Hello there! I'm back with another video which features the soundtrack music of the amazing game Life Is Strange. First song is "The Sense Of Me" by Mudflow and the second one is "Spanish Sahara". Both of them can be heard while playing the 5th episode of the game.
0:00 - 1:26 Mudflow - "The Sense Of Me"
1:27 - 1:56 "Spanish Sahara" a guitar solo from the song since it's really lovely
1:58 - 7:19 Foals "Spanish Sahara" the whole thing
Apologies for slight technical issues - I'm still new to the split screen :)
And as always: please bear in mind that I'm completely self-taught and I play by ear so I don't even know what I'm playing, ha!

+Antecedentful thx a lot, man! I always wonder what makes people to think I look like chloe because I think we counldn't be more different in terms of the outer look :D Yes I play by ear 'cause I've never been able to learn to read notes....im always like "jimi hendrix didn't know how to read notes either so why should i" ... anyway, thank you once again!
I'am from Russia, and I love you covers so much! I play the guitar too and admire you game! By the way: you're cute :3

+Vel The Mango Duck I'm so honoured to be one of your favorite youtubers, like seriously! Thank you for your lovely words.
+M Mayer AAAA YES U RESPONDED.
I AM FLOPPING WITH JOY.
YOU DONT KNOW HOW MUCH JOYFUL FLOPPING I AM DOING RN.
ur welclam ;v;
just when i thought i couldn't love this fandom more haha
I remember coming across one of your three LiS cover videos some time ago and I fell in love hard. I listened to all three constantly the whole day.
It's your raw passionate playing that is usually overlooked these days; the quality that makes the experience feel more real, like an unpolished, undiscovered gem, but a gem nonetheless.
I didn't listen to the videos in a long while but today I came across them again, by accident, and I fell in love again!
I thank you kindly for these sweet treats and I hope you keep making music and have the best of life!
Love,
Abrar
ps- have you played LiS 2??
Another fantastic set of covers, and a pretty gnarly pick guard too.
+owossoBassPlayer thanks! I set this kind of tradition to have a different pick guard for each vid :)
+M Mayer That's rad! I'll keep an eye out for each one in future videos.
That's a freakin' good cover you got there!! Love the detail that you actually played the vocals with the guitar ;) pretty nice
Also, thank's a ton for the video on the ending credits, I'm using it to get the rythm guitar part down :D gosh, such a beautiful soundtrack
Это прекрасно!
Подписываюсь!
Omg another awesome guitar video and you got the scrath protecter that shows Chloe and Max from lis XD I've got to get
That's sounds really awesome ! I would love to see more of your videos keep it up c:
So awesome!!
I'm waiting for more covers of life is strange like that!! :D
Wow! Cool pickguard!
Wonderful!
you play all the riffs good
I've just finished the game and that was really intense.. Nice cover btw
Amazing covers!!
Amazing covers and love your look.
Tocas súper bien la guitarra!! :D Ojala pudiera tocar como tú :(
believe it or not you are amazing, and with the guitar you are very fast, I love your videos!!!... (sorry for any mistake I didn't speak english very well because I'm from Argentina)
+Fabián Luna thank you, and don't worry, your English is better than mine! :)
HE IS RIGHT! YOU ARE AMAZING
Glad you agree, muffin! :D
When u hear Spanish Sahara and remeber that ending... damn... I finished the game 2 months ago and it still in my head... (in my final sounds Obstacles... like must to be xd)
Just the one I wanted! :D
+Sorian Slimani Glad to hear that! Although initially I had a set of bongos on "Spanish Sahara". But I wasn't able to synchronize it with the rest, so I ditched it. I'm sure it would have sounded a little bit more dynamic. But anyway.
It's a shame LiS doesn't have more tracks (I won't do "Santa Monica Dream" since it's way too simple and "Crosses" is, the other way round, complicated - or rather, I'm lazy to tune down a few strings). I mean I could cover some more stuff by J. Morali, but I'm not convinced ambient would sound good on my guitar.
Btw, are you making any progress with "Mountains"? :)
+M Mayer I'm running out of time these days but yeah, am practising quite every day! Am ok with the chords but am not sure about my right hand and about the order I should pick the strings. Your 's crazy fast (despite you say you r slow ;). Anyway, am gonna download your video and slow it to have a better look. I'll catch this one as well to have it on my way to work ^^!
Sorian Slimani that's exactly what I wanted to recommend you - and actually that's what I DID with "To All Of You" :P I just slowed the track down and voilà - almost a piece of cake (emphasis on "almost"). As I mentioned here already though, I'm trying to create some tabs, so I let you know when they'll be ready :) Keep going, I know you're gonna make it!
It's just amazing!!!!!! I'm playing too, but it's something hella incredible :DDD Hello from Russia!
Just earned a sub :3 please don't stop making videos!
Youre so hella amazing! I'm seriously in love OMFG Keep your work girl!!!
+GabrielaPrice what's that mushy stuff, huh??! :D Thanks a million!
M Mayer A lil bit of mushy is good sometimes xDDD
Beautiful.
Hella good cover!
+M Mayer your the best and ur awesome tnx for continuing to make UA-cam videos :)
I want more life is strange games....so there can be more covers haha
Great! Games nowadays have such a great music in their soundtracks...
Wow that one sounds awesome :)
How long do you play the guitar for? I can't really tell how hard it must be to learn it all by yourself, I've just always been taking lessons for playing the Piano & Violin and that's already hard enough :D
And one more guess: you're from the US, aren't you? :)
Anyways, greetings from Austria! :)
+unknownpseudonym Hi, thanks! I've been playing for about seven years I guess, with LOTS of breaks when I didn't play the guitar at all - and that's why I'm still such a lame musician :D
Honestly, it was and still is hard. But one big advantage of learning everything by yourself is the amazing feeling when you succeed in learning a difficult song - it is priceless. A big disadvantage is the lack of discipline, naturally.
I'd love to be from the US, but I'm not - I'm really flattered I look like an American to you though! :D
+M Mayer Oh yes I can imagine what that must feel like :)
It's also a complete different feeling when you manage to learn a Song and know it by heart or you learned it just by ear than just playing it from the sheet. I've also got a Cousin who plays the guitar (fairly decent :D) I can send you a video from him if you want to :D
Oh well that suprises me, especially because your english seems really native to me :D
And of course your style ^-^
unknownpseudonym wat ! :D where did you hear me speak? In my old vids? that must have burned your ears how bad it was, haha. Man, I'm always so embarassed to speak in my vids...
I don't understand the sheet music at all so I HAVE to play everything by ear. I don't like to use tabs, either. I just like to learn everything by myself, it just makes more fun :)
Yes, do send me a video of your cousin, I'm curious about other players, I can always learn something new :)
+M Mayer haha no I meant by reading your comments :D
sent! :)
unknownpseudonym where did you send it ? :D
Niiice coverS :)
You have a new subscriber ;)
Amazing !!!
You my friend are dope you got my subscription
Hella beautiful💖😁
Yeah, the same technique I am using. Playing by ear and using tabs and youtube videos but it works quite well. ^^
This is hella cool
¡Muy bien!!!
You're amazing at playing guitar! ^^ I loved both your Life Is Strange covers! I hope you're still active on this lol do you have any social media links??? XD 👍👍👍
My type of girl ^-^. Beautiful and talented. Good work.
+Mateusz hohooo, thank you!
Now i eant a guitar
+Golden ge-Toestet go get one! so you could enchant men/women! :P
Martijam Wow it took me 2 years to get one . next repley comes in 2 years again lol need to practice
I would like to see your reaction for the pricefield kiss at the ending :0
Ive played all the games and I have no idea what pricefield is????
Eric Draven Pricefield is
Chloe PRICE
Max CaulFIELD
= PriceField
a ship name of Max and Chloe from LiS
really you got some talent out here, if I may how did you overlapped simultaneous recordings?
thank you! I actually don't like to do this overlapping stuff 'cause once you mess something up a little bit, the whole recording goes wrong. I have earplug headphones, listen to the song and play along as many times as I split the screen - in this case three times. And then I edit it in a program called Movavi and that's it. If you want to do something similar I highly recommend you to buy a looper though, working with it is much easier and faster
Ok, but I really like the way you did this Life is Strange has become just my favorite games I just like everything they put on to it when I played it I took my time to roam about every corner and rewinding as many choices as I could, and the music ambiance and the environmental effects they were just too good to be true I spent last six months trying to find Arcadia bay here but in vain I could find a shore side town similar to it the place it called Cannon Beach in Oregon. P.s Its an honour to meet real life Chloe, Cheers
This is pure fucking gold
Woooooww !
1:57 is love :)
omg you are so amazing I want be you , you play very well the guitar good job and keep uploading more videos pls
+Ale Castillo thank you, but trust me, you don't want to be me :D I'm lazy beyond your imagination.
M Mayer jajajajjaj you cant be more lazy than I :D
+Meljin Damn! You know the truth! :D I'd better not count the hours I had spent creating this vid...
I'm lazy in a different way - you can see I uploaded only a few vids in six years
+Ale Castillo then we could participate in a laziness contest and see who's "better" ! :)
I'm going to win
bravo!
Hella amazing
wow you're amazing
I wish i could play like this... How many years u played the guitar? I play since July of 2015 and I'm learning alone watching people play the guitar and tutorials (not much), how did u learned? PS: Love ur vids, plz continue! PS 2: sorry for my english, I'm from Argentina haha
+Johanna Belén Hi, I guess it's seven years since I started to play the guitar, but as I like to say, there were periods (literally months) when I didn't play at all and learned to play piano instead... how did I learn to play the guitar? Well, I didn't have any Internet connection when I begun to play, plus I wanted to learn it all by myself so if I remember well I started with some pop songs and played with a pick, those were just simple chords. Then I finally had an access to the Internet and that's how I found out about fingerstyle, which is my favorite style and I use it in almost every vid of mine (I'm still terrible in fingerstyle). I think it's really important that you must not get discouraged when a song seems to be too hard for you. And you should be open to every kind of music, because sooner or later, you will need the speed (like in metal music), the complicated melodic lines (like in the classical music), the ability to strum (like in country), and you should not be afraid to go up the neck - you can get so many beautiful chords on the 3rd, 5th, 7th fret.... so I wish you good luck with your playing!
Thanks! I'll try to start with fingerstyle! Soon I'll start with electric guitar, I want to play different styles. Right now I play Country and pop and I want to play Rock... It would be nice if u upload some vid playing the piano!
amazing 😍 can u make a tutorial of mud flow sense of me?? I really wanna learn it 😭😭
You are amazing! How long have you been playing guitar to become that perfect at it ?
+Chantel Bersani oh, it's not perfect at all... the thing is, once I press "record" on my camera, I start to make mistakes :D :( However, to answer you question, it's about 7 years I guess with a lot of breaks and laziness :)
+M Mayer still- your my role model!❤️
I play guitar for like almost a year and I hope that someday I might be as good as you.
You are in my top five of my most favorite guitar players ever !
Chantel Bersani thank you, I'm so honoured, for real! It's always so lovely when people actually express their opinion and with this comment, you couldn't even encourage me more! :) I wish you enough strenght and inspiration in your playing, do not surrender even though there will surely be times you would want to! And once you record your first vid, send me the thing!
Its beautiful... but where is José González - Crosses cover ? :)
Ps: you have beautiful eyes...
+KudlatyV I didn't even notice one can see my eyes in the vid :D But thank you, hah. Guess what! Crosses will be definitely in one of my next vids! I'm not sure it's going to be Life is Strange-related though.
+M Mayer nice! :D I can not wait :)
i understand.. but I wish you further success ^^
Love this could u please post a tutorial or the chords and finger picking pattern
+Jadey Newman Well, since I play by ear, I mostly don't even know what I'm playing and I'm not able to identify the chords unless they're on the first three frets - which is the case of Spanish Sahara - it's F, Am, C, Am, G (both for the verses and for the chorus). As for Mudflow - I can tell you the chords I play in the upper right part of the screen. If I'm not mistaken it's Bm chord played on the 5th fret, then Bb (B flat) on the 3rd fret, and then the standard Bb on the first fret. Each of these chords is played with the open e string (the thin one) Concerning the left screen - it's basically the same (but more finger-picking and absolutely more challenging - these are one of the hardest chords I've ever learned). You start with Bm on the 5th fret, than you kind of do also Bb but you add one finger on the thin e string (and this time you HIT the e string) and then you do the same on the first fret - it's also B flat (1st fret) like in the right vid, but one note added on the e string.
I hope this helps, I know this explanation is difficult to follow and rather lame to read and apply, but trust me, I tried my best :D Let me know if it's at least a little bit useful.
will you do Crosses?
+kate leterg it's on my bucket list !
eepic
Sorry could you tell me what chords do you use in Sense of me chorus pls?
jesus
excellent job :) but try playing with a metronome in your next vid :)
+Tobi Frey wow and seriously how did you get chloe and max on your pickguard? is it a sticker or what? looks awesome :)
+Tobi Frey haha, wish I had one! :D Will do though. But I dare say the problem is something else than falling out of the rhythm - there's this stupid thing called split screen and it's really a pain in the neck. Once you think the sound is synchronized and everything's fine, you discover that your video doesn't work properly. I hope this doesn't sound like an excuse :D Plus I wouldn't be able to hear the metronome with headphones plugged in.... anyway, you're right, metronomy is a useful thingy any musician should own. Now regarding your question - it's a sticker, yeee! Thank you for your comment, Tobi and have a nice day :)
Te amo
m mayer do you put a picture of max and chloe in the pickguard?
+Ale Castillo yup!
M Mayer :)
damn son
Please tutorial?
Ei, hi, tabs this spanish sahara? pls
Me encantas :3
where do you get these pickguards?
+nullak let's reveal the secret - I find a suitable pic or just some pattern I like, I print it out, I cut it so it would overlay the original pick guard and then I have this extra wide transparent duct tape and I just attach it.
I know you probably expected to find out it's some kind of a custom-made thing, but excuse me for being honest and thus telling you it's that simple :) I think it doesn't look bad. Or at least I hope so.
hi, could i have TABs or notes pls. i wanna learn this song ^^
pls help
Are you from Quebec??? Lol u have a Quebec accent
+Hi I'm Owen I presume you heard my awkward speech in my lady gaga vid, am I right ? :D To answer your question, no, sadly, I'm from a stupid European country :/
+M Mayer ohhh lol k yea i was wondering cause one of my teacher's has the same accent
welp....... *sigh* time to get discouraged
you are beautiful, i bet you are able to sing ;)
+edgar leal nope! if you heard me sing, you'd probably steal my vid and name it "worst singer ever" :D I'm really shy and nervous, in terms of my musical performance. As you can hear I do mistakes even when I play the instrument only, let alone singing :D
Oh and thanks a lot!!
I love you so much q-q
she is hella taken hahaha
that's correct! :D And my other half is a bit jealous :P But still, thank you for the comment :)
