Description

This is an RVC drum model trained using Dream-High's Pytorch implementation of "RMVPE: A Robust Model for Vocal Pitch Estimation in Polyphonic Music" and the BeatzForge pretrain on the drum stem of "Song 2", which is a song by English rock band Blur. The song is the second song on their eponymous fifth studio album. Released physically on 7 April 1997, "Song 2" peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart, number four on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart, and number six on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart (now called the Alternative Airplay chart). At the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards, "Song 2" was nominated for Best Group Video, and Best Alternative Video.[1] At the 1998 Brit Awards, the song was nominated for Best British Single, and Best British Video.[2] In 1998, BBC Radio 1 listeners voted "Song 2" the 15th Best Track Ever.[3] In 2011, NME placed it number 79 on its list "150 Best Tracks of the Past 15 Years". According to Graham Coxon, "Song 2" was intended to be a joke on the record company.[5] Damon Albarn had recorded an acoustic demo of the song which was slower but featured the song's distinctive "woo-hoo" chorus in whistle form. Coxon then suggested that they pump up the speed and perform the song loudly, with Coxon deliberately seeking out an amateurish guitar sound.[6] From there, Coxon told Albarn to tell the record company that they wanted to release the song as a single to "blow the flipping record labels' heads off".[5] To Coxon's surprise, record executives reacted positively. When asked if the band had any idea of the song's commercial appeal, Coxon replied, "We'd just thought it was way too extreme".[5] The track was originally nicknamed "Song 2" as a working title which represented its slot in the tracklist, but the name stuck.[7] The song is two minutes and two seconds long, with two verses, two choruses and a hook featuring Albarn yelling "woo-hoo!" as the distorted bass comes in. It is the second song on Blur's self-titled album, as well as Blur: The Best Of, and was the second single released from the former album.[8] Some writers have stated that the song is intended to be a parody of the grunge genre,[8][9] while others state that it was a parody of radio hits and the music industry with a punk rock chorus.[10] Musically, the song has been labelled alternative rock,[11][12] punk rock,[13] indie rock,[14] and Britpop.[15] PopMatters described the song as a "[pastiche] [of] Seattle grunge and grubby lo-fi indie rock".[16] Rolling Stone Australia called it "frankly grunge-flavoured".[17] RVC drum models work like RVC voice models, except the purpose of RVC drum models is to change the sounds of one drumkit into that of another.
