Madeon - Icarus (Violet Green Remix/Edit)

[MrIhateposting]

heheh i have a really large crush on BOA after i saw this video a few months back

[MrIhateposting]

Madeons official of this song is released, although I gotta say i Do enjoy this version as well.

That being said, the ORIGINAL is released officially by madeon and will be, if not already available for purchase from iTUNES!

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@MrIhateposting Thanks for posting, yeah I bought it today. I have also opened the download link for this on Soundcloud. Madeon's final break on his official final version with that alternate sequence before the end is AMAZING.

[MrIhateposting]

@BodhisattvaBeach P.S great work with the remix and video cuts.....I'm trying to remix the NEXT song to try and capitalize like you have with this remix...great job.

[hotmunkyz5050]

Madeon's version just came out

Pretty dam sick

[onepowertrip]

iv waited forever now... when is this gona be up for purchase / download

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@onepowertrip Is Madeon's version out yet? Should be very soon, I will open the soundcloud download when it is.

[acshadow25]

isn't this EXACTLY the same as the original...?

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@acshadow25 I have been through this before, in a word, no. The breaks are the same, the intro & outro are completely different. Listen to them both again/read the previous comments/description.

[DestructiveMomoKing]

What song iz the people in the video dancing to?

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@DestructiveMomoKing 'Kartel - Pantera' (fantastic track) :)

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@BodhisattvaBeach And 'BoA - Eat You Up'

[DestructiveMomoKing]

@BodhisattvaBeach

Thank you!

[thefudgestix]

Yay I see BoA (girl dancing with skeleton sweater)<33333, nice remix btw ^^.

[mikenugo]

jizz your pants at 1.50

[jimmyhach2001]

Sick dance move man!!!!1 

[jimmyhach2001]

sick dance dude 

[godzirraza]

I'm in love with that sexy Asian girl in the beginning ...

[Funkierthanfunky]

I want it when available for download. Quality song and remix, not pissed about with the break which keeps things sweet. Good job Bod!

[brandon8905]

i like your edit brother

[dombigdjr]

The Dancing Asian Fresh Prince Of Bell Air At The Beginning, Really Makes This Video! :D

[WhoIsDeva]

How did you remix a song that's not even released? Where did you get the original from and did you even get Madeon's permission to remix his track??

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@WhoIsDeva Hi, I used the audio from the teaser, as many have pointed out this is more of an edit than a remix but I have added a substantial section of my own work at the start and end, I did not mess with the main break to much, I did not have prior permission to do but I did contact Madeon the day I released it and he is fine with the remix, also I am not offering downloads until his version is properly released. :)

[88BigJ]

@WhoIsDeva It would be called a bootleg rather than a remix....its very common, just means it couldnt be officially released unless he got permission from the original producer

[MisterAsian]

Soooo worth the wait

[Official510]

Sorry your shit's getting jacked, man. That's really rough. Maybe you can copyright the other uploaders? Hopefully you get it sorted out, it's pretty pathetic to rip someone else's art.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@Official510 Thanks, Madeon holds the copyright so I can't really pursue that. I am not that fussed about it getting re-upped just I want the credit for making this particular mix of it.I don't understand why he won't change the title, trolling for views is just pointless and that can be the only reason.

[Official510]

@BodhisattvaBeach yeah now that you mention it, it would be infringement on YOUR part if you tried to pursue copyright, my bad. Some people on the internet at just unfortunately stupid.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@Official510 He has removed it now.

[Official510]

@BodhisattvaBeach Thank God. keep up the good work, man!

[knotwrite]

Aw man this one doesn't have the real second big hit in it where he changes up lots of the chords....

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@knotwrite This came out the day after the teaser was uploaded so it was not out then. When Madeon puts the official version out I might remix it again/somebody else will.

[knotwrite]

@BodhisattvaBeach Oh yeah, I forgot the unreleased version wasn't really complete. I just heard the "official version" on some website. Stupid me didn't download the song before the link was taken down, haha. Oh well, I'd happily pay for anything Madeon puts out.

Solid remix though, for real. Nice and subtle.

[JehosephatJones]

love the video haha

[hustla509]

I can hax dwnld link PLOX?

[asianbeverage]

the girl at 1:50 is so hot lol

[halogamingcommunity]

love the filter build ups

[SlipUp911]

Lo at 2:33 , the girl running round the corner

[irritatedAssassin616]

I am addicted to this mix.

[irritatedAssassin616]

whats the original video for the New Jack Swing brothers?

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@irritatedAssassin616 'Kartel - Pantera' :)

[KoKesHKe]

The most epic part 2:15 - 2:50

[itsAoE]

an amazing video to go along with an amazing remix of an amazing song, keep it up man!

[switchitdownn]

Not hatting but this didn't sound like a remix at all :S ....props to madeon.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@switchitdownn The main break was not really touched, just added some extra subtleties. The Intro and when it repeats towards the end are completely new though and are not in the original.

[MrFlyboygully]

@switchitdownn a remix in the producing world docent Constitution of remix the whole track it could be remixed as far as add on or simple changes a drop change break or such but i understand what you mean when people think remix they think fully change the song

[switchitdownn]

@MrFlyboygully I produce music ... i would call this a edit rather than a remix.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

Thank you everybody! :)

[iateurdad]

the first korean girl looks a lot like a friend of mine O.0

[razumoura]

SHM brought me here!

[Kororocks12]

Oooh la la Madeon es genial! Tres, tres BIEN!

[sixpack9901]

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanx!­

[BigToezCA]

At 3:20 and onward, those clips are from BoA's music video "Eat You Up".

[mllecoke]

j'adore comme tous les sons de Madeon <3

[TheDaftalex]

HAHAHAHAHAHA 1:55 she's hot but she looks retarded as fuck

[TheDaftalex]

The red shirt girl is so hot!!!

[Redemptioner123]

Looks like someone is a fan of K-pop (the dancers) :D

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@Redemptioner123 Correctomundo, love a bit of Kpop :)

[maxmax604]

@Redemptioner123 the dancers are japanese you fool. You are white aint ya

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@maxmax604 The first set of dancers are Japanese & BoA is Korean, keep it nice guys :).

[KATSUP123]

Good job! Thank you bro!!!

[Sneakydud2]

2:34, you can see the woman runnning

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@Sneakydud2 Good eyes!, I edited the video and failed to notice that!

[Sneakydud2]

@BodhisattvaBeach not really , when you've been repeating it for pleasure purposes you'll eventually see some mistakes.

[SwagaNuts]

Amazing.

[gbabis]

on repeat since you uploaded it:D

[SamMillerLive]

OMG!! This is the THIRD time I've had to play this because the dancers are TOO DISTRACTING! I keep forgetting the music!!!

[DJustice91]

The high-pass filters in some spots seem completely arbitrary. Good thing Madeon is so epic and magical that the song still kicks fucking ass.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@DJustice91 The one used at the end was thrown in just to sync with the video/radio dial, the one before that (fades really high) to show the switch from madeon's original back into my remixed parts. You are right though the one mid song was kinda out of place. The first one was used to sync with the fourth dancer slightly stumbling after that breakdance move.

[DJustice91]

@BodhisattvaBeach For sure man. I didn't mean to give the wrong impression, I LOVE this remix. I've been listening to it non-stop. Really solid job. I'm so psyched for Madeon to actually put out an EP or an album.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@DJustice91 Totally, I got where you were coming from. Just thought I would explain the reasons. Yeah I'm really looking forward to his first proper release. I am ready to throw my money at him at this point.

[DJH1N1]

this would be good in a mix.... or a minimix.. whatever..

the ending is better than the first part and yeah some things are off beat

[Syndicat3]

Weird high pass filters in weird place.. no like.

[RoboticFishINC]

>"So many haters"

>2 dislikes

[WarriYoMusic]

Nice! :) check out my version :)

[gadgetine007]

I put this on my iPod the second I heard it :)

[vtkcar]

good work!

[TheJurgenkalis]

Madeon another planet.

[dukerich]

3:23 epic audio + video

[HeroBryan700]

So beautiful ... I love that guy !

[blueandmax]

enjoyed this

[hot5aucaiche]

niiice work !!

[crazyasskickdude]

Dancing is fucking boss

[TheDustyAlex]

Been watching this every day since it came out. I love this song (too much) haha

Madeon is the future.

[j3nNj3nNy]

So many haters hating o-o'

I see that you did you own remix of the video clip, and I like it :) Keep up the good work; haters are gonna hate, dont mind em~

+1 like

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@j3nNj3nNy Thanks :)

[rustyj107]

2:05 phwoar!!! :-P

[vikingdw1]

Awesome remix/edit whatever you want to call it, it goes hard and is a great homage to the original and clearly differs from it. A remix can be a massive change from the original track or just a subtle overhaul. The stats speak for themselves on this :). keep up the good work.

[OfficialRedux]

this isnt  a remix -.-

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@OfficialRedux So is it the original?....no, therefore it is a remix. Back to school for you.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@loges0011 Keep telling yourself that, you are right though I did edit remix the teaser. Oh what is that in your inbox? A screen shot of Madeon's message in soundcloud - fail. Haters are so funny.

[OfficialRedux]

@BodhisattvaBeach its a looped original, is it not? He probably youtube-mp3 the teaser trailer, looped it. Do you know there is something called an "edit" or an "extended mix"? back to school for you, sir.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@OfficialRedux Adding my own intro beat, a vocal sample from another song, my own synth, my own filter and EQ work makes this a remix in my book. It is not the teaser simply looped. An edit would mean everything came from the original track and was just rearranged, no? No need to get caught up in all that. If people like it that is all that matters if not, no problem. Thanks for the comment.

[OfficialRedux]

@BodhisattvaBeach OOH! Its you who edited it? Its not a remix. You can even hear the volume dip towards of the loop at 2:51. You just straight up looped it. Like....you just fucking looped the ripped youtube video twice over! This is a fucking EDIT

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@OfficialRedux Also, 2:51. That is called a high pass filter and I used it on purpose, it's not in the original. I used it through out the track on purpose. There is a reason the genre is often called 'French Filter' it is a massive part of the sound. Look up high pass filter production methods. It's ok we all need to learn somewhere.

[OfficialRedux]

@BodhisattvaBeach Im a producer I know what that means...I will end this argument because I made a few false assumptions, sorry.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@OfficialRedux Ok, just remember to be humble and ask questions before you mout off. I admit my reation to your 1st comment was a bit harsh but it was meant for the other guy's daft comment. I would also just point out creating a whole new section for a song over a synth sample and then matching the eq/mix/tone to the original break is one of the hardest things to do in production.

[OfficialRedux]

@BodhisattvaBeach sure, I agree. Im actually working on a remix myself, im sensing how tough it is :P

[JuanitoViento]

AMAZING REMIX!

[chernbabychernn]

pay close attention to the music at 2:06. Ridiculous.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@chernbabychernn Based the whole video on that one move :)

[nakaji1083]

DANG THE ASIAN CHICK HAS SKILLZ

[him8913]

Brilliant. Thank you so much for making this!! Will definitely be dropping this at gigs :)

[TheNarkarox]

whos that chick? starts at 1:50 she killed it!!! u got anymore dance vids of he?

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@TheNarkarox I don't know her name, but search for 'Kartell - Pantera, New Jack Swing' and you will see the original that I sped up for this (another great slow French House track i remixed). Not sure if they are called the Tokyo All Stars or New jack Swing Brothers or both. I think the New Jack Swing Bros. are the guys with the early 90's high top hair. If you find any more vids with her drop me a link, she has serious talent.

[TheNarkarox]

SICK!

[maniac55555]

I love how the video fits so well with the music

[spartanjohn1178]

Very well done. This is gonna get big soon. Keep up the good work man.

[itsmadswag]

can't wait to see this blow up like pop culture

[treyn10]

Mother Of God.

[rupek1995]

Holy buttsex THIS IS AWESOME.

I think it sounds like something that Madeon would release. :)

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[BiografMedDem]

Do you have the original or did you just extend the preview?

[BiografMedDem]

@BiografMedDem Oh i saw your comment. Sorry.

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@BiografMedDem Info in description :)

[BodhisattvaBeach]

Thanks, true, I did consider waiting until it was released. Still, his version is no doubt longer and will have far more to it. Just think of mine as a pimped/extended version of the teaser. If I did not do it first somebody else would have I guess. Also after figuring out the sample it was a done deal. Haha even if that is just the end of his original that is one hell of an ending!

[rmsprowler]

@BodhisattvaBeach when is madeon's song getting released?

[BodhisattvaBeach]

@rmsprowler I have no idea, hopefully soon. i think he is putting a EP or LP out?

[rmsprowler]

@BodhisattvaBeach not sure. all i can say is that this may be the best track he's put out yet. this kid has so much more talent than daft punk and all those guys by far.

[no0kieNRW]

much better than i expected..but i think you should have let madeon release the full track first and then do a remix..and not a copy of how the song could possibly be at the end... :/
