Description: 
I created many different stems/variations but here are a couple examples.  In the groove change stem, I remade two drum sections in two different bridges in the song creating variety throughout.  In the "Vocals, Bass and Harmony" and the "No Drums" stem you get a better idea of what the vocals are like without the many percussion parts.  Lastly in the No vocals stem you can hear the instrumental by itself to hear the changes I made to the original.  

 

Original Bridge:

Sound Design:


For my two added design elements, I added a live recorded whistle ("Live") and a transitional drop at a pivotal point in the song ("Sounds").

My Finished Product

When originally taking on this song, my goal was to make the overall feel a little more hazy, a little less harsh and most of all, keep the live feel of the instruments and vocals.  I'm happy with the end result and it was interesting to make the variations given above! Hope you Enjoy
