This made me think of modern video game players that don't get memorable chip tunes, mostly orchestral ambiance, or music that is already too elaborate to have that earworm power.

I was there too, traveling up the branches of the world tree, despairing through the land of mist, emerging once again at Daybreak, claiming the fabled Dragonslayer, conquering the mutated darkness. My favorite game of all time. It has not been surpassed in all these years, and likely never will.

What?!?!? You actually did Faxanadu!!! YES!!! This game was my first OG rpg grind! Because if you're not racking up 20k gold at the beginning to buy The Magic Shield and Death magic, what are you even doing? Amazingly played, sir! Faxanadu has the best music! One of my favorite games of all time. Thanks for including the sheet music, and thanks for taking me way back to when I was playing this as a little kid with my cousins, brothers, and aunt!

Aww, thank you very much for this nice comment and for attesting to the quality of this amazing game. It's true that the acquisition of the Magic Shield and the Death spell at the beginning of the game is quite tempting to bother to save the necessary money. (In reality only the Magic Shield is really useful).

Enter screen, kill 2 spikey slugs and a jumping eye, exit screen. Next, re-enter screen, kill two spikey slugs and a jumping eye, exit screen. Three irl hours later, you have a lost a portion of your irl sanity, but you have the magic shield, Death magic, the J-key and a real chance you won't be slaughtered in the next fifteen minutes!

I remember playing this with my best friend at the time. We weren't zelda fans though we had the game. Same with Dragon Quest. We were just uninterested in these RPG type games. Then we popped this sucker in. What intrigued me? The story made me feel sorry for the people and the main character. That and we didn't know how to get into the first door- in fact we didn't even recognize that there was a door! Hahahah. But as we figured that out and we proceeded..it was just so epic, foreboding and we were just committed to helping this poor man save this thirsty, struggling village! The churches were such a sanctuary too. Those continue codes were a pain but we painstakingly noted and entered it!! Fearful that we messed up! I remember how hard we worked to get/afford winged boots! I guess I can say that it was this game that made be fall in love with RPGs and action rpgs. I even revisited it during the pandemic and was motivated to tackle Zelda 2 on NES. What memories! This music takes me back! Timeless classic!

Chapeau pour les trames de la tour et du donjon final.

I just want to say that I appreciate how you brought an immense sense of appreciation for this music without adding more notes, but by using the piano pedals to bring a more organic/breathing feeling to this otherwise mechanical music. An 'analog midi' mastery is here at work that transcends the digital realm. It brings incomprehensible joy to my mind.

So much about this is incredibly well done, from the arrangement, to the sequencing, to the actual piano performance, (so many crazy challenging parts you just sailed through!!), and even the little pixel art animations from the game that take you by the hand on the walk down memory lane. Faxanadu's music is close to my heart; the way it so elegantly combines baroque influences, unusual angular harmonies, and recurring rhythmical ideas, to create little masterpieces of intricate, condensed beauty. I love how true to the original score you stayed, whenever you could - every slight alteration or variation you made was always in humble service to the composition and the flow of the pieces, never imposing any foreign ideas, but simply rearranging and subtle editing, making the entire sequence work miraculously well. This piano version actually highlights how beautiful, creative, and deeply interesting Jun Chikuma's compositions truly were. You have done a great service to the remembrance of her work, and I am truly grateful to have found this video! ❤️

@@girderzombie I admit that Mantra also has a significant place in my heart. Yes, all Castlevanias seduce me with their musical atmosphere and I would like to adapt them to the piano. The Game Boy versions, which I really like, are part of this, even if it will be in a later phase.

When I just opened this video I recognized you immediately from the video 'battle of Olympos'. I enjoyed that very much. And now this one genius play. Thank you. You are the best!

This is wonderful, thank you for publishing this. I love this OST, I was just listening to the original a few days ago so this is most likely why this popped up in my recommendations.

Ah yes, the mantra, the bitter sweet lullaby that it was bed time, and you’d best write down your password with all lowercase and uppercase correctly or all that work was for not.. 🎉 cheers mate, and bravo. 👏🏻 thank you for relighting an old adventure never forgotten, but less known and travelled by the simple. 😈

@@GabbPiano This is one of the most challenging pieces ever written for a game. Ever. I applaud you. Liked and subscribed. You are all over my feeds now. Unfortunately, only a small percentage of the population recognizes your gift. I honestly didn't think it could be done, and here you are tickling the ivories like it was grade 1 piano all over again. I really appreciate your hard work. I can say a lot more, but I digress. Please know and understand that your work is LOVED and APPRECIATED!
