So happy to finally be doing this tune! I’ve played Rude Buster a few times at live shows since DELTARUNE came out, and I always prefaced the performance by saying that “this is the one tune in my set list that I haven’t uploaded a video of”, and now I can’t say that anymore! I loved a lot of the music from DELTARUNE, but was sort of hesitant on making full covers of it, since the full DELTARUNE game hasn’t been released yet… but I saw that enough of you wanted to hear this song that I got over myself and did this one, haha. I don’t think I need to express how much I like this song, considering I’ve enjoyed Toby Fox’s compositions enough to make a full album of UNDERTALE music!
For this particular arrangement, I was super excited to be able to use my upright bass in a featured role for some points in the tune! In the past couple of years, I’ve grown to be a fan of Japanese jazz fusion piano trios like H ZETTRIO or Fox Capture Plan that play stuff that sounds game music mixed with EDM, but orchestrated for a piano trio. In these ensembles, the upright bass always stands out to me, since it has such a unique round sound that’s accented by really percussive attacks on notes! That was a sound I was really going for here in the bass part, especially when the bass plays solo! I ended up rerecording the bass part a couple of times using different mics and positions to get the sound just right. In the end, I settled on using my new AT4040 condenser mic (looks like my good ol Bluebird bit the dust - it isn’t working anymore, so I had to buy a replacement!) to capture finger noise, and my AEA N8 right on the bridge to get the round low end, and ended up blending those mics together. Throughout the arrangement, there are a few times when I do this EDM riser kind of thing on the bass (which is possible because the bass is a fretless instrument!), which is a technique, I totally stole from GoGo Penguin’s tune “Garden Dog Barbecue”, which was also a major inspiration for this arrangement.
I also got a new set of congas recently! Playing with the Sinnoh Fusion Ensemble helped me realize how big of a role auxiliary percussion plays in making a sick groove, so I wanted to invest in some congas that I can use on future recordings to add an extra layer to the rhythm section! My conga technique is… not the best, but I’m working on it! I think the congas are very versatile and can utilized in a lot of different styles of music! 🙂
This arrangement has a fair few time changes in it, I just wanted to throw em in for fun! There’s also a section after the percussion trading solos that references “Field of Hopes and Dreams”, which is the central melodic motif in DELTARUNE… and I love the song so much (it’s my Animal Crossing town tune!) so I figured I’d throw it in, haha.
Hope you all enjoy!
