I like how some of BF's notes are slightly different and more advanced, as if he's flexing on Senpai even more

[@PlumbumJelly]

I love it when remixes and covers give BF's parts more flair. BF is generally portrayed as pretty overconfident and somewhat arrogant (Ex: challenging Whitty for fun and not caring when whitty freaks out), so it's super in-character for him to flex on his opponents like that.

[@CBaller]

I wonder if the advanced difficulty in the final game will have more of that. Not sure if the ordinary songs will do that if they're gonna try to balance for multiplayer.

[@RealityRogue]

Usually it doesn’t make sense when BF wins the rap battle by just copying the notes, so I love when remixes give a reason

[@slendercube6848]

@@PlumbumJelly My personal favorite moments in songs are when BF does something different and pops off with the vocals. Like that one part in Blammed. And although he was only copying what Daddy Dearest did to him, when he vocalizes to steal his turn in Dad Battle

[@OMORIDAILYNEWS]

I hate bf

[@DoctorDisasterDracula]

Probably the best cover of this song. Some of them are still good, but most covers can’t quite get the annoyed and pissed off tone from Senpai’s vocals right.

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

That's the power of FDS babyyyy (also I maintain that Branflakes makes the best covers overall, but that's my opinion)

[@jazzerjaw]

Or they miss one that one note from Senpai's starting vocals, that annoys me more honestly lol

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@jazzerjaw A music critic after my own heart... did you hear the tiny error Bran made in this one?

[@jazzerjaw]

@@Nat_the_Chicken I didn't, no

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@jazzerjaw Right around 0:10 (more precisely at 0:12) you can hear Senpai's part repeat the pattern that goes up to E-flat a second time, instead of going down to the B-flat below the tonic as it does after that. Boyfriend's part repeats this at 0:16, and then it happens again in the recapitulation at 1:16 and 1:20. Bran's melody is: Bb C Eb F Eb D C D Eb D C *D Eb* D C Bb C whereas the original is: Bb C Eb F Eb D C D Eb D C *Bb C* D C Bb C So yeah, completely inconsequential and I don't know why I wasted this long describing it. But that's what I do. (Edit because I didn't notice that I mentioned solfege and then didn't use it until a week later lol)

[@tdimensional6733]

Fun detail; All of the spots on the sprites that would be black are just transparent, in order to save on the number of colors in a single sprite's pallette.

[@L1M.L4M]

That makes characters like Bowser and Samus actually look good

[@IkaraPopsicle]

It' still 16 bit, you have to come up with an extremely convincing comment to make me belive this is 8 bit

[@ric4455.]

@@IkaraPopsicle imagine the sprite layering thing they did with mega man's sprite but more extreme

[@ChristopherMoom]

Roses is a top tier Friday Night Funkin' song, and this take on the song actually holds up really well, out of all the countless amounts of remixes of Roses out there, this cover might be one of my favorites, nicely done

[@dr.alphys8650]

roses is probably my favorite of the fnf bunch, tbh

[@10kspoons]

Hi christopher moon

[@a_KattyCorn]

Hey Chris! Been a while since I saw ya in the comment section! Nice to see ya.

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

It's not quite as accurate as his Guns cover (I'm not talking about the intentional changes, there was one melody line which I think he just misheard slightly), but overall Bran definitely makes the best 8-bit covers on KZbin. They're always so faithful to the originals and he manages to preserve the feel as well as he possibly can, while occasionally combining multiple versions or motifs or altering melodic or harmonic content slightly in ways that work. It often feels like the song has gained something, rather than just losing complexity of tone as most 8-bit covers do. It's fantastic.

[@DietermiGamzD125]

Is it annoying that every answer is just people saying "oh hi again"?

[@Pixelcraftian]

Even in 8-bit it sounds amazing.

[@glangidiszoty]

pooping

[@ChristopherMoom]

branflakes popped off with this cover

[@izukumidoriya1766]

Trust me, its because its branflakes' cover

[@justjoking5252]

Even in -8 bit- it sounds amazing.

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@ChristopherMoom You say that like branflakes doesn't pop off with every cover

once again, props to you for recreating the "3 2 1 date!" thingy. keep up the great work!

[@donquavioussquintillioncor2261]

I was not expecting this level of professionalism

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

That's the level of professionalism Bran brings to every song he covers, it's incredible

[@feefington]

Every single arrangement of yours slaps so hard while still being truthful to how the original sounds seriously dude your content's amazing. *also i just realized you made a videogame sounding arrangement of a videogame sounding song in a videogame*

[@slons4]

Message for BranFlakes: I love this stuff! Please keep doing what you’re doing!

[@brightman2933]

I was not prepared for this to slap so hard,holy shit.

[@ZeeJBC]

Senpai’s neck on the high notes:🦒

[@mysteriousparadoxproductio9339]

Honestly Senpai looks like he’s trying to steal Boyfriend from Girlfriend.

[@goldygoldfish9470]

Senpai is gay confirmed

[@vortex_all9055]

lmao

[@TWO_Muffins1695]

I always knew Senpai seemed a little gay

[@cloverlovania]

senpai more like, senbi

[@Bloob73]

What if he steals both

[@elilevenshus7789]

Dang, this is amazing, I think it has even more details and nuance (like the chord change at 0:49, arpeggiation, duty cycle changes, etc.) compared to the original. Great job.

[@SuperKirbylover]

i love this so much!!! probably even more than the original roses,, my only gripe tho is the senpai blip sounds too close to the one use in your guns remix, but otherwise i love this!!!

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

FDS do be hard tho

[@FonicAeroArte]

Cant stop listening to your covers of FNF, they are incredibly well done!

[@TheAdvertisement]

The way you still managed to add so much personality to each voice is great! And I love the "#, 2, 1, GO!"

[@bbseow8283]

No amount of sound editing can get to this level of contrast. Keep up the good work!

[@Magmarang]

Considering the original was normally "chiptune" this sounds great!

[@gibboustime]

The 8-bit really suits the fact that they're in a video game. Also, nice work branflakes! Added to my bangers playlist.

[@official_no9829]

Your senpai looks so awesome, I absolutely love it

[@pietrosmusi6348]

WE WANT BACK MEGAMAN AS THE CHALLENGER Also amazing work

[@Rek2en]

Maybe when we get another character with “man” at the end of their name lol

[@banatg]

the attention to detail is INSANE. for example, the animations that the characters play out are almost EXACTLY THE SAME as the actual chart

[@foxepunz4849]

Damn bruh how do you make such consistent bangers like holy shit this is good

[@MoyanoJerald]

This truly sounds like Famicom Disk System, i've been looking for this since yesterday

[@holydiver4988]

i like how you paid attention to detail and made it say ready set date instead of ready set go

[@moone3346]

I just started watching and this hits so different, its groovy!

[@delicatefluff3235]

Man, i dont care what people say Senpai's week is a bop

[@jamesetmanlangit5650]

This is my favorite Friday Night Funkin song and you just made it even better. Its so good I want a 1 hour loop of it.

[@awesomeclown]

The amount of effort that was put into this is astonishing!! I love this!!

[@captaine-niscookie3406]

lmao senpai's right note sprite looks like he's about to burst into tears

Im really enjoying these fnf mixes! Good job man!

[@comfycookie3403]

Roses is one of my favorite FNF songs and you did an awesome job with this arrangement

[@Clownin-round]

That's the biggest mood I've ever read

[@Spaghettitron]

this is an awesome remix of sorts! you can really feel the new touches and they add quite a bit to it once again, you do an impeccable job!

Making good use of that FDS.

[@funi-so8067]

This is very specific but i love your ornaments. It makes it sound very 8-bit ish to me (probs because of undertale). Anyways i love your style of arranging, it's really unique

[@starrssccollide]

Way better than all the other 8-bit Roses covers I've heard, and now I can't stop listening to it lol.

[@Benjitos2]

Weird, I just rediscovered your channel a few days ago and now there's a new video. Your one of the best 8-but cover channels, keep it up. Maybe you can do a fnaf living tombstones cover in the future, since it's 7th anniversary is coming up.

[@evo683]

This is still the best 8-Bit cover channel on KZbin.

[@Tarofel]

knocked another one out of the park, and this song's style already panders to me hard

[@Xenorvya]

The quality of this wow. They even follow the arrow pattern from fnf. (Singing sprites instead of just a lazy sprite of the idle animation with the song playing in the background like most videos.)

this should have been on the elegant night dancin mod even if it doesn't match the elegant aesthetics. the fact that this is an 8-bit remix should be 'old' enough and omgggg i just rly dig this cover wtf 😭 but then again week 6 is still a wip after all, so am lookin forward for what they rly have in storee
