EVERYTIME I DIE
One of the greatests song by Finnish Death Metal band Children of Bodom. I'm playing a combination of guitars and synthesizer parts on medieval Hammered Dulcimer. The tune is scaled to E-minor (2 semitones upwards) to facilitate playing on this instrument. I couldn't find a way to interprete the keyboard solo without losing its awesome vibe, so I decided to leave it aside, unfortunately.

Technical details : My hammered dulcimer is a Roger Frood Dove 4-13-13-5 Chromatic model.Virtual instruments I used are Groove Agent 5 (drums), Halion Sonic 3 (bass, keyboards), Karoryfer Cute Emily (virtual guitars) with Cubase's 10.5 virtual amp. For the backing track, I've used a commonly found MIDI score as a starting point, and strongly edited it to achieve a decent sound on my virtual instruments.
RIP Alexi, thank you for the incredible pieces of art you left.
