I've reconstructed Blue Monday about 10 times over the years since 1990 or so, and I have to say this was very impressive. I didn't know that was a Kraftwerk sample!
you have "reconstructed" BM for 25 years and you didn't know of the Kraftwerk sample ? ...
I was going to say "well, the internet didn't exist back then so I couldn't easily look it up," but I owned the Kraftwerk album so I really have no excuse.
mmoncur lol, ok. Look for the story of Blue Monday in YT. There you will find many other interesting facts.
The original sound that Kraftwerk used is from a 60's Mellotron - it's the choir sample...
It's actually the vako orchestron not a mellotron
Everytime when Ski does a deconstruction, it amazes me so much... really cool...
This song is so good, I love Peter Hook’s ‘hooky’ bass line most of all. ✌️☺️
Thanks for the deconstruction of this classic track. Good work as always Ski!
Incredible as always by Ski!! One of the BEST Deconstructions!!
This was fascinating! And he does everything with such ease...
That is awesome ski is *the* man when it comes to this stuff!
This is quite brilliant. Well broken down. So well recreated. Very impressive. Love it!
Due to factory not sending out promos , Blue Monday is the top selling 12" ever. Every DJ in the 🌎 purchased it.
Love this song... yet another great choice to deconstruct and reconstruct 😍
Glad to see this kind of videos, for those ( included me) results very inspirational and encouraging stuff, keep working on this way plzs...thxs
My fave band of all time. I have BM and BM '88 on vinyl. Beyond essential to my collection. Bragging a bit. Thanks for this.
I love this song from new order one of my favourites I did not know that their was a sample from kraftwerk in it
One of the best tutorials I've seen!
Love these videos
So many disco and dance tracks have used that style of bassline and four to the floor disco groove together, it's a classic floor-filling groove love it!
80's dance music took disco octave bass and 4/4 beat, but made it more electronic
Amazing, great workflow. Love watching your vids
I just find out his song is 5 years older than i thought!! Oh my, and still sound so updated!!!!! I love it
It's funny how the original has dated far better than the 1988 remix version.
Just found your channel and I'm loving these deconstructions! I would LOVE to see some Depeche Mode ones
Great tutorial. Would love to see a Pet Shop Boys deconstruction, maybe of something musically a bit unusual, like Left to my Own Devices?
inspiring as always!
This concept sounds like it should be the most boring thing ever....but I can't stop watching. Great video. More of these!!
Great work Ski, thank you Point Blank!
Absolutely awesome!
excellent teacher! enthusiastic and so easy to follow!
so hype to be here! lets get crackn
And another of my favorite songs!!!!!
Great video - tons of detail.
Master of masters, Ski!!
Fantastic!
This video is amazing.
*I ♥NEW ORDER*
Thank you, Brilliant breakdown.
Even the trees have ears! Thanks - I didn't realise how derivative Blue Monday was of other tracks (although bringing all those sources together made a great new creation).
Best Deconstruction ever!!!!! Big shout bro
Nice one, as always, I saw you at Sonar night, I'm from Barcelona and ex student at Point Blank. Regards.
Excellent work ...
Sky,you're great,like always!!!!
Mind blowing so much knowledge, thanks!
Cool video, man this is my favourite song.
This was excellent! 👍👍👍👍🎹
I FUCKING LOVE THIS!!!! I just purchased my push 2 and already learned a lot from this. Please more deconstructions!
such a great song
Crazy accurate, Ski is the man.
Great video, I'd like to give this a try
So cool. Thanks !
this was fucking awesome!!!!
Amazing!
excellent deconstruction thanks for this :-)
Brilliant Ableton demo.
Bernard Summers built a 'PowerTRAN' ETI 1024 actually. He also built a Powertran Transcendent 2000 Synth (as did I back in the day) and they used it in one of the songs. Cool vid.
ua-cam.com/video/yn6zIr-Ff0A/v-deo.html looks like he's using the sequencer live here.
I saw the documentry on the tune and I had no idea that the beat is out of time but on the mixdown you can't tell. First time I have seen the original video. I never knew there was one.
Thank you.
man I tried my hand at creating a New Wave track yesterday and only today I find out you guys deconstructed Blue Monday, smh at myself lol, this would have helped so much
Ski u r the MAN!!!!
Amazing
I love these videos yep you guys are great , but you are soooo Lucky you have faster processors to keep up and much more flash memory than in 1984 thats for sure either way thank you!
Quality!
A Depeche Mode Deconstruction would be super awesome. Maybe Personal Jesus
YES!!
Personal Jesus is a fine track, but I d be more interested to have "Strangelove" or "Never let me down again" as they are way more complex.
"Deconstruction Time Again"
Very good deconstruction, though I was sad they cut off your presentation before you could get to the FM Bass which is my favorite part of the song
Only thing that bothered me was that he didn't max all the velocities of the kick. It needs that static feel to break through. Otherwise a great deconstruct. ☺️
Yes needed a lot of reverb
PLEASE DO ORBITAL HALYCON ON AND ON
....and Enjoy The Silence.
... and 808 / Pacific State.

Papau new gunea future sound of london
Nice!
Awesome
Cheers!
I love these deconstructed tracks. Never knew Blue Monday had its roots in disco!
You can't hear it the first time you bear Blue Monday? It's blatantly hi-energy influenced.
Brilliant
Fantastic, how did you get your hands on the blue monday stems, bass and vocals? Or did you just 'difference' them?
The disco, house and ambient influences were so apparent yet I never noticed them before.
how could you not notice it before?
Funny thing about that Klein & MBO track is that it references Patrick Cowley’s “Megatron Man” at one point
Love these deconstructions. How do you pick out the notes/chords please?
respect!!!!!
The thunder sound would be the cherry on top.
Great tutorial.
Reverb and Limit a pitched snare
Point blank's best Deconstruction
deconstruct 'A Forest' by The Cure this should be super easy or 'Open Up' from LeftField
All alone
im so glad that they included these in gran theft auto VCS, that is how i got exposed to these songs from before my time lol, been hooked on them ever since
A Master 👌
Shoutout to all the people who say shit like “It’s just pushing a button.” I’d love to see them try and do something brilliant like this
Awesome, per usual. [I'd like to see Depeche Mode, something from VIOLATOR.....]
Very well done. It may be more accurate to say BM was a link from New Wave/eurodisco to late 80s dance music or maybe techno. However, actual Chicago house music was already underway when this tune was released. Perhaps that influenced them. Definitely not the other way around though.
Ski, can you deconstruct one of the Frankie Knuckles tracks please, Lets stay home for example?
You should try to recreate Benny Hill theme song :)
i first heard it at a party in the nurses common room, selected and played by Ashley Beadle then aged about 6 or something hahahahaha him and his dad an me all worked together at the same hospital...
Pretty work. Please do KLF
Great tutorial! Where can you find the synth clav sample. I've been trying to reconstruct it, also adding some LFO modulation of the frequency cutoff in the filter, but I constructed the sample from scratch using 2 oscillators (1st being a pulse, 2nd being a square that is slightly detuned), with a little FM modulation of the 2nd oscillator by the 1st. I also added a little reverb and flanger in the effects. However, the preset used in this tutorial is closer to the original. I wonder if it is available somewhere.
Cool
I'm more interested in which FX (+EQ) are used on the snare and the claps. :)
That's it. I'm starting a pop band.
Ery good
how do we get the project file?? the link just take me to pointblank webpage
A Deconstruct of: Truth (Mark Goddard) - The Start (1992)
would be awesome! :)
este tio es un p.... genio
Great job! How did you get Hooky's bass part and the vocals? They're not in the project's zip file. Is it a licensing thing?
ua-cam.com/video/Cr-GJzXQQHQ/v-deo.html I think it's slowed down so you may have to fine tune it
There's something not quite right about the brass - on the record I think they might have used a delay to create a kind of slapback staccato effect that's missing here... and there's a dirty synth bass part that accompanies the brass that he missed out - otherwise really cool to see it broken down like that... especially impressed that he solved the riddle of the little sequencer mistake...
Touched by the Hand of Dub 12" would be a cool one to see done.
Awwwww👍
yep its all been sampled
That was impressive. I do not get impressed very often.
The high strings that come in at around 18 mins are supposed to be 'C, B, A, F... C, B, A, E' ?
can u do true faith as well?
I often try to deconstruct my favourite tracks, the bad news is I'm not great at it,but the good news is I'm not great at it, I have come up with some great tracks trying to do this
