Can't believe month 3 of 8-Bit Battleground is already here! If you're not familiar with it, every month, eight of us (usually) will make their own cover of the same video game song, and then everyone gets to vote on their two favourite entries, and the winner gets to choose the next song we cover! We also do a live stream to watch all the videos for the first time on the deadline date. This month there are only 6 entries however, as two people needed to drop unfortunately.

For this one, I decided to take a bit of a different approach, and not change the structure of the song at all, and not even repeat it once. I feel this worked out for the better in this case! I loved being able to ramp up the intensity and then ramp it down quickly, without even using any distorted rhythm guitars or drums for that matter.

Finally got the video for my 8-Bit Battleground entry done! The song premiered on the 8BBG stream three days ago, but I wasnt able to finish the video part on time until today.
For this song, I decided to actually build a new song from the ground up based on the in-game version that the bards sing. A lot of covers of this song base themselves on the ever-popular Malukah version, which is fair since the original is literally just a melody, but I decided to make mine stand out by being its own version. Special thanks to Sumask as well! He added some great lead guitar parts to this cover, as well as some surprise harsh vocals towards the end to embellish my vocal parts.

Its finally here!! I started this cover over two months ago, but a ton of hiccups happened with trying to record my friend Katelyns vocals, and so it kept getting delayed, but Im so happy that its finally done. Extra special thanks to Katelyn for providing vocals for this arrangement!
This song was the first song that I fell in love with from the entire game, and I wanted to cover it since I first played it last year, but wasnt really sure how. Eventually I thought that maybe it would sound cool with some operatic vocals singing harmonies and the main melody, so I asked my friend Kate (who is a classically trained vocalist) if she would want to help out, and Im glad I did, because it turned out even better than I imagined! Other than the vocals, I didnt mess with the songs arrangement as much as I normally do; I mostly just extended a couple sections here and there and went through the song twice. Since its such a perfect song, I didnt want to do too much to it, other than playing it on guitar/bass and making the last section really heavy and powerful sounding, in the vein of a prog metal ballad kind of sound.
For the future, I may be only to do two covers a month at most, depending on how I feel, as I am getting a job and it may eat away at my time a bit. But, I dont run on a schedule anyway so it just depends whether I have the time and energy to work on these covers. I can definitely say theres at least one more coming this month, and possibly another!
BTW, I did notice the weird video cut off at the end screen, unfortunately I didnt notice until after uploading, but its such a minor thing overall that I didnt bother fixing it and re-uploading it because I already had to re-export the video once.

For me, I decided to do something a little different and try slowing the song down significantly just to see how it would sound. I knew it would inevitably make the song a lot easier to play for the most part, but I thought it was worth it because I feel like I came up with something pretty unique, and not like anything Ive down before. It also enabled me to play even more keyboard lead parts, since Im nowhere near as good at that compared to guitar haha. I more or less kept the original structure of the song intact, but with an extra repeat of the final section that I altered into something a bit evil sounding lol. Hope you enjoy my wacky nonsense on this one.
