I found out about this song after bingeing some of the nico's nextbots ost. There are a lot of really great songs in the ost, but I really liked "sherbet lobby" and "video game lobby" in particular. I wanted to remix one of them, so I settled on sherbet lobby since it had the cute Yume Nikki animation by gobou that I could use for the video and thumbnail.
I usually use MIDIs online to make my remixes, but there wasn't one available. So, for the first time, I decided to transcribe a song myself! I sorta did this before with the Mindwave video, but the midi I made was missing some parts and was fairly basic.
As an amateur transcriber, this song was perfect for me lol. A lot of stuff in this song repeats itself for the whole song like the bass line and the chord progression, and there's only a small handful of melodies you have to transcribe. The only parts that were kinda tough to transcribe were the percussion and those little chiptune bursts that play every two measures. I could not for the life of me figure out how to transcribe that part into notes. I felt like that part was made using some special plugin or arpeggiator, but it was probably made with some simple technique I was too pea-brained to figure out.
In terms of accuracy, the MIDI template I made was probably at least 80% accurate to the original, which I think is pretty good :P
(also, crust crease, if you're reading this, I finished playing "In Stars in Time"! my thoughts on the game overall are a bit mixed, but for the most part, I enjoyed the game. I don't want to get too much into it here since it's not related to the video, but just thought I'd let you know since you recommended the game to me :P)
