More about the piece:

Hey everyone! This weeks video is something special. As many of you already know, I absolutely love the Animal Crossing series and I've covered a few pieces of AC music in the past. I have a particular fondness for the soundtrack of the original Animal Crossing game for Gamecube. It's eclectic mix of punchy drum beats and silly instrumentals are wholly unique and charming. The music for 7AM perfectly encapsulates what is so special about the games unique character and I've been desperate to arrange the piece for my channel. This video cover is something I've been working on for several weeks and I actually started an early version of this arrangement almost a year ago. I'm so excited to be able to share this with you all!

This video could not have been possible without the help from some incredible people. I was lucky enough to have some close friends and my wife help me make this project come to fruition.

Huge thanks to @Leah Von Photos for the amazing outdoor photography. Such an incredible photographer and wonderful person. I've had the pleasure of working with Leah for a few projects now and it's always a wonderful experience.

Another thanks to Nicholas Bonstin for performing the bass guitar and for additional outdoor photography. That last panning shot from the melodica to the sunlit tree canopy really added to the ambiance of the video. Nick is an incredible guitarist and all around musician.

Finally, a huge thank you to my wife, Katie, for all the indoor instrumental camerawork. It was impossible to get the right energy and motion with my traditional static shots, so having someone like Katie record some handheld camerawork really made the video what it is. Katie is one of the most incredible musicians I know and a person of many talents. She has joined us in the past to perform flute on a couple of arrangements and It was wonderful to get to work with her again. Thank you so much, Sweetie!
