Not so much in Australia..
This is absolutely Amazing! Cranck you Volume UP, and enjoy this stunning symphonic orchestra performance!
If you invoke autoplay in youtube the surprise is even bigger, so dont look at the title :D
This orchestra thing I witness is really some sort of a dellusion of grandure .
they took like the most famous club song ever and just play it , what do you expect people will have fun for sure . It's some marketing trick .
My favorite electronic music coming from Australia is the band " ART VS SCIENCE " .
They ain't popular and I never understood why ,
Maybe it has to do with putting your money on promotion or something because they are superb and all their music clips worth watching .
Been wondering if only symphonic orchestra instruments were used.....
Sounds like the cheated a tiny bit, I am wondering about a drum machine and 1 synth?

This is kind of cool and perhaps unexpected (especially in regards to electronic music), but the conecpt actually isn't that uncommon. I still have some tapes lying around from the Munich Symphonic Sound Orchestra, which released several volumes of "The Sensation of Sound - Pop goes classic", featuring orchestral renditions of popular titles of the time. You could of course argue about the quality, personally I often prefer the original songs, but I guess if you want a really bombastic and sentimental version of "Let it be", there you go (found it on YouTube by the way, if anyone's interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwPBQi74t_Y). But even they (as Gbs suggested here) had to supplement synthesizers and electric guitars to make it work.
Still, I'm yet to hear of any other club nights in concert halls.
I'm not afraid of citicism and certainly won't get salty about it, as long as it's justified and well-founded. I'm here to learn and I think that is kind of the point of sharing ones work in a forum like this. So any feedback is welcome and ecouraged.
Honestly, I used to think symphony nights were all stiff and boring too until I actually went to one with some friends. The energy of a big orchestra is way different than just listening to a recording—it’s really intense live. Sometimes I went expecting to zone out but ended up getting pulled in, especially when they throw in unexpected covers or mix genres. The atmosphere feels formal but the actual sound just hits different, especially in a big hall.
If you ever get curious about big concert experiences or harder-to-find tickets for these kinds of events, I’ve had good luck finding options on StarTickets.com. They seem to have a lot of choices for concerts and live shows, even ones that usually sell out fast.
