【AREIA REMIX 031】 SNSD (소녀시대) - Run Devil Run (런 데빌 런)

It's funny how this song is out for so long and almost nobody bothers remixing it (yes Robotaki did and it sounds absolutely sweet!). Then Bang! comes and everybody remixed it within a couple of days. You maybe wondering why, but well this is not about remixers loving Afterschool more than SNSD. It's rather down to technical stuff.

The first thing is there is no instrumental out for this song and therefore obtaining clean vocals is nearly impossible making it harder to remix as you have all those background sounds that ruin your remix. But that's not the only problem with it; besides a lot of other remixes out there are done over the original songs. The special case with this song is that it uses a different beat rhythm than most pop songs out there, making everything that's put on it sound off-beat. As far as I know, there are only a handful of kpop remixers (recently joined by one more I think) that can do so at a high-level and my respect goes to them as this is what defines music composition for me - creating new sounds and melodies. The others have my appreciation of course as even mashup remixing requires some kind of effort as well.

Now on to the remix, when I've released the teaser I was really excited about the electro bass and lead but after that things have changed. I didn't feel like adding anything to it and the project went really back. In a few desperate tries in random times, I've managed to complete the sequence by creating the rest of the melodies but the feeling was already off. So I'm sad to say that I'm not satisfied with this remix. I know I can do much better than that. The reason I release it like this is because I don't see anything more I can do about it, except starting a complete new remix of it. But that would disappoint everybody that expected what they've seen in the teaser. In the past there were remixes that I didn't like but they received very good comments and people liked them, so I'm trying my luck here.

Technically the remix is quite advanced, with stereo bassilines and a solid mastering process, so I wouldn't say it's unfinished. Even the melodies played on it are quite solid and the song feels full at most times. But... I don't feel something special about it.

Perhaps I'm wrong since I've listened to it so many times that I don't appreciate the differences from the original anymore. I hope you do!

[dtrez09]

So I'm watching Taeyeon singing away with Sunny and Hyoyeon either side of her and I'm thinking "here it comes! here it comes!" and then BAM Sunny rapping, Hyoyeon rapping, Sunny rapping, Hyoyeon again, then Taeyon does her little bit and then SooYoung is there and this remix is so amaaaazing.
