Weird that nearly 30 years later this track still sounds fresh.
Timeless.
Just like Pump Up the Valume from Maars.
Because that was MUSIC
@@fitogch Pump up the Valium
@@InternalMind "volume" 🤦🏻♂️ My mistake 🤷🏻♂️
Fantastic job Ski and the added surprise of Adamski appearing in person. 💯👌
Hard to overstate how immense this bassline sounded in clubs compared to almost everything else at the time.
Such a humble guy. He could have made himself appear like some kind of synth wizard, but clearly very secure in himself. His work speaks for itself, and it's refreshing hearing people who are honest.
OMG, the man himself, Adamski! The guy's a legend!!!
Hair at the back of my neck is standing up listening to this and watching how it was put together. Brought back a lot of great memories. Thanks for making this!!!!
Simplistic yet still awesome 30 years later.. I'm glad I lived through 80's/90's, THE best two decades for music.
Masterful. It's almost weird how Adam describes the messing around in such a simplistic way, since the track is certainly not a walk in the park, given how well the vocal and the strings and keyboards gel together.
Adamski Killer was a walk in the park for Adam when he was innovating. If you play a few notes and run it through some random delay in the moment pressing buttons and it sounds good then you roll with it and that's a part finished. It takes a lot more effort to put something back together, like a broken vase. Also, Adamski Killer was mixed in a professional studio (Advision in London) on an SSL console with the SSL G-Master Buss Comp so that's the gel you are hearing.
This is fascinating. Great work, and Adamski dropping in was a nice touch too. If you're taking requests, I'd love Voodoo Ray deconstructed.
It's a start! ;-)

Oh, all my "childhood"-music ;) - I'm in! ;)

Sick choon
Adamski. If you read this I have to say that you are a legend to me. You were the one one for me that gave me the best nights of my life years ago. I danced to you playing live at lots of raves, illegal parties and some great nights. You were up there with all the top acts back then. Respect to you.
wonderfull to see that you only need a couple of elements to make a legendary track! great deconstruction!
Brilliant work! These videos always depress me with how easy you make it look.
This is gold! Friggin` Legendary, @Point Blank Music School
Yeah! This takes you back to that time when the music scene was exiting doesn't matter what type of music you were into. Brilliant deconstruction.
Agreed
Most brilliant episode! Thanks Ski and Adamski.
AMAZING! Nice, can’t wait to settle in for this one. I saw Seal perform it live in 2015 and he’s got the best voice of anyone I’ve ever heard. You could have taken the mic off him and he’d have filled that arena while still sounding amazing. Such a powerful vocal.
omggg this is one of my favourite songs ever, Ski never fails to amaze, and I can't believe adamski showed up!!
Proper love these videos so detailed much respect ski .. thanks for taking time out to share your knowledge.
Love your Job guys!!! Keep on with this educational videos. They’re amazing and so helpful
How about. Energy Flash by Joey Beltram deconstruction ?
Still got my N.R.G adamski T shirt that I got from a biology rave ,I played his album to death back in the day and only played it again the other week,brilliant piano tracks ........I wondered what had happened to him ,nice to see him again.
This track defined my youth. Loved this break-down. Subscribed!
Simply fantastic! Stunning song.
WOW - fantastic! And so nice to see Adams himself! Really love these vids you do! Thanks!
And Valerie Etienne is awesome!!!
This is quickly becoming my favourite TH-cam channel. Awesome work, Ski!
Big fan of Adamski years ago... So great job, as usual Ski !!
Awesome job! Loved that track back in the day. Thanks.
What wonderful insight into this classic song. Nice one.
I HAVEN'T BEEN FOLLOWING YOU FOR A WHILE BUT REALLY LOVED THIS ONE . GREAT WORK AS USUAL. IT'S A KILLER, ALWAYS SPOT ON WITH THE DECONSTRUCTIONS. RESPECT
I loved it when it came, and i enjoy it as much today after all these years. Great job with the deconstruction.
Love it..love it. Tried this years ago...never got close. Top job sir
Haha Adamski! Some honesty I just messed around. Awesome.
This is such a tune and so great to have an interview with Adamski too. It's a thumbs up from me!
Ensoniq are rarely spoken about these days. Some really powerful hardware came out of their research. Much respect.
Amazing how it all comes together!!! Damn i feel old!!!
So nice !
This clip make my day...beatiful! Thank you!
Great deconstruction of an absolute classic 90s track. Valerie is impeccable! Love her singing and personality since Galiano years. Stunning performance! ❤️
You did an excellent job on the rhythm, thanks!
Wow, just amazing, bravo!
love this. the track still sounds up to date. great vocals as well
This was so well done, thank you Ski!!
wow, good choice ! this track is a little gem, you are a real pro \m/
Loved watching this remake..good job Ski!
one of my all time favorites
Absolutely f**ing wonderful!
Many thanks ! Yeah as well Adamski in the house
LOVE THIS!!! I just watched the whole thing, getting ready to produce my first dance song.
Goosebumps all over !
Such an epic track
Great work man
🙏🏼
Always a pleasure to see you "deconstructing" a song. Thx"
Fantastic.... thank you this deconstruction... brilliant... Adamski, Seal, Valerie and You of course. Big thanks...
Sooo good to see this!
fantastic, good old memories
As always....superb & thx
Wow.. My life is complete!.. gold!
The end result was very faithful and incredibly close to the original. Very interesting to watch. Thanks
(Just for the record i am not the Adamski aka Adam Tinley featured in the video) . Nice break down. I remember the rumor mill saying the bass was Minimoog model d. Great to hear it from the horses mouth.
The piano is very unique and refreshing to hear at the time after so much M1 Piano.
God bless Adamski 👍👍
Thank you Adamski and Seal, I always loved that song
Nice to see you in the flesh! Catch you later 🐙
Doesnt sound like a moog, it sounds like one of the SQ80 presets so not surprised it is this synth.
@@maccagrabme At the time i was unaware as it was certainly not a preset i had come across in all years of owning the Sq80. I pretty programmed my own sounds apart from using the preset piano.
Thank you for the song. Truly amazing tuuune!! Cheers!!
Thank you, brilliant!
Well done!! Sounds great!
So simple but brilliant
Gracias, me ha encantado ! 😀
So good mate.. I love these deconstructions - top class 👊🏻✌🏻
That closing party in amnesia 89 changed my life. Monumental night/morning and never had a better one since
superb. Soundtrack to my youth. Still have the vinyl. Love these deconstruction vids
well done point blank. Love these videos
I remember dancing around the living room in the my Pampers to this.
Wow, killer video, learned a ton of stuff in a short time.
love the lightning and the visual.
Iconic track.. great to see Adamski ! in the early 90's I had an FZ10M the screen went on it so I got an Akai.. was using C-Lab Notator.. still have the dongle. Thanks for a great vid Ski.. well deconstructed :)
I saw this ‘live’ a couple of weeks ago. Really handy.
oh i loved that song
wow you are a legend at breaking down these tracks and you make it look easy going to look through all you vids now thank you
Ski Oakenfull, masterful as always !!
Amazing to see Adamski in "real life" again - damn, wish I could just get stoned and make a track like this one ... bowing thrice :)
Could you guys deconstruct : Inner City "Good Life".
Haha! Love it. That song now only resonates with a privileged few.
@@michelem7786 Then I consider myself one of the very privileged! Thanks for jogging the memory :-)

OMG! Yes! Do it! I love that song.....
Fantastic video Ski
Great job. I think the ring-mod percussive sound in the original is so amazingly distinctive. Gives some needed grit. 🤓
What a wonderful, near perfect tutorial
So much talent you have.! Cant wait to hear your album of u2 in dubstep
excellent job recreating & exploring the original song!
Wooo! Ski deconstructions are back.
Excellent work! Well done!
Awesome! I love the technical nature of this stuff! The vocalist was also really good,
Cool deconstruction, thank you! Keep it up!
One of the best deconstructions I’m binge watching so far! Amazing to hear Adamski and how he did it. Similarly I recommend finding Rick Beato discuss “Kiss from a Rose” by Seal who similarly drops in! and says how he wrote it but couldn’t play an instrument and was just playing with his new 8 track. Sounds like you can do it all on feel and a ‘spiky’ set of talents
As good as it can get IMO: great de- en reconstruction and an interview with the man himself.
Awesome!
So great to hear about the history of this production. This release was one if the groundbreaking tracks of the early 90s
Great video as usual 👌
Amazing how much the drum over bass sounds make it.
noice..
i always loved the string sounds /harmonics in this track..
Amazing deconstruction! Very well done!
This is amazing. Killer is one of my all time favourite tunes. 👌👌👌👌👌👌
Love those deconstruction series, man!!
Perfect Ski. Literally perfect. This one is mind-blowing!
Love it! 🤞🎵🙏❤️
Fantastic!
Brilliantly done 👏👏
Should be released. Great classic track!
Superb as usual
Love it...super.
Fantastic 👌🏽
Would love to see the mixdown process of this too. Loved the video!
