Above the Clouds [8-Bit; VRC6] - Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

From the number of Kirby 64 covers you've done, I'd guess it's a big nostalgia game for you, like one of those games you keep coming back to year after year. I think we all have some games like that.

[@kaicaelum9181]

Understandably. Kirby 64 is incredible.

[@ryanvenjoyer]

The game is nice, but the soundtrack is phenomenal

[@branflakes325]

yeah pretty much this :]

[@realpiranhaplant]

Crystal Shard's Butter Building has always been my favorite in the entire series and it's jazziness translates so well to chiptune... just absolutely amazing :D

[@Po_theDragonWarrior]

this song always gets me in a good vibe :)

[@Insert.Oregano]

Really cute animation, real bop of a cover too

[@EvanStarDream]

Man i love this game's OST, and hearing it in chiptune sounds awesome.

[@glubby2262]

Im floating on clouds with this one.

[@Osmose1000]

stop it bran I'm trying to be depressed right now but you're making it real difficult

[@Lever200]

i have always loved this song from when i was a kid and got the game to now and this goes SO WELL in 8 bit it has the most perfect tone and perfect introments for 8 bit and it takes me on a nostalgia trip

[@mr.cobbweb1624]

Quite a cute cover for a cute song in a cute game staring a cute pink puffball. Thank you for the cuteness overload *_God of all Cereal Boxes_* .

[@SSB_Seal]

One of my favorite songs in the game, and also one of the best renditions of Butter Building! I really enjoyed this arrangement!

[@squarewavewitch]

THIS IS LOVELYYYYY i really love the little flourishes you did in the melody starting at 1:10 :D

[@freedomzero6430]

Easily my most fondly remembered song from 64 besides rock star, ripple star, and quiet forest, not to mention a damn good song at that Excellent work.👌

[@NicolARark]

Those clouds... ngl it reminds me of Cave Story

[@gwynhwyfar1321]

I love this so much!! Crystal Shards has my favourite rendition of Butter Building and you just managed to make this song even lovlier! It's so bouncy and whimsical~

[@VashdaCrash]

Al those little sprites coming down and left, so cute

[@Majo_Ellen]

The first time I heard this song was in Kirby's Avalanche; I was 4 years old. Hearing it in K64 was a nice callback~ And..! Well, it always has a special place for me! I expected no less than kirspy kirby pixel goodness from Branflaakesss~! The rollin' keys and up beat mixing make it sound pretty happy, despite the solemn tone! I love your work as alwaayysss, keep it up! Also; Kirby in 64 can't fly forever... This pixel kirby is using gameshark.

[@ecronaclon47]

ayyy! It's my big accomplishment music! I try to listen to this song whenever I pass a stressful test or final. Needless to say, it's very rewarding!

[@pangetpampam8272]

Man I’m so glad I subscribed to you I’ve been craving for good chiptune artist out there and you’re the only one who’s consistent enough

[@minemon106]

epic

[@davymcdave]

Somehow missed this upload, but Bran my dude ; that's the best Butter Building I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

[@AdonisNesser]

Absolutely incredible. Childhood favorite game here that I always come back to because of the music and environments. Not disappointed by Kirby going 3D and paying homage to Crystal Shards in the latest entry! Hope you can mix some music from Forgotten Land soon

[@connor8292]

This is one of my favourite songs from the game, thank you so much for blessing us with this!

[@redshell9205]

I like the more relaxed songs you’re making recently.

[@swordsmancs]

Those flourishes at 1:10 absolutely seal the deal the deal on this one mate 12/10

[@Victini7472]

IT'S SO GROOVY!!!!!

Groovy!

[@sokiimoisanegg9520]

so nice to listen to! your covers always make me happy and the visuals are the cherry on top.

[@TheLongboardingismyl]

I dont know how but with each song you get better and better. Which is crazy considering that the original songs are all bangers, yet you make em bop even more.

[@VashdaCrash]

Yay! I just got the latest kirby game, can't wait to play it with my sister 🎉

[@jsnizzleGaC]

Straight banger

[@JP_Soup]

Butter Building my favorite. 🙂

Love the little enemy cameos you added! Oh, the song too, I guess. (The cover is BEAUTIFUL, btw.)

This song always reminds my childhood. Nice arrange!!

[@leesalee1540]

Yoo, less than one second in and you've already earned my like. Whole thing hits hard!

[@soupahmario5869]

This has always by far been my favorite rendition of Butter Building, and potentially my favorite song in all of Kirby 64. It put such a huge smile on my face when I heard it back in Planet Robobot! ...even if it only played for a room or two. It's such a...sassy, and confident rendition of the theme, and also EXTREMELY happy. Your rendition of it is fantastic! Literally without fail every song you cover is great. I love it every time you add the...vibrato, is it? (I'm no music expert sajkgfsalgdflsjal) Shoutouts to the Epic Yarn rendition of Butter Building as well. Probably my next favorite cover of the original song!

[@francesca1593]

this is amazing! everything fits so well! great work, branflakes! :))

[@sei_un_who]

I don't know who is the best between VinylCheese and this guy... I don't mind when I enjoy both of their arrangements

[@Danominator]

Finally the best version of Butter Building gets some love!

[@PlatinumHntr]

nice

[@AuntBibby]

this is so good 😢

[@oskehcat]

This is SO good!

[@TwoHeadedMeerkat]

I don't know if you take requests, so consider this a recommendation. I think it would be really nice if you covered a Live A Live song, in anticipation of its July remake coming up. Its soundtrack was composed by Yoko Shimomura, so I assure that its of top quality. Some nice songs that come to mind are: Megalomania (obviously) Wings That Don't Reach Journey to the Mountain of the Demon King Illusion + Pure Odio Kiss of Jealousy Painful Death at the Hands of a Psycho Knock You Down! Difficult Fight Armageddon And of course quite a few others.

[@Kami_Chaos]

Even if it's just a remix of another Kirby song, it's still one of my favorites.

[@ElTaitronAnim]

Excellent work!

[@falloutboy1379]

This makes me wanna get up and bust some slick moves. Slick as maybe...butter?

Butter Building but *woke.* I love it.

You should mountain stream next! Also one of the best tracks of K64

nice!

big fan desu

[@urassari]

everyone: wow, this is so cool! me: kirby is very tired now since she cant hold her breath for that long :(

I know this is two years old, and you probably found out by now, but this reminds me of when I used to think Kirby was a girl lol

[@LeafyGreenDA]

I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone remix Infiltrate the Junk Factory yet.

It's just me, or a lot of people is getting "nostalgic" about Kirby 64 recently?

Forgotten Land has a few references to Kirby 64

[@reinboucorporation]

@@jess648 Maybe that's the reason.
