Eien no Fuzai Shoumei - Detective Conan Movie 24: The Scarlet Bullet [Piano]

With the recent world-wide simultaneous release of the Detective Conan Movie 24, I went to the cinema a few days ago and I was absolutely amazed at the movie theme song 「Eien no Fuzai Shoumei」by Tokyo Jihen.
It really has to be heard to be believed, because the unique chord progressions in the chorus with that chromatic melody line was so unconventional, and yet it made perfect musical sense - it was literally fanservice for my musical ears. Huge kudos to the brilliant Sheena Ringo for coming up with awesome musical ideas like this.
Since this is one of the jazzier piano arrangements, I had a lot of fun to experiment with rhythmic bass patterns in the left hand. The best example would be the "bass guitar" interjections in 0:15 and 1:02. You have to jump very quickly in the left hand, but the resulting rhythmic energy was simply irresistible.
I also made use of the sostenuto pedal (aka the "middle pedal" in grand pianos) to hold down the bass note in 1:16 and 1:23, because I wanted to play this section as clean as possible. If I would use the normal pedal, everything would sound too muddy.
Another side note: Did you know that Detective Conan Movies have 24 different version of its famous main theme? I always look forward to hear the newest version of the main theme with each years movie release. And this year's version was really one of the coolest I have ever heard with the syncopation in the bridge part!
Give it a try and compare each version against each other. I guarantee you, it's absolutely fun to notice the tiny details, from the different usage of instruments, how the rhythms are always slightly changing and how each bridge part has a different key change.

Alright, consider today's upload as a spontaneous "fanboy" arrangement since I am still working on the next "official" weekly video scheduled for this weekend!
Thank you for reading and see you next time!
