An iconic relaxing video game music track, I decided to take the classic Monster Hunter hub theme "Pokke Village" and make it into relaxing piano arrangement for the #SoundoleChillOut2021 contest!

So I did say on the last vid that I've been getting into Monster Hunter music...
The idea for making this chill cover actually first came from @Soundole announcing his annual Chillout Contest for 2021. Since I got 3rd place back in 2019 but didn't get to enter last year, I was wondering what track I should try out for this year. Now since I've been getting into Monster Hunter, of course I started watching a ton of videos by @gaijinhunter. In the background of a lot of his vids he plays this track, of which I've heard so much that I've unconsciously started whistling along with it whenever watching his vids! I thought it would be the perfect track to arrange into a long, calm, and relaxing tribute.
Honestly I didn't even realize that the track length maximum for the Soundole contest was 7 minutes, the arrangement just somehow ended up being that long after I came up with the ideas for it. I threw in a ton of the techniques I know and combined them with some of the fun arrangement bits from the Monster Hunter Jazz album version of this song. Even for a "slow & easy" song such as this, playing any tune for 7 minutes straight with little to no mistakes is a small marathon (especially with the tricky bits I added in every here and there for atmospheric flair). It took me a lot of work and effort to put this together, so I'd very much appreciate if y'all could put this on repeat for some background music to help relax & study to! Any support against the awful Youtube algorithm would be much loved and appreciated.
Now that I've covered Lon Lon Ranch, Crimson Sunset, National Park, AND Traverse Town, I realize that I've been covering a lot of town/village/locale themes this year. They've been some of my favorites to arrange/learn and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Your pianist,
DS
