition

Once I got similiar sounds for these sections, I did my own editing on these sections. Beside these, I added few more sections to make the remake my unique own way.
