Dusty Dune Galaxy [Metal Cover] - Super Mario Galaxy

This cover had been completely tracked and arranged since the beginning of last year. When I finally decided to go back and finally record tracks, I was surprised how simple it was. All minor chords, no crazy improvised harmonies, reused drum parts. And honestly, I think all those things are what really made the cover great. Despite it being 4 minutes long, you don't feel it at all. And I think it is because of how simple and repetitive it is. All alterations throughout the song are so subtle you might not even notice them. Especially with the lead guitar, just replaying the same melodies in slightly different ways. The only real added parts from me are 2 transitional bars to make the song string together differently. The solo was fun to do. I think maybe because I recorded it on stream it took way less time than usual. Though I did end up going back and changing a part of it since I didn't like how it sounded. I also learned that because my flute has a dent in it, it is out of tune by exactly 50 cents. It's actually hilarious if you look at the stream, it's just straight up 50 cents higher. Put flange on the bass and harmonies to keep some of the synth sound from the original. I'm really shocked that after I was done recording and mixing tracks, that I didn't want to add any synths at all. It just sounded perfect. I did make the mix so that the main focus is the lead. But I think making the rythems take a back seat also helped make the song more enjoyable. I also can't believe what vgm's don't have covers of. I could only find one short guitar cover of this. I thought this is one of the more popular songs, but maybe I'm weird.
