My son is in the upper left corner playing the flute at the 30 second mark and again at around the 3:30 mark in the lower lefthand corner. He was very excited to be a part of this.
Everyone's talking about the musicians, who did a great job, but no one is talking about the editor. This had to be a nightmare to put together, to time and balance everything correctly, but it was done masterfully.
Really put emphasis on the "Big" in The 8-Bit Big Band. This is amazing! I don’t even know how everyone managed to coordinate with one another and just sync up so well with so many people. But all I really care is that this exists and I love it!
I just have to say wow. This was truly an extraordinary project to play with. Everything was on point and well worth the wait. This is truly a once in a life time experience and I wish we could do projects like this daily. It was great seeing so many familiar faces whether it be from the 8 Bit Big Band Discord, IRL, or reputation alone; I am honored to play along side each and every one of you. Great job everyone! p.s. my showings are as follows :) 0:09, 0:33, 1:41, 3:01, 3:33, and of course 4:11
To say this is an incredible arrangement would be an understatement. I particularly love how much it takes from the character select version of Lifelight (and others in the game) rather than only the song!!
This is the best performance of this song. Don't be humble. Don't downplay it. This is gold. This is it. I'm proud that people are awesome enough to do this despite everything. Stay Determined. Stay true.
Now this is certainly a performance to be proud of. Even with this pandemic bringing so much down on everyone, instead of rushing out an animation, you instead work out a collaboration to truly set the tone of not only the song, but the entire series. Well done, to everyone in the video! Also, would the part at around 1 minute happen to be a reference to Rainbow Road? I happened to get that vibe from the strings there if not and it turned out beautifully to keep the pace of the song moving.
Here is a little list of every type of instrument used in this masterpiece: -Piccolos -Flutes -Oboes -English Horns -Clarinets -Bass Clarinets -Contrabass Clarinets -Bassoons -Contrabassoons -Soprano Saxophones -Alto Saxophones -Tenor Saxophones -Baritone Saxophones -Bass Saxophones -Trumpets -French Horns -Trombones -Bass Trombones -Euphoniums -Tubas -Electric Guitars -Pianos -Organ -Rhodes Pianos -Electric Basses -Drum Sets -Violins -Violas -Cellos -Double Basses -Mallet Percussion -Auxiliary Percussion -Harps So yeah. There's a lot. I'm particularly stunned by the presence of the bass saxes and contrabass clarinets.
so amazing to be able to play with so many people I've looked up too for so long! thank you to charlie for this wonderful opportunity and thank you to everyone else who participated
This makes me happy to watch. So many musicians, and a DAMN good arrangement. I'd hate to be the guy mixing this though. But damn I need to be part of one of these things sometime I reeeeeally want to but I never see them
I got a semibreve’s worth of screen time, I’m honestly speechless!! Seriously, though. This was epic to be part of and it sounds fantastic, also! Thanks a lot for organising and putting this together, as well as helping to include the community. Definitely lightened up these dark times we’re living in right now! Thank you
I was almost in tears! 664 great musicians played together. What a incredible epic project! So glad to be a part of this with everyone! Big thanks for The 8-Bit Big Band creating this beautiful idea and opportunity! Loved it so much! Thanks again and again! 🤘🎮💜
So, so happy to have gotten to participate on flute and piccolo! I really appreciate having this opportunity and the final result is AMAZING. I love having collaborated virtually with all of these insanely awesome musicians.
I am so glad to have been a part of this amazing project. Hope I could participate in similar projects in the future! This was definitely one of the highlights of my quarantine. Much love, from Guam U.S.A
Major props to the editor (And of course the arranger) of this video. Cannot imagine how much time it must've taken to assemble this masterpiece. Everyone did such a good job.
Look, Gary, there I am! @2:48 (Bottom Right corner Tbone) Fantastic work on the editing and mixing! This was a great project to be a part of, and I hope to take part in any future collaborations as well!
Yo I legit got goosebumps in 15-second intervals for the entirety of the song. Smash Bros. unites game franchises from all over, while Smash Bros. music unites the musicians!
I can't believe I actually got to participate with you guys! Thank you so much for the opportunity and tolerating my mistakes. Everyone here did amazing, and the result clearly shows the hard work which was put into the piece.
So great to be a part of this. Huge thanks to Charlie Rosen , John Kilgore, Alan Silverman at Arf Mastering, and Halleloo Productions. It must of been a headache to organize and edit, you all did an amazing job!
Hands down, my favorite UA-cam video ever! How does this only have around 70,000 views?! The amount of time, dedication, and talent required to create this beautiful piece of art just completely baffles me! This video deserves way more recognition, and should be up there among the greatest UA-cam videos of all time. This is the first time I've heard of 8-Bit Big Band, but you can consider me subscribed! 8-Bit Big Band, if you're reading this, you are all truly talented. Keep making awesome content!
So sad I didn't have the chance to record this and participate...I think there should be more! Such a killer job! I imagine the editing on this was monumental :)
I am so honored to had been given this opportunity to make a magnificent musical masterpiece! I loved working on it and finally being able to see how everything came together!! Great job!!
Have to give some love to the editors here, you did a magnificent job with this! It had to have been a monumental task to properly assemble, and it came out perfect! Well done!
God this scratches every itch for what I love to hear in covers like this. Thank you so much everyone who was involved but especially the people who put it together
Congratulations to all of these awesome musicians !! ...And also to the people who got to do the editing, mixing and mastering of the whole thing, because it must've been a pretty complicated task...
There’s so much editing in this, that I’m pretty sure once you were done and the video was out, you were still editing this. I’m exhausted in the best way possible.
WHAT THE FUCK 664 Can't imagine what the mixing process looked like "Mixed by John Kilgore Mastered by Alan Silverman at Arf Mastering" Thank you, may your souls rest in peace.
OH I MEANT TO TELL YOU ALL! The track is available for free to download on our bandcamp! It will be on spotify and other streaming sites soon
Is there a multitrack available? :P
Heyo! May I get permission to extend your wonderful work?
@c1rcu1tn3rd it is, it's a name your price thing. I did it myself and threw them a few bucks but it is free
This is amazing! You guys never cease to amaze me. Please keep doing what you do.
Where is the link?
When they said “everyone is here,” they MEANT it
All 664 of them!
Still cannot get over that number, like WOW

His name is Jacob and he amazes me at his musicianship and I'm not just saying that because he's my son. Very proud of him.
Your son is so talented!
You must be very proud of him
Jason High DUDE, that's AMAZING! I bet you're very proud of him :)
@@highontaiwan this is a massive project he you two should be proud!
amazing! what a pleasure to take part in this with everyone!
did i hear you play the lick at 2:40? Or is it just my ears playing tricks on me...

E3 with Wii Music?
did someone say wii music
Oui, music!
This is incredible. This had to take weeks to compile, develop, and edit, and I cannot say it's any less than absolutely fantastic.
We got sheet music around April 1st, had until the 8th to submit video/audio, and editing went until around a month after that
Seriously, though, just the task of synchronizing all of the different tracks is one I don't even want to think about....
RychschaX click track
_That's a lotta hours._
Nothing less for a masterpiece...
*EVERYONE IS HERE*
I can’t believe I participated in this with 600+ other very talented musicians! Everyone did great!
Mother of God WHY THE HELL DIDNT THIS GET ONE MILLION VIEWS!?!?!?
*THIS IS SO UNDERRATED*
#TRUTH
The fact that it still hasn’t is a great shame…
You might be a big band if you have nine Bass Clarinets.
Or multiple bass saxophones
@@balderdash14 or multiple contrabass clarinets!
@@johnwallar or a singular subcontrabass saxophone (it be T H I C C)
There were 6 contrabass clarinets, 4 contrabassoons, and 3 bass saxes
Yeah don't mind the 21 drumsets though, if this honestly took place in real life they'd probably need a whole football field to fit all of them
Everyone's talking about the musicians, who did a great job, but no one is talking about the editor. This had to be a nightmare to put together, to time and balance everything correctly, but it was done masterfully.
Okay, who was slappin' that b-Ass at 3:33? Show yourself/selves. Y'all thought you could hide in the mix but I hear you bein all awesome.
Damn I didn't catch that on any of the other times I watched this but now I can hear it distinctly and wow he do be *slappin*
YES WHO IS THAT BECAUSE I HEARD IT AND WAS LIKE 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

Takes me straight back into the hype over this game from 2018. Beautiful.
Good lord the thought of engineering all those drum recordings is bringing me out in cold sweats!
Making me wanna learn every instrument ever
Thank you for the way you encourage young musicians to take part in this big project
I appreciate this. Not only because it's good. But because it's well made and took a hell of a lot of work to do I imagine.
Yaa - You Are Amazing!!
Talk about making the best out of a situation. You sir, are a genius. Looking forward to seeing a live concert again once things get back to normal
Well that was epic. I don't know how yall made it sound as good as it does, but it sounds perfect. This was amazing.
That was the Ultimate big band rendition. Good god this is permanently going into my phone's rotation.
Congratulations to all of these awesome musicians !!

the is so freaking awesomely epic, it puts a smile on my face watching this, thanks for the gift :)
This is better than the Game Awards orchestra
HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS?!? This is CRIMINAL!
I'm so happy that I got to take part in this!
Absolutely, completely, over-the-top ridiculous. And I mean that in the best possible way. Wish I could have contributed!
Thank you so much for this

3:40 MORE COWBELL! Seriously though. This deserves a lot more views. A lot more.
Incredible! It was a privilege to participate in this project!

Yea bass saxophone SECTION! It was a pleasure to play with you; not often are there more players than just myself. Let's do it again sometime!
I think this is definitely my favorite arrangement of that piece so far!
Rewatching this cuz this sums up my feelings for the final reveal
Brought so many chills it almost brought tears
