Well, here it is. Tim Follin's music orchestrated. Never thought it would actually happen, though I do hear some mistakes here and there. It's not easy translating his music to an orchestra, especially this track as it's far suited to a prog band. Still, it's a welcome treat. Thank you so much for making this!

[@ArlanKels]

I'd love to know if Tim Follin cried a little the first time he saw his work being performed by an orchestra.

[@JamminReviews]

Wow! Tim Follin music certainly is not easy to perform live, but you did very well!

[@nthgth]

This tune still doesn't get the popularity it deserves. Very well done, it sounds extremely difficult.

[@tatsujincorp]

It’s crazy to think, that the original 8-bit 4-channel NES does even sound better than a whole acoustic concert.
Tim really is a genius.

[@SilverHeartz]

Absolutely amazing!

[@nathanfrank9424]

Idk why, but ive been on a Tim Follin kicker. I wish my director had let us do something cool like this when I was in school. These kids should be proud of how well this went.

[@dejiko]

This deserves so many more views.

[@mirandamrozek5939]

Beautiful! I did not expect to find an orchestral version of this piece, and here it is! And not only that but live!

[@Ed-Ge]

Félicitations ! On aimerait entendre du Tim Follin orchestré plus souvent.

[@mynameisnothere9465]

AHHH I'm so excited that an orchestra did this song! Awesome!

[@ArcherJadephoenix]

This is so much closer to fully realizing the complexity and fullness that dang 8 bit score tried to (and kinda actually did to some degree) achieve. Brilliantly done - I wish more people would try their hand at it.

If someone told me this was a career option as a kid, I would be in this video

[@kimdonaghy4654]

Thank you for posting it even if it isn't the most famous

[@JohnnyLeven]

I have to give a thumbs up just for even attempting this

[@SPFAN67]

woah, nostalgia trip.

[@PseudoWounds]

You guys never stop amazing me!

This is simply beautiful.

[@Vinyboyful]

If you put on the speed 1x25 You'll have a closer time to the Nes original composition.

[@lewiji]

Funny thing is, the PAL version is about this fast and the US version is faster. The different framerate adjusts the speed of the music

[@brekedekdang39]

Awesome! It's too bad not enough people are familiar with the music the game.

[@satanfranjav]

Wow

[@jhonathansanchezlozada1829]

[@melissawickersham9912]

Equinox Soundtrack, when?

[@aceofspades02]

the "Solstice" of this music, is not about the Sun events. It is about a Nintendo video game, back in 1989.

[@NEStalgia]

@@aceofspades02 Equinox is Solstice 2, the game sequence

[@aceofspades02]

@@NEStalgia never heard of. Thanks for the information.

[@Persuun]

Pls music ape scape 3

[@agentgumby4418]

Imagine you were in middle school band, preparing for the big spring concert, and your teacher started handing out the new sheet music. "All right guys, get ready to melt some faces...we're doin Solstice." 🧙‍♂️🪄

When a full orchestra attempts to perform your chiptune musical composition for a mediocre-at-best, forgotten video game, that is how you know you did a good job.
