with just the slightest shift…

23 Jan

…the old and familiar can become something new and interesting.

Somebody with a little time on their hands used some digital trickery to shift all those minor chords in REM’s “Losing My Religion” into a major key. The results are interesting – it’s the song you know, but shifting that third makes it into something entirely new, with a totally different emotional slant:

Oh, those strings, and the shift to A-major on that arpeggiated hook – I like it. A lot.

Makes me want to play that song in front of an audience now, just to see their reaction to the shift from the familiar.
