This is originally a song from the game, Kingdom Hearts, that I really enjoy listening to especially when I’m relaxing, so I decided to cover the song as a basis for learning how to mix and arrange instruments on my keyboard that were beyond just the Live! Grand Piano.

I’m not particularly too fond of the piano and bass combination, but somehow that got resolved with some recording issues Audacity had. For some reason, Audacity was having some issues recording the bass track into my laptop, and even when it did, the bass came out a bit faint. Increasing the gain or amplifying it didn’t help too much either. So you don’t hear it very much compared to the recording on the keyboard, but it’s still there.

I kind of tapped out the cymbal on the keyboard very much like how one would tap out DDR/ITG steps idly. It’s kind of embarrassing to admit, but as I was recording I was visualizing red, blue, and purple arrows. Specifically, right arrows for some unknown reason.
