Backstory
The story of ”No” starts in 2013 as a fun experiment, without any serious intentions. It was part of a ”potentially developable songs” collection because it could be refined further. However, it was released in its nearly complete form, serving as a finished piece until further improvements. Playing with words and sentences, it became ”No”, as for ”Nothing at all”.
The Remix
The remix of ”No” explores new sonic territories while keeping elements from the original track. Now at 135 BPM, it’s slightly slower than the original’s 140 BPM, moving it closer to house music. It blends softer pop-ish elements and a lighter form of EDM, hovering near techno but not quite. This version demonstrates the personal artistic growth with sophisticated production tools and a polished sound, making the genre hard to define due to the innovative blend and experimentation with new sounds.
It has also been enhanced with new vocal recordings, made more listener-friendly with the help of AI tools such as Audimee and ElevenLabs. The fresh direction lies in this innovative blending of genres and the artist’s willingness to experiment with new sounds, making it difficult to define the genre precisely.
