00:00So in a moment, we're gonna play you a song
00:07This is definitely system of adapt
00:10And it's your challenge to reimagine it to change chords rhythms just picturing like Lord of the Rings
00:24No, no, no
00:27Why is it it's just so weird
00:30I'm struggling with that
00:33We need to think of ourselves as a tube of toothpaste
00:37Whoa
00:40Then did you eat the brownies upstairs?
00:45Okay, so today we are at Muzora studio your one stop for music education
00:51Online and we have Fionn here today, which is made up of Brianne and Alanna
00:56Hello ladies
00:58Hello
00:58And we have Matt on guitar and Art on drums and Ben on keys
01:03How would you describe your musical influence pop rock?
01:08Pop rock a bit of folk and a bit yeah a bit of folk a dash of folk
01:13Tell me what your band name means
01:15Fionn it's our last name Finn in Irish
01:18Beautiful all right so in a moment we're gonna play you a song and it's going to be your challenge to reimagine it as a pop rock track
01:26You're gonna have complete creative freedom to change chords rhythms tempos anything you want to make it uniquely yours
01:33The more creative the better sounds good we're ready up for the challenge
01:42No way it's toxicity
01:44Who?
01:46System of a down
01:47Oh the oh it is
01:52I wore the wrong boots again
01:55Oh my goodness straight into drop D I think
02:03I've never heard this song in my life
02:05Me neither
02:07Okay, it's really cool though
02:15It sounds a bit Celtic in this play
02:16Yeah it does actually
02:17Yeah it does
02:26Okay I have heard this I have heard this
02:30This is definitely System of a Down
02:31Yeah
02:31Yeah
02:50It's like a fucking jig from hell
02:55Whoa
02:56Whoa
03:02Oh my gosh
03:04Okay
03:06I had to throw something pretty crazy at you
03:08Wow okay
03:09I'm gonna need to look up some lyrics
03:11There's a lot of interesting opportunities for for harmony so I think we're gonna play around with that a bit
03:16Well because this kind of has a bit of a Celtic feel to it in ways
03:21We're very familiar with Celtic music and we can kind of run with that a little bit
03:25System of a Down are like Armenian American and I'm pretty sure they mix like Armenian folk music into like their like American rock
03:33So it's cool
03:34It's not a million miles off what yous do
03:36The female System of a Down over here
03:38Like ladies and gentlemen
03:39Sisters of a
03:40Sisters of a
03:43Alright we'll get you some lyrics and we'll give you another listen through if that would be helpful
03:47That'd be great
03:47Okay
03:48Now somewhere between the sacred silence
03:52Silence and sleep
03:54Somewhere between the sacred silence and sleep
04:00Disorder
04:01Disorder
04:02Disorder
04:03Disorder
04:04Disorder
04:06Maybe we could try and go like soft and sad instead of angry
04:11Maybe we could do soft and sad for the first part of the song and then like build it up to anger at the end
04:15So by the time we get to the then I became the sun
04:19I kind of want to go hard there
04:22I'm not gonna lie
04:23I think that's my favorite part
04:24If there's any place to go hard it's the part where you become the sun so the literal sun
04:29I do like the contrast between like the like
04:33And then like
04:36You know
04:36It'd be maybe cool if I played my acoustic
04:38Bring like a bit of our folk side into it
04:40Ah
04:46I'm trying to get the the groove again
04:48I'd say
04:56If we lean into that vibe you can pull out your mallets and everything you do like
05:01Like just even like open snare like uh
05:04Oh
05:06I love that
05:07Yeah, that's good
05:08There's something like that in general vibe
05:19You're doing you're just sorry you're just holding it
05:21I know just sorry because I'm not used to doing it the other way
05:23All right
05:31That's kind of nice
05:33Yeah
05:33That's like sort of haunting
05:34That's beautiful
05:35Yeah
05:35I feel sufficiently haunted
05:45I just can't
05:46For some reason that just feels so weird
05:48I'm just fucking struggling with that
06:04This there's too many words in that part of the verse
06:06No, it's like it's like
06:07Flashlight
06:10Wait no, I know
06:11You see it's weird
06:12It is weird
06:12It's just like
06:13Yeah
06:14My brain is like
06:15One, two more wood for the fires of our neighbors
06:27There you go
06:28Okay, sorry
06:29Okay, let's just can we do that like two times
06:34Yeah
06:34Can you do that with the pen like that?
06:36So here we go
06:37Okay, time out
06:47I'm only gonna take 10 seconds but I'm here to tell you about Musora where we are taking over the online education space for music
06:53Do you want to become a better musician?
06:55Well, you should click that link in the description below because at Musora we have the best musicians in the world
07:03Sick
07:03Sounds good
07:04Oh my goodness, I have such a good idea
07:07What is it?
07:08If we did like the interlude
07:09Four bars where we're all sort of like building like
07:15Like harmony
07:22But then for the final chorus
07:26Oh, one to one the world
07:28Oh, oh, oh hell yeah
07:31Yeah, hell yes, I'm super down
07:34Like going
07:35Lifting the chords
07:37So going like
07:42Yeah, I like that
07:44In perfect harmony
07:52Oh yeah, I had to get that
07:57Wow, so that's why they pay you the big books, Ben
07:59Oh, and then if we
08:00What if then the end like
08:01When I became the sun
08:03I shone into the man's heart
08:04That was just like single guitar strums or something
08:06And it was just us like harmony
08:07Oh yeah
08:08And then we just like
08:09We all cut out and it's just
08:10Then use our like singing in harmony
08:12Yeah, it was like
08:12When I became the sun
08:14I shone into the man's heart
08:16It's something like that
08:17Yeah
08:17Easy
08:18Yeah
08:18This could be a fucking Irish child song
