#4 "Festive Lights" - Jake McCoy

Well, hello. It's been a while. More info below.

So, here's another composition. I already have one nearly ready to go for next week! I thought summer would be a good time for me to get ahead and do a bunch of covers, but boy, I was wrong. Going to Israel, having a friend in town, and Grammy Camp comprised most of my summer, and starting school August 1st doesn't help.
Now, I'm back on a schedule and my life makes sense again. xD Covers and compositions are back. Hell yeah.
(HEY. Anyone hear the reference to Twilight Princess?)
Composed and Performed by Jake McCoy
Piano: Casio CDP-120BK

Good change of pace from the last one! And senior year is a breeze, i expect great things from you Mr. McCoy.

[@jam2995]

Let's hope so. :D

[@jam2995]

I will give it 100% to have a cover out by the end of this month!! :D

[@TeraCMusic]

Shooooot you start school earlier than me?!?! WHAT. I just started today :O Awesome composition, by the way. It's very calming yet cheery :)

[@ReSubrose]

I like the simplicity of this song though - its not long to drone on. Its the length it needs to be to convey its message of timeless and simple joy :D

[@jam2995]

I think my school system is trying to do something like that. I end late may, start August 1st, but have a two week fall and spring break. It kinda balances out, but I'd rather have a longer summer.

[@eltinchox]

This is great Jake!! You play really well :) Nice motive development!

[@linyanka09]

awesome Dude!

[@Zarinah]

Nicely done! Its a nice cheerful piece, very nice indeed :D

[@PegsterMcDudeson]

Yes... Yes it really does.

[@TimelordLink90]

Yes it does. That will be of great benefit to you should you decide to study music in college. I currently study music education at Lamar University.

[@XFanmarX]

0:42 Starts the Twilight Princess ref, the overworld/hyrule field theme I believe.
Love the piece Jake, though it's a bit too short to properly enjoy imo. Make it longer so people can use it as background music! :)

[@davidrenmusic]

Nice job Jake! I will give you a thumbs up!! :)

[@TimberTonesPlectrums]

For some reason I can't hear this one as either 'festive' or 'cheerful'. It has a taste of 'regret' or 'last one we will ever enjoy' type of thing in it. I think that's my favorite you've made up to now. (also that one had a clear end, haha)

[@jam2995]

Does AP Music Theory in high school count?

[@crypticpurge3967]

What the hell you start school so early o.o Nice vid btw :D

[@DSC24]

Reminds me of Mario Kart for god knows what reason

[@WhiteVanEpidemic]

Huh, that's interesting. I know some Catholic schools do the same. But as far as your school goes now, is it law for the state to start schooling at the beginning of August or something? Here in Michigan, state law requires schools to start right after Labor Day weekend.

[@julydful]

Jake we want covers bro! stahp le original music, even tho it's good. I will get downvoted as hell but i want to keep things real, love you

[@50000mack]

Parts of it sound like the Hyrule Field theme from TP :3

[@WhiteVanEpidemic]

August 1st? Do you go to a yearlong school, or something of the like?

[@Nintendofan-uv6fs]

Hey jam2995 is that a keyboard or panio r u playing ?

[@Nintendofan-uv6fs]

Nice keep up the good work :) (y)

[@jam2995]

I am jealous. Very. Jealous. xD

[@50000mack]

At 0:43

[@necrogon22]

[@FrankTheHermit]

Sex to my ears.
