Here's a cover that's a blast from the past. Underwater level music always has a special place in my heart. Maybe because the levels themselves are usually kinda frustrating, the music is always so calming.

=====(The Details/Performer's Notes)=====
This arrangement was originally from a few years ago, so once again I'm reviving a video from the early days of the channel. The idea was to play the original theme fairly straightforward, and then do a more ridiculous/exaggerated variation. As a result this one gets more difficult in the 2nd half. Players be warned.
Your Pianist,
Erik C.
P.S. Expect a new vid to celebrate the recent release of Skyward Sword next. Better late than never I always say.

The NSMB songs would probably be more praised if they weren’t used in nearly every game, they’re actually really good, especially the beach, castle and underwater theme

All of the games actually have completely original OSTs. The problem is they recycle the same sound fonts and vocal bits making them very samey. They do have some absolutely addicting tunes though and I love them, particular the overworld themes.

@@natepearson9804 some of them are different, but the castle, beach, desert, forest, underground and underwater are from nsmbwii and we’re used in every game since. As well as the p switch and star, but i don’t think that counts

Hey so like I started playing the piano about 5 years ago, but didn't really practice properly and focused mostly on improv because I found that infinitely more fun. Now I'm wanting to really get into playing again and want to improve on my technique (I've got the basics down but am nowhere near to the flashy stuff you're doing). Do you have any tips on developing your technique past the basics? Even if you're not gonna see this I'd appreciate if someone in the comments could give me some advice (like where to start, etc).

@azielross4684 3 жыл бұрын

Do you think you could ever repost some of your older videos with this newer piano trail edit? I actually plan to learn some of your older arrangements like great fairy’s fountain, and song of storms but the trails are way shorter so I find it more difficult. Though that might also be because of how fast you’re playing the notes and chords

@ErikCPianoman 3 жыл бұрын

Good question. The trails are shorter due to the speed of the notes. The only way to remedy that would be to increase the tempo of the midi capture before recording. But then the notes would fly by very quickly, with a host of other drawbacks. Probably won’t be reuploading them as a result. You’re better off learning arrangements of that complexity with sheets tbh. Otherwise the playback speed controls on YT are your friend. Just beware that the midi is from a live performance so there’s bound to be mistakes/tiny inaccuracies. GL

@Emppu91 3 жыл бұрын

While I can barely comprehend your skills with the piano and respect them wholeheartedly, I also can't help but feel that sometimes your renditions of these classical VG tracks are perhaps a bit TOO bombastic and... with the lack of a better word; rash for their own good. I've noticed a similar thing with a couple of other tracks you've uploaded where you start out beautifully but then it quickly develops into a version where it looks like you're hammering the keys with all of your strength with a bunch of little vibratos and slides from one end of the entire notes to the other. I refer to a couple of old sayings with "less is more" and "simple is beautiful" which I think both are true and should not be forgotten. On this very video's description you say yourself "the music is always so calming" but I'd politely argue that by the time it hits the variation it's anything but calming. You can tell from the melody that it's still the same track but barely even comparable to what came before it.
