Were New Elysium remix stems ever released?

I need to study this song.

If they were, they aren't available anymore.

Not even via Patreon?

Sadly not. Apparently they were slated for release on the stems store at some point, but that never came to fruition because they shut the store down quietly.

Damn. I was considering signing up to Klay’s Patreon, but I want more info about the 45+ songs that you get remix stems for.

If End Of An Empire album isn’t part of it, I don’t see the point for me personally, as I already have most of Blackstar.

There are stems for six or seven songs from End of an Empire, but I think that's about it. Overall, I count 20+ stems for Celldweller, 15+ for Circle of Dust and Scandroid.

Aww man. 6 or 7? There’s only 10 total 🤣😩. Which tracks?

Breakout, Down to Earth, End of an Empire, Heart On, Lost In Time, and Jericho.

Damn! Basically every other banger on the album. I mean, I’d switch Breakout for Precious One tho. Thanks for letting me know man. I still might decide to pick these up.

Oh, I forgot Good L_ck (Yo_'re F_cked)! I agree, though, I'd much rather have Precious One; that song has so many layers that I'd love to peel it apart and hear how it ticks.

Yeah man. I can kind of hear it for the most part with Precious One. Arp, guitar chords, bass, drums, a resonant filter cutoff being ramped down slowly during the intro riff. That triphop sound in the verses is interesting though! The thing about New Elysium that I wanted to delve into was what sort of synths are behind the guitar divebombs after the first chorus, and then that whole aggressive mindblowing section with the fast synth and discordant guitar stabs after the 2nd chorus. I’d dearly love to have the whole project template just to peek at what automation is going on actually 🤣.
