Gran Turismo 2 - All City Themes - Bass Cover

[@DropD]

Which city theme do you prefer ? North City for me ;)

[@laurabasuki2841]

south city

[@MrNovecento1987]

East City

[@williamlamas5950]

Easy city !!!

[@lukasnikolic2923]

West City - Gives off a good vibe imo

[@DrYosh2]

Hard to pick. A bunch of solid tracks. But I think south city is my favorite of the bunch. Both your covers and the originals. But that slapping in your west city made it a hard choice.

[@joshuajohnson6534]

When I'm buying car parts I throw on East City just to please my inner child

[@DropD]

Ahah 👍

[@romo2674]

This is probably the most important video on the entire internet.

[@DropD]

Ahah thank you so much !!

[@wburge1992]

So agreed, long live Ohira’s jams. All slept on.

[@giobarbarinimusic]

Agreed

[@iamrovai]

CORRECT

[@cvc9220]

Agreed, I'll call the President

[@rolanalberto3064]

I've always loved how each theme compliments the vibe of the Carmakers in each city: South City - Upbeat American Soul East City - 90s Shibuya-kei/citypop sound West City - French Yeye Organs and funk bass sound North City - British 60s beat music strut

[@DropD]

Exactly !

[@TamiyaGuy123]

Where the _hell_ has this been all my life. This is just wondrous, and the rearranged MIDI tracks are a fantastic touch as well, respecting the originals while adding that much more crispness to them.

[@DropD]

Thank you so much !! 🙏

[@ViniciusNipote]

As a fellow bass player and former Gran Turismo player, big congrats my dude. It really sounds like a remix/remaster and If you haven't shown this to Isamu Ohira yet, please consider doing so, I'm sure he will love your version, because beyond the bass cover, you rearranged all the stuff, which is amazing. Just like to you, Gran Turismo was (and still is) a huge school in Jazz/Fusion for me.

[@DropD]

Big THANK YOU !! It's a great pleasure to read your comment.

[@lewdards1127]

this is epic. never realised as a young kid how groovy these bass lines were, i just loved driving the WRX around ssr7.

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot !!

[@WKCamperer]

Dropped a like for that East City banger

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot !

[@edamazzio]

I just want to tell you that I listen to this almost every day. I just can't get enough of it

[@DropD]

It's a big pleasure to read your comment !! Thanks a lot 🙏

[@RealNameNeverUsed]

I can already imagine specific vehicles in each cities that I spent hours considering to buy or not.🤣

[@DropD]

Ah ah, right !

[@dionysismaniatakosmusic]

I never played Grand Turismo 2, but Grand Turismo 4 has similar music and I really like it! My favourite one is the "East City" theme! Good job once again!

[@DropD]

Thank you Dionysis to see my job again !! I played Gran Turismo 4 and yes, it's the same music vibe, very jazzy / lounge music. GT2 was very inspiring to my musical style.

[@derosiflo6524]

Fun fact: Gran Turismo 4 has some gran turismo 2 menu ost remixed

[@hugoboyce9648]

If car dealerships in real life played this in a loop then maybe I'd buy a car...

[@DropD]

Ahah thanks ! 😆

[@mohammad.m99]

Nice old days! i miss them a lot.

[@DropD]

Yes... Thanks !

Thank you so much, I'm really honored !

[@Soft_as_chalk]

Excellent groove.

[@lovelakland]

Listeeeeeen!!!!! I've been waiting for this for years. At last a bass cover of some of the greatest compositions of music on a game.

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot !!

[@diegobascunanvega4435]

East city, west city and north city are my favorites

[@DropD]

Thanks !!

[@RetroPlus]

Amazing playing, and great midi recreation too. Fantastic work 🙏🙏

[@DropD]

BIG Thank you !! 🔥🎸

[@ranzio477]

oh man me 2, gt2 ost has been so important in my life, by far one of if not the best soundtrack in the entire game industry. games are selled like products, but damn they have a lot of beautiful art in them, big hugs from Arica - Chile :^)

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot ! I'm agree with you. Probably my best video game soundtrack in my life too. Thanks again for your great comment and "plein d'amour" from France :)

[@5tripedTailz]

Beautiful bass work! my favorite track of the 4 is West City.

[@DropD]

Thank you so much !!

[@SafirLamkhantar]

Awesome playing to these very groovy tunes 👍🏻

[@DropD]

Thank you so much !

[@zackwhiteal]

Incredibly well done, sir. Nostalgic precision.

[@DropD]

Thank you so much !!

[@b.d.cooper8671]

I liked the South City theme, although West City was a good jam as well. Well done on covering them and I liked the added backing of the MIDI tracks as well

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot !

[@-kilian-]

Great skills bro, Im sure everyone was waiting for North City's bass section and you nailed it

[@DropD]

Thank you so much ! 🙏🎸

I always want to cover all of this tracks but had no time yet. Glad to find someone did it.. great job man..

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot !! 🙏

[@jamieoconnor1916]

Amazing work, Drop D Magnifique 👏 😊Thanks for the memories. I played this game to death back in the day with my friend. Great times were had playing this masterpiece 👌 😊

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot for your comment ! So much nostalgia with this game... Merci beaucoup 🙏

[@jamieoconnor1916]

@DropD Hello from Ireland Merci beaucoup, my friend never stop rocking 🙌 😀 💪

[@lon242]

I must say your bass playing is masterful, but I also really like how you did the backing tracks as well. 3:30 the organ, keyboard and strings building up (is that called a crescendo?) is amazing in the original and was always my fav part of the theme, but this takes it all to the next level. That drum fill was amazing. Exquisite work, man.

[@DropD]

Thank you so much for your comment !! You made my day 🙌

[@DoctorN8]

I love how you incorporated the "Home" theme at the end of North City!

[@DropD]

Thanks a lot !!

[@EmoDKTsuchiya]

Liked, commented, subscribed, and sacrificed a baby Escudo in your honor

[@DropD]

Ahahah, Thanks a lot !!

Incredible! I watch this video every day, KZbin itself added to my mix! Nice play bro

イーストシティの日本人です。 あなたのカバーには目を見張るものがあります。 当時は名車の中古車も安かったのですが、今はとても高額になってしまっていますね。 また90系コロナマーク2に乗りたい。

[@DropD]

Big Thanks again !

[@TimeTraveIer_0]

It's also nice to notice these are real maps! South City (US) - New York City (Manhattan) East City (Japan) - Tokyo (Minato) North City (UK/Germany) - London (Westminster) West City (France/Italy) - Rome (Monti and Castro Pretorio) Beware because West City's map is not oriented North, it's facing South East basically (it drove me nuts, I thought I was wrong but couldn't figure why the Colosseum wasn't surrounded by the same things haha

[@xb2856]

North city is just so crazy smooth

Yes ! Pure class ;) Thanks !

[@ferrisarrafisilitonga5097]

Dude this is awesome. One thing though, I think the actual bass sound is too drowned by the backing midi track. I can almost barely hear it in the East City theme.

[@DropD]

Thank you ! The mix is good with earphones ;)

[@JamesDyer90]

This is very enjoyable and has given me the drive to pick my bass up again. Nice work!!
