Shadow of the Colossus is an incredible game with one of my favorite soundtracks. I've been wanting to cover this song for a while, so as soon as RichaadEB announced his cover contest I basically dropped everything and got to work. I threw everything I had at this cover, playing over 20 instruments live for it (everything is 100% acoustic, no VSTs used), and I definitely feel I pushed myself to a new limit and created a new standard of production for myself. I've been really enjoying creating covers the past few months and putting them out here on YouTube, so I look forward to creating more as I learn more and become a better musician. :)
I'd like to give a HUGE thanks to:
David, for helping with filming and lighting, letting me borrow your camera lenses/mics/piano, and being an all-around badass housemate;
Parz, for letting me borrow your camera, kick mic, and drum kit;
Kevin, for lending me your tenor;
Sara, for letting me use your lovely lap harp;
UW taiko, for letting me rent a freaking taiko drum;
and Jordan, Tiago, Luci, Kristin, Mkla, Mike, Akash, and Ryan for your mixing advice and support!
Thank you for watching
