my love mine all mine- mitski 8 bit cover @gleefulpebble

gleeful pebble everybody likes mitski huh? this is my favorite song off the album and it got requested no surprise there, short but incredibly sweet

a really interesting thing about this song is it’s tuned around 40 cents flat of a, which is about halfway between the keys of a and a flat, and although that made it very difficult to pick out chords by ear at first, it gave me a fun reason to use the detune function in my program once i figured out what was up. i think it’s really cool and totally worth the fuss, it gives it this really unique sound that works perfectly for the subject of the song.

it also makes it VERY suited for chiptune, as it has that kinda weird almost off-key but not really sound that chiptune sits in a lot of the time. listen to an old electronic instrument on low battery sometime, this is exactly what that sounds like and it’s great, very underutilized sound

anyways, i do not own this song, it is by mitski, go listen to it here: youtu.be/CwGbMYLjIpQ?si=aRQAlSRX2yeVzKaE

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/2epkw72w

gearing up for the halloween videos (look out for those every tuesday in october) which means i’m going to hold off on any requests for a bit while i’m doing those, you can still totally request anything i just won’t get to it until october is out, spooky month takes full priority

thanks for reading this if you read this, and have a great day

it must be summer- fountains of wayne 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-07-24 | who would have thought my youtube comeback would be with a fountains of wayne song? if anyone brings up stacy’s mom here i will go nuts, yes they did that song but they have a wide and interesting body of work that i’m a huge fan of, and this one is summer related so here we go

fountains of wayne really does have a talent for writing songs about situations that are kind of sad and pathetic but also very mundane and silly, like this one about being overheated and having no plans and seeing no people. you know, summer. if you’ve never heard it definitely go check it out, it’s my kind of summer vibe at least. the music goes very well with the theme too, going between laziness and nervous energy, and sounding mopey but not too serious about it, it’s really great writing

anyway i do not own this song, it is by fountains of wayne, go listen to it here: youtube.com/watch?v=Oym4sQgNAFQ

all that’s mine is the arrangement, you can check that out here: tinyurl.com/9ythprb6

so i know i have song requests still to get to that i probably should have done first, but honestly i’ve been pretty burnt out and have been finding it hard to get motivated to make videos, so i wanted to do one that was just for me to get back into it. i will get back to making videos, i just needed some time away for a bit. thanks for sticking with me, and thanks for reading this if you read this. have a great day

dead on arrival- fall out boy 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-04-25 | so this song is a request but it’s also one i’ve been meaning to do for a long time now. fall out boy is a band i love a lot, and this song is a classic

it’s fun and bouncy, which works well for chiptune, and i love representing electric guitars with the little 8 bit arpeggios. it’s a pretty natural fit and also just a great song. it sounds simple enough but each time a section repeats its varied slightly which keeps it interesting and more complex, and also patrick stump holds a VERY long note right at the end as he does a lot (seriously, seven bars? i was shocked, if i was writing a song like this i’d make it a little easier on myself, wouldn’t you?)

anyways i do not own the song, it is by fall out boy, go check out the official video here: youtu.be/qL02p9KhABo?si=iw28Vukw-yUmrHY0

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/555t2pd6

i’m going to try to keep the videos coming consistently as long as i can, but as always thanks for sticking with the channel if you’ve been here. thanks for reading this if you read this, and have a nice day

lobster- boy called cute 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-04-14 | so this is yet another request for a band i’ve never heard of before, but they seem pretty cool from this song at least

this song is an interesting one, it’s built around a fun baseline and cool chord loop that give it a lot of momentum, but the melody is really wandering and moody, it’s a cool feel for a song. the singer's voice also has a cool texture to it, i tried to emulate that with some vibrato and bitcrushing. it suits it pretty well for chiptune, glad i got introduced to it.

i do not own the song, it belongs to boy called cute, go listen to an official version here: youtu.be/USLtdCuIRgk?si=s-srEzCiN70cJReF

all that’s mine is the arrangement, which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/56xhnm5d

i still have a lot of requests to work through, the next one i’m going to tackle is one i’ve been excited about for a while. i should have plenty of time to really make a dent in the request list in the next few weeks, i know some people have been waiting for a while so sorry about that

anyways, thanks for reading this if you read this, and have a great day

remember my name- mitski 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-03-23 | i know i’ve been away for a bit, but the month’s not over yet so this does count as my uploading a chiptune cover in march.

anyway it’s another mitski cover, because everything she writes is just unbelievable. i mean seriously this song is like two minutes long but it feels like so much more with how much there is going on it. there’s a lot of dense chords here that make chiptune arrangements tricky, because i have to pick each note very carefully to make sure the sound is right with the few notes i can use, but i think i did alright

i do not own this song, it is by mitski, go listen to the official version here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LvQIZ1IqyFc

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was done in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/dzvttxvk

i know i’m always saying my life has been too hectic to work on the channel, but it seriously has been lately. most of the things should be clearing up soon, so i’m going to try and get through some of the requests i let build up, the list is like a mile long at this point but i’m getting through them. i’m also playing around with some original stuff, maybe i’ll post some of that in between covers if one takes a long time

as always, thanks for reading this if you read this, and have a nice day

tired and sick

gleeful pebble 2024-03-03 | i’ve been knocked out for two weeks by a sinus infection which among other things messes with my ability to hear pitches well somehow. being sick really throws a wrench in the cover process. anyway i made this while i was tired and sick hence the title

seven- taylor swift 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-02-13 | so today is my sister's birthday and she is pretty much the biggest swiftie i have met, possibly in the world. now while taylor swift is admittedly not really my thing, she asked for this for her birthday so here it is

i did actually find myself enjoying the song a lot, and i think it does work well with the chiptune treatment. it has a nostalgic vibe that a lot of 8 bit music sits in, and the music is mellow while still having a lot happening in it

i very much do not own this song, it is by taylor swift, go listen to an offical version here: youtu.be/pEY-GPsru_E?si=JsplWNfbW-T7LP-R

all that's mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: http://tinyurl.com/5asz47s9

mr brightside- the killers 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-02-03 | so, funny story: i was going through my files the other day and i noticed a completely done and edited video just sitting there. if i remember right, i finished this cover and then couldn’t decide if the verses were repetitive enough to be annoying, decided to sleep on it, and then forgot about it for ten months until i finally found it now

see the thing about mr brightside is that while the verses are great with lyrics, they are pretty much the same note with the same length a whole bunch, and i was concerned that just as an electronic beeping sound it would get annoying. but i listened back to it and it isn’t really bugging me so i’m posting it

mr brightside is a really fantastic song, and it’s built around this cool arpeggio that lets it sound bouncy and intense, which makes it perfect for chiptune. it’s a song that’s always moving and doing new things, which works really well since it has less parts than a lot of other songs out there (structurally it’s just two long verses and two even longer choruses, but it doesn’t sound like that at all because of how busy it gets. like it shifts to a 3-3-2 rhythm halfway through the chorus, it’s cool)

anyways i do not own this song, it is by the killers, go listen to the official version here: youtu.be/gGdGFtwCNBE?si=WMkq2ZmI-fiSyuRX

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: http://tinyurl.com/2p8e8kzn

i was actually really glad to find a video on hand because i have a mountain of requests to get through (which i am working on i promise) so it was nice to have another upload taken care of. expect more uploads soon, i am getting through the requests pretty steadily

thanks for reading this if you read this and have an amazing day

gilded lily- cults 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-01-24 | so i had never heard this song before, and i’m not familiar with the band cults, but this was a beautiful song

i think the way it alternates between quiet sections and loud sections really works in combination with the lyrics and it’s also cool to listen to. the fast arpeggios and powerful drums also make it a winning candidate for chiptune

i do not own this song, it is by cults, you can listen to the official version here: youtube.com/watch?v=X8NOGvc84xc

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can check that out here: http://tinyurl.com/4d68jyfh

it’s been hard to find time to work on videos lately with school and other music work i’ve been doing (which has been exciting and i’ll probably post some of it soon) but i’m finally on a break for a bit so hopefully i’ll be able to get through a couple of the requests i still have

anyways, thanks for reading this if you read this and have a fantastic day

together well ring in the new year- motion city soundtrack 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2024-01-01 | some people have a new year's tradition of resolutions, or watching the ball drop, but mine is listening to this song as it hits midnight

this song is just genuinely great and a really strong example in my mind of what makes emo lyrics great, the way they set up this specific, mundane situation that get to these universal feelings that feel big no matter how small or boring they are. it's really good basically is what i'm saying

musically speaking this song is incredibly simple, there's a guitar in the left ear, a a guitar in the right ear, and a vocal line, not even any percussion. this really works for the song and makes it super memorable next to some of the flashier songs motion city soundtrack has (which i also love don't get me wrong) this also makes it very well suited for chiptune with the whole three note at a time thing it has going on

i do not own this song, it is by the amazing motion city soudtrack, go listen to the official version here: youtu.be/SkB2zOvJt8k?si=BqCuDKlj56UyOjzk

all that's mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: http://tinyurl.com/yfsakhyr

i hope 2024 treats everyone well, i for one am looking forward to a new year and new opportunities. if you do resolutions, what's something you're working on this year? i'm going to try to commit more to the channel, maybe try to get two videos out a month. as always, i take song requests, so if there's a song you'd like me to cover for the channel, let me know and i will get to it as soon as i can

thanks for reading this if you read this and have a lovely day and year

paper bag- fiona apple 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-12-13 | so right off the bat this song is amazing. i had heard it once or twice before but after really sitting down to listen to it, i honestly can’t stop thinking about it it’s really great i need to go listen to more fiona apple

it’s also in 12/8 which i don’t normally work with which was cool, it’s got this triplet pulse in the background that’s hard to hear until the ending section because the rest of the drums are so strong, but listen for it it’s really cool

the song sounds like it’s only two sections but it’s actually really complicated, each verse and chorus layers new stuff on in the instrumental and i tried to replicate that in chiptune as best as i could. the chorus vocals also get more and more out of sync with the song as they repeat, but they’re still perfectly on beat which took a LONG time to get right. it has so much going on in it i’m really glad it got requested

i do not own this incredible song, it is by fiona apple and you can listen to the official version here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BK30r_SIZ-g

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: http://tinyurl.com/3687kye4

it’s been a month and a half since i last posted i believe?? but i am going to start getting around to the requests people have been leaving, sorry to keep people waiting on those. i’m going to hold myself to a more frequent upload schedule as best as i can

anyways, look out for more videos soon. thanks for reading this is you read this, and have a great rest of your day

anything can happen on halloween- tim curry 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-10-31 | why yes it is the tim curry song from the 1986 worst witch movie, which is apparently not a halloween classic for everyone which must change, i've never seen this movie in my life but this song is absolutely incredible

it's pretty much a given i wold give this one the chiptune treatment, it's rife with 80s synthesizers and 8 bit sounds are just less good 80s synthesizers if yo think about it. it's also just a fun bouncy song with nonsense lyrics, and the halloween feel is baked into the music so it keeps the spooky feel very well

as of now this song has not had any official release i can find so i don't have anything to link back to but i do not own this song, it is from the 1986 movie the worst witch as previously stated. all that's mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/3udn5ss3

i know i missed a week of these halloween uploads but i made it in time for the last one, sorry for everyone expecting five, there's always next year i'll never run out of halloween songs to do

thanls for reading this if you read this and have a fantastic halloween

necromancin dancin- bear ghost 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-10-17 | it might be too early to call this one a halloween classic, but at least for me the season isn’t complete without some necromancin dancin

this song is literally so awesome, the guitars are powerful and the synth parts are so cool, it’s very spooky and still danceable and fun, difficult combination but they pull it off perfectly

as for the chiptune of it all, the energy and the high synth parts made me think it would work well, it’s also got some arpeggios in there that 8 bit is suited for, it fits great

i do not own this song, it is by bear ghost (who have a new album out by the way it’s called jiminy and you should totally go listen to it) you can find the official version here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0RVeo79yfw0

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/3wzjn2fu

grim grinning ghosts 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-10-11 | well it’s october, the one month of the year i decide it’s worth it to tangle with the disney copyright bots, and so it is the song from the haunted mansion ride, which actually had a movie come out this year and was actually out on disney plus a week ago, haven’t seen it yet but hopefully this song is heavily featured it’s a classic halloween song

it also has a very long dissonant waltzy sort of intro that i got about halfway through transcribing before i listened back to it and realized it sounds terrible in chiptune so i cut the whole section, which has to happen sometimes. it’s really hard to hear in the mix but this song has one of the most fun bass lines i’ve heard, it really rules

anyways i SUPER do not own this song, it is a disney song from the haunted mansion that i do not believe has an official version up on youtube posted by disney themselves, so i’m linking this autogenerated one, hopefully that’s okay with disney: youtu.be/Q5pG1iTJukQ?si=6qMbLxwdD10jfGWn

had some life stuff come up this week that almost put me behind schedule but the power of spooky month is too strong and i was fine. only three weeks left now, what’s everyone’s favorite halloween candy? i like anything chocolate but especially the 100 grand bar, now THATS a halloween candy

thanks for reading this if you read this and have a nice rest of your day

love me dead- ludo 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-10-03 | four weeks to halloween, how's everybody feeling? got a costume picked out yet? big fan of ludo and this song is one of their best, a lot of their songs work as halloween songs but this one especially does i think

it sounds great in chiptune, and it has what i think is the most fun solo i've ever transcribed for this channel, seriously wanted to do this one for a while

i do not own this song, it belongs to ludo, go listen to the official version here: youtube.com/watch?v=DrQgUfkYhic

all that's mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/2p956xkc

big things coming up in the next couple weeks, lots of great halloween songs every tuesday until the 31st so make sure you've got notifications on, you don't wanna miss them

as always, thanks for reading this if you read this and have a great day

eye in the sky- alan parsons project 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-09-23 | sure is a wide variety of music on this channel huh? would never have thought to cover this song, but it actually works really well. it’s a really pretty song and the chiptune brings that out, i’m glad it got requested

this song does not belong to me, it’s by the alan parsons project, you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/56hqrlQxMMI?si=2JvulujHL6Qr07-_

thanks for reading this if you read this, and have a great day

cali sun- ocean grove 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-08-22 | another request, another cool summer song for the end of summer, never heard it before but it sounds sick. it’s funny that this song is about california because according to my analytics a pretty significant majority of my viewers from the us are in california, like five to ten times more than most of the other states. not sure why i’m a hit with the california demographic but if you’re from california, thanks for all the support

anyways the song is super cool, it’s got a lot of layers to it and some very intense guitars, and it is LOUD, which is tricky to make sound good in 8 bit but i think i made it work. the intro coming back at the end would work great for looping the song, so it sounds great as a sort of boss battle chiptune song

i do not own the song, it belongs to ocean grove, go listen to the original here: youtu.be/VZGxh_4bFPQ

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/3pdy7uc3

i know it’s been a bit since the last upload, i’ve been super busy with work and general life stuff, but i finally have time to work on the channel again, so things are looking up and hopefully i’ll get more uploads out very soon

thanks for reading this if you read this, and have a great rest of your day

barbie girl- aqua 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-07-22 | who else is excited to see the barbie movie or has already seen it? i don’t even see it until tomorrow so i can’t make any references to what happens in it but i will just assume it was fantastic

anyways barbie girl is a really fun song, which is strange cause it’s in a minor key and can easily sound pretty dark once you take away the lyrics. i think that makes it pretty suited for chiptune, it’s got an energetic and bouncy melody while still sounding pretty intense. basically this barbie is a boss battle

i absolutely do not own the song, it’s by aqua go listen to it here: youtu.be/ZyhrYis509A

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/3nzx8te3

please no spoilers in the comments about the barbie movie, i haven’t seen it yet but let me know what you thought about it if you have seen it, movie of the summer or what?

if you’d like me to cover a song you like, feel free to let me know in the comments and i’ll get to it as soon as i have time

thanks for reading this if you read this and have a great day

be nice to me- the front bottoms 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-06-30 | it sure is summer, huh? i know summer songs are supposed to be fun but this song feels super summery to me, not sure why

it’s a good song for chiptune cause it’s very bouncy plus i think guitar sounds great as a 25% wave so that’s always fun to do. also i just really like the front bottoms

speaking of which, this song is not mine, it is by the front bottoms, you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/QhcAJC_3heA

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/m54pwy8

anyways hope everybody’s having a good summer and staying away from the sun (or going outside if you do that sort of thing) i’m hoping to upload more frequently so stay tuned there’s more songs on the way

thanks for reading this if you read this and have a nice day

pay me back- rare americans 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-06-14 | i got this request and i thought i had never heard of rare americans before but then i listened to the song and i realized they did hullabaloo which i think is a really fun song, this is also a cool one so i guess i need to check these guys out more

this song is structured really well for chiptune because it has defined sections that don’t really repeat instead of a verse chorus thing, and that’s how a lot of the old 8 bit songs were written, so it works great

i do not own this song it is by rare americans, go listen to the official version here: youtu.be/oU_SvWqlRUw

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/4da3p6pj

life has been pretty hectic but my schedule should be wide open for the next few weeks so i’ll probably put out a few more videos since i’ll have the time

anyways thanks for reading this is you read this and have a great rest of your day

everything is alright- motion city soundtrack 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-05-22 | so motion city soundtrack rules and of course i was going to do more than one of their songs. and everything is alright is great because you get the catharsis of being very upfront about your mental health issues AND the catharsis of being very sarcastic about your mental health issues all in one song

it also works very well as a chiptune song, it’s very upbeat sounding without being too fast, and it has all this fun panning going on, it’s fantastic

i do not own this song, it belongs to motion city soundtrack, you can find the official version here: youtu.be/SY-c-_sZ8LI

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox, check that out here: tinyurl.com/ycxch8jx

atom bomb- red vox 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-05-16 | not familiar with this band or this song whatsoever but just based off of this song at least they rule i’m gonna have to start listening to these guys

doing rock stuff in chiptune is always a little weird, distortion usually sounds very cool when it’s guitar and very very bad when it’s just electronic noise, and 8 bit sounds a little wonky in lower octaves sometimes and that’s where this song sits, but i think it sounds actually really cool in chiptune anyway

i do not own this song it is by red vox, you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/MbTggEMAtHs

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/yxp9p4bw

gearing up for summer, planning to devote more time to the channel and experiment with some new kinds of content (and also a different daw maybe? i love jummbox but i feel like the browser experience is getting a little clunky for me idk we’ll see. maybe i’d miss their color palates too much to ever use something else) but anyway exciting times so stay tuned

anyways thanks for reading this if you read this and have a great rest of your day

mad iqs- i don’t know how but they found me 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-05-11 | now this is a song for chiptune. i actually love idkhow (every song from razzmatazz is a banger) but their songs are so layered that i never felt up to covering one, so i’m glad this request came in so i could finally push myself to do one of their songs

and again, what a song. the baseline is fun and there’s lots of little details that work great for 8 bit sounds. started to remind me of that take a hint song from victorious the more i had to listen to it for this cover, maybe you hear it but mostly i feel like i’m going crazy about that haha

i do not own this song, it belongs to i don’t know how but they found me, you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/HboQUmDY0To

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, check that out here: tinyurl.com/4z243ncs

i have another request to get to next and then i’m free, maybe i’ll do another motion city soundtrack one cause they are underrated as hell

anyways thanks for reading this if you read this and have a great rest of your day

rule #4- fish in a birdcage 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-04-29 | requests are great for seeing new music and i had definitely never heard this one before but it sure is something

very intricate and EXTREMELY fast, the amount of time it took me to figure out some of those fiddle runs and i’m still not even sure if half of them are right

what’s definitely right is that runs like that make great arpeggios and no instrument does those better than chiptune ones, so this was a great fit

i do not own this song, credit goes to fish in a birdcage, go watch the official version here: youtu.be/_Cg_DkU4j4s

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/26f5x8rx

if you’ve seen my shorts you know i’ve been messing around with a keyboard, maybe you’ll see some of that for a proper video once my skills are better, so don’t expect it any time soon lol but one day probably

anyways thanks for reading this is you read this and have a nice rest of your day

the future freaks me out- motion city soundtrack 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-04-22 | it’s always wild to listen to a song about what’s current twenty years after it was written huh?

but seriously. this is an great song and motion city soundtrack is an great band, and a lot of there songs sound great in chiptune which i think is due to the fantastic synth parts, they really have such a great sound

speaking of, this song is owned by motion city soundtrack it does not belong to me, go listen to the official version here: youtu.be/i_nT6ojWzxo

gleeful pebble 2023-03-26 | now this is my all time favorite paramore song, and i figured i would try it in chiptune and surprise surprise paramore always sounds awesome, also i feel like this song has a boss battle energy that works really well in 8 bit

it’s cool that paramore is releasing new music and i really like it so far, maybe i’ll cover one of the new songs at some point they’re very good

i do not own this song it belongs to paramore, you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/OH9A6tn_P6g

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can check that out here: tinyurl.com/zb646j62

i don’t have a ton of free time coming up to work on the channel so reasonably i shouldn’t be putting out that many videos but we’ll see if that stops me or if i just ignore the other things to make more youtube videos it’s anyones guess

as always thanks for reading this if you read this, if you want me to cover a song you can let me know in the comments and i hope you have a nice day

trying to play pokemon center

gleeful pebble 2023-03-25 | i know i should probably wait until i actually know how to play the piano before posting anything like this but i am not doing that so

expect me to be much better at this before you see it in a real video

behind every good woman- tracy bonham 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-03-19 | i would have never thought of covering a song of this style so i’m glad it got requested, i didn’t think it would work but it actually really does

there’s not a lot of parts to it which is refreshing but it’s also a challenge in its own way, a small amount of instruments still have their own textures and sounds to them that make them interesting in a way 8 but instruments aren’t really, takes some time to make it sound as nice in a chiptune style but i find that fun so

anyways i do not own this song, it is by tracy bonham and you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/Aqsmbqqc5bg

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/4uw8a3m2

as always, thanks for reading this if you read this and i hope you enjoy the rest of your day

when one effect isn’t good enough, try all of them

gleeful pebble 2023-03-14 | this is definitely good music advice just put every effect on every instrument at maximum intensity it’s sure to sound great

burning pile- mother mother 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-03-02 | yet another request and another band i’m not familiar with, because despite seeing these guys pop up in what feels like every spotify playlist ever made, i have not sat down and listened to a lot of mother mother, this was a very cool song

i was surprised at how complex it was also, i mean there was a part that was in threes randomly and a lot of other surprises, and it has a lot of different sounds in it i can’t do in chiptune so i just cranked up the reverb a lot hope that captures some of how dense it sounded

anyways you know the drill i do not own this song it is by mother mother and you can listen to an official version here: youtu.be/_ikArCV_zD0

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/5h5sdcaa

if any long term subscribers are wondering why i’m uploading so much recently it’s because i’m avoiding the more pressing things i’m supposed to be doing haha. i’ll probably have to slow down again to go do those things but i hope you’re enjoying all the recent content it’s been fun

and hey if you’re not subscribed, why not give that a try? chances are if you liked this cover you’ll want to watch the next one

either way thanks for reading this if you read this and i hope you’re having a great day

april- beach bunny 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-02-18 | hey it’s another request, not familiar with beach bunny but this song is fantastic and i think it really works in chiptune

this song does not belong to me, it’s by beach bunny and you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/BAK3hYK-SdI

all that’s mine is the arrangement which i made in jummbox, you can find that here: tinyurl.com/adfbytck

gleeful pebble 2023-02-10 | so i guess you guys really like mitski huh?

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox, check that out here: tinyurl.com/3f8am9xb

anyways thanks for reading this if you read this and have a nice day

dasher- gerard way 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2023-01-15 | been a bit huh? (unless you count the short but don’t count the short it was a funny little experiment but i’m still not doing shorts)

anyways have a nice day

kitchen sink- twenty one pilots 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-12-04 | it’s another request! not familiar with twenty one pilots (i only knew them as the blurryface guys before this) but this is a really nice song and i enjoyed working on it

this song is owned by twenty one pilots. although there doesn’t seem to be an official version that i can find (let me know in the comments if i just missed it and then i’ll put it here) so i hope they don’t mind if i just link to my arrangement which was made in jummbox, you can find it here: tinyurl.com/mvwwdsjr

took a break for all of november cause i got kinda burned out after the whole halloween thing but i am back now so expect more epic content soonish maybe no promises

thanks for reading this if you read this and have a great rest of your day

monster mash 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-10-31 | hey guess what day it is

also this fantastic song is not mine, it’s by bobby pickett and the crypt kickers, listen to an official version here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tsPdVsIXqzU

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox, which you can listen to here: tinyurl.com/bp7zzuyc

halloween 3.5- rozwell kid 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-10-24 | this isn’t as well known a halloween song but it has halloween in the title and i like it so it’s here plus i think it works great in chiptune

also, this song is not mine, it’s rozwell kid’s and you can listen to it here: youtu.be/3LecgrMUpjw

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox which you can listen to here: tinyurl.com/yc7ap9fc

anyways one week until halloween who’s excited i’m excited take your guesses what the final halloween song is gonna be next monday

i’m probably going to go back to one song a month after this, it’s been fun but way more difficult to get a bunch of songs out, so the regular upload schedule is coming back until i get more time

thanks for being here and have a nice day

this is halloween 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-10-17 | a lot of key changes in this one. like a lot

anyways i’m sure there’s a million chiptune versions of this but it’s a classic and of course i was doing it for the halloween thing

i do not own this song, you can listen to the official version here: youtu.be/ZVuToMilP0A or go watch the movie nightmare before christmas

i made the arrangement in jummbox and you can listen to that here: tinyurl.com/4zzz7xvr

only two mondays left in october now, got some great ones coming up for the last two songs so stay tuned tell your friends etc etc

hope you enjoyed the song and have a nice day

ghostbusters 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-10-10 | it’s another monday and another halloween song, this week it’s ghostbusters which kinda counts technically i think

anyway it’s a fun song not much to say about it i think pretty much everybody likes ghostbusters

i do not own the song, you can go listen to it here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe93CLbHjxQ

just the arrangement is mine made in jummbox and you can listen to that here: tinyurl.com/dbptm69t

been having a bunch of things get copyright claimed recently so fingers crossed it doesn’t happen with this one

make sure to watch out for next mondays cover, set notifications if you need to, or don’t i’m not your boss, just only a few of my subscribers seem to be watching my videos so i feel like it’s a notification thing since i don’t really have an upload schedule, so if you don’t have notifications on and you want to watch more of my videos, that’s a thing you could try if you feel like it

okay that’s enough self promotion from me, have a nice rest of your day

spooky scary skeletons- andrew gold 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-10-03 | a dead meme, you say? i think you mean an UNDEAD meme

but yeah it’s a modern classic of a halloween song that works great in chiptune so i had to get around to it eventually, some of these parts are so fast it took me forever to pick out notes but i think it worked out alright

i do not own this song it was written by andrew gold and you can listen to the original here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7-D83f33pAE

my arrangement was made in jummbox and you can listen to that here: tinyurl.com/5xk9cbv7

stay tuned, i’m putting out a halloween song every monday of october so enjoy the frequent uploads while i still have the holiday spirit to do so

and as always hope you enjoy the song and have a nice day

i put a spell on you (hocus pocus) 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-10-01 | i know what you’re thinking, three uploads in one month, did your channel get hacked by someone with a better upload schedule?

but seriously i love hocus pocus, and i’m very excited to watch hocus pocus 2 which i haven’t done yet because i have been spending so many hours of this day making this cover, now that it’s done i can’t wait to see what the sanderson sisters are up to

anyway i don’t have an official album version to link back to this time (which is what made transcribing this so difficult, the music is already mixed a lot softer than the voices so picking it out through crowd noise was a l o t. very fun tho i love this song) but i do not own this song i just made this arrangement that you can see here: tinyurl.com/4aa9hh69

i have a bunch of halloween covers coming up for october so look forward to that, and as always thanks for watching hope you have a great day

refraction- original 8 bit song

gleeful pebble 2022-09-24 | 100 subscribers that’s pretty cool, thanks for following my channel and as promised here’s an original song

i don’t know what else to say it feels weird not having to credit anyone else

anyway hope you like the song i’ll probably put more out soon alongside the covers, still at least one cover a month my songs will just be extra i guess

stay soft- mitski 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-09-05 | don’t really know what to say about this one since i’m not to familiar with mitski, that’s right this one was a request

if you want a song you like covered in the chiptune style you can let me know what song in the comments and i will cover it

i really like taking requests like this cause it introduces me to new music that i wouldn’t have found otherwise

also we are very close to 100 subscribers, once we get there i’m planning on putting out some original stuff so stay tuned tell your friends like and subscribe etc you already know how youtube works

anyways i do not own the right to this song, it belongs to mitski, listen to the real song here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cNwy1Th4NYo

and my cover was made in jummbox, here’s the project if you want it: tinyurl.com/3nsma89k

thanks for reading the description have a great day

you and i- ingrid michaelson 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-08-11 | really love this song (although i did think it was called let’s get rich for many years) and i thought it felt summery, it’s just really simple and nice and chiptune can be great for simple softer songs so i made this

getting pretty close to 100 subscribers which is super cool, might release some original stuff when we get there we’ll see

i do not own this song, rights go to ingrid michaelson, and you can listen to the original song here: youtu.be/ps6aN4sWX68

all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox, you can view the project here: tinyurl.com/48y6tcnd

thanks for reading this far and have a nice day

kill all your friends- my chemical romance 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-06-17 | bet you weren’t expecting this for the pride month cover

but seriously it’s crazy i haven’t had an mcr song yet, and i thought this one would work well in chiptune, plus it’s wildly underrated so this is what you get

but if you have an actual pride song you’d like me to cover, feel free to request it i’m just bad at knowing music and default to emo songs

anyways you know the drill, i do not own this music, all the song rights go to my chemical romance, it’s just the arrangement that’s mine

listen to the actual song here: youtu.be/BQndQV9E8C8

and check out the project made in jummbox here: tinyurl.com/y36dcrxd

thanks for reading this if you read this, and happy pride!

knife in the coffee- car seat headrest 8 bit cover

gleeful pebble 2022-05-21 | surprise i’m a car seat headrest fan

didn’t mean for this months video to get done so late, been busy with school but hey summer is coming up so you might be able to expect a more frequent upload schedule, no promises but i will try

also i put a little message in the end of the video cause i’m genuinely not sure if anybody reads these descriptions i might just be talking to the void here hello void (but seriously if the message is annoying feel free to let me know and i’ll stop doing it)

also i do not own the song, all rights go to car seat headrest, all that’s mine is the arrangement which was made in jummbox

you can listen to the original song here: youtu.be/bK7DR_COX4I

and here’s the jummbox link if you want it: tinyurl.com/2p8fbsa4

as always if you have a song you’d like to be covered feel free to comment and request it
