I've really loved the collaborative potential of covering music from Friday Night Funkin'. It's awesome to have music to play that has such back and forth style so engraved and it also be such a huge draw. I'm delighted to hit up one of the most iconic FNF songs with Longestsoloever whose channel has been exploding due to his amazing covers of FNF. It's been absolutely awesome since he's been grinding the YouTube game for a very long time now and has an awesome catalog of video game covers so definitely check his stuff out and subscribe!

For this video, I decided to break out the tripod again to match our footage. It was a really fun challenge to try and get the most I could out of the still shots with camera shake effects, light leaks, and more intense transitions. Much easier to execute those effects when I've got handicam, but I think this really adds a more relatable and accessible music video and really focuses on the music performance.

South has probably one of the coolest drops in the OST so I took great care in focusing on how to execute it in this cover. I really opted for very simple backing stuff to bring the spotlight on the lead guitars. Arrangementwise I wanted to almost bring the song to a grinding hault vibewise so that once it picked up, it was a true punch to the gut.

The real challenge in this song was the polytonal bridge. When the clean section starts up, the lead guitars and backing chords and bass are in different keys which provide a very strange texture. I opted not to change anything and try to make it sound as clean as it does in the original. What I ended up opting for was adding slight pitch shifting to actually lead into the sound. I'm sure it won't sit well with everyone, but I really thought it was fun playing around with that.

Thanks so much for watching! Look out on Longestsoloever's channel for a potential collaboration there too that I'm sure many in the comments will request now that we've done this one! :)
