If Sleep Token's "DYWTYLM" was Heavy - Metal Cover by Beyond Our Eyes

This is my djent / metal cover of ‪@Sleep-Token‬'s "DYWTYLM" using vocals from the masked frontman himself!
To say "Take Me Back to Eden" was a banger of an album would be an understatement, and this is one song that stood out to me from the rest. At first I thought it was a strange sudden shift compared to the other songs, but at the same time part of the reason I love these guys is cause of the diversity they bring. And boy I played this song on repeat probably a hundred times! No.101 is when I stopped and said "wait... what would this sound like if it was super heavy?" - that's when I got to work!
Hope you guys enjoy this re-imagining of the song! Of course, the vocals are acapella from the original song - I do not own any rights to said acapella, lyrics, or original composition by Sleep Token.

I like how these instrumentals kinda feel a bit like Spiritbox so it's like the collab we've all been wanting for years

Well to be honest, I was prepared not to like this, but I was surprised. Like another commenter said, this version really respects the original. It doesn't just make it heavier, it adds other genres to the mix as well. Well done.

THIS! So many fan-made recreations miss the mark, especially when making a heavier version. It's often just the vocals layered over metal instrumentals. This one introduced additional pop elements that weren't in the original, but bridged the difference in a way that preserved the soul of the original.

I love the fact that the style of the band wasn’t lost on the process… This version could easily be a version of Sleep Token by itself… This sounds like the band, not a simple cover version. I freaking love it… ❤❤❤ Not mention the respect of the pop style of this song… man, what a good job

Lyrics: Do you roll with the waves? Or do you duck into deep blue safety? Is it always the same? Do you wish that you loved me? Do you pull at the chains? Or do you push into constant aching? Each and every day Do you wish that you loved me? Is there something you give That you will never receive in return? Do you know what it is? Do you wish that you loved me? And are you trying to live Like everything is a lesson to learn? Can you ever forgive (yourself)? Do you wish that you loved me? And my reflection just won't smile back at me like I know it should And I would turn into a stranger in an instant if I could And there is something eating me alive, I don't know what it is Maybe not that you conceal your feelings, they just don't exist Do you ever believe That we can turn into different people? It's getting harder to be (myself) Do you wish that you loved me? Could we ever release? Is it better to just not feel? Can we hit delete? Do you wish that you loved me? And it's been so long that I'm forgetting what it feels like But I'd rather not remind myself and leave it all behind And I've tried so hard to fix it all, but nothing seems to help But I cannot hope to give you what I cannot give myself Do you wish that you loved me? (Smile back) Do you wish that you loved me? (At me) Do you wish that you loved me? Oh, whoa Do you wish that you loved me? (Please) Do you wish that you loved me? (Smile back) Do you wish that you loved me? (At me) Do you wish that you loved me? Oh, whoa Do you wish that you loved me?

I'm reaaaally impressed with what you've done with SSD 5 kit - I'm assuming it's the free one? Care to share some mix tips or process?

@BeyondOurEyes 9 ай бұрын

Thank you! It is SSD 5.5 but the paid version, on this song I’ve mixed 2 samples together for both snare and kick for a thick punchy sound. I keep routing minimal for the most part and send direct and room mics to the same channel for kick, snare, toms, hihat, and cymbals. Mixing wise I like to use JST clip for gain staging, JST EQ, standard compressor, add saturation with Magma BB Tubes, JST Transify to shape transients occasionally. Then on the bus I use a drum bus compressor, more saturation, maybe a touch of mild EQ. Maybe I’ll do a vid on my mixes sometime soon!

Not a cover. Definitely a remix. Honestly, I'm bamboozled in a bad way. I opened this expecting a COVER - which usually implies new vocals and new instrumentalization. This has neither? This is just a guitar remix. It's not bad, but it does feel almost disrespectful to the original artist. Even Content ID recognizes this as Sleep Token.

@BeyondOurEyes 8 ай бұрын

I respect if you don’t like it man, but you’re saying remixes are disrespectful? Whatever you wanna call it, I made this out of love for the song / artist and believe it or not I only sampled the vocals, everything else I put a lot of work into creating from scratch. I don’t see anything disrespectful about that? Maybe if I had it titled the video “How Sleep Token should’ve done DYWTYLM” - now THAT would be insulting.
