My Piano Transcription Posts

I have wanted to make a "master post" of them all in one place, and sorta had one started, posted a couple years back, but I can't even find it now, so I figured I'd start one. Any time I post a new one of my piano transcriptions to YouTube, I'll add it to the bottom this post. I'll put them up in the order I made them, with the oldest at the top.

If you're one of the newer folks you may not have known about these. Read the notes on each video, I've done my best to be as thorough as possible on the explanation side as I can about how and why, and I hope y'all connect with the music.

Music saved my life as a kid, and it kinda never stopped, I guess.

Hope y'all enjoy.

Until next time!

fucking love music i love that it, like all art, its subjective its absolutely fascinating and so frustrating,

i love songs that fuck with time sigs and keys specifically, like hearing that like "this bit in this song could be this chord which makes it this key but if you take this note as the root and OH SHIT its in first inversion it changes the key of this whole bit oopsie" idk any specific examples but idkidkidk

I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with some incredible talents. One standout was Anton Helman, a master of keyboard arranging. We teamed up for the first two surface2sound albums, producing what I still consider my best work in terms of fidelity and cohesion.

Recently, Anton and I reconnected. As we reminisced about our past projects, I pitched him an idea: translating my latest composition using his diverse keyboard collection and arrangements. The synergy was immediate. In just two hours, we crafted a song that felt like magic.

Anton’s musical prowess and humility shone through as he expertly captured the mood of the piece. In this composition, I envisioned a scene of canoe tripping through the remote Canadian wilderness, with an eerie silence preceding an approaching storm front. The music conveyed the tension of watching the skies as lightning and thunder drew nearer, eventually passing overhead before receding into the distance. #bandcampfriday #pianomusic #writ #insignia #pinkfloyd #canoecamping #canadiannorth #wildernessadventure

Haniah Rani Next on Gondwana Records with Third Album

Hania Rani, a Polish pianist, will release her third album, Ghost, on Gondwana Records. Ghosts builds on Rani’s her earlier successes Esja and Home with an expanded yet still minimal setup of piano, keyboards, and synths, and it features more of her mysterious, bewitching voice. It features Patrick Watson, Ólafur Arnalds, and Duncan Bellamy of Portico Quartet. If Rani’s debut, Esja, was about…

early 2000s music journalist trying desperately to get richard wright to talk shit about roger waters: i wouldn't call roger waters a good bassist, would you?

rick, extremely happy that someone has to listen to him: well honestly the way i play is an affront to god but miles davis is my idol so it doesn't matter. i want david gilmour so bad you have no idea

[posttexasstressdisorder]

Just did this a few minutes ago.  Finally have a setup that doesn’t make the neighbors complain.  Not the best sound, but it’s a start.   I’ve been playing this song in one form or another for well over thirty years.  Hadn’t had a chance to sit down and play for awhile.  Hope y’all like it.

'Tis time...my 'tism decided to challenge me and stand me up against the ultimate musical 'tism. Tobias Forge's

Influences in the music of the band Ghost (tributes, nods & inspirations)

Some of them are a very straightforward copy-paste action, some of them are smaller nods towards other artists and some of them are only influences, or even something I personally hear, but not everybody might. They are in order from most obvious to might-be-my-delusion. I didn't include covers because. Kinda obvious.

It is possible that some of these are simply samples, I didn’t look into that, but if I’m being completely honest, I don't think Tobias is a sample guy. Also, there’s couple examples from Impera alone, mostly because he spoke about his inspirations for it a fair amount, which makes it easier to trace, so to say.

This one goes first, because it's literally the same thing! Just reversed. I feel like that's common knowledge in the fandom, but I couldn't skip it. If you didn't know and Deus Culpa always hurts your ears (same), this is why!

(These two are in one file because Tumblr has an audio limit and I had to merge something) Tobias frequently speaks of his love for Metallica's music, as well as its members, so it's honestly no surprise hfhfh. He fangirls hard, and it even got him to open for them as we all know, so that's super cool!

I haven't seen/heard him talking about Opeth that much, but he is and/or used to be close with multiple members so again--no surprise at all.

This one is super interesting, because it's not only similar soud wise.

“[...] we recorded this album [IMPERA] in Atlantis Studio in Stockholm, [...] where ABBA recorded most of their hits. [...] it’s the exact same outboard gear, mixing console, microphones, marimba and piano we had around us. You’d play the piano and it would sound exactly the same as it did on Money, Money, Money.” --Tobias Forge for Guitar World

Not much to say about this one other than hell yeah, Michael Jackson.

This one also has a play on Europe's, which I find super cool! Swedish rock unites. From what I remember Tobias has also mentioned something about Whitesnake being an important influence.

(This one is empty for the first 10 seconds to go around the copyright scan) This is a cute little nod towards Pink Floyd that has Tobias put into live shows, and it's been a thing since 2015.

Another one that Tobias has spoken about for Guitar World.

“The double bass allowed for that Vinnie Paul [of Pantera] thing where there are triplet-feel things on the kick drum. Nothing against Pantera, but what influenced me there was actually a track called Blood Ritual by Samael, which had that feel I wanted to tap into.”

It was said about Watcher In The Sky, but I think same idea guided Twenties as well.

Griftwood was also talked about for Guitar World

“What made the song for me was the fact that there’s this crazy breakdown in what’s otherwise a Sunset Strip kind of thing, which I see as more Van Halen than Ratt.”

No song was mentioned by Tobias, but I had Talkin' 'Bout Love in mind even before I read this article, so I'd say it fits!

Pretty self explanatory, I think.

(This one is empty for the first 10 seconds to go around the copyright scan) Kansas is an absolute gem and to me it does sound like it was the inspiration here. Knowing how much respect Tobias has for rock classics, I'd say it's very possible he had Carry On Wayward Son in mind.

And that's it! Sorry if y'all hoped for more jfgjdfg but anyways, hope you enjoyed my yapping and, as always, any questions are very welcome :3
