@jamieturton666 I've been dabbling in music production since the pandemic and one of my long term projects is making orchestral coversof songs or using those sounds in genres they're generally uncommon.
I cant articulate what this means to me at this moment in my life. Im getting ready to say goodbye to someone for what may be an indefinite duration. The limerance and attachment i have felt has held me back and while i may be ready to move on there is still this crippling dread of doing so, but i know i will be okay. Thank you for taking the time to make this piece even more masterful
It sounds like you've had to make some very tough decisions and are about to endure the results of those decisions. Moving forward can sometimes be hard but you'll be fine as long as stay focussed and use your time wisely. Sometimes the hardest decisions help us grow and have a new appreciation of things so I'm sure you will be fine in time. Thank you for taking the time to listen and thank you for your comment - I hope the future is fruitful for you.
You have an amazing talent taking these masterpieces and somehow making them even better. Hats off to you sir please bless us with more Sleep Token songs.
Thank you Extremeraze! I really enjoyed this one what with it being just a harmonized voice line, gives the strings some really nice space to breathe 🙂 thanks for listening!
I am GUTTED. Sleep Token makes me ugly sob 10¹⁰. Whenever I feel like I *really* need to do some self-flaggelation, I come to your channel. Sobs 10³⁰ 😭😭 Thank you for doing important work, Jamie ... Not all heroes wear capes 🙌🏻💚💙
Hi again Menm! I’m happy you enjoy my additions! Kowing these works bring a little extra joy into people’s lives is rewarding 🖤 so thank you for listening - you and everyone else that enjoys my channel are the real heroes.. after all - what would a composer be without their audience? 🖤
@@jamieturton666 🥹🥹 You're too kind. You're doing all the hard, amazing work. We have the easy task of basking in and surrounding ourselves in your beautiful creations. 💚💙🖤🖤
I enjoy doing these so much it could never feel like ‘work’. I’m learning so much by creating these and I enjoy every second of it.. I’m just very glad I can share them with other people 🖤
Hey Arn! Yeah, I want to try and turn my hand to lots of angles to diversify my composition and be able to confidently approach any song. There is an Opeth song that was suggested to me a while ago which I will be tackling the same kind of way due to it leaving the orchestra exposed, so should be interesting :) Thanks again for your continued support my dude!
@@jamieturton666 It’s awesome hearing your orchestration more forward in the mix. I have appreciate your more subtle approach to other songs, but you really should continue doing more orchestra-forward mixes as well. I’m sure you’re sick of me suggesting Gojira songs but unfortunately for you they’re my favorite band haha, but i’d love to hear your take on Born in Winter (I know I already asked for Where Dragons Dwell but yeah haha)
@@jamieturton666 After listening to this a couple more times I feel like you actually completed the song. This was a song by Sleep Token that kinda felt unfinished to me. But your version doesn't give me that feeling, and I enjoy it so much more than the original. You really are awesome at this!
@@Arn._. Well there will be some more orchestra oriented content coming soon enough and even some orchestra only tracks. I'll never get sick of suggestions man! I like Gojira too so it really isn't a problem! :D I'll put her on the list!
@@Arn._. Thank you man, that is a true compliment! I honestly felt that this track was a great opportunity to fully expand as it had a lot of space. It was fun using dynamics on the softer end of the spectrum for a change too. Super glad you enjoyed it!
Welcome back Michael! I'm glad you enjoyed it - It was such a nice change of pace and a lot of fun to orchestrate! Thank you for your continued support, it means a lot!
@@lyricnoel we're currently wondering if we could tune your hand in mine with strings from Friday night lights movie to the same key as this and okay them together
Welcome back Jake! Thank you my dude, so glad you enjoy my additions. I was actually listening to Higher the other evening and thought it would be a good track to orchestrate... so it's on the list! :D
@@jamieturton666 I heard this song in its original version for the first time yesterday and it hasn't let me go since then. Unfortunately, I can't really contribute to the song as a drummer. But you don't have to with this song. Found your version like the cherry on top. Good job
This is absolutely phenomenal, and I wish more of this kind of music was created in this era. I think a 15-20% slowed and pushing the vocals back into the mix would have really sent this though - really feeling the weight of the words paired with the bigger orchestra sound would have made this a forever repeat for me. Edit: doing this with the custom playback - 10-15 is actually perfect.
Hi Jax! I’m glad you liked this one! I tend not to alter the tempo of the tracks and try to meld the orchestra in with what’s provided by the band (granted in this case isn’t much!) I may release a deeper orchestral version of this without the vocals at some point too though by the end of the year. Thanks for listening!
@@jamieturton666 that's totally fair! It does change the feeling from the original if timing changes are used. I respect the work you put into it though! Would love to hear the second version.
This song (and video) kill me every time I hear it (multiple times a day) but there’s so much space and you filled it beautifully without overpowering or distracting from the message! 🖤
Thank you again Tobii - I try to enhance the sonic fingerprint of the songs chosen, I feel it unjustified to detract from the musical image the bands provide, after all, that is what makes these bands so popular. I very much appreciate your support
Thank you Chiron! I wanted to do something that exposes the orchestra a little more and play with some dynamics! Thank you for listening and thank you for the comment!
Jesus Christ knocked this out of the park too Mr Turton…Im curious what your original works are like. If you can do this with metal bands works, i can only imagine the work put into original works.
Thank you Kydesl! I enjoyed the negative space that was provided by this track, it gave me the space to deliver something dynamically pleasing 🙂 Well, you may hear some of my original works soon as I’ve been working on a few things so I hope I don’t disappoint! Thank you for listening and I really appreciate the comment!
This makes me happy knowing other people get enjoyment from hearing these - anything extra that brings a little joy into life is always welcomed in my opinion 🖤
Hello! I love this arrangement! Really really nicely done! I just recently discovered this band and can’t get enough! Just curious if you offer these arrangements for purchase without vocal tracks? Just orchestra accompaniment?
Hi Zuzana! I’m happy you enjoyed this one - it’s so simple but so deep and meaningful. In regards to your query; I’ve never really thought about it. I guess it depends on what capacity they would be used for once purchased. Also I will say that a lot of the accompaniments don’t sound much like the original songs as I try to avoid doubling notes and melodies the band are already playing. I’d be willing to consider though for sure 🙂
@@jamieturton666 yes I agree 100% it’s one of my most favorite songs of their. I can hear the avoidance of doubling notes and I love it. I would be interested in purchasing track without vocals. Sometimes I record cello covers of my favorite songs and use for social media. I usually record just a little piece of it. Maybe a verse and chorus. Just for fun. I would be covering the vocals on cello or at least try my best :) Of course the credit for orchestra backing track would go to you for sure. I found you on IG so it should be easy to tag you. Let me know if it’s an option. Thank you so much
Ah that sounds nice! Yes I’m sure we can come to an agreement! If you’d like to DM me on IG we can talk more about it 🖤 look forward to hearing from you!
Hey Berty! Hope you're keeping well! I need to keep upping my game to get to where I would like to be, With each track I'm learning more about what works and what is effective given the circumstances... and I'm nerding out over tuition videos at the moment too so hopefully I can continue to up my game :) Thank you for your support man, it means a lot!
Hey! So the tempo for this track isn’t consistent - it hovers around 140bpm, I believe it starts at 142 and changes frequently between 136 and 144 throughout the song. I hope this helps!
Jamie, Just found your stuff and have sinking deep into the rabbit hole. Amazing work! I'm curious, what's your set up for orchestration? What DAW, Midi controller etc do you use? I've been shopping around and might get a M audio hammer 88 pro.
Hi Sharpie! I’m happy you’re enjoying these works! My setup is pretty simple - I’m using cubase 12, an Alesis VI49 keyboard and a whole bunch of Spitfire libraries! Thanks for listening!
Hi Krisolis - I use a combination of Spitfire libraries (Albion one, symphonic woodwind, brass and strings) with Zimmer percussion and a bunch of seperate pit percussion. I will be making a change soon though as I recently purchased the Spitfire BBC Symphony Orchestra Professional so all the strings, woodwind, brass and some of the percussion with be replaced 🖤 thank you for listening and thanks for the comment!
Hi again Ehgirl! I just had to accompany this one with some strings and brass at the end - it was a lot of fun working on such an exposed song! Glad you enjoyed it!
Well you’re in an extremely small minority that share that opinion but if that’s your opinion there’s no changing that. Thanks for the listen either way!
STOP IT IM GONNA CRY
🙏🏻🖤
I just heard this song for the first time 15 minutes ago. My first reaction was how good this would sound with strings. I'm so glad this exists
Hi Renegade! I’m shocked that you found my rendition so quickly after discovering the original! Thank you for giving my rendition a chance!

If you ever do missing limbs, I’m going to sob my *FREAKING* eyes out😭
Well it's on the list so it'll be coming soon! Thank you for your comment
YES MISSING LIMBS PLEASE!!!!!!
YASSSSS ❤️
In case you don't know they did it and I don't think I will ever recover
You have an amazing talent taking these masterpieces and somehow making them even better. Hats off to you sir please bless us with more Sleep Token songs.
Thank you Manny, I really appreciate it! The list is dominated with Sleep Token and Ghost tracks so there will be plenty more! 🙏🏻🖤
You have taken two of my favorite musical genres and mixed them so perfectly, the only way to describe this is just bliss.
Thank you Extremeraze! I really enjoyed this one what with it being just a harmonized voice line, gives the strings some really nice space to breathe 🙂 thanks for listening!

WORSHIP.
Thank you Noble! I upload every Sunday 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed the additions! 🙏🏻🖤
This is great. If I watched a ST concert like this IRL, I’d 100% be sobbing. No doubt. 🫶🏻
Thank you Bambi! Lets hope that they do a show at some point with an orchestra, I think that would be a real game changer!
This took my breath away. Absolutely stunning!!! Fantastic job.
Welcome back Michael! I'm glad you enjoyed it - It was such a nice change of pace and a lot of fun to orchestrate! Thank you for your continued support, it means a lot!
I didn't think this song could actually get more beautiful. I was SO wrong. Amazing work!
So much negative space to work with is a lot of fun too! I’m glad you enjoyed the additions 🖤
My husband and I danced to this at our wedding this is so beautiful I’m actually crying right now.🫶
That’s awesome! I’m glad you enjoyed this rendition! 🖤
Me and my fiance are strongly considering the same. I just wish there were a longer build up before the singing comes in
@@Vikinghippiepastor you could do the love you want we danced to that one too 🖤
@@lyricnoel that's also a good one, thank you!
@@lyricnoel we're currently wondering if we could tune your hand in mine with strings from Friday night lights movie to the same key as this and okay them together
ah Jamie my friend, you just simply have such a magical touch to Sleep Token songs!
Would love to see you work your touch on Higher by these guys too!
Welcome back Jake! Thank you my dude, so glad you enjoy my additions.
I was actually listening to Higher the other evening and thought it would be a good track to orchestrate... so it's on the list! :D
@@jamieturton666 extremely glad to hear! i look forward to it!!!
Goosebumps everywhere! Love it

You’ll find that with ST tracks - they stick with you for a while 🙂 appreciate it man, hope to deliver more like this in the future!
You just got a new a follower, can’t wait to hear more Sleep Token songs with your talent on them.
Welcome to the channel MrBrightside! There may or may not be another Sleep Token track coming on Sunday ;)
This is stunning. Thank you so much.
Welcome back Pixlate! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for listening and thank you for your comment

Could you possibly do a cover on Jaws?
Thank you Jacob! Thank you for listening! I will put jaws on the ever growing list! :D
I already thought this would be a great wedding song but you just made it better
Thank you Caleb! I really enjoyed how open this track was for additions!

This is beautiful!

Thank you for listening Dan! Glad you enjoyed it! 🖤
Wow! I just found this. What a lucky person I am! Moving is an understatement.
Hi Ken! The simplicity of this track left so much negative space to play with and let the song breathe 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed it!
chills.
🥶🖤
Not to upset anyone but this for me is even better than the original, which i absolutely adore ❤
Stunning, honestly just stunning
This makes me happy knowing other people get enjoyment from hearing these - anything extra that brings a little joy into life is always welcomed in my opinion 🖤
@@jamieturton666 Brought great joy, a few tears when I first heard it, but the right kind of tears 🙂
That’s good then! 🙂 thanks again - I really appreciate the comment.
Freaking amazing … absolutely gold
The room to work with here was very nice! Thank you for listening!
Very beautiful.
The simplistic nature of this one was a vibe!
So ethereal
I enjoy the space the vocal track provides in this 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed it 🖤
Simply amazing Jamie
I’m happy you enjoyed it! 🖤
GOD BLESS U FOR MAKING ALL THIS
Thank you DeepMark! I’m glad you enjoy this rendition!
I just love it, it means different things to everybody❤❤❤
Thank you Judi! I’m glad you like my additions! Thank you also for listening and for the comment 🖤
Fantastic extension of the original
Thank you Gabe - I try to just support the identity of the band so I enjoy your use of ‘extension’ 🖤 thank you for listening!
That was beautiful
Thank you Xicknafairous! Happy that you enjoyed it :)
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO ❤❤❤
🖤🙏🏻🖤
Took my breath away

This is so beautiful, my wife and I want to play this at our vow renewal. I choke up every listen.
That’s very cute that you would want to play this rendition at your vow renewal 🖤 I hope it goes well!

I did! :D I hope it was everything you hoped it would be!
@@jamieturton666IT IS! ❤️❤️
Great job.
Thank you Eos!

This is amazing! Would you be able to provide the instrumental only for a vocal cover? I'll give you the credits
Hi Henry! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I don't normally release my works.
bro i was gonna try make a full band cover of this but WTF IS THE BPM 😭😭 idk how you did this
Hey! So the tempo for this track isn’t consistent - it hovers around 140bpm, I believe it starts at 142 and changes frequently between 136 and 144 throughout the song. I hope this helps!
Can you do Shelter with Orchestra?
Hey Hannes! I’ll put that on the list for you!
If you do rain next, I will ascend to a higher plain. 😂
Hi Space! Rain is on the list :D not sure when it'll be done though! But it will eventually!

What vst are u using, if i can ask😊 Epic music btw

Oh my gah 😩 😢
Hi again Ehgirl! I just had to accompany this one with some strings and brass at the end - it was a lot of fun working on such an exposed song! Glad you enjoyed it!
Not going to lie, the music really is a buzz kill from the emotions of the regular song..
Well you’re in an extremely small minority that share that opinion but if that’s your opinion there’s no changing that. Thanks for the listen either way!
It's better without it. It doesn't go with the music even remotely.
😂 ok! You know there’s no music in the original track right?
Of course. The original is perfect and doesn't need any instrumental added to it.
This version is 100 better lol
