- Extremely good song from the Mozart of video game music. I'll probably hit the big ones from this soundtrack before moving back to Skyrim / kotor
edit: the repeat should say to measure 3

This beat slaps
Trap remix when?
This is such a wonderful resource, so very masterfully done! I love how manageable you make all this information. I will be studying this a lot :)
oh my god, thank you soooo much for making these! I've listened to all 4 analysis you did of the SMG music.
The SMG soundtrack is just so amazing. I tried deciphering the chords in Buoy Bay Galaxy and good lord, it's like trying to take apart a running steam train.
It's amazing how you transcribed the song so well, must have taken like 20-30 hours.
Though a small critique: I think those are "flutes" and not "recorders". Concert flutes do sound a little bit different than recorders. And recorders are also waaay to quiet to be properly used in a full-fledged orchestra.
Amazing transcription work, my guy! You've earned a subscriber, this content is just what I need in order to learn more about orchestration.
This is amazing but I do have one thing I may be wrong but at measure 44 I believe that the instrument added is the glockenspiel not the xylophone but again I may be wrong
Yea you're right its glock
I did not know there was a bar of 5/4 in this! Very cool to see the sheet music for such a beautiful piece! :)
I know nothing about music notes and stuff. What am I looking at?
the best video game song in sheet music essentially

So impressive!
absolutely outstanding, you got a patreon ?
This is an amazing quality transcription and analysis to do by ear! I was wondering what you mean by "pan-triadism" in Kondo's harmony? I can't find any information about the term online.
I've used the term wrong in the video, I had just learned it at the time so I guess I was excited to use it!
Frank Lehman (who is an incredible John Williams scholar, I highly recommend his collection of themes and motifs franklehman.com/starwars/) talks about pantriadicism in his book "Hollywood Harmony" which discusses a ton of film score's crazy harmonies. Its a great read and fairly easy to get a copy of online if you have college or even highschool access to academic libraries / journals (if not just PM me).
Lehman defines pantriadicism as "the succession of consonant triads without reference to diatonic scales, functions, or centers" (Hollywood Harmony, Ch. "Expression and Transformation" p. 2). So in this case, while Kondo's harmonies are really cool, janky, and triadic, they have a clear tonal center on C and therefore cannot be pantriadic.
An excellent example of pantriadicism on this channel is the opening of Masser by Jeremy Soule (could be argued that it centers on E with a lot of nonfunctional harmony, I don't really hear it though)
Nice transcription, subbed! I have a question tho, could the #IV and III movement to I in the 9th measure be considered as a sort of bII variation? I was just discussing this with a friend :p
The middle voice leading definitely checks out and we do get "le"->sol in the top voice. It is hard to justify the low trombone voice though so I'm not sure
I thought Kondo only wrote gusty garden and Roselina's comet observatory
