Piano Set #2 - 'Slightly Complex' (Idol, Shukusai no Elementalia, Witch's Waltz, Start Up)
11. YOASOBI - Idol
The amount of details I tried putting into this arrangement is ridiculous. From just the main melody and the bass pattern to the background vocals and the instrumentals. Probably the most complex cover I've attempted. This is also the first time I attempted the method of using multiple pianos instead of different voicings. Allowing me to have a clearer view when making covers.
Though, it does feel suffocating.
2. Ni-Sokkususu - Shukusai no Elementalia
Another test in using the 'multi-piano' method. I've managed to catch the running notes and change the leading melody by playing around the dynamics. This is very interesting since I get a much cleaner transition by shifting certain parts of the music on piano, making future covers to be more ear-catching in terms of detail.
3. Raki Kazuki - Witch's Waltz
Until now I still enjoy Raki's BGM and still have ideas on different kinds of variations. For this part I didn't really implement the multi-piano as I'm still comfortable in putting different voicings in one stave. But it's ineffective since they share one dynamic and most of the time the melody is completely flooded/muffled by the instrumental/vocals/bass. I have more fun covering Vtuber originals and OSTs (As shown from my Minato Aqua piano BGMs)
4. Psyqui - Start Up
I... Just tried... EDMs were crazy challenges for me due to the amount of sounds I need to closely listen, every detail helps out in creating an audible piano cover that is almost identical to the original. This is where I learned that an imbalanced bass can completely make the whole song drown.
Ah, about the hidden Megalovania, I was losing sanity during that time. Don't worry about it.
