Streaming link - probably coming soon :P Here's my brand-new cover for The Last of Us games. Seeing as The Bonus Points covered the first game at the start of summer, and will be covering the second at the end of August, I figured to combine these book-ends for my cover. I'm still new at playing cello, but I figured I had to at least include it a little for what I've learned so far; I'd love to include more cello in future covers. I hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own Final Fantasy or the theme I'm using in this piece. I am just a fan of the games and the music and this is my way of celebrating this wonderful game series. This is a set of variations on the Final Fantasy theme for two violins and piano! My apologies for it being a MIDI track, but I still hope you enjoy it nonetheless. This was a blast to work on and become very addicted to over the past few days, and was a great way for me to start my summer... and my first proper "new" video on my new professional YouTube channel!

I had a lot of fun putting this arrangement and video together, and I hope it shows my love of Animal Crossing as well. Thank you for watching!

I am so thankful to have two great VGM friends to help out (and both people I talked about in a video at the start of the year!): Caitlin Ayala and V-Ron Media! They both have their own lovely channels and play music from various games, so please go check them out at the links below! Caitlin's channel - https://www.youtube.com/c/CaitlinAyala/featured V-Ron's channel - https://www.youtube.com/c/VRonMediaMusic I took the first half of this arrangement and kept it fairly straightforward to the original in the game, with the guitar playing a repeating motif and the harp taking the bass and melody. Then, in the second half, the ensemble expands to more auxiliary percussion and piano which reference the "6PM" track from Animal Crossing: Wild World on the Nintendo DS (and consequently, City Folk for the Wii). I have fond memories playing at this time in those games, and wanted to bring that out in this arrangement. To me, violins were perfect to replace the accordion from the original and gave it a more cinematic feel. Finally, the piece ends where it began, fading out into the sunset.

This is my submission for the 2022 Soundole Chill Out Competition. I hope you enjoy! Super Paper Mario is one of my favorite childhood Nintendo Wii games. It's the only Paper Mario I've played, and as a kid I loved its blend of RPG and turn-based combat I was familiar with from playing so many 2D Mario games in the past. As I grew older, I fell in love with its story, surrounding two of the main characters in a touching tale of love. PLOT SPOILERS BELOW: For this medley, I chose a few tracks that symbolize Count Bleck (Blumiere) and Tippi (Timpani) to tell the story. The opening section ("Today's Story") serves as an introduction into this world; it's the first thing you hear upon booting up the game, learning about the magic books and setting up Mario's next adventure. The second track, "Champion of Destruction", aims to introduce Count Bleck as a character, and his musical motif. This is the most fast-paced section of the medley, and the drumset and fast melody aims to offset the tranquil music surrounding it. This motif is utilized in "Memory" and "Promise", where violin pizzicato and wood-blocks simulate the ticking of a clock - time Blumiere and Timpani experienced in their past before coming to this dimension. Finally, the medley ends with "Proof of Existence", which is the last scene of our four heroes and Bleck's minions lamenting the loss of Tippi and Bleck, happy in some other world together. The medley is arranged for four violin parts, piano, and orchestra. Please enjoy!

Caitlin: https://www.youtube.com/c/CaitlinAyala Joshua: https://www.youtube.com/user/CityFolk66 Warp Whistles Music: https://www.youtube.com/c/WarpWhistlesMusic When I first heard this song in Stardew Valley, I immediately wanted to cover it after hearing the vibraphone/marimba 16th notes in the second half. Then there were a bunch of fun auxiliary parts and a killer bongo part... This song just screamed percussion cover at me! There are many other layers to this song with the harp/strings/woodwinds, so I knew I'd need some amazing musician friends to help me bring this cover to life. Again, huge thank you to all of them for playing in this collab with me! 0:00 big spring collab time 3:58 whoa surprise voice reveal and announcements Don't forget to check out our Deltarune Field of Hopes and Dreams collab over on Caitlin's channel! https://youtu.be/9dNJ__p30UQ Want me to cover more Stardew Valley music?
