Portland Cello Project Covering Kanye West "All of the Lights" (DOPE)

Now that's what's up!  So sick!  I don't care if you like Kanye West's music or not but you have to admit that an orchestra deciding to cover one of his songs brings a little more credibility to his music making abilities.  "All of the Lights" was created entirely from scratch without the use of any samples so that is why this works so well.  

The orchestra absolutely kicked ass on their rendition of this song.  It was original enough to be considered their own remix of sorts but it still stayed true to the original and sounded just like it would if you were to strip the beat away.  Very impressive.

Here's the original version of "All of the Lights" from Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album.  It's definitely one of the most impressive and deepest songs he's ever made.


This is the extended instrumental version which has an intro that sounds a lot more like the orchestra's rendition:
