Ironically enough, I have even less time to make videos since I’m doing overtime at my job, which isn’t helping me mentally. This mashup was something I thought up as a response to everything regarding the coronavirus outbreak (aka COVID-19). This outbreak got me thinking about games like “Nier: Automata”, “Fragile Dreams” & “Enslaved: Odyssey to the West” as I looked at images & footages of cities left barren because of the virus.
Occasionally, I’ve been singing to myself “Over the Rainbow” to calm myself, & I noticed how well it fits with “City Ruins”. Initially was going to pitch shift the vocals to match Nier’s theme, but I’ve quickly learnt how much the major key sound of Over the Rainbow clashes really badly. As a result, I kept it as it is.
The begining footage is taken of Manchester, England (an hour bus ride from me). The footage shows how empty the city centre has become. Although that was some time ago, I wouldn't be surprised if it has gotten busy again. Unfortunately, people can't seem to stay indoors for so long.
This isn’t my usual work, but I hope enjoy this. I want to make more Nier: Automata mashups in the future, & I have an idea or 2 noted down – Enjoy!
Update:I only just learnt that the first NieR is getting a remaster for the PS4 - Talk about Perfect Timing!
