Shady Cicada | How To: Make a Sad Video Game Theme in 5 Minutes (+ Full Song at the End) || Shady Cicada @Shadycicada | Uploaded September 2019 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
► Full song at - 1:35 [Song Name: Closure]
Sad Video Game Themes. The name honestly speaks for itself. I'm sure you've had at least one moment where a sad video game theme got to you. Sad themes have a way of sticking with you long after a game is done. It really is a unique feeling of it's own. Sometimes bittersweet. I don't really have much more to say than that. Sad/Emotional themes have always stuck with me. A lot of songs I write are inspired by those very songs (awhich some of you already know). While I take influence from many different areas (as an artist does), I don't really have any inspiration I recall drawing from when I made this song. I usually go off of my own scenarios when writing these originals. Anyways, here's another one I made! This is "How To: Make a Sad Video Game Theme in 5 Minutes". I hope you enjoy!

Breath of the Wild is my favorite game of all time and the Legend of Zelda is my favorite series ever (so you can only imagine how obsessed I am with that game). When the E3 2016 trailer for BOTW was shown, I covered it in maybe a day or two, solely because of how excited I was for it. Yesterday, I felt that energy again and I just had to put this little thing out for fun during my break. I hope you enjoy this metal cover of the trailer theme from Breath of the Wild 2 (obviously not the final name). Feel free to check out my streams on the ol twitch if you wanna hear me endlessly talk about lore theories. Have a good one!

This month has been insane. My apologies about the lack of videos. I really tried to get the full song up for today, but then I would have just been doing it for the youtube algorithm. The plus side? My musicians block is finally gone and Ive written what I consider my best song of this entire year. I havent been this happy about a song since the last final boss theme and Here I Come. I hope you all enjoy it next week!

![Were All Gonna Be Stars (Acoustic Version) [Anime/J-Rock Song] || Shady Cicada](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VX6_DYYNQps/hqdefault.jpg "Were All Gonna Be Stars (Acoustic Version) [Anime/J-Rock Song] || Shady Cicada
An acoustic version of one of the most popular original J-Rock Anime songs on this channel. Ive been meaning to make an acoustic version of Were All Gonna Be Stars ever since the How To: Make an Anime Intro Song in 5 Minutes video was uploaded, but I never got around to it until now. It was a very refreshing experience making a completely acoustic song and recording the video outdoors. To top it all off, actual Cicadas started making noise as I was playing. A good time all around. I hope you enjoy the final product! Here is Were All Gonna Be Stars (Acoustic Version)! #animemusic #chillmusic #acousticguitar
