I used to listen to this song over and over and over again, and I didn’t even know what portal was. Because of this song I actually tried the game, and loved it. Today it came back to my mind while replaying Portal 1 and I had to go find it. Thanks for making this and by proxy getting me to play one of the greatest games of all time.
Oh Wow wow! I was able to find this track after all these years, it is unbelievable! I used listen to this track on repeat many many years ago. Today I randomly remembered about it and really wanted to listen to it again but I had no idea what it was, only "because im potato" line. It took me almost an hour talking to chatgpt trying to figure out bits and pieces, from what game it was, etc. I had to dig though so many search results and newer youtube videos, I annoyed the hell out of chatgpt lol. But I finally found it! It is EPIC! Thank you!
sorry about that, dude. definitely was not considering that when I made it. Stuck in an old mindset that didn't really give people the best experience.
Something else you might've missed: The portal gun cannot shoot further than 10 meters or so. The average distance of the gap between the Earth and Moon is about 384,393 km. Plus, it takes about five seconds for a portal to travel nine meters, but it only takes 4 seconds for it to hit the moon.
Oh my god. This remix is absolutely perfect with the sound bites at all the right times, and paired with the video, it's an altogether amazing experience. I can't believe this doesn't have more views! All of the kudos for making this!
I have been watching this video/ listening to this song so much. I love the the changes you did at 1:10 and 2:55. The one at 1:10 makes me jam out so much! The bass lines are so sick! Please continue to make stuff, it's great!
Potato stew is my favorite stew. Very awesome job with this. This is one of my favorite songs from the Portal series, and I enjoyed your remix of it a lot! Keep up the good work ^_^
You know that feel when you find a great song; a song that captures your mind and repeats all day, so that you can dance down the hallways or at work and receive weird looks from peers, but you don't give a damn because you're listening to an awesome song. I have that feel
@JT4NN3R Thanks very much for the feedback. I usually have the same feeling when I'm looking for remixes on youtube. Lot's of variation in quality. Anyway, I'm glad to hear that you liked it. :D
Hey, thanks for listening! Time sure flies. :) Doing pretty good, mostly been working on stuff as Shaping The Silence. Uploading all my music to shapingthesilence.com and designing new MIDI controllers. Anyway, I don't check this channel very often, so I hope you'll check out my new stuff!
you should make more like this, some ppl dont agree with the sound. but i think its perfect we need more music with a chorus, gothic feel. thats the impression i get.
Absolutely love it although I think there should be the "Stay still please" quote right after "Aristotel vs. mashy spike plate". I always imagine that quote is there and while listening to the one with quotes I get this awesome felling that I can't describe.
You know what? I think I will do that. It's going to take a lot of work, though. I just looked at the project file and realized that the mixing is a mess. I've learned a lot in the last 6 months!
@TerminalKeith Sure did! My laptop was lagging so hard when I tried to play Portal 2 with my screen capture software running. I mentioned them in the description, although I should have made a credits reel to give them credit there. . .
@Integ3rs You, my friend, are a true winner! That took much less time than I thought it would. I'll have to think of some sort of prize for you. Perhaps I shouldn't underestimate the internet so. . . Next time, it's going to be crazy!
Wow! This was a huge play on my emotions, man.. the grand chior made me depressed while building suspense, the beat made me want to jam the phyuck out, and the GAMEPLAY!!!!!! OUT OF THIS WORLD... NICE.. I want to rap on this though..
@Addymotion I did play it on a PC, but the best footage I could find online was from a console. I couldn't record it on my computer because of frame rate issues with my screen capture software. I do agree that the PC version is better though.
i could see it now "About the release of the new video game everyone is exited about, to you Bob. Yes hi there Jim, I'm standing outside of Gamestop for the release of the new Portal:AWAKENING, and Jim, the game has all new challenges with multiple new dangers to go through as you wake up in the outside world as Chell and GlaDOS seeks you out for testing once again simply because your the best test subject, really sounds great Jim ,back to you. Thanks Bob,and that was Bob with Portal:AWAKENING!"
I used Logic Studio 9 for producing the track and Final Cut Pro X for editing the video. I didn't use any extra plugins for this track. I just used what came with Logic. I finally bought Massive, though. I can't wait to show you what I'm making with that. :D
@MichaelMacrae56 Thanks for the feedback. I understand what you are talking about and I'll see what I can do to keep that from happening in the future.
@DjSugarKitty95 DOUBLE SMILE!!! :)) I hope to have a new (FREE!) song up next week. It doesn't have anything to do with portal (or even video games), but it's somewhat similar in style to this one so I think you'll love it! :D
The way GLaDOS says "Nobody murdered me. Or put me in a potato." - that line taken out of context... (heck, it's good in context too, but you get the point) It sounds like one of those lines you're given in writing challenges. Anyway, nice remix. Not my favourite genre but I enjoyed it all the same :)
@MetalChocoboWielder Just thought I'd let you know that I think it's a lot more satisfying to pay for software and it really gives me incentive to work hard at learning it. . . but to each his/her own! Also, it's only for Mac OS X, so if you use windows, you'll have to find some other alternative (don't worry, there's plenty; look up "digital audio workstation" on wikipedia for a near-comprehensive list).
@raccoonfishgaming Well, it's an easter egg hidden in one of the scenes with the turrets. You find a turret that start talking to you foreshadowing what's going to happen next and he mentions Prometheus.
This song is absolutely wonderful, however the chills expected during the "drop" never came because there wasn't much of a drop. The beat and other sounds resembled that of one, but there was no bass to punch my emotions. I still love it, and will follow through with the liking, favoriting and downloading of this song, though I'd love it if you did a remake of this song instead of simply using my advice for further songs-- this song deserves it!
This game kind of got to my heart. This is my most favorite game I have ever played in my entire life. Its inspired me to become a computer scientist planning on building a "GLaDOS" when possible. :)
nicely done. not exactly what i was expecting but i really like it. i stand by my comment on the other one. (defective turrets) =3 hope you take my advice. i look forward to it =D

Wow, that's a cool story! Thank you for sharing. ❤️ 11 years ago I could have never imagined the impact this song would have.

I watched this imagining the music on a portal 3 trailer, would be soooooo epic.
but this is a spoiler video ........
What?
Justa GeniricGamer what ?
Spoiler?
Justa GeniricGamer yes. because you see the core of the turrets (the end) and that Wheatly actually is the boss .... not Glados....
i keep forgetting this has a self promo at the end and putting it on playlists. kinda stops the party for a few seconds.
sorry about that, dude. definitely was not considering that when I made it. Stuck in an old mindset that didn't really give people the best experience.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm GLaD to hear that my "turret singing" sounded convincing.
does anyone else love the way glados say potato or is it just me??????
Yep
Potato
poe-tay-toe
yes they do, your reading their comment rn
your not the only one
am I the only one who thought "holy shit" as soon as the moon appeared into view and the portal gun's cross-hairs appeared aiming right for it?
Ryan Adams you are not alone in that thought
Wheatley: hello This Is the Part WHERE I kill You
random text:
THE PART WHERE HE KILLS YOU
Turrets 'singing' in the beginning and the pairing of the music and dialogue in the second part gave me goosebumps... awesome editing job.
Oh my god. This remix is absolutely perfect with the sound bites at all the right times, and paired with the video, it's an altogether amazing experience. I can't believe this doesn't have more views! All of the kudos for making this!
Haha, I love that feel! (and I know it very well) :D I'm glad my work inspired that from you. :)
I have been watching this video/ listening to this song so much. I love the the changes you did at 1:10 and 2:55. The one at 1:10 makes me jam out so much! The bass lines are so sick! Please continue to make stuff, it's great!
Potato stew is my favorite stew.
Very awesome job with this. This is one of my favorite songs from the Portal series, and I enjoyed your remix of it a lot! Keep up the good work ^_^
Dude it was awesome, i really dig your use of portal dialog in it. You're awesome and keep it going.
Will do, good sir! (making music under a new name now, so subscribe to Shaping The Silence)
I love the use of Reconstructing Science with the turret! This song is soooo amazing! nice job ^_^
This is such an intense piece. I've been listening to it on loop for a few days now and each time I find something different to love. Awesome work!
The best part of the game in one song. Great work, i loved this :D
This is awesome! Love the use of Wheatley and GLaDOS' voices - keep up the great work :D
I started listening to this track skeptical but after taking the time i have to say i thoroughly enjoyed it. thumbs up!! :)
I listen to this every chance I get @liberatingpulse keep up the good work!
You're welcome man ^^ keep up the great work and I hope see more of you!
hey man this is great, and thanks for the download now i have something that is good to listen too while i walk to work haha thanks bro!
Nicely done! :D I love this song too. I knew I had to remix it when I heard it. I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
Really nice job man! I really liked it.
Portal forever! Great remix! :-)
You know that feel when you find a great song; a song that captures your mind and repeats all day, so that you can dance down the hallways or at work and receive weird looks from peers, but you don't give a damn because you're listening to an awesome song.
I have that feel
2:54 gotcha! - so subtle - so good
best thing ive ever heard
New favorite! :D
The video made it more awesome. And now I know how the story goes :)
I see what you're talking about. I'll definitely keep that in mind for future remixes.
Oh shit. This is way to good.
Too Good Inded
You're a super happy person.
I love it.
And this song~
Awesome!
love it. portal's amazing
@liberatingpulse Excellent! I love this kind of music
Epic work.
Just danced to this, great stuff.
Oh my god. This is amazing
Wow, 40 hours makes a masterpiece :D
Thank you for the kind comment. :D I'm glad that people can enjoy it despite it's flaws.
I love GLaDOS. One of my favorite characters ever! I'm glad you could appreciate my remix despite it not being in your favorite genre.
Looking forward to it
this...is...the...best....REMIX MADE EVER
Thank you!
@DoctorSVE Thanks for the kind words I put a lot of time into the little details, so I'm glad to hear that someone besides myself appreciates it. :)
A legend in the hearts of portal fans everywhere.
@JT4NN3R Thanks very much for the feedback. I usually have the same feeling when I'm looking for remixes on youtube. Lot's of variation in quality. Anyway, I'm glad to hear that you liked it. :D
Amazing tune, still remember it when I first heard it about 10 years ago, it gave me good chills! Thank you master! How’s life liberating pulse?

Awesome! :)
Wow one of the best dubstep ever
The part were he says YES YES IN YOUR FACE was perfect timing with the music.
Absolutely love it although I think there should be the "Stay still please" quote right after "Aristotel vs. mashy spike plate". I always imagine that quote is there and while listening to the one with quotes I get this awesome felling that I can't describe.
Kool video bro
Tis is FLIPING AWSOME
The video is awesome *O* the song... well... It's awesome too *O*
Glad you like it. I really appreciate hearing your feedback!
You know what? I think I will do that. It's going to take a lot of work, though. I just looked at the project file and realized that the mixing is a mess. I've learned a lot in the last 6 months!
I wish you the best of luck, good sir!
i didnt have a dubstep pun so i droped it
@TerminalKeith Sure did! My laptop was lagging so hard when I tried to play Portal 2 with my screen capture software running. I mentioned them in the description, although I should have made a credits reel to give them credit there. . .
Yeah, I totally understand what you're saying. This was a really ambitious project for me back when I made it, but I wish I had made the drop heavier.
This is badass
*clop* Thanks bro! :D
@Integ3rs You, my friend, are a true winner! That took much less time than I thought it would. I'll have to think of some sort of prize for you. Perhaps I shouldn't underestimate the internet so. . . Next time, it's going to be crazy!
Well done ma'am or sir.
My ears are addicted to this song
The epicness level is... OVER 9000
@MetalChocoboWielder lol, I use Logic Pro 9 with a very minimal set of 3rd party plugins (Kratos Maximizer and Celemony Melodyne)
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! This was a huge play on my emotions, man.. the grand chior made me depressed while building suspense, the beat made me want to jam the phyuck out, and the GAMEPLAY!!!!!! OUT OF THIS WORLD... NICE.. I want to rap on this though..
@Addymotion
I did play it on a PC, but the best footage I could find online was from a console. I couldn't record it on my computer because of frame rate issues with my screen capture software. I do agree that the PC version is better though.
Maybe I'll add that in when I remaster this song. Thanks for the suggestion!
Thank you! :D
danke, much appreciated! i just wish someone with rights to portal would read the comments like these and actually make a third..
"Don't think about it. Don't think about it. Don't think about it."
Oh man the this is the part that he kills us sent me nostalgia to my first playtrough
i could see it now "About the release of the new video game everyone is exited about, to you Bob. Yes hi there Jim, I'm standing outside of Gamestop for the release of the new Portal:AWAKENING, and Jim, the game has all new challenges with multiple new dangers to go through as you wake up in the outside world as Chell and GlaDOS seeks you out for testing once again simply because your the best test subject, really sounds great Jim ,back to you.

omg this is epic
WHY DO I ENJOY LISTENING TO THIS!!! OTL
@XIIOniOokamiXII I probably won't be updating this song any more, but I'll keep your advice in mind for future tracks! Thanks!
AWESOME
.... holy... holy fuk dude... goose bumps...
shhittttt this is awesome.
@DjSugarKitty95 DOUBLE SMILE!!! :)) I hope to have a new (FREE!) song up next week. It doesn't have anything to do with portal (or even video games), but it's somewhat similar in style to this one so I think you'll love it! :D
ur awesome!
I'm working on an EP right now and it should be out by August. :D I'll upload a video when it's ready!
awe, thanks. I appreciate the kind words. :)
The way GLaDOS says "Nobody murdered me. Or put me in a potato." - that line taken out of context... (heck, it's good in context too, but you get the point)
It sounds like one of those lines you're given in writing challenges.
Anyway, nice remix. Not my favourite genre but I enjoyed it all the same :)
