A few B-K pieces on Piano

[Sekna]

I got bored, so I recorded myself playing a couple of B-K pieces on piano. For now I have Gobi's Valley (www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssgsPYR14qk) and Mayahem Temple (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmgkZ6h-fSc), but I'll be covering a heck of a lot more B-K stuff. I also did Super Mario Bros. (www.youtube.com/watch?v=TX68b6bB-oY) if you want to check that out.

I made them all 100% on iMovie on my Mac, Globes and everything. It's so damned easy. Also, even though the descriptions say, I got the sheet music is from NinSheetMusic.

I just wanted to show the RWP community some of my playing. Tell me your thoughts and especially rate them!! :D

Although you have a bad camera, you are very talented with the piano. Keep it up!

[Sekna]

Thanks man! I do have a better camera, but I can't be bothered getting it out, so I'm using my phone for now stacked on a pile of books!!
I've been learning for 3 years but I never started getting good until I learnt the melody for Mario Bros. and I was ecstatic, so I took off from there. :D:D

You have the right idea, a bit like me and the ol' ukelele. :) But maybe you ought to try your own arrangements when you think you're good enough.

[Sekna]

What do you mean my own arrangements? If you mean my own musical pieces I have already made quite a few, 7 in fact. Theme music for the game mentioned in my sig. Once I have made another or two I'll post them all. :D

Btw Click Click wood and Mad Monster Mansion shall be up soon. Mad Monster Mansion probably tomorrow, it's getting too dark.

Holy cow, Sek; very nice! Just listened to Gobi's Valley, and you've got it spot-on! I have no idea how you were able to hit everything so precisely!! Keep up the good work, man! ^_^

[Sekna]

Thanks Dee! I practice hard for my viewers. *bows*
Good to see you back aswell. :D

For everyone who ends up viewing this thread I just finished another composition and once I export it I'm going to show RWP the 7 I have made.
Ironically, this is my 777th post. =O

Unless that's your sheet music you wrote out, I mean you should try arranging the pieces yourself. As in, hearing it on the game and working out the notes on the piano, then making a fitting bass, as opposed to reading somebody else's music. ;)

Man, I wish I could play by ear, although I do a lot of the basses myself, because they are easy to work out once you know the key, which is easy to work out aswell. Sometimes I try to play by ear, I am not very good but I try. But playing piano is not what I focus on... I like composing a lot more. :D
You will see soon in a new thread I'm posting later.

Yeah..you're either good at reading music, or good at playing by ear, or somewhere in between. I guess some people are even outside of both categories
