MusicWithDan - A Plea From Stars | 150,000 Notes | Impossible Piano | Black MIDI
59⊹ DESCRIPTION ⊹
🎹 So I'm back. I wanted to be direct and honest with y'all about what has been going on and what my plans are with this channel moving forward. So, around mid-October of last year, this channel was demonetized again. This has actually been an issue that has plagued this channel (as well as many other Black MIDI channels) for several years, and for me, has resulted in a loss of motivation to continue producing content. Life has gotten much busier for me as well so I don't have the time nor willpower to fight YouTube over monetization or make MIDIs myself anymore.
That being said, I miss uploading. I still love listening to Black MIDI music. And I feel a little bit of guilt for leaving behind this channel to pretty much rot away into the dust, given its size and influence as well. With this in mind, I want to pretty much have this channel become a showcase one to promote quality MIDIs and blackers that deserve more recognition (feel free to reach out if you would like me to share some of your work!). Just as a note - YouTube monetizes everything on the platform now, so even though my channel and videos are not monetized on my end, you may still see ads on them.
Alright. A Plea From Stars is an original song by @MusicWithDan, and is in my opinion one of the best original Black MIDI compositions out there. Everything about it is perfect, from the catchy and emotional melody to the progression and buildup of the song. It is also one of the few MIDIs out there that really focuses on the dynamics and tempo and executes them well.
If you didn't already know, MusicWithDan is the author behind the well-known Black MIDI arrangement of Megalovania, and tends to black in a more old-fashioned style. To be honest, I prefer this style over the more modern one. Everything fits well together and sounds good - tempo jumps and phrases tend to be way too overloaded in modern-style MIDIs for me. If you liked this, make sure to check out some of MusicWithDan's other works! Capital City Of Flowers is another one of his works that are among my favorites. I've left links to some of his works below.
