How I Did It
Tools I Used
I used Propellerheads Reason an Record, no VSTs (i coudn't)
Original Samples
Just the vocal Stems and a 4 Bar Sample of the Acoustic Guitar from the original
Other Notes
At first, I try not to listen to the original, import the vocal track, set the temp and put in a simple drumbeat. Then I start tweaking the tempo till it fells right. Then I try to guess the chords and try to alter them. Thats it. Besides a lot of arranging.
