Super Mario Bros Live! - Score Reduction & Analysis for Jazz Orchestra (The 8-Bit Big Band) The 8-Bit Big Band 2021-03-23 | SUPER MARIO BROS FULL ORCHESTRA SCORE ANALYSIS FROM THIS VIDEO:youtu.be/2cRPzzZV8u0Here's one for all the fellow musicians and arrangers out there! We teamed up with the amazing Brad Frey from the YouTube Channel "Film Score Analysis" and asked him to create one of his amazing score analyses of our iconic video suite of the first two worlds from the original Super Mario Bros arranged for full sized studio jazz orchestra! If you haven't seen the original video, I recommend clicking the link above to check out the final product before jumping into this analysis. Essentially what I did here is capture video footage of the first two worlds of Super Mario Bros, remove ALL the audio and then build a tempo map that synched up with the game play and re-arrange all of the music for 58 piece orchestra and choir, essentially treating this piece of music like a film scoring recording session. I hope this will give all of you out there an inside look into what goes into creating an arrangement for our incredible orchestra. Brad did an amazing job of color coding and annotating what exactly I was thinking when I was adapting the most famous video game score of all time to the full orchestra setting, scoring the gameplay like a film to create a musical suite of all of the themes from the game!Brad has accomplished an incredible feat of copy work and score preparation with his youtube channel, making me feel incredibly seen as a composer! He himself is an insanely talented musician and deserves your sub and support as well!CHECK OUT BRAD'S FILM SCORE ANALYSIS CHANNEL HERE!youtube.com/channel/UCk_jzTmW2Fmfnm70c2kZHpQ8BBB on Socials:Instagram ► instagram.com/the8bitbigbandDiscord ► discord.gg/nKnpAv5TikTok ► tiktok.com/@the8bitbigbandTwitter ► twitter.com/the8bitbigbandFULL ALBUMS AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES and BANDCAMP!Spotify ► https://spoti.fi/2DaYx69BandCamp ► the8bitbigband.bandcamp.comApple Music ► itunes.apple.com/us/artist/the-8-bit-big-band/1397902589Amazon Music ► amzn.to/35QHtjpFULL ORCHESTRA CREDITS:Conductor/Arrangement/Orchestration/Bandleader - Charlie RosenHarp - Lianne ClineFlute - Mira MagrillOboe - Steve LyonBassoon - Jenice RosenAlto Sax 1 - Andrew GouldAlto Sax 2 - Josh PlotnerTenor Sax 1 - Sam Dillon (solo on world 2-3)Tenor Sax 2 - Zac ZingerBaritone Sax - Andrew GutauskasTrumpet 1 - Bryan DavisTrumpet 2 - John LakeTrumpet 3 - Gabe Medd (solo on world 1-2)Trumpet 4 - Danny JonokuchiTrombone 1 - Alex JeunTrombone 2 - Jimmy O'Connell Trombone 3 - Mariel BildstenTrombone 4 - Becca PattersonViolin 1 - Katie Kresek (CM), Tomoko Akaboshi, Lavinia Pavlish, Frederique Gnaman, Mary Jo Stilp, Emily GelineauViolin 2 - Kiku Enomoto, Sita Chay, Kevin Kuh, Ally Jenkins, Ellie Goodman, Erikka WalshViola - Tia Allen, Elise Frawley, Will Marshall, Sarah GreeneCello - Alon Bisk, Marta Bagratuni, Susan MandelPiano - Natalie TennenbaumGuitar/Tres - Charlie RosenBass - Adam NeelyDrums - Jared SchonigMallets - Sarah TompkinsCongas/Bongos/Hand Perc - Wilson TorresRoland SPD 1 - Jamie EblenRoland SPD 2 - Josh BaileySopranos - Danielle Gimbal, Kate Bullock, Jane Kivnic, Grace ChoiAltos - Gracie Nash, Ashley Sweetman, Badia Farha, Jane BruceTenors - George Slotin, Vanjah Boikai, Troy Burton, Josh Greenblatt, Sommer CarbucciaBaritones - Sean Switzer, Josh Page, Keith White

I Wanna Take You for a Ride *FULL SONG!* from Marvel vs Capcom 2 - ft. Lawrence (The 8-Bit Big Band) The 8-Bit Big Band 2024-02-09 | IT'S MAHVEL BABY!! Finally we know what the rest of the song is!So excited to finally drop this video of "I Wanna Take You for a Ride" aka the character select screen from Marvel vs Capcom 2. This track is based on the original 8 second loop that plays from that game, but expanded with additional music and lyrics as if it were a FULL SONG. I loved listening to the original loop so much that I couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if the iconic vocal loop would be if it were the chorus of a full length song, so I asked my dear friends from the band Lawrence to come in an help me co-compose the rest of the imaginary tune, and this is the incredible result! Clyde Lawrence, who wrote the lyrics, did an amazing job incorporating some great references to the MvC2 game and community itself!!I also couldn't help myself as an arranger but draw countless funky easter eggs from one of the greatest horn bands of all time "Tower of Power" see how many you can catch!!Lots of new videos coming your way so be sure to like and subscribe!Follow The 8-Bit Big Band on social for behind the scenes video and updates on new stuff!Instagram ► instagram.com/the8bitbigbandDiscord ► discord.gg/nKnpAv5TikTok ► tiktok.com/@the8bitbigbandTwitter ► twitter.com/the8bitbigbandthe8bitbigband.comFULL ALBUMS AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES and BANDCAMP!Spotify ► https://spoti.fi/2DaYx69BandCamp ► the8bitbigband.bandcamp.comApple Music ► itunes.apple.com/us/artist/the-8-bit-big-band/1397902589Amazon Music ► amzn.to/35QHtjp"The 8-Bit Big Band" is a 30-65 member Jazz/pops orchestra that formed to celebrate and realize some of the best themes from video game music from all consoles and eras arranged in a large ensemble Jazz/Pop/Rock setting!

Super Mario World Overworld Theme - Big Band Jazz Ballad version (The 8-Bit Big Band) The 8-Bit Big Band 2023-11-27 | From the Super Nintendo classic, here is the "Overworld Theme from Super Mario World" in the style of the legendary Jazz Ballad "Lil Darlin" composed by Neil Hefti for the Count Basie Orchestra. Note: The sharp eared listeners of The 8-Bit Big Band will recognize elements of this arrangement as sounding very similar to our recent arrangement of "Mabe Village" from Link's Awakening, this is because I actually conceived of this particular song in this arranging style first for our 4th album "Game Changer", but due to recording licensing issues was unable to include it on the album, and so I arranged "Mabe Village" instead with the same vibe and song form to take this tune's spot on the album in the exact same Jazz ballad style. The silver lining is now we have 2 west coast chill Jazz ballads of video game music classics in our library.

Can You Feel the Sunshine? from Sonic R - Up Tempo Big Band Version (The 8-Bit Big Band) The 8-Bit Big Band 2023-11-21 | Joel Waggoner is featured in this up-tempo Swing/Broadway opening number inspired arrangement of "Can You Feel the Sunshine?" from Sonic R. for the Sega Saturn (1997). Originally a more electronic music/house inspired track, the lyrics and chord changes to me always felt like they would be right at home in a Judy Garland/Frank Sinatra inspired setting as the opening for some kind of mid-century variety show.

Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement - Big Band Jazz Version (The 8-Bit Big Band) The 8-Bit Big Band 2023-08-10 | *ALSO AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES AND BANDCAMP!*Here's a little side project for you! In between recording video game tunes the gang and I decided to have some fun and record an up-tempo swing arrangement of Beethoven's classic 3rd movement from the seminal "Moonlight Sonata"! Most people are familiar with the 1st movement of this great piece, which is beautiful and haunting, but the 3rd movement has always stuck with me as an incredibly powerful and dramatic piece of music. I wanted to pay tribute to this great composer 8BBB style while showcasing the INCREDIBLE musicianship in this band! For those who don't know, we do not rehearse music before we record it. These absolute stone cold incredible musicians here in NYC came in and read this sheet music the day of the recording session, and let me tell you this arrangement is HARD. I myself tried to learn it on piano, but could never get it up to full speed so I arranged it for my friends to play instead :)So I hope you enjoy this slight detour from our usual video game music repertoire and indulge the music nerd in all of us with some Ludwig Van. Thanks for listening!! The sheet music for this will be available soon on our website once I get it cleaned up and ready for release, but again I warn you, this arrangement is extremely difficult and I can’t in good conscious recommend that it should be attempted by anybody as it is INCREDIBLY challenging but I certainly can’t stop you from trying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Lots of new videos coming your way so be sure to like and subscribe!Follow The 8-Bit Big Band on social for behind the scenes video and updates on new stuff!Instagram ► instagram.com/the8bitbigbandDiscord ► discord.gg/nKnpAv5TikTok ► tiktok.com/@the8bitbigbandTwitter ► twitter.com/the8bitbigbandthe8bitbigband.comFULL ALBUMS AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES and BANDCAMP!Spotify ► https://spoti.fi/2DaYx69BandCamp ► the8bitbigband.bandcamp.comApple Music ► itunes.apple.com/us/artist/the-8-bit-big-band/1397902589Amazon Music ► amzn.to/35QHtjp"The 8-Bit Big Band" is a 30-65 member Jazz/pops orchestra that formed to celebrate and realize some of the best themes from video game music from all consoles and eras arranged in a large ensemble Jazz/Pop/Rock setting!

(I Am the Very Model of a) Scientist Salarian *FULL SONG* ft. Will Roland - The 8-Bit Big Band The 8-Bit Big Band 2023-06-18 | • NOW AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING SERVICES! •Codex entry: Scientist Salarian, a parody of the Modern Major General song (humans Gilbert and Sullivan, 1879) was written in 2171 by famed Salarian lyricist and part time structural biologist Jokus Kirosa. The song was later featured as part of the 2183 inaugural gala celebrating humanity’s contributions to the galactic artistic community, where it was performed for the council alongside other classics like Francis Kitt’s All-Elcor Hamlet and Leonin Trebin’s musical comedy rendition of “Jaynestown”.So thrilled to finally bring the full version of this Mass Effect legendary dialogue easter egg to life! When I first played Mass Effect 2 and discovered the dialogue option of Mordin Solus talking about his time singing this Gilbert and Sullivan "Pirates of Penzance" classic I immediately took to the internet to see if there was a full version of the lyrics in existence. After a little googling I discovered an entry on fanfiction.com by the incredible writer by the user name AssaultSloth of a fantastic expansion of a full set of lyrics and KNEW I had to give musical life to his genius writing! So for all you fans who intersect the Mass Effect universe and the operettas of the great Gilbert and Sullivan like myself, this one is for you!! Hope you enjoy!

Chrono Trigger Main Theme - Big Band Jazz Fusion version ft. Steven Feifke (The 8-Bit Big Band) The 8-Bit Big Band 2021-12-07 | The incredible pianist and composer Steven Feifke is featured on piano in this Jaco Pastorious/Chick Corea inspired Jazz fusion arrangement of the Main Theme from Chrono Trigger (1995)! The original song has some pretty great parralell minor 9 chords that made me draw the connection between this and Jaco Pastorius’s famous composition "Kuru/Speak Like a Child" so I wanted to honor his great bass playing, and let Steven play the role of Herbie Hancock, with a short tribute to the late great Chick Corea's "Spain" in the middle with a similar sounding unison line.

I was heavily inspired by Leo's incredibly unique approach to his horn, and wanted to draw some vocabulary from Arabic classical legendary artists such as Umm Kulthum while letting him rock out with his unique sound on the melody (while throwing in some love for Camille Saint-Saens towards the end in the process!)
