Double Dragon II - Mission 9 (piano)

[@GabbPiano]

There is a small audio/video lag issue from 00:32 to 00:41, particularly noticeable at 00:40. I realized it too late. But this will be corrected on the final medley!

[@neat3468]

Don't worry, it's barely noticeable. Well I watched the whole video twice and didn't notice until I read this lol

[@BortLicensePlate]

It sounds fine to me.

[@Sm1thWessonAndMe]

I second both of these comments. Sounds awesome to me! 👍

[@FilippoBeckPeccoz]

To keep telling my story about how this game was an epic undertaking for me and my brother back then: as this music kicked in for the first time, we were both pumped, scared and most of all determined to get it DONE! Great memories- and thank you for giving new life to this music ok the piano, Gabb! ❤️

[@Sm1thWessonAndMe]

Such a great rendition! And so fun, as always, to hear and see it played on the piano by none other than Gabb! Bravo! 😎👍

[@HumanSlinky]

I was waiting for this one! My favorite song from Double Dragon II and you played it wonderfully. Thanks as always for the sheet music. It looks like it hits that sweet spot of being approachable but still fun/satisfying to play. Gonna get started on learning it right away!

[@GabbPiano]

Thanks! I have just added a version of the simplified sheet music that is a little more affordable, transposed to D minor.

🎉❤🎉 Respect A Toi maestro les Détails 🔥🔥

[@UnNimois]

Impressionnant le travail sur les pédales au début. Et pour la deuxième phase, super arrangement et interprétation, la classe.

[@alejandrosilva1138]

Perfect ending played flawlessly. I loved every second of it!

[@michaellarrybest8193]

That was epic! Love it!

[@JonathanCrane82]

Can't wait to see what games are next! Everything is always amazing!

[@GabbPiano]

That's so nice, thank you!

[@ClassicMalt]

Simply amazing! Keep up the great work!

[@Songwriter001]

Attaque impressionnante. Subtil travail rythmique.

[@poesiapoesie8880]

Bravissimo nell'adattamento e nell'esecuzione.

[@celioilustra]

@GabbPiano, espero ansioso a música final de Double Dragon 2, talvez a melhor de todos os jogos de nintendinho. Ah! e Obrigado por essa jóia rara!!!

[@sumitdas9428]

You are the only guy on KZbin how can play the bass line perfectly for these nes video games BGM .... earlier nes video games really had complex bass lines along with strong harmony and melody.

[@GabbPiano]

Thank you! I agree, the bass line in NES games is often very interesting.

[@sumitdas9428]

@@GabbPiano These japanese people were truly genius and also they Pioneered these type of music called the 8 bit music..now Gabb you are the next genius perfectly interpreting them on the piano.

[@sqliqbild]

Mais oui ! Excellent ! Raahhh magnifique. Allez zou, recupération de la partition, et on bosse. Grand merci pour le partage !

[@GabbPiano]

Trop bien ! Cet enthousiasme me fait bien plaisir. :)

[@pifpoufmirouf]

Un boss ultra punitif avec sa roulette infernale qui enlève 3 ou 4 carrés d'un coup 😵‍💫 Quel plaisir et quelle tristesse d'entendre ce dernier morceau... mais encore un grand bravo pour ton travail !! 😳👌🤘 Merci Gabb !!! 😉

[@GabbPiano]

Pourquoi dernier ? ^^

[@pifpoufmirouf]

@@GabbPiano haha j'ai bêtement pensé que le boss final annonçait le dernier morceau 🤪

[@WingzOfLove]

WHOA!!

[@neat3468]

Absolutely fantastic and flawless playing as usual. Great work! It is honestly a shame this tune is not in the arcade version, for either Willy, or for the Ghost Brothers. Makes you wonder if they were pushed for time, but then made that extra effort for the NES version.

[@GabbPiano]

It's true. But this theme was integrated in the ios version (close to the arcade) during the fight against Willy.

[@UnNimois]

​@@GabbPianoAlso in the GBA version I think.

[@GabbPiano]

@@UnNimois Oh yes, correct. I didn't know this version.

[@Team_1_Star]

This is amazing

[@Sm1thWessonAndMe]

The font in the video made me keep seeing 88 in the two Bs in Gabb, as in 1988, which is the year this game was released!

[@GabbPiano]

Indeed, a funny coincidence.

[@MusiqueauSoleil]

Remarquable !!!

[@callisoncaffrey]

You know, I always envied your skill, but I finally realized, you'll never have the kind of relieve and excitement I have when you've perfectly played a song. For you that's just a normal Monday. With that being said; this is just speculation, because I never played a song perfectly in my life. Still, I imagine it will be great.

[@GabbPiano]

Oh yes, with each performance that I consider successful, it is always an intense satisfaction that I feel.

[@callisoncaffrey]

@@GabbPiano Considering your skill you must be on a constant high then. But be honest, does it still have the same potency like when you started out?

[@lefalipali8520]

PLEASE do NES Double Dragon 3 or Mitsume Ga turoo next. YOU'RE THE GREATEST

[@GabbPiano]

What an appetite, it’s a pleasure to see!

[@wacojohnnydean1777]

One of my favorite songs on this game. Unfortunately, this piece looks too hard for me to play on my piano…What key is this in? 😮

[@GabbPiano]

The piece is in Eb minor. It's true that it's not the easiest tone to master, with a lot of black keys. I should have transposed the piece to D minor for the simplified version. I still invite you to try the current simplified version.

[@wacojohnnydean1777]

@@GabbPiano As always, thanks buddy! I wish I was on your level! You make it look so easy! Lol! I learn how to play songs by watching piano tutorials. Some are too difficult for me to pick up, some are not…I’ll give this a shot though!

[@GabbPiano]

Following your remark, I have just produced a version in D minor of the simplified score. Perhaps it will be more affordable to you than the one in Eb minor. I indicated the link in the description. :)

[@AbeKenney]

Anyone else think this is inspired by Iron Maiden’s “Wasted years”?

[@LightninSharples]

[@JP-uy9kq]

Hey Gabb... did you actually ever play any of the games you cover the songs to? My wife and I were saying there's no way you could have gotten so good at piano if you were splitting time between the NES and the Piano 😂... well?

[@UnNimois]

He did and worse, he was one of the stronger video game player I know due to this training.

[@GabbPiano]

@JP-uy9kq Yes I did, it's all about organization. ;)

[@GabbPiano]

@@UnNimois What an imagination ! ^^ I greatly appreciate this flattering portrait. :)

[@UnNimois]

@@GabbPiano I saw it with my own eyes 😅.

[@Aupheromones]

I gave the 70th like, and for that, I apologize.

[@GabbPiano]

👏🏻

[@AbeKenney]

I got to this first! Again I really love your covers! Here’s my guitar version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqTCpaprfKpjsNUsi=d6cElaCDPsk128HU
