A cover of "Lake Theme" (aka "Lake Verity") from the game Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum and it's remake, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl.
As Pokemon is without a doubt my favourite franchise of all time, I was super hyped for the Sinnoh remakes and definitely enjoying the game so far! I'm perfectly happy covering any track from any of the games, however this one was a pick from Noble, and was an interesting challenge.
It's a very chill, almost jazzy song, using lots of interesting chords, and I didn't want to lose that vibe, however I still wanted to add some high energy metal riffs in there, so my goal with this song was to make something like Rush mixed with Periphery. I tried to keep certain parts of the song with clean guitar to keep some focus on the chill vibe, and then with the heavier parts, I came up with riffs that outlined the chords, as I didn't want to lose the sound of those extended chords. The most difficult part of the song was by far learning the crazy arpeggios! I knew it would sound good on a synth (which I also kept in there) but the stubborn part of me wanted to learn them and thought it would sound super cool on guitar, so I tried my damned best to play it! In terms of the mix, I don't think it was too difficult, the hardest bit was trying to keep the arpeggios and the melody guitars from overlapping. But hopefully I did a good job and you enjoy this cover!
