Did you also binge the entire season of Netflix’s Stranger Things 2 over the weekend? SURVIVE‘s ’80s style synthesised soundtrack once again shimmers brilliantly throughout, adding that extra element of nostalgia for viewers and synth freaks alike. To celebrate, we’ve built a FREE Ableton Live project for you featuring the two main building blocks of the Stranger Things theme – the arpeggio and bassline.
Obviously this isn’t a full recreation of the theme, there’s alot more going on than just the arp and bassline in the track, but it’s a pretty good starting point if you wanted to have a crack at making a remix, or if you’re just keen to take a look at the structure. We also dialed in some pretty decent approximations of vintage synths using Live’s native ‘Analog’ instrument – no third party plug-ins were used in this project.
