0:00:42 > 0:00:45- First up, here's Kizzy Crawford - performing Caru Ti.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- More from Kizzy Crawford later.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57- Right, I'm here in Monnow Valley - in Monmouthshire.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01- Let's see who's in the studio - reinterpreting a classic this week.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- The three taking on the task - this week are Mr Huw...
0:05:09 > 0:05:11- ..Osh Candelas...
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- ..and Eilir Pierce.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- A small four-track recorder, - in case they're stuck.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- In case they don't have - enough channels.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- If they don't listen to me, - I can record myself in the toilet.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Osh, Huw, Eilir. Everyone alright? - Welcome to Monnow Valley.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- You can choose from three songs - in this envelope.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45- You decide which one to do and you - have complete artistic freedom...
0:05:45 > 0:05:49- ..in terms of what you decide to do - with the song.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53- So all that's left for me to do - is give you this.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- OK, Eilir, finish your banana first.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Which one do you think?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Just open it, yes?
0:06:02 > 0:06:03- Go on.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- By MC Mabon originally, - and the choice is...
0:06:08 > 0:06:12- ..Tamed I Aros Pryd, Myddyffycys - Yn Bob Man, a Tymheredd Yn Y Gwres.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14- What's our first impressions?
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- I've played two of them before, - anyway.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22- You've played them - but not recorded them.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- So you know the chords. - That's handy.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Can you sing Tamed I Aros Pryd - for me?
0:06:29 > 0:06:30- Not off the top of my head.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- # Here's something to keep you going
0:06:33 > 0:06:35- # Here's something - to keep you going #
0:06:35 > 0:06:36- I don't want to do that.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39- That one's brilliant.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40- Anyone thinking Tamed I Aros Pryd?
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Anyone thinking Tamed I Aros Pryd?- - I was thinking that one.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45- Play it again.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- I'm thinking this one.
0:06:56 > 0:06:57- Me too.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00- Do we have a decision?
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Do we have a decision?- - We do.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03- Tamed I Aros Pryd.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Tamed I Aros Pryd.- - MC Pierce calls it.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- I'm thinking - how we're going to do it.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- It's already in a style we all like.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- We need to think beyond that.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32- What's going on at the moment?
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- The drum machine - is good for taking something...
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- ..in a completely new direction.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- You can use it as the backbone - and if it lasts, it lasts.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- If not, we can play drums over it.
0:07:46 > 0:07:51- I quite like that groove - it's - quite similar yet totally different.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53- You can slow it down as well.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57- I don't know, I liked that tempo.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- You can see the cars going up - and down, the suspension.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Pierce is going to start twerking - any minute.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12- Ladies, here's a little bit of - Eilir Pierce to keep you going.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19- So they've now had several hours - with the song.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22- They've decided on the structure.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26- They're a bit more aware - of how the song goes.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30- They've laid some parts down - such as the drum track...
0:08:31 > 0:08:36- ..some sort of ghost drum track, - and a few other things are down...
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- ..so let's go and see - where they're at.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Boys, how's it going? - What's happening?
0:08:43 > 0:08:48- It's a combination - of childish Icelandic...
0:08:48 > 0:08:53- ..and poppy, low-fi hip-hop - and dark gospel.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58- Are you at a point - where the song can go somewhere?
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- Yes. We need to choose a bass line - for the chorus.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08- Then we have something that we can - start layering on top of it.
0:09:15 > 0:09:21- Osh, talk me through the day - step by step since you arrived here.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23- God, no.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28- We decided at the outset - that we didn't want to do a cover...
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- ..which was similar to the original.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- We've been messing with the vocals - now. Eilir's been doing that.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- He's taken on the role of MC Mabon.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44- I think it's fine. - He worries too much.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50- Then I'm going to lay the drums down - next, and then the proper vocals.
0:09:54 > 0:09:59- The song has now evolved from being - merely a song and an idea...
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- ..into a graph of earnestness...
0:10:03 > 0:10:05- ..and they've returned - to the studio...
0:10:06 > 0:10:10- ..to develop some sort of - earnestness in the structure.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14- I'm not exactly sure how it works - but it looks good.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- Osian, you're my vocal mentor.
0:10:18 > 0:10:19- What do you want?
0:10:19 > 0:10:21- What do I need to do?
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- We'll listen to those as they are - as a double track.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27- Shall I go on to the second one?
0:10:39 > 0:10:41- Fuckin' 'ell, you scared me!
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Sorry, the cameraman scared me. - I'll do that again.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- The style of singing we've done - on the rap bit...
0:10:49 > 0:10:53- ..sounds like Gruff Meredith's - Stars In Their Eyes.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- It's a danger, like when you sing - a Bob Dylan song...
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- ..you end up doing an impersonation - of Bob Dylan.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- If we'd had a Hogia'r Wyddfa - or a Tony and Aloma song...
0:11:06 > 0:11:10- ..we'd have more room to run - with it, with the way we work.
0:11:10 > 0:11:15- It's been great that we haven't - all gone into a room...
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- ..learnt the song, pressed record - and said job done.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- It's been a lot of fun.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43- Back to chapel.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- Join us after the break - to hear the finished masterpiece.
0:11:47 > 0:11:47- .
