![[4K] Sleep Token - Ascensionism (Live at Wembley)](/img/n.gif)
Damn, now I want to hear Sleep Token with a live orchestra. Feel like their music naturally lends to it.
I’m sure after the big Wembley show there could be talks of using an orchestra for a few big shows.. I’m speculating but it could be plausible!
Their music uses a good dynamic range so lends itself so well for the integration of orchestra!
Thanks for listening! 🖤
Imagine Sleep Token at Royal Albert Hall like Bring Me The Horizon did years ago
@@PsychoOfTheDeadexactly this. Would be legendary
Omg YES
I thought this a long time ago. It would be absolutely incredible!
Sleep token x royal Albert hall will be a spectacular show
I’m sure if they keep growing the way they are it’ll happen!
Remember when Bring me the Horizon did it, EPIC
@@UN3ARTHagreed
I love Metal and Orchestra, LOVE it. Love it when Metallica did it, Architects, Bring Me all of them. Sleep Token has become my new favorite band and listening to this was like listening it to the first. Thank you for making this and please do more.
I’m glad you enjoyed it Quazar! There are many more songs on the suggestion list for the future - there’s enough so far to cover this whole year every Sunday! Thanks for listening and thank you for your support! 🖤
Dimmu Borgir!!
Metal came from Orchestral music. I'll fight about it. Haha!❤
My jaw couldn't possibly drop any further. Wow. The choir addition to the rap section was beautifully done. And don't even get me started on the drop after diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky. Stunning work once again!!
Hi Evrth! I’m glad its being received well 🖤 I feel my mixes have gotten a little better over time too so achieving more clarity is good!
Yeah the strings really bought out the ending after the drop!
Thank you so much for your support 🖤 and thank you for your comment!
The most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. Literally brings tears to my eyes. Worship
I’m glad it evokes such emotions - music is all about the way it makes you feel and is good for the soul 🖤
I literally got goosebumps listening to this. Sleep Token live with an orchestra would be insane!!!!
It’s got to happen right?! It would be silly not to happen!
@@jamieturton666 some day! 🤞
If i had 7 minutes and 18 seconds left to live....i would play this. BEAUTIFUL
🙏🏻🖤
but, you dont. you have 5 minutes and 12 seconds.
@@aphthitonontop Would you look at that, just enough time to play Euclid. Or Telomeres
😂🎉
God I love the original so much but this somehow takes it another step further. The vocals during the rap section are so hauntingly beautiful along with the orchestral parts in the rest of the song always serving to elevate the original sound without overpowering it. This is honestly a masterpiece!
This makes me happy as this is my intention entirely 🙂 to use the sonic fingerprint of the band and emphasise it with the orchestra… so I’m glad it was received that way 🖤 thank you for listening!
This is insanely well done. It's very difficult to take an already incredible song and add something to it without taking away from what was already amazing about it. You've managed to do that sir. Well done.
Thank you Nzed! I’m glad you enjoy these additions 🖤 I enjoy working outside the box and following the vibe and sonic identity of different bands as it makes me compose in a way I may not otherwise.
Thank you for listening and thank you for your comment! 🙏🏻🖤
If I don’t hear this everyday for the rest of my life I might die. This is more important than breathing
This makes me happy 🙂 I’m so glad this version has made such an impact on you 🖤 thank you for your support Sarah!
For a live Sleep Token show I imagine the angelic sound of an orchestra, but then an electric cello just letting it rip on the heavy
That mixed with some overblown low brass! 🫡🖤
I love how you're going through Take me Back to Eden. I'm all here for it! This one is also great once again.
Hey Tunaman! At this rate I’ll get them all done! 🤘🏻 thank you for your support! 🖤
Oooo thanks for the chills --the sinister sounding section around 5:00 is awesome
I’m glad you received the chills! Yeah, had to go full evil for the 5 minute mark - the guitar riff was asking for it! 🙂🖤
I will have to start a petition to alert ST that Jamie T has added a beyond-epic touch to every ST track and continues astounding his listeners! A whole new audience can be gained from this. I am not kidding! Thank you for another brilliant orchestral mix! I cannot wait for you to do Jericho, Calcutta, When the Bough Breaks, Fields of Elation, and Levitate!
Hey Bill! Thank you for your kind words! I really enjoy what I do so the fact that so many people enjoy these works makes me happy! There are many many more Sleep Token tracks coming so I hope you and everyone else continues to enjoy them 🖤 I’ve put Fields of Elation on the list for you as your other suggestions are already on the list. I believe When the Bough Breaks may be the next ST track coming up!
Thank you again for your support! 🙏🏻
You absolutely slayed this one man. I hope that the band hears your renditions and plays with a live orchestra at some point.
Hey Manpons! Thank you for your support as always man! Appreciate it! Well if the channel keeps growing you never know - one of them might see them!
Wow I was not expecting it to add such an awesome dynamic...just wow. Hope the band sees this.
Glad you enjoyed the additions! Thank you for listening! 🖤
Well thanks. Now i can cry to this song in a new way. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks Tim! Glad you enjoy the additions! 🖤
Way back early 2000, bands make acoustic versions of songs. But now, I think orchestra versions are the premium versions of acoustic ❤️
I’m enjoying that orchestras are having another breath of life - they’ve always been present in music more or less but the resurgence is very pleasing!
Thank you for listening!
Wow, this is incredible! This is my favourite song off the new record, and the orchestra just made me love it even more. Hoping for a ritual with a live orchestra, that would be a dream come true.
Hi Jo! I’m glad you enjoyed the additions! I’m sure they will have spoken about it at some point.. it’s just a matter of when it’ll happen!
Wow Jamie!!! I've been patiently waiting for this one!! That intro with the soft strings was absolutely divine and i loved the added vocal thrown in, it just gave it that extra vibe 👍 From start to finish you absolutely nailed it. Movie score material for sure!! Well done 💯🔥
Hello again Evaj! I’m glad it was worth the wait! I wanted to get this one done before new years but I didn’t have time for a track as long as this.. and I’m glad I did give it the time it deserved!
Thank you for listening as always and thank you for your support! 🖤
if there was a live with orchestra, anyone in the music pit should be grateful to play for sleep token!
Who knows, it might happen 😅 we just have to wait and see!
3:59 wow, i'm speachless!
Seriously, Jamie, thank you very much for this video! Great work!
Thank you for listening Danny! I appreciate the support!
My only critique is that i kind of feel like there's some conflicts with the original vocals being muddled by the orchestra. The impact feels lessened. But other than that, i do like a lot of things that are added, esp the vocals at the end, when combined with the cut-offs.
Thanks for listening Skull! I was attempting to add a little more dissonance to the track to add some tension. I’m glad you enjoyed it though 🖤
I think it adds tendsion and more storytelling but it is not as heavy
I love how you emphasized the harmonic minor feel in those background harmonies! Music theory can be tricky as hell to understand sometimes but it's such an awesome tool to have in your back pocket when it comes to writing something awesome like this
BossWaffle! Love the name! 😄
I honestly have a soft spot for harmonic minor so you can imagine my excitement when I realised I could hint at it with this one!
I’m glad you enjoyed this one - thank you so much for your support! 🖤
I’m also usually a little quicker with responses but I’ve been so busy this week so please excuse the late reply!
Wow... This band has become one of my favourites so rapidly, a few months ago. Thank you for this, thank you. It's magic.
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to listen 🖤
Another masterpiece... Thank you again for these truly amazing covers
MMMLEEERIOOY! I hope you’re keeping well! Glad to be of service! 🖤 I’m just glad others enjoy listening to them as much as I enjoy creating them!
wtf why is this so good
Thank you Nath! I’ve made a playlist of all the other Sleep Token tracks I’ve orchestrated to date if you’d be interested!
th-cam.com/play/PLjfh7F14KZDGHiv8IDMxF0c2KIx9mb1oS.html&si=ZJZfzWgad6b5r1uU
Thanks for listening! 🖤
I didn’t think this song could get better but OMG 😭 this is next level next level
🙏🏻🖤 I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for stopping by to listen!
Since I’ve started listening to Sleeptoken, it was so deep and emotional, I’ve always thought it would be amazing to have them with an orchestra during concerts. You just give us a glimpse of what it could sounds like and I thank you for that 🙌🏻🖤
It would be a great evolution for their live shows for sure, I guess the style of the next album will help us understand the potential for this to happen.
Thank you for listening! 🖤
Omg I have never heard a more prefect version
Thank you Horizon! I decided to reach outside of the box a little more with this one as I had a vision of the final product and I’m glad I did! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 🖤
This could be the pinnacle of music so far.
🖤 kind words indeed! Glad you enjoyed it Nat1Ka!
I thought the goosebumps were over and then we hit 6:20 and I think my soul left my body ✨
I really enjoyed the euphoric nature of the outro section - it offers such a emotional and ethereal feel that strings compliment so well 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed it 🖤 thank you for your support!
Please never stop making these my man, this is actually so damn cool. Wonder how The Love You Want would sound like in this style
Hey Justin! I have no intention of stopping 🤘🏻 the list of suggested songs is well over 50 now so there’s at least 50 weeks of content on its way! 🖤
This is the ultimate version of this song! PERIOD! The original version doesn't make any sense to me anymore! YOU NAILED IT!
I’m glad you think so! Thank you for listening and I really appreciate the comment 🙏🏻🖤
This is gorgeous! Giving me big Earthside vibes. Amazing work :D
Earthside are a very underrated band.. thank you for the compliment! Thanks for listening! 🖤
The "diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky" explosion reminded of the orchestral parts on Mob Mentality instantly lol
I had no intention of it being similar 😅 I’m glad that it is though!
Awesome work!
p.s. this needs to happen IRL
I’m sure it will at some point! We just don’t know when!
Thanks for listening! 🖤
That freaking crescendo-ing "aaaaaAAAAHHHH" vocal in the R&B part made my soul leave and watch my body listen to this track
I’m glad it’s ethereal nature transposed as intended 🖤 thank you for listening and thank you for your support!
i literally have goosebumps listening to this so hauntingly beautiful!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! I took slightly more musical risks with this one and I’m glad I did as I was pleased with the end result too! Thank you for listening!
Beautiful! That Major lift was just out of this world! I love the fact that you don't go overboard, and layer exactly where it fits in the natural vibe. Great job Jamie!
Thank you Spook! I do try to work with the intention of composing the orchestra around the sorce material as best I can as if the bands were to do it themselves. It’s been a great learning experience for me composing for the different bands styles!
Thank you for listening and taking the time to comment 🖤 means a lot!
Hey Jamie this is Berty Ashley :) Have a great new year! Looking forward to your work as always
Hey Berty! It’s showing you with a different name! 😅 and I didn’t realise! I hope you and your family had a great holiday season and new years too!
Totally agree! The depth added to this song that is already divine just amazes me. I've always said, with progressive or metal music, it is just as complex as classical orchestral music. Thank you so much!!
I played this preparing to be disappointed, but you kilt it. Just subtle enough, it accentuates the vocal & all of the layering happening & they have a naturally “space” soundscape that would lend itself to strings very easily. Not too “In your face” like Now and Then or any re-done revolver era Beatles stuff. Worship. 🙏
I’m glad you weren’t disappointed - I do try to use the emotions and enhance the sonic fingerprint provided by the band instead of engulfing it so I’m happy you received it in such a way.
Thank you for listening and thank you for your comment 🙏🏻🖤
Dear Jamie, IMHO all these arrangements you'd done so far are stunning! Please, just keep up with astonishing work and don't pay attention to those who trying to blindly provoke the authenticity of your creativity.
Respect, pal!
Hey Cyberslot, I’m glad you enjoy these additions and thank you for your kind words - luckily most people are nice or at least constructive, I enjoy constructive criticism as it helps me understand a viewpoint I may not have considered but I really have no time for rude, arrogant or narcissistic input about a purely subjective medium. These people honestly have no impact or bearing on what I’m doing and that will never change. It’s ok to not like or enjoy something that other people do enjoy but it’s all a matter of opinion and that is all.
Thanks again for your comment - it’s very meaningful!
@@jamieturton666 You're very welcome!
Jesus Christ this is spectacular!!! You gave space when it was needed and built tension when it was needed and also depth, the layers… the backing vocals, ugh all of it was so spot on. Fantastic!!!
I’m glad you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed creating it 🖤 there’s more ST coming this Sunday too 🤫
Some bands an orchestra doesn't always work with their music, but this meshes almost perfectly. Love it!!
Thanks for listening Komet! Glad you enjoyed the additions! 🖤
I haven't heard a song as good as this since I descended from the great sky above
That it very kind of you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Fu*k!!! This sounds so good!! The opera singers over the verse is nuts!!
Glad you enjoyed these additions Bobby! I wanted something a little special for the verse with a mild middle-eastern discordant feel for melody displacement and I was happy with how it came out so I’m glad you like it too!
OMG Epic. Thank you for doing my theme song. It is beautful as is - and beautiful now, with a twist. I Love It.
"Diamonds in the trees, pentagrams in the night sky" 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Thank you Shivala! Appreciate you taking the time to listen and I really appreciate the comment! 🖤
@@jamieturton666 No, thank you for creating a beautiful layer and addition to an already beautiful song. That end node is the stuff of legends ❤️. This is added to the list! Will watch out for further creations from you.
I appreciate it, thank you 🖤 I upload every Sunday so hopefully I’ll see you there!
@@jamieturton666 Already subscribed. Eating my way through the rest of your creations - not to gush, but I just really like how you create a musical "counterpoint"...a challenge... in the songs - I don't know the correct musical theory term. Going with the nodes as they are would probably be easy (for you, I mean)...but you don't. You challenge them. That's what an artist does. Probably not everybodies cup of tea - but I like it. I appreciate. I hear you.. And I think I hear..."it". Thanks!
I feel that if any of the orchestral instruments are doubling any of the notes the band plays then it holds no place. The notes should be harmonising and supporting what already exists. There’s so much hidden character in the negative space and it’s just so fun to explore the ‘unheard’ melodies.
You’re right though - it might not be everyone’s cup of tea and there will always be purists with the argument of music being about the notes you don’t play… and that’s completely ok. I just experience great enjoyment in exploring these melodic avenues… so I’m honestly very grateful that others enjoy them too 🖤
Man this is bananas
Glad you enjoyed the additions Amadeus!
This is everything I didn’t know I needed. My ears have been blessed
I’m happy to have surprised you Tiffany 🙂 thank you for listening! 🖤
Listen if you ever do Dark Signs that would be the end of me
Well it’s on the list so it’ll get done eventually!
oh DANG! Bruv this is EPIC, I didn't think you could make ST better, and now you've done it! Hats off!
oh my god. it gave me LIFE! i LOVE IT so much i could die.
Hopefully the life it gave you prevented you from dying! 🖤 I’m glad you enjoyed it Nana! Thank you for the comment!
Love this Jamie!
I feel like this is a different avenue to your usual orchestra led layers - the added vocal layers are an amazing touch!!!
Hey Jake! Yeah I took a slightly more voice and ambient led approach to the quieter sections this time. I spent a good amount of time getting the vocal layers right so I’m glad you like them!
Absolutely love this. If I would add anything, it would be nice to hear some accents with flutes and piccolos in the breakdown section after “diamonds in the trees”
Thanks for listening Hiker!
*CHEF'S KISS* BRAVISSIMO, MAESTRO!!!
Thank you Kristin! Thank you for listening! 🖤
MY god !!!! This is beauty ful !! thanks !!!
Glad you enjoyed it Jojo! Appreciate the support!
Thanks to this song, i've ascended.
👹🙌🏻🖤
Well that's an instant sub, I love your work.
Thank you for the sub! Welcome to the channel! I’m glad you’re enjoying these works 🖤
Dude, you're an absolute artist. This version is absolutely beautiful. Well done!
Thank you P4PKing! There are many more Sleep Token tracks on the ‘to-do’ list so there will be many more!
THE ONE IVE BEEN WAITING FOR! This was perfection. Thank you.
This was asking for an orchestra! I’d had my eye on this one for a while! 😅 glad you enjoyed it Drex - thank you for listening!
This is so so fuc...ing GOOD!!!!
Respect!
Free drugs wooo! 😅 I’m glad you enjoyed it FRS! 🖤
This was every bit as epic as I thought it would be! Great job as always Jamie!
Hello again Thomas! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for your support man - means a lot!
Well done. I thought it was a little busy at times like you needed the orchestra to have a place but it grew on me. I could definitely see them using an orchestra on that big stage while Vessel runs around dancing like a mad man covered in mayonaise.
I did take a slightly different approach with this one with more ambient style additions, I’m glad you still liked it!
It would be great to see them with an orchestra in a live setting… maybe all the black body paint is just charcoal mayonnaise?! 🧐
This was incredible 🤯 into the playlist it goes
Thanks Doxxgang! Appreciate the support!
Thank you so much for sublimating the words of our Messi. May the cult of sleep cherish you all ❤
🙏🏻🖤
Your channel is grossly underrated this is beyond beautiful 🖤🙏😩
Thank you Lyricnoel! 🖤 appreciate the kind words!
I really thought they couldn’t be any better and this absolutely shattered my soul. Well done ❤
I’m so glad you enjoyed it Krystal! 🖤
Never disappointed.
Thanks Jamie. You made my sunday.
Thank you WilledGuy! Glad to be of service 🖤
Oooooo I love this song, can’t wait to listen
Yep, I really love it. This is genuinely like, the perfect arrangement. I love the vocals you added being so prominent, the horns during the big parts, and the soft strings during the quieter parts. Absolute masterpiece you’ve got here
Hey Arn! You always brim with positivity and I enjoy that about you!
I feel like I’m really finding a grove and feeling confident in the visions I have for these tracks. I’m currently working on my first original full orchestral composition using some new libraries so we’ll see how it goes! 😅
Thanks for listening brother! I’ll be in touch soon!
@@jamieturton666 Yo how did that original composition go? I'd love to hear it!
I needed this one tonight. Wow, this is just gorgeous.
I’m happy you enjoyed it Chellanthe!
I was not expecting this to be as well done as it was… holy shit that was incredible 😍
Glad you enjoyed it Mothbait! 🖤 thank you for listening!
Literally gives me chills ❤Incredible!!
Free feel good drugs! 🖤 glad you enjoyed it!
Already saved to playlist, cause I know it's gonna be EPIC 😏 💚💙
I was right. Fckn KILLED IT, Jamie!! I really think you need to pass this along to Sleep Token. They need to jump on this! Even Metallica played with a live orchestra!!
And 5:13 - 6:23 😭😭😭😭 Hauntingly beautiful
Great job, yet again 🙌🏻🤘🏻🖤💙
Hi again Menm! So glad you enjoyed it! I really enjoyed doing this one - lots of cool dynamics to work with!
I’m sure ST will have already have spoken about using an orchestra at this point - I feel it could just be a matter of time before it happens!
Woooow.. this is beautiful ❤️
Thank you Eluisa 🖤 thanks for listening!
I almost never comment on videos.. But all I can say is WOW I truly didn't think this song could get any better. I've been saying for a while they need a show with an Orchestra, I was and still am wondering if they will show up with on at the Red rock amphitheater in Colorado.
Also if you haven't already (i'm going look) Atlantic would be another amazing song to do!!
Thank you for giving us this masterpiece!!
Well I very much appreciate the fact that you chose to comment JD! There is a good possibility that they will eventually do some big shows incorporating an orchestra, there seems to be a lot of interest in the idea.
I haven’t done Atlantic yet but it’s been on the list for a little while so should be coming up soon enough 🙂
Thank you for listening and thank you for your support!
You made a beautiful song more beautiful, the impossible has been achieved
🤘🏻🖤 I’m glad you enjoyed the additions!
Unreal dark and lovely orchestra, master version.
A bold claim 🖤 thank you!
Leo has a voice perfect for this.
Good job he’s the vocalist then! 😅 thank you for listening Jeremy!
Holy shit the phrasing at the beginning is perfect! The chords are magical!
Thank you Firewiss! I really enjoyed doing this one! 🖤 thanks for listening!
This was awesome
Happy you enjoyed the additions!
Goooooodneess. This was COLLASSAL.
10 OUT OF EFFIN 10.
This goose score fits the bill 😜 really enjoying the name! Thanks for the generous scoring! 🖤
Hmmm sometimes I feel it doesn't fir together, maybe it's just me thinking that this song it's already perfect without adding anything more
Maybe it just needs a few more listens 😉 I appreciate your honesty. Thank you for taking the time to stop by 🖤
I understand what you’re saying here but I think that’s what makes this so impressive. The original is literally perfect so adding anything else in sometimes seems a little much but it brings another dynamic which is really impressive. I’d pay money to go and see this live 100%.
My absolute favorite song and this is a masterpiece. Thank you
Thank you for listening! 🖤
Chills down my spine! You made an already perfect song that much better - great work! 🖤
Thank you Cocteau! I’m glad you enjoy these works! 🖤
Whoa.... this is beautiful! I got chills ❤
I’m glad you enjoyed it Sam! Free healthy drugs are always the best! 🖤
My hero
Glad you liked it! 🖤
Another masterpiece ❤
Thank you Hampson! Thank you for your support! 🖤
Excuse me, Good Sir! This has no business being this good. Absolutely floored! Don´t do this to me (Now off you pop to make more!)
Thank you Lina! Not to worry, I have multiple projects on the go currently! This year is going to be a busy one! 🖤
I’ve been waiting for this one… so good!
Hey Vex! I hope it was worth the wait! 🖤
super stoked to hear this. your version of Vore made me fall in love with that song. It took it from being my least favorite of the first singles to my favorite.
This is very flattering to hear - I’m just very glad I did it justice! Thank you for your support, it does mean a lot
sounds heavenly!
Thank you Tim!
Beautiful. I would love your orchestral version of The Apparition, please.
Hi Marie! The Apparition has been on the list for a while now so should be coming up soon enough 🙂 thank you for listening! 🖤
Dude this shit is so fucking amazing
🙏🏻🖤 glad you enjoyed it Foo!
Would kill to hear Are You Really Okay. Loved this, subbed instantly
It has been on the list for a while so shouldn’t be too long to wait 🙂
Thanks for the sub! Welcome to the channel!
This is incredible!! It just makes sense
Thank you KC! I’m glad you enjoyed the additions!
Amazing!!
Thank you! 🖤
Been waiting for this one since I first found your ST arrangements. Awesome work as usual.
I’m glad it was worth the wait and glad I didn’t disappoint! 🖤
This is absolutely Beautiful ~ goosebumps!!! 🫶🖤🫶
Free drugs! 😅🖤 thanks for listening!
Beyond words!!
🖤 glad you liked it!
I sorta wish the strings were a little more prevalent in the mix, but besides that, this was a fantastic idea, and incredibly executed!
It’s a battle I have every day 😅 it’s about finding that fine balance though as I don’t want to drown the band out but it needs to be audible. I’m still learning when it comes to mixing though too so hopefully I’ll improve in time!
Thank you for listening 🖤
got tickets for Sleep Token at Radio City Music Hall. hoping they have an orchestra
It would be an amazing surprise! I hope you enjoy the show!
Phenomenal work!
It's my favorite song from the album and now i love it even more 😩💖
I’m glad I could do it justice! 🖤 thank you for listening and thank you for your support!
