Man, where to begin on this one... so my story with Hollow Knight started back in last December, when I lost my Switch on the train coming back from a weekend trip I took to New York City. I unfortunately lost my Switch and all my physical games, but I had purchased Hollow Knight a while back as a digital download... and man, am I glad I did! I got a new Switch in February, installed Hollow Knight (since I had already purchased it), and loved it. It's such a great game. Not done with it yet, just about 10 hours in.
The idea to cover this song came from my request sheet, actually! I've been feeling a bit burnt out of all the Sinnoh music that I've been covering lately, so I decided to take a look at the Song Request sheet I maintain, and see if there were any songs that stood out. To my surprise, there were a lot of requests for this song and City of Tears (which I might do next) from Hollow Knight - I had no idea there was quite a demand for this music. The request sheet is really nice for helping me understand what you guys want to hear, and to discover new games with great music that I should play! Please consider submitting a request if you have one!
You may have seen from the video and the thumbnail that I have a new upright bass! A friend of mine is leaving Berklee soon, and was looking to downsize a bit, so he sold me this upright bass at a bargain. I love playing it so much, it's so much better than using samples to get MIDI upright bass sounds, haha, it looks so much better on camera too. It's really hard to play well, as my intonation on it isn't super great (I will admit, I used quite a bit of Melodyne on the bass in this cover to get it better in tune), but I am looking forward to continuing to practice, improve, and use it in future videos!
To me, the atmosphere in Greenpath feels pretty dark, but also cozy at the same time. I wanted to reflect that with this arrangement, so I went for an arrangement in the style of Brian Blade and the Fellowship Band! I've been really into groups that use bass clarinet as part of the horn section, and Myron Walden of the Fellowship Band plays a mean bass clarinet. I really wanted to stretch the timbral capabilities of the jazz combo, so I kept the instrumentation fairly simple, while also striving to use unique unison combinations to add a lot of color throughout the arrangement. Having a real upright bass made this so much more fun. In addition, being able to record live drums has been such a blessing! I used timpani mallets, sticks, and brushes in this cover to get a huge variety of timbral possibilities out of the drumset, and I'm super pleased with it. I've got a Promark Sizzler chain on top of the ride cymbal, and I think it sounds awesome when you hit the cymbal with a mallet. Of course, a cymbal with real rivets would be nicer, but maybe someday...
I always like to give my arrangements a pretty big sense of contour, and this one developed quite nicely! I knew I wanted some really quiet sections like the intro with fingered electric guitar and double bass in the high register, and also some louder sections like the climax of the sax solos in the middle of the chart and towards the end. It's kinda cool to look at the waveform of the audio file when I've finished mixing to see how well the waveform compares to my intentions dynamically speaking. Hope you guys enjoy this one!
