      amateur sound designer here: im pretty sure it's because one of the microphone's "ears" phases are inverted somehow. this means that each ear effectively cancels the other one out and makes it sound like there's a phantom third channel that is inside your head. so yeah that's pretty cool. if OP is reading this, i think you can fix it by dragging your recorded vocals into audacity (or other,) splitting each ear into it's own channel, inverting one, then exporting it again. i've tried this myself and it should work.

    Nice video, I did some analysis myself and I'm kind of inclined to disagree but the harmony is kinda wacky and ambiguous in the first couple of bars. To my ears it sounds like the first bar is a full bar of IV, mainly because of the bass, but the melody also outlines the third with its highest note. In this case, Jerma would certainly be foolish in his note choice, as the Cb over Gb sounds really bad. HOWEVER looking at the rest of the song, the second bar sounds like Db/F which makes a nice plagal cadence with good bass movement to go into a very obvious ii-V in the 3rd bar. Then, to go back to the top of the progression, there is a CLEAR I7 secondary dominant in the fourth bar going into the IV. So maybe Jerma is still a genius, just with really shit timing. This song has some fun harmony, and secondary dominants are definitely a theme (like the second time around the progression goes IV | III7 - VImaj7 (!!!) tonicising the VI, which is really bright with the D natural in the VI chord) and is another example of Nintendo's composers making insane music for random ass games.

    • @gleptube
      @gleptube  2 месяца назад +8

      I knew it was only a matter of time before someone pointed out that the first bar is all IV! Figured I could make my point better fudging the harmony a bit and leaving out the subsequent measures though, and I was mostly expecting a non-musical audience, but I appreciate your analysis.

    I love that warning in the beginning.
    EDIT: Is your microphone positioned too high?

      @@sierracrowe3473 yes, I used a room mic to get piano and voice rather than doing a dedicated voiceover. I am paying a hefty price for that mistake 😔

      ​@@gleptubeThe microphone wasn't that bad it was the fact that the sound for everything else was triple the volume that made it bad for me personally

    This is an amazing video analysis but the volume balance makes it really hard to hear your voice and other parts of the video are very loud in comparison. Otherwise, great content!
