[Touhou] Bad Apple!! Remake with Live Playing [HD]

Posted on 2010-01-15 at 07:58 in Music, Touhou, Videos by Robbi-985.

An attempt at remaking the Alstroemeria Records remix of “Bad Apple!!”, the stage 3 theme from Touhou 04: Lotus Land Story. It took about 8 days in total. I added a lot of improvisation during the main “chorus” part. Major thanks to my brother (Steeeven1 on YouTube) for playing the guitar part, and going from never having heard it before, learning it, and having it recorded in less than 2 hours.

The looping backing part which I played on the keyboard is seriously annoying to play, so I put some lights on to annoy everyone else. …No, not really. I just thought they livened things up a bit. xD

This is a birthday present to someone who finds the original version of “Bad Apple!!” awesome. I hope this can live up to that…

High-quality MP3 is here, and link to the video on Niconico Douga for those who want to leave scrolling comments is here.

TECHNICAL RUBBISH:

  • Lead electric guitar played by Stevn-986 aka Steeeven1 on a Kerry King Wartribe.
  • Bass and percussion played from a MIDI (made by me) on a Korg Radias synth.
  • Lead synth played by me with a Yamaha SHS-10 keytar, using the Radias synth.
  • Backing loop played by me on a Yamaha PSR-E313 keyboard, using the Radias synth.
  • Background rhythm guitar chords played from the MIDI on Melody Assistant.
