    Zelda song Three!!! WOOP! Well, this one took a while, not because of recording, but because I did not have a camera. The camera I had been using was borrowed, and the owner needed it. I finally got my own camera and filmed this yesterday. I think this song turned out nicely, though. Some clips may be slightly out of sync, because iMovie kept being laggy. And as you may have noticed I put a solo in there, but I kept it quite simple. Comment, thumbs-up, rate, subscribe, enjoy!

    I think, because of a harsh comment saying that jam2995 was ugly as hell(posted by Truth Grant), he never fully showed himself fully in this video. Man got to hate stupid insulting people. The video that he posted this comment on was the Hyrule Castle a link to the past guitar cover. I am only pointing this out, because if I were jam2995, I would totally feel insulted to be called ugly. Whoever agrees with me, please thumbs up.

    Today, it suddently took me : "I wanna hear a Gerudo's valley cover". And then I remembered you... I thought "hmmm I heard only one guy playing it without changing a note like I love (which other musicians quite always don't and that I hate)". But it was years ago. Then I thought "I must have put a thumb up for his cover", so he still might be in my list...
    But how to find ONE thumb up in particular in your list when you have more than 2507 ones? Watching them all? Yeah... But... No. ^^
    But I had something in my mind about your vid that caught my eye when I watched it the first time, you were playing a green electric guitar.
    So I checked all my list and I found you just by looking the pictures (even without looking at the titles). I was looking for something green... And... FOUND IT ! You are number 1578. xD
    It took me a approximatly twenty minutes but,
    What I can say is... It really was worth it because it's the best cover of that song I've ever heard. :)

    I liked it a lot! Thank you guys! A lot of remixes or dubsteps just cover the few notes that make the track recognizable and then drown it in techno music. If others are going to cover a game track, they should use the entire track in the cover, remix, or dubstep, like you guys did. FANTASTIC JOB!! PLEASE DO MORE!!

    They hold true to the original theme while you add a touch of your own magic to give them a little bit more life.
    I even used one of your songs in one of my videos and give you credit. You were just that good!
    If it’s worth anything now I am truly happy that you are shared your talent and for all to see.

    • @jam2995
      @jam2995  7 років тому +5

      Thanks so much! All the equipment I used is listed in the description. I recorded in GarageBand (now I use Logic) and I filmed with a camera then uploaded the footage into iMovie and had to manually synchronize the video of me playing to the audio of the song. It takes a while, but after doing it a bit you get pretty good at it. :)

    • @grehzz
      @grehzz 7 років тому

      So grateful for your kind and prompt response, jam2995. Just if it's not too bothering, could you clarify these additional questions for me?:
      1. So the sound in this video comes from recording the instruments in garageband, not from the video camera itself, right?
      2. I assume, then, that you don't filmed the whole song with each instrument, but only segments of it in order to illustrate with footage the audiotrack you already had in iMovie, right?
      3. In which order did you record each instrument? do you record a backing track first and then add the rest one by one, or how do you do it?
      Ok, that's it. No problem if you are not able to answer these questions. I still love your video and your playing. Thanks again!!

    • @jam2995
      @jam2995  7 років тому +11

      1. Exactly! The mp3 is just overlayed the video and then I mute the audio coming from the camera.
      2. Yeah more or less. I pretty much film the entire video on each instrument. I don't plan out ahead what shots I want for which melody or riff. I figure that out in the editing process. I make sure every instrument, melody line, and harmony gets filmed, so I can figure out how I want to portray that when I'm editing the video.
      3. I create the drum track first, all programmed on the computer. I basically create my arrangement around my drum track. Then comes rhythm guitar, then bass, then melody, then harmonies, and whatever else I decide to add. I record everything myself, one track at a time.
      Lemme know if you have any more questions!

    • @grehzz
      @grehzz 7 років тому +1

      Thanks sooooo much for answeing my questions again!! Just because you offer it, could you give me some detail on how did you create the drum track? (software, sound/instruments used, tempo, time signature, how many bars or measures, etc.).
