This one took me about a month. That seems about normal. Sometimes I don't have to do a full transcription as there's an existing MIDI that is good enough for me to base the 8-bit conversion on, in which case I can do it in a couple of days. However for a good chunk of my covers (including this and most of The Mountain), I had to go through and manually transcribe all of the notes before reducing them to the 8-bit format.
I mean, you probably don't even care because you do this with passion and it doesn't matter what others think but MAN! You're fucking God, your job is stellar. I don't know what more to say. If it wasn't much could I request "The Architect"? It's my favorite song of the album (I know it's big but I love really big songs, this prog anyway right?). Thank you in advance.
Man that's incredible ! I didn't know Haken, got straight here from your Lateralus cover, and it's... waow, I absolutely love the vibe ! Do you plan to post some original songs of yours ?
I have in the past made an original for this channel, but I have some other things going on that take priority over this at the moment... I hope to return to some 8-bit covers (and maybe originals) soon though.
Yep! Ray Hearne told me about it after their 2017 London show - they didn't play it on the night I saw them but they'd been playing it on other nights. The weirdest part was when Charlie Griffiths said he really thought it was cool and then asked me how I did it... I was thinking to myself "man I should be asking you this!" Still riding that high today.
@@adam-gould You should be riding it man, these covers/transscriptions/whatever are so good. I keep popping back to listen to more or less all of the Haken ones and Awake.
If Nintendocore went prog
This is why I love the internet! I always thought this song had elements of an old NES song, and now I know why!
5:47 - thank me later!
It's been about a year now, so thank you!
The best part no doubt
Oh god this song works amazing with 8-bit
I knew it!
PERFECT one to do 8-bit version of! I love it so much... 8-bit is too cute for me to handle :)
I really miss the e-drums from the original track. Nevertheless you did the best possible and it sounds freaking awesome! \o/
Great work! This song works really well with 8-Bit! How long does it usually take you to transcribe everything?

Unreal!

I've been thinking about doing The Architect at some point. Not next though, I have another thing planned for next...

Ok, thanks for the answer !
This is amazing :D
If you ever find the time please do Earthrise!!
👍👍👍👏👏👏
was this legit the thing that played on the interludes of their live shows? That's awesome if it is!

Well done! Though personally I feel like it lacks the intensity of the song.
I agree, but I think that is a product of the NES limit of 4 maximum simultaneous sounds
