Justin Bieber 800% Slower, Do you hear it?

So, you're saying that if you take something and change it 800% its going to be different? And maybe creepier?

You're right! That IS news!

interesting how we make biases on the content of something just based on an arbitrary label... not good or bad necessarily, just interesting.

It's also interesting how some people here are trying to "downplay" this topic because it's not "special," i.e. "anyone can do this."

If you like it, then like it. If you don't then don't. And if you are making judgements about it without actually listening to it, well... yeah.

My opinion: I love it, and am grateful to have found this!
What do I hear: Beauty which I did not even know existed.

Thanks OP!

~~peace

What the hell is wrong with American yutes these days?

Doesn't anyone play music backwards anymore?

All I hear is a song by JB I actually enjoy, something previously unthinkable to me. So clearly, this is an example of mind control, demonic soul infiltration, and thrall programming. I am now hopelessly lost. Curse whoever created this!

(The above is not serious.)

In all seriousness though, it reminds me of the soundtrack to the film Ink.

This sounds like Nibiru meets Stravinsky...
Oh and move this to BTS.

ok maybe im crazy but this is honestly making me feel sick, my head is pounding and joints are aching and my stomach is upset, these could all be normal but with the sudden onset after i started this song, i can only think of one thing to blame. i hope im just crazy

thank you and good day night depending on your location in this universe.

And just for the record, ANYTHING slowed down 800% will sound like evil, Satanic Illuminati psychobabble.

It's time stretched, not pitch-shifted, so it's not like playing a 33 1/3 at 16. A different effect altogether.

And that changes matters how? It's still gonna sound like pure evil.

Backwards is the only way i worship Satan!!

Slowed 800% is for worshiping... ummm. I got nothing.

Anyone can. Just get some time/pitch stretch software and timestretch some songs!

In another thread, someone mentioned that knowledge can be a burden and now I know who Justin Bieber is. Methinks the two art related. Synchronicity.

The point is, the thread is here to be tampered with.

I had actually escaped listening to anything by this kid until you just made me way too curious!

I thought it sounded very angel/alienish. What you might hear if you were at a sky show. It was very pretty but it also made me feel tired.

Interesting observation...listening to it made my cats very nervous. They were just quietly looking out the window and when it started playing they got all agitated and started running around. When I turned it off they just sort of plopped down and felt the need for a good clean! When I turned it on again they got agitated again but not like the first time.

Thanks for posting this!

It sounded to me a little more angelic choirish or haunted than the demonic Satan effect produced by also dropping the pitch.

Maybe I should just listen to it. Thing is, I'm scared that I'd be wasting my time, and dedicating my ears to pure aural queerdom.

BookMark, ...

Very calming, other worldly.

I guess you have to click the link to find out.

Good find Voodoo!

I agree with most other posters that he sounds waaay better 800% slower.

I decided top download the program (Paul's Extreme Sound Stretch) and noticed that it seems to include an option to add binaural beats to your stretched tracks.





I also agree that it reminds me of binaural beats and can be quite overwhelming in places.

Maybe the creator of this track added binaurals? seems more plausable given the abbove than them already being added when the original track was produced.

Thats the only possible conspiracy I see here, after all think how many people throughout the world have listened to this with all the attention it's getting...hmmm...

That’s really neat! Many thanks to the OP!

I agree it does remind me a bit of Sigur Ros. I can’t stand Justin Beiber’s music either, but I think this is pretty wicked.

Well, regardless as to what it was the OP heard, I'm just happy to hear of a software that can do such a great job of stretching music that's also a freebie!

Agreed, seems no aliasing as far I can tell. As for the OP's question, which there wasn't one. Sure beats the hell out of listening to it at normal speed.



But on second thought you can't polish a poop. And won't be listening to this again.

I don't want to post my thoughts on this until there has been some input from others.

Not everyone has the time to listen to the song so can you at least post why you have made the thread?

That's not too much to ask is it?

NOt everyone has the time to listen to the song, but they have enough time to sit here and read every comment? lol
umm ok...

It's very angelic. My wife said it reminded her of music in her dreams. It's the very literal version of what you would expect to hear in Heaven... at least according to the movies.

I let it play while I read the thread. It's still playing, and I have to agree with Dr. UAE -- it sounds like a prelude to an Enigma song.

It's etherial, and it sounds like songs of the Sea, to me, like how sirens would sound, just before they lured your ship into being dashed upon the rocks.

It's absolutely my favorite JB treatment ever. I could imagine this as the replacement background tune for "Gladiator".

There are parts of it that seem pretty mournful, sad, melocholy and others that just seem e-vile.

Okay, more than ten minutes. I've paid my thread dues. Enough.
I'm not buying this on iTunes.
