All of the perfection of digital signal processing these days, and what makes the track sound 'nice' is the noise, distortion, reduced dynamic range and saturation from an analogue tape recording.
Same with photography, trying to recreate that analogue feel with filters and such. I’ve a £3,500 Sony camera which I put a filter on the front of the lens to stop it being as sharp and have that film look 😂
@@mrdrgonzo Very true. I started off with VSCO film presets years ago. Spent a fortune making my state of the art camera look old!
Throw in the recycled vinyl for low cost pressing and the whole thing sounded like it was made years before it was

This song, one word: _sublime._ Grown adult and this tune touches every emotion from childlike joy to wanna bawl out cryin'.
FACTS🙌🏾
Anyone that prefers the vocal version doesn’t really understand the beauty of this track.
You may be right
Hi. Chicago House Head here. I have danced to this so many time. And your channel with this track came up in the algorithm because I was listening to t he original. Your breakdown was fun. And like you I prefer the vocal version. And you're 100% correct in that the tape sound makes the biggest difference! I'm not into this producing thing but thought I'd give it a watch. We sometimes get over protective, us old school folks, and I wanted to make sure it was being represented correctly. LOL Much respect! I did remember that in the U.K. House took off big time back in the 80's. It's so wonderful to see it still alive in some form across the pond.
Cheers!
Probably the greatest track ever made for me! So ahead of its time!
Its pure bliss even still today. A masterpiece.
I love it, but I like Mystery Of Love even more
I loved and still love these kinds of tracks where it’s all just loops and the art is in the sounds, simplicity and mix. It’s a whole vibe.
Such an amazing track, some of the most incredible moments in my life were spent dancing to this, it evokes memories of my late brother and I just grinning at eachother lost in the sound :( A melancholy tune for me now, I love, it brings me joy mixed with with a little sadness, amazing track.
Ah thanks for sharing, must be bittersweet for sure. All the best
Now this is how you create a classic deep house track! Sounds fresh!
Larry is a bonafide genius
I remember a older mate of mind dropping that track at his appt after a weekend of partying and it totally melted me
‘80s Chicago house = pure gold
A classic. Thanks for breaking this down. The honest simplicity of the time makes the track a tune, the basic technology and the tapes give the tune some style and signature but it’s those simple chords that give it it’s charming almost sorrowful Detroit beauty. It’s the man as much as his machines.
Absolutely
I've tried remaking this several times. One of the problems I initially had is that several of the releases (and TH-cam versions) are "out of tune", as they appear to have been sped up. I think Larry played it in A minor, but the master was varispeeded up so the released version is halfway between A and A sharp. So whenever I tried to play along to the reference track, mine always seemed too "dull" and off key. Larry's drums are also about 50 cents sharper than typical 909 samples which makes them sound a bit more cutting.
Each time you played a new part I got them goosebumps all over again, this track will be played at my funeral on the way in 💪 Roy Ayers Everybody loves the sunshine on the way out ❤️🏆
❤❤❤
YOOOOOO. Right on.
Virgo r u hot enough. th-cam.com/video/hNeExXesiRM/w-d-xo.html
This is my funeral music. This and High on Hope (long hot summer mix) by Microglobe. After the wacky intro bit when the nice cloud choir bit comes in of course :)
Undoubtedly one of the proper classics of house music ,I’m a absolutely a old house/ techno head .The simplicity of house music it what makes it so good it’s total grooves ,love your recreation’s of some of the tracks you choose I feel like your looking through my record collection and pulling out the classics…..maybe your get to Break For Love by Raze,Strings Of Life by Derek May or go on a few years to Energy Flash by Joey Beltram.
Hell yeah strings for life what a track..
All superb.
Larry was a true master...and this track will be something that all generations who appreciate music will listen to throughout time. Endless
I was an Hip Hop head back when this was out, I loved this track!
Hip-hop was my first love music wise :)
this song never gets old
As a 51 year old ex raver from back in the day I love what you do, What a great recreation… there are just so many tracks I would love you to cover I can’t wait to see what unfolds.. here’s a few - voodoo ray , hallucinogen, Orange Theme, Energy Flash, French Kiss, Age of Love, Your love Prodigy, I could go on and on and on ❤❤
Not an ex raver ALWAYS a raver! 😊
@@awkwardtom you’re right 😀 life changing times for many of us back then that those crazy memories and feelings we will take to the grave. naughty naughty very naughty 😂😂
Old raver’s never die the just die harder………get on one matey….😎
Yes Orange Theme - Cygnus X, one of my all time faves, absolute killer track 🙂
Keep on raving even beyond your 50's
Massive respect to you for that tutorial that's such a classic .
That was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING mate! I'm going to be a supporter pretty damn, soon, I found this track by accident just scrolling, I knew the track from my rave days, and to see you break it down so well, deconstruct it, its truly wonderful! That "tape" bit is so class, lol
An absolute classic, it can’t be overstated. Well done!
YES! This track hit me hard back in the day, and still hits me now after hearing it countless times. Thanks for doing this reconstruction, it was always such a mystery to me back then how these were made. Instant subscribe!
One the best records ever made
Superb deconstruction again. Age Of Love - Jam and Spoon remix next please....
Logic - Final Frontier
Chesus - Newark
Mr Fingers really inspired some heavy hitters!
Remember the female vocal bootleg? Think she sang “nation to nation, feeling so good. “
Probably one of the most important dance tracks in House Music history. Deep House at its finest.
Wow! This has to be one of the best recreations of a classic House track I’ve ever seen and heard.
Well done man 👏👏
Wow, thanks!
Nailed it, well and truly nailed it. The peak of a mis-spent youth.
Mister! Mister! Mister! You're taking me back to my teens, in Trinidad and Tobago! Radio 95.1 FM, on a Saturday morning! Thank you!!!
one of my favourite ever tracks ! Really enjoyed this and its brilliant simplicity , nice one
I really know my House Music and lived it all from the beginnings and must say, this all time favourite House tune! Great video to get an understanding on how it was made. This song has SOUL!!
Amazing tune. What a classic. Thanks for the breakdown.
Absolutely love and respect that you did this track .
i had the crowd pumping way back and threw this on. the resident DJ almost ripped it off the 1200s. not fast enough, he says. it turned out ok. it was fast enough.
Yep I agree the ride is so prominent but wouldn’t be the same without it. Epic job on an epic track….another one, thanks mate 😊
Its simple and basic something a beginner would write who has spiritual emotions..and good ears for drums..I started making tracks like this in mid eighties and have a few good ones..cheers to Larry's vibe
All these years, now I know where it came from & have just listened to Jackson 5 1981 tour live
Perfect.
Very cool episode. . Funnily enough I've recently dug up some old gear and been dumping DAW tracks to my Fostex R8 tape machine - well worth the time, and sounds GREAT .. Love your show - best on TH-cam. The Russian Dude is also worth a watch in 2022. ..
Very nice reproduction! I love this song and you're an amazing producer. Thanks for sharing.
this made my day
Incredible breakdown of this iconic snapshot of my youth ❤
hi and thank you so much for recreating my all time favourite house track.
absolutely nailed it.
kind regards.
The A/B comparisons at around 8 minutes was very telling. Good work.
TR 909 is staple of House, Techno, Trance and rave.
wow, so cool
Your recreation sounds so original! Great tutorial, thank you :)
From the time I heard Can you feel it back in the late 1980's, I bought it right away!
It’s in my playlist as of now I rock it daily at work 2022
Love this tune, Love the Martin Luther King jnr mix even more
I bought 'The Jacksons Live' LP years ago, as I was listening I heard 'Can You Feel It!!!' blast out of the speakers. I couldn't believe it!
Should have commented when you did Little Fluffy Clouds, but seeing you re create these old classics are just such a huge treat!
You got a new subscriber for sure!
Another epic recreation! Amazing work.
Congratulations on your 10k subscribers. Enjoying all your videos, GYU beats.
This track is eternal
Yeah this track changed everything for me. Working as a kid on Romford Market, East London, this track kicking out from the record stall. I didn’t just hear it, I FELT It ! Acciiiiiiiiidddd 😊
Love the bass.
I was 16 when I first heard CYFI. Still listening to it. One of my favourites
Your videos are great and I think you are a great teacher, I love you can explain complex things with simple layers. Big up again!+++
Absolute genius track. Thanks for the vid. I prefer the no vocals original. Just following those perfect changes as things come and go. Love it

If you don't mind me asking what swing are you using ?
I. Was in Chicago. When this was released and without the tape sounds more like the original
Nice one guy.
Great music deconstructions of classic electronic music! I am doing something similar but for other kind of music, but is always interesting to see other producers nailing the original records.
It's all about the feel of that track ✊
Awesome as always. Top work.
Classic! Thanks for this :)
I learned a lot here, thanks for the quality upload. And a special thanks for expanding my vocabulary with 'nicefies' I am going to start using it immediately ;-)
Fantastic recreation. What a tune!
Many thanks!
That Satin plug-in is nuts! I’m gonna have to buy me a copy of that. Great video by the way
Please do something from Yello's second album Claro Que Si. Daily Disco would be so interesting to see broken down. Loving this series so much. Brilliant 🙂
Wicked tune. Wicked video. Wicked tute.
Another great remake, Gyu. Always so detailed, accurate and entertaining. I have to admit, I get a tad excited when I see you've uploaded a new one. A suggestion for one of your future ones: "Andronicus - Make You Whole". I'd imagine it's fairly straightforward, but would love to see you do it.
Wow, thanks! Cheers for the suggestion I'll bear it in mind 👍
I swear to God I was listening to this yesterday and wanted to suggest it to you.
Amazing how simple the synth sounds are
Yep!
loving what you're doing sir.
brilliant. id love to seem more of these classic rave era ones but possibly going deeper into the rabbit hole as it were. when people mention "classic house" you always get the same tracks that appear on compilations but rarely mentioned are the tracks that reall glued those dj sets together back in the day that dont get much credit. it would also be cool to see a hole thread of producer specific breakdowns like kevin saundersons work and for a uk twist how about baby ford.?
edit: also how about new fast automatic daffodils "big" jon dasilva mix
Quality re make, subscribed! 🔥💎🔥
Didn't see this one coming! Love it!
Great info in this tut, thank you :)
Thanks for doing this for us! I followed along with community-made Reaktor ensembles "Ronald" Juno-60 and Tape Mate. Very interesting! It's amazing how much of this track's DNA is still heard in house music today.
Really enjoyed the video. Thanks
.
Thank You!
another great video, straight to the point & well edited ;)
Wow, the tape effect makes such a difference, adds a nice warmth to it.
Yeah it really does, I said it was subtle but I think I misspoke
Love these. Could really go for a "James Brown is Dead" breakdown!
Great choice. Love this track. 👍
Great video thanks ! The first chord is 100% A minor 7th add 9th. It’s a common “cool” chord shape. A in the bass left hand , right hand minor 7 G, 9th B , C flat 3rd, E 5th .
Cool, thanks!
I'm pretty sure the low 'A' isn't played so the progression would be CMaj7 / FMaj7 / Emin7 - but as you have said, the 1st chord ( CMaj7 ) is in 2nd inversion and played as G/B/C/E - it's a pretty common progression and if you play keyboard, it makes sense as the fingers ( no pun intended ) have little work to do. Great vids btw @GyuBeats. Subbed. :)
I’m gonna go with the intro from Addis posse-let the warriors dance, funky drum mix for that missing bit at the end
Great remake congratulations 😁😁👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks! 😄
De Nero… Disco Evangelists !!!
Please do more of these house how was it made videos
Nice channel - subscribing for the nerdy stuff which I love haha
nice one
Thanks Gyu, just used that Choral tip on a similar Bass line I have been working on and it punched me in the face! 😆 Cheers!
Great!
still remember Tony Humphries playing this to open his show at times on 98.7 kiss fm. classic track
Yes, instant classic once tony introduced this... remember him playing this with snippets of rocky and bowinkel...
Just think how amazing the tune sounded in 88 for the first time in a club
amazing bro!!! 👏🏼 I would take the G down and let it rub against the A.
The tape is brilliant. It homogenizes the sound and somewhat gates a lot of the frequencies. - And it _actually_ made it sound like the original. Only after that step did it sound right.
Yes I agree 100%
I met this masterpiece thanks to GTA San Andreas, one of the radios called SF-UR (San Fierro [Fictional city of the game based on San Francisco] Underground Radio), a radio FULL of underground electronic music from the 80s and 90s, including this absolute banger
