▶This is a list of the software that I used to create Toto Africa as an Epic Orchestra cover:
East West Symphonic orchestra, Hollywood Strings, Woodwinds and Brass, Pianos and Violins, Gypsy, all inside the D.A.W Logic Pro X.
The video was edited using Premier Pro,
I use an iMac as my computer, processor is 4GHZ intel core i7, 24GB 1600Hz DDR3 Ram, 500GB SSD, Graphics AMD Radeon R9 4GB.

▶Lyrics:
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (ah, gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)

Oh this is so good heard it on a holiday advert a bit back

[@Keithbarber]

I dont think toto ever realised how popular an anthem this would become when they recorded it in the 1980s This sounds brilliant, a fantastic cover

[@ahsenkhan5386]

ANthem Joesphe Williams John Williams Star Wars, Imperial March, Superman, V, Indiana Jones

[@arcuarius86]

This needs to pump the views, man it sounds amazing.

[@EpicOrchestra]

Thanks 😁

[@santavendracino8421]

If Africa unites into a single state this will be its national anthem

[@tristanfour6233]

It should be the anthem of the African union.

[@noahhughes2501]

East African Federation

[@ultimategmoneyremaber1821]

Hell yes and Volvo BMW and the suby estate with the main 3 top gear guys well get satures

Epic Orchestra i cried... so beautiful.. a masterpiece. god bless you. i have listened to many instrumental or orchestra songs of africa or others and nothing compared to this. if you had a spotify or itunes version of this i would listen to it over, and over, over, and over again until i died. i’m sorry but you need way more subs by times 1000000. i think Dancing Queen by ABBA would be a great song. thank you for your effort.

[@lisaschroeder6315]

I stumbled across your channel and have done nothing else but listen to your songs for the last 3 hours. You have done such beautiful work! Never stop making them!

[@shockwave4742]

Wow, I already thought the song felt good to listen to, and then someone went and kicked it up a notch. This is what epic music sounds like, all right.

[@ranit9cupsoftea842]

[@u1zha]

Oh this is 4 years old? What was my algorithm doing back then?? (I think it was revealing to me bardcore/tavernwave around that time, but should also have given me this...) Please more organ! And snare fills do totally belong in an epic orchestra 🙏

Is this a real orchestra!? It sounds so beautiful😭

[@gavinfaulkner4960]

Jeremiah Plays All yep most beautiful thing to hear i think

[@alexpowell4042]

@@gavinfaulkner4960 No. If it was a full video, it would show the whole orchestra. And if you watch the violinist, he isn't playing what the music is playing. They likely did this on Garageband or a similar program and put it to videos of people playing music. Still a cool composure.

[@gryotharian]

AlexPowell404 it says the software he used in the description

[@benedicvelasco]

It's a computer.

Would love to view the orchestra playing. Part of the joys of a symphonic orchestra is watching conductor and the musicians.

[@mediocreman2]

This is 100% synthesized. Nobody is playing actual instruments.

SUPER!!!!

[@benniemoe1621]

This is awesome! Have you done "I Won't Hold You Back"? I think it would sound great arranged Moonlight Sonata. Subtle then progressively becomes intense. I can already imagine the piano at the start and the strings and brass at the choruses.

[@kennydoan2790]

This orchestra cover of this song sounds like a real orchestra even it was made from a software

[@EpicOrchestra]

I actually done Blank Space all the way back in 2014, though honestly I don't think it's as good as my newer stuff, but still you might like to have a listen, lemme know as I could always redo the song so it sounds more dramatic and expressive if you're not a fan of the 2014 version ☺️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWmWkGNvhtuLkKc
