![Smash Ultimate Lifelight (Menu Ver.) LIVE Jazz Cover // J-MUSIC Pocket Band [Acoustic #08]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/bRfDl25Atjk/mqdefault.jpg "Smash Ultimate Lifelight (Menu Ver.) LIVE Jazz Cover // J-MUSIC Pocket Band [Acoustic #08]
The J-MUSIC Pocket Band covers Lifelight (Menu) from Super Smash Bros: Ultimate, composed by Hideki Sakamoto, and arranged by Patrick Bartley.
Okay, we know that most of you are tired of hearing this song by now - but hear us out! When I first heard this song, I wasnt necessarily blown away by it, but once we figured that Januarys session should be Smash themed (to celebrate the December release), I immediately realized that we had to include this song. During the transcription and process, I came to really like this song, and then the next challenge was then reducing and arranging these massive orchestral parts for a 6-piece small group. This humble little version was then born. Here we feature the powerhouse known as Norman Edwards once again, as well as an appearance by Ben Sutin on violin. Thank you for listening, and we hope you enjoy! (Also, yes, we play Smash - ask us for friend codes). -Pat
