This is my entry.

I have a couple other videos to post but I'll post them separately. One is a performance without the accents, which actually makes dynamic and tonal expression a bit easier!

PS Clanver, I noticed that Trang, you, and I are all above tempo. Did you find that when you added the accents, you had a tendency to play faster? Cause that's how it happened with me. I was playing it at 104, but when I added the accents I just FELT like playing faster.

And then I realized that the chord progression from Chrono Cross's Another World is the same progression as the chorus from Peace of Mind by Boston, and life was never quite the same.

Here is one without the accents, actually at tempo. I wanted to integrate the tonal and dynamic contrasts while still using the accents, but I didn't manage it in time. Just to be explicitly clear, "THIS IS NOT AN ENTRY". haha

And here's the electric recording, just for variety's sake:

PS oh right, I forgot I look like a melancholic mofo playing the electric version--I think because getting used to the thin neck was...emo inducing? I dunno.

I'm pretty sure Trang is younger than me though. I'm one of the "old farts" in this place by internet standards. :p (28)

Thanks Ennea! I spent...probably 4-5 hours between practicing and recording. It was split up where I'd do like 30 minutes every day (and even that might be split up into smaller sessions).

I actually looked up the time difference, lol. You are 6 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time in the US, so when it is 10 pm for you (or just 22:00 hours), it is only 4 pm for us.

I know I was only allowed one entry, that's why I said "THIS IS NOT AN ENTRY" for the other ones :p

New one will be up soon!

You always get me to cave in, Trang... even when I try to discipline you with tough love.

You are forgiven.
