Mesck547 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I like this preview. Instrumental sounds much better than the live version so far. I belive you can hear some more vocals which is awseome. Can't wait to hear the final product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broman Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Did they mute Chester? All I hear is Shinoda singing. I hope you realize Chester and Mike both sing in harmony throughout the entire track except for Chester's leading vocals in the chorus, but throughout the whole track, its evident that Chester can be heard much clearer than Mike. Just gonna go ahead and say your response is a tad silly. Regardless, Chester is busy with STP so he'll probably be part of the video shoot in the following days. Nothing else to it.

This is why I said ''idiot comments''. Obviously Chester is in the song and we already knew that Mike and Chester sing on it together. And Chester could very well be in the music video too.

Broman Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) In the clip it sounds like Mike is doing lead vocals. Have to disagree there. I'm listening to it again and I can absolutely tell the vocals apart. It sounds like Chester did at least two sets of harmonies, while Mike seems to have done one and probably also did the pitch increased set Go to 4:38 for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-3ixuZmsgM Those vocals appear to have vocoder effects just like ALTNC.

Geki Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) How can you not hear Chester in that clip? I definitely can, it's very distinct. I can easily tell Mike and Chester's parts apart, Chester is doing a lot more singing based off of this clip alone. This song sounds so good... even better than the live remix version thing we have heard. It's definitely more EDMish but that was expected and not a bad thing because I like EDM. BTW, isn't that Chester that walks in at around 40 seconds or so? I think it is. He will probably be in the music video for sure then.

GlassCastles Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 So, there's definitely another vocal part in the song that we didn't hear in the live mashup. Pretty interested in hearing the whole thing. The preview didn't really change my stance on the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Chester only had today to shoot the video. STP was still rehearsing today so he probably did the video then rehearsed. The tour starts tomorrow in Seattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesper Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 The good thing is that Steve said he tried experimenting with drops in the song but he ended up not using them for the final product because it took away from the dark feel of the song. This live version is just a mash-up with some R3Hab song or something. I agree that the drops in the live track are pretty typical and cheesy. I really love Chester's vocals here and I think the lyrics are cool, that's why I like this. Thanks for the info. I am ready to hear the full song next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'm saying along with OrangeJZE is how these Chester vocals (0:19) featured on the choruses of the track played by Aoki on these recent festivals aren't in the periscope preview anymore. I'm guessing they are saving them for the last chorus, if at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I was under the impression that these live versions are meant to be a teaser of sorts for the real thing. He might have just muted the lead vocals for that part of the song, it doesn't mean they won't be in the studio version. It's similar to how the live version has drops in it, but the studio version is confirmed to not have any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyleronlplive Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Just watched the periscope videos and even though they use the same part multiple times, I kinda like it so far. I hope the part with Mike singing "don't you hold your breath / cause I'm not coming down" is the bridge because it would be great after the parts with just Chester. And I'm going to make a prediction for this: the song is going to be 90% Steve, Mike, and Chester. I'm only giving the rest of the members the 10% benefit of the doubt because at 5:13, there's no way that the song could be that repetitive without some sort of middle section with different instrumentation.

Geki Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Chester only had today to shoot the video. STP was still rehearsing today so he probably did the video then rehearsed. The tour starts tomorrow in Seattle. Chester can fly in or do whatever needed even when he is on tour with STP. They have done stuff like that all the time. LP even made We Made It during their 2007 tour in Asia in the middle of the night. Lol. But yeah, he probably already did his music video appearance. He might not even be in the music video, but it would be very strange if he wasn't considering he does a majority of the vocals on the song.
