This is my absolute favorite video of his. I have this on all of my music players, old and new. I was able to find this vid even though I forgot what playlist it was saved on by just looking at the length of video time, because I had it memorized.
This is a medley of songs from the music game series beatmaniaIIDX: (0:00-2:06) 1. Piano Concerto No. 1 "Scorpion Fire" (ピアノ協奏曲第1番 “蠍火”) from 11th IIDX RED (2:07-4:02) 2. Nageki no Ki (Tree of Lament) (嘆きの樹) from 13th DistorteD (4:03-5:50) 3. MENDES from 15th DJ TROOPERS (5:51-7:56) 4. Mei (Dark) (冥) from 12th HAPPY SKY
The music is so full of energy but his hands move in such a natural and relaxed way! I enjoyed it so much that I had already clicked the Like button before the song was even halfway over, hahaha.
I tend to have the opposite problem. His music is just too awesome & fills me with so much energy that I cannot fall asleep with his playing in the background. Why would you fall asleep when you could listen to more of this awesomeness
Its interesting hearing Mendes with such good phrasing. It sounds so note-y in IIDX since it has to maintain the constant rhythm. You could try to feel the melody, but your greats would turn into poors.
