Katy Perry is a big star at the moment. I liked the melody in her track Wide Awake and thought I could create an interesting alternative version. I managed to acquire the a capella vocal and re-made all of the music from scratch. See what you think, above.

I also used this as an opportunity to get to grips with video editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, matching her video to my version of her track.

If you like this please let me know and maybe you could even tell Katy too then she might authorise it for playback on YouTube! If I can get a bit of publicity I’ll be able to make more and better mixes. Thanks!
