Pajama Jam #1
« on: December 20, 2008, 04:27:17 pm »
A Pajama Jam is when you wake up in the morning, and wander over to the piano to play whatever the hell you feel like while still in your PJs. I recently did so with some Aquaria music in mind. Check it out! :)

I replied to your video, but I'll say it again here. I wish I was that talented on the piano. I do all my music electronically. However I can play stuff that I create well enough, however I can't read music. : / Anyways, that's an awesome video, and thanks for sharing more of your talents. Looking forward to the OST release with some nice tracks like that. :)

Wow! I mean... being an incredeible forum admin, you also have skillz in piano! :D And you play it pretty well... my mother was a pianist when I was younger too... I also like the way you put emotion into your play... you really get sucked up by the song you play... which is the trait of all musician! (I lived with two :D)

Well... Really, I'm looking forward to the OST with such supplementary stuff like piano version and all... :)

Could you post the sheet music for that piece Alec? Thanks! It's much truer to the soundtrack than my halfhearted attempts.  ::)

I agree, you are indeed very talented Alec it's no wonder that Aquarias music is a pleasure to play along to :D I've downloaded it so I can listen to it any time, especially as FF crashed halfway through your performance :(

Good golly I love watching you play :)

Chibi: I'm not sure he has sheet music for it?? At least not that I've seen. Every time I've seen him play something from Aquaria he did so from memory.

I was wondering if he could transcribe the music.

You made me cry.

 
Dear god, is there anything you can't do Alec?! :)

Apparently not - Alec is a veritable Jack of all Trades. What else can he do? >_>  :)

Hopefully the arrangements will be included in the OST booklet, so I can scan some "easy ones" (are there some tracks, that are playable even for beginners ?), enlarge/print them and play some by myself (although I am aware, that it definitly won't sound as good as yours Alec)  ;)
[or in a easier way, perhaps you could just put them as some kind of copy protected PDF documents on the CD :D ]

Than how about a "who-copies-Alecs-Pajama-Jam-Session-1-at-best"  :P
At least we could try something else, perhaps I could cook a "Dream Meal" in some kind of sleepwalking mode.
Mh, lets see what the christmas days will bring :P

The best I could do is to paint a picture of Naija, I am in no way multi talented except on the art side and even there I'm no great artist :(
