Besides, what I meant in the original post is that she looks close enough to the original one in my eyes. There was no need to disrespect her body anyways, and trust me not every guy in this world likes big tits.

@AlexanderTrapp 10 лет назад

I don't know what it is, but a lot of the music from the original Metroid and Super Metroid just sounds the absolute best on a piano. I do love a full orchestral arrangement for my game music, but there's something so complete and resonant when you play these themes on just one instrument such as this. Thanks for putting up this video. And you have every reason to smile at the end of these, they're awesome performances. :D

@OrlandoAponte 10 лет назад

Piano allows for harmonies and inner voices to be heard more clearly than any other musical medium, which is why it's often really refreshing to hear familiar music on a piano.

@AlexanderTrapp 10 лет назад

AbsoluteZ3R0 No wonder I tend to gravitate towards it so much. Thanks for the explanation. :D

@thepsynergist 10 лет назад

***** For 8-bit games, piano translates very well due to the simplistic sounds used to compose the themes. For those that know my work, I don't say simplistic as a means of having poor sound, quite the opposite. There's a charm that 8-bit houses and I feel as though piano strikes that same chord (bad music joke.) As always, Lara, very excellent piece. That octave shift at the end really sent it home. Seeing your music pop up in my subscription box always sends a smile on my face because I know that it will always be an excellent rendition. I hope to hear more work from you in the future. I might even do a request for you, if you ask me.

@lara6683 10 лет назад

***** I adore 8-bit, there is a certain charm that I think comes about due to the technical limitations of the console. Sometimes the voice leading is 'clumsy', but I guess composers really had to make the most of each track. OOoo that sounds exciting!

There is something sinister in 8-bit music that can't be duplicated in most other music. Your interpretation of Kraid's theme on the piano recaptures that sinister effect that I hear in the lower depths of Brinstar. Excelllent work.

@kummer45 10 лет назад

Oh yes, I remember, that generation. The classical and amazing music of Contra, Castlevania and Metroid. Such memories left a great influence on current video game music. Looks like the Japanese composers planted the seed for our times. Yes, I remember, those days when Space Harrier and Gyruss played in our ears for the first time. Japan made a good strike on our creativity. I thank them even today, their pride, dedication and creativity behind Nintendo left us this legacy. I'm glad that by Dummeh and this little sister here, Lara continue the tradition. They make a contribution to the theme. I'll wait patiently for an epic interpretation of Space Harrier. Andre Duracell made a great interpretation out of it. Great service, indeed...
