Gregorian Chant - "Dies Irae" remix

I had the idea to create this track, which mixes a recording of the Gregorian chant, "Dies Irae," (or, "Day of Wrath") with a hip hop beat. The lyrics of the chant can be found online and I reccommend you read the translation- it is a very powerful hymn about Judgment Day and the Second Coming. An original plain chant version can be found in my videos.

(beat is sampled from ODB's "Fire")

This is awesome. I happen to be Roman Catholic and I think it's great to see new and creative ways of presenting these sacred chants for a new generation to appreciate. Vielen Dank.

I love Gregorian Chant and I believe one shouldn't messed with heavenly chants.

Awesome, absolutely awesome.

Okay why the hell is everyone arguing about this? It's not like Jesus said Gregorian Chants are holy. You all are pathetic and need to learn that it's just a way of Christian monks showing faith. Remixing this has nothing to do with going against God. God could care less about music.

This sounds beautiful, everyone who is mad is too conservative.

[h0ah0ah0ah0ah0a]

fuck you and everyone who thinks its a good idea to "remix" chant. all meditative qualities of the infra-sonic sound are lost. how are you supposed to achieve transcendence through prayer and meditation with that uninspired beat constantly flicking you in the ears? you ugly dumb bastard. i hope someone kicks your ass. I hope god's real and you suffer horribly in the rapture and in hell for a thousand million years.
