The Remembering Game

[ A Peter Gabriel's song (Games Without Frontiers) remixed by Andrea Riderelli ]



download



i would like to share with you some thoughts about (my) music, so i will start with the cover of "games without frontiers"


first of all, its name is "the remembering game"...


this is a new remix of my second cover of a pg song ( more on realworldremixed ).


i decided for using only vocal lines and basic harmonies, using a classic string quartet (2 vlns, 1 vla, 1 vcl) and a woodwind quartet (flute, oboe, clarinet and bass clarinet). all of this in an typical "idefix" way!


this time, for a very different remix from the other one "should i be one of you?..." ( realworldremixed ), the idea derived from an "aching nostalgia" feeling i had often listening to the original tune.


this is a very personal, intimate and inner way to feel what our past times can awake from our "secret world". btw, you can consider this one as a "psychological game without frontiers". from this feeling, i choose to downbeat the tempo from 96 to 80 bmp and to dress all that in a chamber music mood.


this is, here and there, also a "hommage" to early 1970's music lovers (maybe you can recognize some direct or not-so-direct quotes; good luck!)

many thanks to toni armetta helping me to resolve and inspiring some timbral ideas and issues!


enjoy my tune, but don't forget to listen to the "not one of us" cover from me too! ( realworldremixed )


saluti,


andrea [ aka "idefix" aka "dersklerosenkavalier" ] riderelli.

"Andrea, there is no discussion about your musical skills ths remebering feeling is on point.
I see PG getting old drinking, drinking red wine and you made the score. Beautiful.

I simply miss the political statement.

All the Best

"Fantastico! I've dug every version I've heard on here. The Diversity of Creativity really Shines! Perhaps Peter will put out a Benefit GAMES CD, with All the versions on it, you know to Stop All the Manufactured Wars, or something more positive, help the children maimed by land mines, or something. I think that would be VERY COOL, Indeed! Great composition!
Namaste,
