  1. The weirdest part about being a Play By Ear pianist is that you get, like... "Mains."

    In Super Smash Bros., I main Link, Zelda, Sheik, Corrin, and Inkling Girl. Sure, I can play other characters from time to time - and I can play many of them well, or even better than I do said Mains. But I always come back to my Mains because they're familiar and fun to play.

    It's the same with the songs I know on piano, but... a little more loosely. Field of Hopes and Dreams, the Legend of Zelda main theme, a couple scuffed anime OPS; but because I don't play them by sheet music or even just regular memorization, they tend to sort of fuse together with other songs at random intervals. I know a boatload of Zelda songs, which are pretty easy to incorporate into the main theme as long as you aren't deaf; and melding the Asriel Dreemurr bossfight theme (which, btw, is called "Hopes and Dreams") with the Field of Hopes and Dreams theme (which, btw, is called "Field of Hopes and Dreams") is just so satisfying as long as it doesn't suck.

    Did you know that every single song that isn't in 11/14 with eight billion natural indicators can be transferred into Zelda's Lullaby? And every Mario song is so frighteningly bizarre that learning them by pattern is nigh-on impossible?

     

     

    I bring this up because I've figured out Those Who Fight from FFVII and it's so much fun

      "Play by pirating sheet music" is how that happens.

      it's not pirating if I'm just following the .midi videos from Sheet Music Boss to conceptualize the key rhythm before figuring out the rest on my own
