Final Fantasy V’s Gilgamesh Theme on the Guitar

August 18th, 2008 by PhilthBot69

Okay folks, so it seems that at least one person and potentially the PanicBot5000 (it’s never easy to read his emotions at the best of times) kinda liked the F-Zero Guitar vid I recently posted. In order for my ego to get at least partially satisfied I’m gonna give you lot some more.

So the track this time is the Gilgamesh Theme from Final Fantasy V as arranged by the Black Mages, titled “Clash on the Big Bridge”

Yes I’m wearing sunglasses indoors. Not just to fend off the bright light but also to make me look more cool. Rather than playing over the main melody, I added a lower octave harmony part to thicken up the sound. That and I couldn’t resist playing the keyboard solo which almost kinda works. Mostly.

So I made probably a whole deal of mistakes and stuff which is normal, but given that I look so damned cool in those sunglasses I’m sure you’ll all cope.

As you can tell by the amount of sunlight (and my lack of hair), this was not filmed in the last couple of weeks. Right now there’s more chance on me surviving on a diet of pins than there is chance that sunshine will rear it’s head in the UK during ‘summer-time’.

I have several more of these vids in the works and may consider doing requests if you desire. Especially if there is bribary or money involved. For all you guitarists out there, I may even consider a small video lesson or two…

Peace, Love and Good Happiness Stuff,

A Medley of F-Zero on the Guitar

August 15th, 2008 by PhilthBot69

What a treat I have for you the dear reader and robot fan on this fine summer-time Friday morning. Well ok it’s not so fine or summer-like; to be honest it’s raining and dark with the occasional spot of thunder in the background. Either way, now seems as good a time as any to drag-out this old chestnut for your aural pleasure. Go on, click the video and take a listen, you know you want to…

The soundtrack I’m playing over is the “F-Zero X Guitar Arrange Version” album which is sadly out of print and very difficult to find these days. Plus point, some nice bod went and uploaded the entire thing onto Youtube so if you wanted to listen that’s a great place to start.

Now then, if you are good, eat your greens, and the PanicBot5000 permits, I may post in the near future more guitar videos for you. That’d be nice wouldn’t it?
