I've wanted to do a clarinet cover of this one for quite a while now, but never really got around to transcribing it until recently. Partially because the show was a huge mess had a completely garbage ending which killed all my motivation, and also due to the fact that a high-quality instrumental track doesn't exist (no, I don't count the dubstep version -.-). But seriously, the song itself is pretty damn cool. Dada da dada dada da dada.

The recording, mixing and video editing process was a nightmare. Hence why I'm uploading and racking my brain for a description at 1:30 in the morning.

Regarding the transcription, easily one of the most difficult ones I've ever done. From the opening lick to the arpeggio hell at the end, there's tricky parts everywhere. Even threw an E7 in there to stretch the range to four full octaves huehuehue. Honestly, feel free to take things down an octave or omit the runs...but for those looking to test their chops, be prepared to annoy your family and neighbours to no end :)

I also encourage you to play around with altissimo notes to find a scream that works for you. Be creative! It's not hard to cause catastrophic amounts of aural destruction with the weapon known as the clarinet.

Anyways, hope you enjoyed, and see you next time!
