Solstice - Title Theme (Keyboard Arrangement)

[@Kevin-jb2pv]

Legend says the game box art was just a traced photo of Tim Follin writing the OST.

[@JustinThornburgh]

Haha yes

[@alecthedragonwhowalksontwo4376]

i've heard that legend, i think it is no legend, but the truth

[@EnergySurge09]

Tim Follin would be proud

[@FukiMakai]

If Tim Follin's songs was actually recorded prog rock pieces

[@SethChristenfeld]

Normal human: three keyboards, two accordions, electric bass. Tim Follin: NES sound chip.

[@1mariomaniac]

With just *_five_* sound channels, one of which is white noise and one is for samples. Frickin magician

[@GamingGardevoir]

@@1mariomaniacdid he even use the sample channel? Last I checked ALL of the percussion was accomplished by going ham on WHITE NOISE alone!!!

[@BaggyCatEntertainment]

I only just found this - 2 years too late! Yes I am proud! This is amazing!!

[@christianslaughter8724]

It's the guy from the box art! Hi Mr. Follin

[@supmattboy]

Typed "Tim Follin" in the search bar. Found this. Was not disappointed.

[@GreggGrindle]

Tom Follin was a genius.

[@Oceloto999]

Genuinely my favorite cover of this song

[@noblebelmont9997]

This is very much giving Emerson, lake, and Palmer vibes. 😅 love it!

[@GhostlightMusic-fv8mr]

I'm getting aheavy Jeff Wayne vibe.

[@bobbob-dg1kt]

I'm getting hefty Genesis vibes. Also reminds me of PFM too. Great tune, amazing to hear it with real instruments. You managed to predict I would search for Tim Follin music with real instruments 2 years ago, such foresight, heh.

[@thespleenenator]

This is sick, how the hell does it only have 900 views???

[@onpatrolforthejuice]

Sick cover

[@FromDesertTown]

Well, that was a treat! The rock organ was a great choice, and the bass guitar really brought the arrangement to life. I'm thoroughly impressed.

[@jamesmendonca2900]

Great job. Very bombastic. The piano work seriously shines in this track.

[@danielh.8473]

what the fuck is happening, I love it

[@JoeCKenny-xz2br]

I'm a Motoi Sakuraba super fan, but after listening to your cover, and then hearing the original version of this theme for the first time, I need to check out more of Tim Follin.

[@JustinThornburgh]

Same! I need to check out more of his work. I just happened to come across this one and thought it was really cool.

[@RKStrikerJK5]

God, this is so great! The Algorithm has legit blessed me this time. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Mahaveez]

HOLY CRAP. This is some serious undiscovered talent.

[@WurtzelTrumpetMaster]

Holy prog batman! What an adventure of an arrangement! Absolutely awesome performances by both of you! Excellent job!

[@TripleBMusic]

I don't know the original song, but this is amazing! It reminds me so much of a weird mix between ELP, Snarky Puppy, and An An Endless Sporadic.

[@JustinThornburgh]

Cool! I’m a big fan of ELP and Snarky Puppy. I’ll have to check out An Endless Sporadic.

[@txikitofandango]

and "Starship Trooper" and "Awaken" by Yes

[@chroniquephilousophique9983]

And a little yezda urfa too

[@soundsandstuff]

Awesome performance by you guys! I like how you added the accordion for a refreshing new take, and that bass and keyboards playing (and the fun pitch shifter!) is just incredible! Well done!

[@The_Phoenix225]

this is so epic balls

[@SiolfortheJackal]

So proggy! You guys nailed it, what a jam.

[@nacho7742]

Very suitable in the 70s

[@gabriebarros4361]

This is too good. Awesome video, man.

[@bits_byte_]

upper lefthand corner lead sounds akin to Risk of Rain 2 lead. god its so good

[@JustinThornburgh]

True! Chris Christodoulou’s synth lead tone is awesome in those soundtracks

[@bits_byte_]

@JustinThornburgh I'm not big on like OSTs of video games or movies, but damn..... I will go out of my way to listen to that. Amazing cover BTW

[@sirp0p0]

This guy SLAPS

[@artman40]

Definitely feels like this is what it would have sounded if Tin Follin was in a band.

[@alwade24]

clicked this video hoping for a sick bass, didnt disappoint!

[@goatrip69]

This is very good sounding arragement 👍🙂

[@Darkser37]

Absolute love your remix. I love Mr Follins' works but sometimes he makes me really think that he composed just after listening one extra LP hh. Even felt like it could come from Going for the One album by Yes lol (not the first time he might make tribute to Mr Wakeman tho)

[@predeterminedmeat5024]

Sounds like Rick Wakeman, love it!

[@BeadsArtBrasil]

Amazing! Cheers from Brazil

[@LomaGnome]

Nice and tight, especially when the song really kicks into gear with the bass.

[@Tremendouz]

Absolutely amazing. I was actually contemplating this track myself but you did it so much better than I ever could.

[@tibonev]

awesome stuff, as expected from you, you always deliver great stuff. also, i'm TOTALLY NOT jealous of the matrixbrute, haha. Well, at least you can use a lot better than i'll ever be able to. :) great job on this.

[@JustinThornburgh]

Haha, thanks. It's a great instrument, I love the variety and quality of sounds it can make while also just being able to do a nice simple saw lead like I use here.

[@BrendanVavra]

This was a ton of fun - you have a great knack for those synth tones (and great accordion addition). =D

[@JustinThornburgh]

Thanks! The accordion is always fun to play

[@DeweyNewt]

A bait & switch with the accordions! Great collab. :D

[@SoulinSadness]

Your key shredding is still impressive! Nice performance and cool rhythms!

[@WarpWhistlesMusic]

oh my goodness this sure was an adventure and not at all how I thought this'd go! super rad job you two!!

[@SchneiderSouza]

Amazing, Justin! I did a cover of this song one year ago and was super cool to play those amazing line by Folin. But I didnt those amazing solos that you guys did. Awesome!

[@GauchoDinamita]

THIS IS SO FUCKING INCREDIBLE

[@jaymethysell5111]

As if this song wasn't complicated enough at 3 minutes, you had to stretch it out to 5 minutes. LOL Good work.

[@SamAutoYT]

Incredible arrangement, thanks for the hand cam. Really cool to see how everything comes together.

[@awildwildwes]

This fucking rocks!

[@EbenezerEibenhardt]

Damn, son!! 🌡🔥

[@psycosulu]

Man, I thought you were nuts for tackling this track but then it started playing and you guys did great

[@subversiveasset]

Love the mixups of the parts near the end

[@ajayvonnedevork]

So Emerson Lake and Palmer btw

[@bugslayerprime7674]

If Emerson and Wakeman worked together...

[@saia100]

Very nice brotha

[@jmabate]

always enjoy your work. bravo

[@JustinThornburgh]

Thanks!

[@ChewyBooger]

Amazing

[@LyzzyLyzard]

Please make the pictionary theme oh my god

[@travismiller758]

Solstice had hands down, the best soundtrack of any NES game ever created. if only Tim Follin had written music for Chrystalis... The first Gargoyle game came a really close second, but Chrystalis has it slightly beat for better boss music. Just my opinion.

[@Oceloto999]

the song is falling apart please help

[@Oceloto999]

the song put itself back together

[@Oceloto999]

aaaand its falling apart again

[@acidbath3226]

OH MY GOD!! \m/\m/

[@travismiller758]

now do Chrystalis.

[@tatsujincorp]
