Duran Duran - Save a Prayer // Ambient Reinvention (Iridium, RYTM, DAW)

- It's been a while since the last one I did of this series. Nice to get this one done and dusted finally. Another ambient/electronic/instrumental take on an 80s hit tune. Most of this track is created in the DAW, with software, I'm just playing an ambient pad on Iridium live and the lead part (Omnisphere) on the higher keyboard split.
Recorded direct to DAW.
Video shot on a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k with a 15mm Leica Prime lens. Editing and colour grading done in Da Vinci Resolve.

Back in the 80s I was at a friends wedding. One of his friends was a stunningly beautiful girl who I danced with to the original track. The electricity between us was amazing. This new version brings back all those wonderful memories and feelings from year’s ago. I wonder if she listened to this track she would remember the same emotions? Thank you for the memories and the jump back in time. In the 80s we dreamed of the future-not realising it was the future- Bravo sir I’m young again 😁
ill go ask her :)
@@djjuno106 lol, when the electricity was amazing...just not amazing enough to stay in contact... ; )
Where is she ?
Hypergamy means probably not.
I miss the 80’s! Best years of my life, with so many great memories 🤘🏻
Been a Duran Duran for 40 odd years and this has to be the coolest rework of Save A Prayer I've ever heard. 👍👍
Thank God someone said what this melody was. It was driving me crazy. Save a Prayer - Duran duran.
This dude is a genius, why is he not super famous in the music industry?
Fame ruined many a musician. Just sayin’.
The majority do not appreciate musical wizardry. Garbage for the masses.

@strangerhythm VERY true. They're selling the "brand" AKA the musician/artist/band. But now everyone and every band has to become a "brand" or apparently there is no money to be made with the exception of touring or if you're extremely extremely blessed with #1 hits all across the world.
I'm not in The biz so don't quote me. I just watch a lot of interviews and could be very very wrong.
@@SonicDualityhere here totally agree 👍😎👍🇬🇧 Sept twenty three
Awesome....Great Space trip in the 80s. Nick Rhodes must be proud how amazing this "Save a Prayer " Riff sounds today. 👍
I remember how much I enjoyed the original by Duran Duran. I am enjoying this a lot more. There were so many great songs that came out in the 80's.
Just Fantastic State! Nick Rhodes...the Synth Wizard of the 80's. Got me into music & synths. I even ended up buying a Jupiter 8. Great rework of a classic right here State!!
One of my brothers got me into Synergy. I have loved the synth since just before my teens.
Always ...always GOOSEBUMPS no matter what you do....
mee too!
@@ommachines8201 me three!!
Especially from 3:14 I start drifting into another realm. Just awesome sounds. This is the future of music. Thank you so much. You are a musical genius
I hit Like before I'd even listened to it and was totally validated for the impulse. Your covers are all sublime and this is a particularly inspired choice. Please carry on.
Couldn't have said it better myself. :)
Anything this man does is worth listening to. He taps deep into the neural streams.
Would love to hear Nick Rhodes take on this rendition - personally I absolutely f*kin love it!!!
Oh, fantastic! THE song that got me into synths! Love the manic delays, the crazy glidey lead, the mellow middle section and the silky pads at the end!
A truly remarkable cover version of this eighties classic, beautifully haunting and poignant. Very powerful indeed. Wonderful wonderful wonderful. 🙏❤🇬🇧❤🙏 dec 2021
Your reimagining of these classic 80’s tunes is just gold every single time. Keep them coming. :)
Another masterpiece, SA; nice to see that you haven't lost your touch! So many wonderful songs from the 80s, and you know how to cover them so well. (See "In the Air Tonight" with Syberlilly for one of the best examples anywhere.) Thanks again for sharing your genius with us.
Gorgeous. Well executed , sympathetic yet different from the original.
Oh and I have shared this on several Duran Duran related Facebook pages I belong to, so hopefully this gets more views by fans
A stunning interpretation with pinpoint key changes, and a perfect outro. Nice work Sir.
Truly sublime, my good man.
I've always liked this track.
"Save it 'til the morning after."
You are extremely talented my friend, keep up the great work. Music to my ears.
Nice. One day someone is going to make the version I keep hearing in my head - the blissed-out one with Indian percussion and silver flute, as well as dreamy syncopated synth arps and incredibly lush, widescreen pads.
Simply Amazing , Save a Prayer a great Duran Duran track, also i love The Chauffeur
Yes. The Chauffeur is more haunting. Probably my favorite DD song.
took some shrooms and listened to this song. I laid down and closed my eyes and felt like a weight was placed on my chest. it was as if the mushrooms were asking me to be as still as possible so I could observe everything they were about to show me with complete concentration. during the song, every note, rhythm, and melody from each instrument broke open and separated as if I was able to see and hear with precise clarity each intricate detail of them as a whole but individually at the same time...and the longer the song went on, the deeper I went into what appeared to be this gigantic cave or tunnel that kept expanding and morphing into the most beautiful patterns and shapes and colors that cannot be described with words. it was as if I was inside the music and the machines and the force that causes human creativity. it was a blessing to be shown this. this rendition of one of my favorite tunes is beyond amazing. thank you.
That sounds awesome, wish I could try shrooms sometime in my life.
Try some DiMiTry instead. Did that with "Love on a Train" coupled with a Mandelbrot zoom...2 thumbs up.
@@Headbob1969ah yes.. some good ol' spirit molecule would be mighty fine paired with SA's tunes as well 👌🏼
One of my most loved songs from the 80s🙏🙏🙏
This is amazing... Big nostalgy of a far era where everything was much more real and we were much more true. 80s i really miss you.
Now this is a brilliant alternative mix.
No one has been able to remix the original as it was that good.
You've done it justice with this version.
Can't wait to to go on a drive at night and have this on
Ooooh Duran Duran....time machine back to my youth in the 80s. :) Nice job!
You have greatly influenced a music project I have been working on for 2 years. Best find on the internet today for me. Thanks so much!
Glad to hear that! Thank you!
This has always been one of my fave songs from the 1980s but your interpretation on it adds 1000 extra levels of genius. Thanks for this; I've sent this to most everyone I know.
Thanks for sharing. Your version feels richer in sonic textures than the original and brings it back to life in wonderful way.
Memories come flashing back.... the last song of the night... perfumes in the air.... the fog machine on to long.... the clove cigarettes... and a buzzing tingling sensation all throughout my body.
Good music is nourishment for the soul!! Soulfood!!
I see a lot or work went into this...would have liked a shot of the DAW performing its track playback!!....lovely stuff!
Absolutely stunning.
WOW! This is absolutely GORGEOUS! Well done! And PLEASE! Waiting For A Girl Like You by Foreigner!
This is simply gorgeous.
Still getting better and better with every loops of listening giving. Kudos!
This one went deep!
Genious. I knew from the very moment I heard it the first time it wa
s an universal timeless song.
Very very special way to bring into your style one of the best 80s pop songs! Great, i love your sound!
This is truely wonderful!!
Amazing.Love 80s all music still in my heart 🙏♥️
Awesome track. I like these 80's reinventions.
pure warm nostalgia. Thank you State
Love it, takes me back to better times.
Very beautiful, I need much much longer version.
Wow! Thanks again to State Azure once again for reimagining Save a Prayer. Of course the Duran Duran is brilliant, but this takes it to another level.
Maybe Save a Prayer could be re-released with this set to Simon Le-Bon's vocals as a bonus extra to a 12" single maybe??
Fantastic! Thank you for demonstrating just how magical soft/hard synths can be. Subscribed.
This cover is absolutely stunning ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏 chills throughout my whole body ❤️❤️❤️
This is a sweet take on the 80s classic, done with the usual high quality by SA that we love. I like all the parts and also the outro was especially nicely done here! Well worth supporting and listening, and I hope many others will discover SA in their musical journeys with tracks like these!
Wow! This gave me chills listening. It took me back. Loved it! Well done!
Superb rendition. Great ambiance created here, visual and audio together.
amazing rendition of a classic! you are the arpeggio master.
Back again..Utterly brilliant piece of music i get lost in this
Fantastic!!! Essence of the song enhanced.
One of my favs of DD - what a surprise to XMas, Thanks!
I'll make a background music of it to my next motorcycle trip video ;-)
The 80s in a new jacket ✨👌✨
I love the original! And i think this is an enchanting interpretation of this wonderful song!!
I have really been digging the Rio Album lately and this puts my favorite track from the album on another level. Love it
So beautiful.

Excelente versión de un icono de la música de Duran Duran y de la saga Misión Imposible

I feel your songs in my body, mind and soul.
Powerful, yet gentle. Wow. Who are YOU?
Thanks so much!
How did I miss this one. What an intro. Luuuuush.
Amazing!!! Congratulations for this wonderful song reinvention!
Very , very nice, some many memories brought back by this classic track, Thank You, you really did it justice, I would'nt get tried of listening to you take on it, hope alls well with you. Cheers, Chas.
Cool sound, this is Duran Duran, Tangerine Dream Style, Love It.
Wow! Just fantastic. 👍👏👏👏
Much more like this please 😊 ex. Japan - Ghost
Masterpiece.
Intro is just insane. Amanzing 🤩🤩🤩
Duran Duran meets Tangerine Dream 😁 Very good Mr State 👍
As a teen in the 80s I was always attracted to the more unusual or "exotic" synth sounds heard in popular music - this is a great example from the Duran Duran library! Similarly... "The Chauffeur" (sp?) also has great synth sounds. In 83-85, was listening to a lot of Duran Duran, The Fixx, Thomas Dolby, Depeche Mode, Tears for Fears of course... nice cover of this song!
PS: Duran Duran was my first second "real" concert in 1984 -- I took my little brother after graduating and just before shipping out to Basic Training in the Army ;)
Einfach fantastisch!👏👍🙏🤗thx🎹🎶🎵
Drums are warm and sound human. Nice.
