EVERYTIME I DIE
One of the greatests song by Finnish Death Metal band Children of Bodom. I'm playing a combination of guitars and synthesizer parts on medieval Hammered Dulcimer. The tune is scaled to E-minor (2 semitones upwards) to facilitate playing on this instrument. I couldn't find a way to interprete the keyboard solo without losing its awesome vibe, so I decided to leave it aside, unfortunately.
Credits :
Hammered Dulcimer (transcription and playing): Val Cortoni
Recording, production, mixing & mastering: Val Cortoni
Video editing : Val Cortoni
Thumbnail design : Clem CH
Swamp graveyard artwork by Connor Fischer (connorfischera...)
Technical details : My hammered dulcimer is a Roger Frood Dove 4-13-13-5 Chromatic model.Virtual instruments I used are Groove Agent 5 (drums), Halion Sonic 3 (bass, keyboards), Karoryfer Cute Emily (virtual guitars) with Cubase's 10.5 virtual amp. For the backing track, I've used a commonly found MIDI score as a starting point, and strongly edited it to achieve a decent sound on my virtual instruments.
RIP Alexi, thank you for the incredible pieces of art you left.

This shows Alexi’s genius composing! His classical music knowledge transverses across all forms of music! The main verse is just tailor made for the Dulcimer sound. I wish Janne used this in the original!

@ValCortoni 3 года назад

Thank you so much :) I got really amazed when I first transcribed some COB to the dulcimer, their songs, especially from the 3-4 first albums (which rely less on sheer heaviness), sound really wild on dulcimer without doing any fancy stuff. It made me truly realize how well written COB songs are, I love them even more for that!

@MysticTheDarkElf 10 месяцев назад

When you think about it, the Dulcimer is the precursor to the piano, and a key(heh) component to CoB music are the mixing of keyboard and guitar.

@Bilbosilius_Zwackelbaggins 3 года назад

Got the song randomly stuck in my head for the last hour, so I turned it on and immediately off again, thinking "Wait a minute, why would I listen to the original? It doesn't have a Dulcimer" and came back here.

@Leitosssssss 3 года назад

Awesome! :) It fits perfectly, but it also sounds like dulcimer is an medieval ancestor of keyboard, is it not? You could not carry around piano or harpsichord, same like today, but it seems like you could carry around dulcimer , same like you can keyboards today, if they used to be this size back then too. It is fascinating to hear people play all these instruments, but what is not less fascinating to me is, who came up with these ideas and constructions back then. I would love to see the life of person who created that, how he lived, what he was doing for living, why he decided to create this, what experience he had before etc. It probably started small and was scaled up over decades by various people to the final form of these instruments, but it is still impressive feat of creativity. How strong "musicality" was and is in people.

@ValCortoni 3 года назад

Hey, thank you for your kind words! Yes dulcimer is the ancestor of piano, before keyboard + hammer mechanism + damper system was added. European dulcimer roughly dates back to the late Middle-Ages (13th century) : it is basically a medieval psaltery but played with hammers instead of plucked. So dulcimer became first of the modern piano line (metal strings struck with hammers). And psaltery went on with its life to give the harpsichord (keyboard + plucking mechanism + dampers). I agree it's so fascinating to learn how modern instruments take their roots :) Take care !
