It's about time I finish this! Sorry for the lack of tambourine, but I really wanted to share this one. It's been in the works for months and months! I hope you like it. I love the Suikoden series so much, and of course people have been asking me to cover it for ages. Well, here it is!
I took inspiration from the version of this song on Orizzonte (the Suikoden II arranged album). Hence the vocal countermelody. Also, I'm playing around more with my MIDI skills, trying to make it sound more like a real person is playing. Hopefully the piano works.
But yes! Suikoden love. Are you a Suikoden fan? If you haven't played the games yet, the first three are now available on the PSN so you have no excuse. Suikoden II is honestly one of the best game stories I have ever seen, with so much depth and complexity and maturity. The translation is a little sloppy (I've never seen so many exclamation points in my life) but that can't really hold the game back. It's also graphically gorgeous and has a beautiful soundtrack. Really. It's so good. You should play it.
I'm going to make another vlog soon, but if you've gotten this far -- my band is playing at PAX Prime in August! And I've been streaming Earthbound on Twitch and I'll be putting some highlight reels up here! And ... yeah! Good stuff!
Come say hi to me! I love to keep in touch with fans and friends. :)
