The full remake, played through in Ableton Live.

Inside the project

Beach House’s Space Song, from their 2015 album Depression Cherry, combines layered keyboards, ascending arpeggios and slide guitar with a hazy, reverb-heavy production style. Its blend of dream pop, warm synth textures and understated percussion helped the track find a new audience years after its release.

This Ableton Live remake recreates the arrangement with Arturia Prophet-5 V and Mini V4, layered organ sounds from B3 V, and ascending arpeggios programmed with Ableton’s Arpeggiator. The project also includes octave-doubled lap steel guitar, bass guitar and drum machine samples.

Each remake comes as two ZIP downloads: the full Ableton Live project with every track frozen, and multitrack WAV stems for every audio track with MIDI files for every MIDI part.
