The Strokes - Starting Again (best full version)

This is the best edit available. An official complete version has not been released. Using AI, I isolated the instruments and vocals. With these elements, I crafted a final segment while also removing crowd cheering sounds where possible. Additionally, I added my own bassline because the original portion I used for the final segment lacked bass, aiming to give it that classic Strokes feel, reminiscent of Nikolai's style.

As for the video, I included the original "Maya Wiley TV Ad" where the song originated from, and a couple more clips showing The Strokes getting involved in politics, like "Kina Collins - Chicago Recap" and "Julian Casablancas of The Strokes Endorses Bernie" excluding only the interview footage. I adjusted the framing to remove subtitles and converted everything to black and white to match the Maya Ad's aesthetic. Interestingly enough, the footage matched up perfectly with the length of my edit.

I hope that one day The Strokes will complete and release it because it sounds really good.
Until then, this is the best version available, so take it or leave it!
