about

Cover of Arctic Monkeys - Arabella:
Of all of my eclectic influences, rock has sparsely been one of them so this might seem like a bit of an unusual choice of song for me to cover. This song was part of an iconic era in many of our teenagehoods, getting our first taste of strongbow-dark-fruits-flavoured-freedom at Reading festival. I wanted to cover it after listening to the lyrics and realising how tender and romantic they are, in comparison to the aggressive instrumentation. My original plan was to make the instrumental match the lyrics in terms of tone and sweetness, and I think I vaguely managed that… for about 30 seconds.

After embracing the direction the cover was taking itself, I had a lot of fun playing around with more aggressive vocal processing, as well as choral sections of layered harmonies - until I ended up with almost 40 vocal tracks in the final mix (one of which is my cat - see if you can find it ;) ). Anyways I feel like I pushed myself with this track, playing with some faster rhythms and different effects and I almost lost my mind trying to sort through everything I’d thrown at it, but I’m pretty happy with the result and I hope you guys like it too!
