Why is this music so pleasant to our ears? It doesn't need to sound identical to the original music. Remember, it is your cover, and you can do it your way. Then after that, you can add the other notes. An important key: always find the bass and melody first. This process is challenging, but it works well. I would slow the video on youtube most of the time and repeat a section like 100 times until I get the right notes and harmony. This process would be slower than the first one. The second option would be to try to create the arrangement from a piano score without change it. For example, most of the music sounds the best on the guitar on E, G, D, and A major or in a, e, or b minor. Most of the time, I change the bass clef to treble clef. In this, I used Sibelius, but you can use other software. First, I look for score music, and I make some changes with a music program. I use many ways to create arrangements, and I'm going to explain them very briefly. It doesn't matter if I have to do it little by little, note by note. And it is the following "I'm going to create this cover even if it takes years." What I mean by this is that once I begin to create an arrangement, it doesn’t matter how long it takes. Years later, I decided to upload on YouTube, and that was the moment I got a mentality that I use even today. Then, I discovered Super Guitar Bros videos, and man, I was amazed (check out Sam Griffin covers!). I would watch the piano covers, and I would think the guitar was too limited to do it. I always wanted to do covers before, but it seemed too complicated. What is the process I use to create the covers? Music impacts our lives and daily undertakings in many incredible ways. Many memories of watching my brother playing the games. Yes, I love Zelda music, and I get the most nostalgia from this video game.
So I decided to upload to YouTube every week, and it all started with this video. But with time, I just fell in love with creating and sharing it with many people of the same music taste. Maybe, something to attract people to listen to my classical music (which never happened). Yes, nostalgia is the biggest reason why I make the arrangements. I have been doing video game guitar covers for years, and there is something that always comes to me while listening: nostalgia.
