We doubt that Gothic Wednesday would have agreed to dance to David Guetta’s electro. However, the French DJ has just reinvented the song his own way. bloody mary by Lady Gaga, a 2011 title that meets a new youth thanks to the Netflix series.
The author of planetary tubes as Money Where Love Do not Let Me Go posted a video to TikTok on Thursday documenting his process for turning the original song’s pop into a title. dancing.
25th place worldwide on Deezer
Armed with a simple laptop and a keyboard, he changes the beat, speeds up the tempo, adds a pad to create a “mellow techno vibe”, mixes the song with another… and voila. In the comments, many netizens ask him to release this new version.
After the premiere on November 23 on Netflix of Wednesday, a series focused on the eldest daughter of the Addams family, many fans recreated on TikTok a dance in which the character indulges in one of the episodes.
