I'm going through the top 20 Favorite Video Game Songs of all time as voted on by my community. This came in at number 9!

Well... Here it is.

I have had an interesting relationship with this song over the years to say the least. It was requested so often that it made me looking for songs from suggestions in the comments useless. Though I love Undertale and it's music, this one song was almost so overwhelming I just couldn't even know where to begin with covering it as it's own project. There was just way too much expection to feel comfortable taking it on. This Top 20 project felt like the perfect opportunity to finally put the wait to rest and I very much hope you guys enjoy it.

It's so hard to know where to go with something like this. I went in very conflicted because I had no idea how to go about it that wasn't already done. It felt like a disservice going with any one thing, so I decided to mix elements of Synthwave, Djent, and Orchestra into one to really capture the magnitude of this chaotic song. I really tried to put it's memehood aside and tackle it from the most organic place I could, really trying to capture elements of the guitar tone used in the Earthbound Overdriven guitar sound that Toby used so prominently. It was tough because it's so fizzy and trebly that every iteration felt too tinny and harsh that I ended up reaching for the Neural Archetype Petrucci and making a tone from scratch, and then scrapping it for my regular lead tone and making broad adjustments to it. The result is a pretty cooked tone, but one that sit suprisingly well in the mix with my brand new Axe FX rhythm tone utilizing an EVH modeled amp. For once I actually found myself trying to fill out the mix rather than cutting room for other instruments. I even got to play with boosting mids on the rhythm tone during the break section before the solo.

And of course, how could I do this without paying homage to the most viewed video across all of my channels. That doorbell deserves a deep cleaning after how many times I've programmed it to play this. It felt like the perfect drop instrument, so forgive probably the final feature of it playing this god foresaken song.

I really want to iterate how difficult it was to release this. Actually producing it was a breeze since I've been playing this song constantly since it came out, but to finally do it's own video and release it to the world is something else entirely. It's hard to explain, but I hope the feelings reach you.

I sincerely hope you enjoy this project of a cover 8 years in the making.

Thanks so much for watching! This is the 9th highest song on list of your most favorite video game songs of all time. Subscribe if you haven't already and see the rest of the top 10 video game songs of all time!
