The Beatles - Now And Then (1964 Version) [AI]

NEW video of the full song as-recorded BEFORE I added any A.I.: Making of video showing how I made this: This recording contains no samples of other recordings. The music and vocals were performed and recorded by a real live human, and then the lead vocals I sang were then run through A.I. filters to replicate the tones of Paul, John, and George’s voices. After hearing the final Beatles song “Now And Then” last week, I was immediately inspired to record a cover, specifically taking inspiration from the Hard Day’s Night era. I released my version the next day. Over the weekend though, curiosity got the best of me, and I wondered what my 1960s arrangement would sound like with John and Paul’s voices. The A.I. at first was a little wonky (at best), but after trying a few more fresh vocal takes doing my best Paul, John and George impersonations, adding some more musical parts, and giving the whole song a more authentic mid-60s mix, I had something that I thought was worth sharing. I know A.I. can be a controversial topic, but I tried to stay as true as possible to what John, Paul, and George would sound like if John brought this song to the band a decade earlier. Hopefully you enjoy this for what it is, a fun little “what if” companion piece to the beautiful haunting version The Beatles released last week.

Liam and Noel Gallagher sharing vocal duties on a vintage Oasis style version of “Now And Then”… I also just posted my “1964 Beatles Mix“ with my own vocals on Bandcamp, if you want to check out what it sounded like before any A.I. was involved…
