@Philip Tucker Matt has a youtube channel called Hat Trax where he has a lot of bass covers. I think he's a PhD in computer science now. I found him around 2012 or so. Man does he shred it on bass. Real raw talent.
nice. props to the drummer for that flutter-kick work, the pianist for his left hand, the bassist for smart chord work and to the violinist for flawless intonation on shifts (also for being gorgeous I guess) I dig this group!
Being a pianist, a bassist, and a drummer I can't help but be very impressed by all of your performances. The composition of the violin was fantastic. Somehow I find that I was most impressed by the bass. Thank you for doing this!
Indeed, I would define this song as "bass porn". No offense to the rest of the performers, they're awesome but the bass... jeez, gives me the chills :)
Thanks! Yeah, we ended up splitting out the piano (although there's also a typical stereo part under it as well) into left and right hands. It makes it a bit easier to get some stereo width without wider instrumentation.
+mklachu You really know how to make your violin sing. I've listened to a lot of violin video game covers, and yours has some of the most organic, soulful sound. Keep it up!
+Thumocracy Thank you so much!! For the past few years, I've been focusing on the musicality of my playing, but I'm always striving to improve the way I sound (along with improving my mediocre technique). Haha, much appreciated :)
2020 and I'm just finding this video today. Absolutely phenomenal. Going to check out your page today and hope you're still making music. It's hard to find musicians who can take such a great song and actually IMPROVE it...each one of you adds such distinctive flair...it's just so well done I don't even have words to express my admiration and appreciation! With the FFVII remake just about 45 days away, I can't help but think Square should highlight fan remakes/remixes, and this should be on that list!
I never thought JENOVA would groove and yet here we are. It's a strange juxtaposition given how sinister the original song is but I dig it. Great work!
Its like you guys lost the best bassist in the world and found the other best bassist in the world. Like really tetrimino has the most awesome bass ever even if its not the same guy
I really want to try to finish FF VII again. This is an amazing cover of J-E-N-O-V-A and Birth of a God. J-E-N-O-V-A is one of my favorite Final Fantasy songs ever and it is nice to hear a version that is this awesome. This is my first time hearing Birth of a God and my first impressions of it is pretty damn good.
You guys are such a powerhouse group. Your energetic approach always breathes new life into old classics; I'd love to see your take on it now. It's pretty hot stuff.
you guys don't to disappear, it is too epic, more that girl play her violin i sense you guys more energetic.. no, you guys have your playing style keep doing jazz style and that violin girl... #SorryBadEnglish
涙曲であり幸曲であり美曲である。そして何より名曲である。 ３００年後も違う銀河で歌われているだろう。愛の速度は光よりも速いのだから。。。 It is a tear and a song and it is a beautiful song. And, above all, it is a masterpiece. After 300 years it will be sung on a different galaxy. Because the speed of love is faster than light. .
Stumbled upon you guys by accident. Definitely glad I did. lots of talent, you work well together. Subscribed happily. :) On a related note, that was a sick playing of my favorite song from FF7. Everyone seems to love One Winged Angel but Birth of a God always got me pumped up.
I love your interpretation of this, and you are very talented. My only advice would be to add in the discord a little. Some people are so afraid to use discord in music, but in this song, the discord gives it that spooky element.
Forget Nobuo Uematsu, Enix should be hiring you guys for the musical score of the FF7 remake. At least for the final boss soundtracks... this seriously gave me goosebumps.
This gets a solid 9.5/10. The only thing that detracts is the tone of the bass. It made everything sound like funky jazz. It lightened the tone up a bit too much. That bass needs some crunch! But really, it's not some fatal flaw or anything--this may be one of my favorite renditions.

Listening to this again... and unf, we are so effing awesome
You are amazing in this! New favorite performance of yours! :D Nice one!
Michael Marhal Thanks a bunch, man! I had a great time working on this one :)
mklachu it is just... beautiful
mklachu It made me sub...
posting comments on your own video....
I have gone through probably 5 videos so far and this bassist is sick.
THAT is one hell of a bassist
Don’t you mean he “are” sick? Lol

They're all awesome
yeah, this guy are sick
Any of y'all listening in December 2020... You know why you're here.
Cause i just got the original ffvii on switch?
REMAKE!!!!!
The reunion is close
Dude this might be the sickest, most original version I've heard
The way in which this piece transposes into Birth of a God at 1.26 - pure awesomeness.
I still think this is one of the quintessential Tetrimino covers, along with Vampire Killer.
String Player Gamer Lamprey destroys
I agree!
Everything being played is amazing but the violin on birth of a god is just legendary
THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING. Seriously, great job Tetromino. This sounds great. The bassist kills it. The piano party at 1:20 is eargasmic.
PIANO PARTY
This is an amazing perform. Congratulations
2024 and I 'm here again,I can't forgive ,now with FFVIIR2,always in my ear and heart
nice. props to the drummer for that flutter-kick work, the pianist for his left hand, the bassist for smart chord work and to the violinist for flawless intonation on shifts (also for being gorgeous I guess)
I dig this group!
Being a pianist, a bassist, and a drummer I can't help but be very impressed by all of your performances. The composition of the violin was fantastic. Somehow I find that I was most impressed by the bass. Thank you for doing this!
Thanks!!
Indeed, I would define this song as "bass porn". No offense to the rest of the performers, they're awesome but the bass... jeez, gives me the chills :)
Linixion The bassist is basically shredding and sweeping on a bass
Dat bass. Dat snare. Dat violin solo.
Dat piano.
Dat keyboard.
Dat skill.
Dem fingers, unf.
mklachu Dat hat, dose headphones......
HatTrax That amazing shirt tho!!!
dat red couch!!!
This has been one of my most favorite remixes for years and years. 💕
That bassist is fire son!
All of you did such a good job on this piece!
I especially enjoy the sound of Michaela's violin, it's lovely
Whoaaa this mix. I've never noticed until now how the piano hands are divided: left hand in the left ear and right hand in the right ear
Thanks! Yeah, we ended up splitting out the piano (although there's also a typical stereo part under it as well) into left and right hands. It makes it a bit easier to get some stereo width without wider instrumentation.
BeingBadAtMaths Thanks!! I worked particularly hard on the writing for this one.
Oh, that's what my problem was. The music's fine, I just need new headphones. No right speaker. :(
This is freaking incredible, I think it's your best video. Incredible arrangement. Love the beginning the most.
I think this is the best Michaela has ever sounded. Smooth sustains and very nice crescendos.
+mklachu You really know how to make your violin sing. I've listened to a lot of violin video game covers, and yours has some of the most organic, soulful sound. Keep it up!
+Thumocracy Thank you so much!! For the past few years, I've been focusing on the musicality of my playing, but I'm always striving to improve the way I sound (along with improving my mediocre technique). Haha, much appreciated :)
Bassist steals the whole show. It's amazing.
SO GOOD!!
You guys never cease to amaze me!
MKLA
Ahhhhh, thanks Dan :')
This is an excellent rendition of the Jenova theme--probably one of the best I've heard. It's awesome!
2:37 I knew there would be double bass somewhere /m/ 2:26 omg the piano and violin
バイオリンの人の目力、半端ない！
Bass player is fantastic!

This is freaking awesome. Well done! 😎👊🏽✌🏽💪🏽👍🏽
Amazing cover guys,I can see you worked so hard on this, the result is incredible
So glad I found you guys! Your arrangements and skill are incredible!
I still watch this video because both are my favorite soundtracks
I never thought JENOVA would groove and yet here we are. It's a strange juxtaposition given how sinister the original song is but I dig it. Great work!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH OH MY GOOOODDDDDDDD
I SWEAR I WATCH THIS VIDEO LIKE 8 TIMES A WEEK
Wow. Jaw dropped. I am on the floor dead. This was so damn good.
I love this. You are all awesome and this bassist is damn epic haha. Makes me happy to see him proving how much you can add with a Bass.
Man, this is even tighter than usual. Incredible work!
The dude on the bass is PARTYING, love it when y'all get to have fun
Gaaaaaah real musicians playing amazing music! Cannot say how happy I am to have found this channel.
Its like you guys lost the best bassist in the world and found the other best bassist in the world.
Like really tetrimino has the most awesome bass ever even if its not the same guy
Oh you.. stahhhhp ;)
This is hypnotic to watch (and listen too).
I just fell down the rabbit hole and discovered this channel. I'm even done wit the video and I LOVE THIS SHIT!!!!! please keep it up!!!!
i always like it when a video game cover isn't just metal
I really want to try to finish FF VII again. This is an amazing cover of J-E-N-O-V-A and Birth of a God. J-E-N-O-V-A is one of my favorite Final Fantasy songs ever and it is nice to hear a version that is this awesome. This is my first time hearing Birth of a God and my first impressions of it is pretty damn good.
What does Mklachu think she's doing... trying to play the sexy bass part at 2:02
What a silly girl, no bass for you.
Nah, feel free.
-Bass bro
I almost got really pissed until I saw who commented that
That bass track is UNREAL. Wow.
Fantastic.
That bass tone is always just so perfect. Awesome work peoples keep banging my ears with your hot music!

¡Wow! can't stop reapeating this video.

Spot-on, as usual ! 8-)
Thank you Marc-E-Marc :D
Hey Grandpa Marc, when is that new medley coming out? I've been waiting for ages!
Yayyy, thanks Marc ;)
Well done!! Really pretty cover. I've never seen this combination of instruments before, and it sounds really cool!
You guys are such a powerhouse group. Your energetic approach always breathes new life into old classics; I'd love to see your take on it now. It's pretty hot stuff.
Thanks!! We go through and read every comment, ones like these mean a lot! :D
you guys don't to disappear, it is too epic, more that girl play her violin

You guys never fail to deliver awesome covers!
Love this, really good work. Look forward to watching your other videos.
This is Rockin! Excellent instrumentation and performances!
You guys make me happy. Fucking amazing job!
First vid I've watched of you guys and I gotta say I am very much looking forward to hearing more! Amazing job all around!
Man, you're amazing! In particular, I love the bass here.
That was very impressive and really fun to listen to. Thanks!
JENOVA I LOVE YOU
Alright, you convinced me, I guess i'm abroad the train. Thanks for the amazing re-interpretation
I love you guys more and more.
Thanks bRo bby
IM HAVING AN EARGASM, THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
Great covers. The light around the drummer makes him look like his in a comic book or something
Very impressive guys, can't wait to see what else you can do!!!
This is wonderful
You guys nailed it!
damn that really blends well I like how it's put together
Your transition between the songs is very great.
涙曲であり幸曲であり美曲である。そして何より名曲である。 ３００年後も違う銀河で歌われているだろう。愛の速度は光よりも速いのだから。。。

ベースのアレンジがいいですね。
How does this not have more views? I love this cover.
You all are amazing. You helped me relieve some amazing memories.
This is so clean..
This is givin me some crisis core vibes.. LOVIN IT!!
:D
It so cool. FF7 was one of my favorite game in 98.
Keep up the awesome work, guys!
Stumbled upon you guys by accident. Definitely glad I did. lots of talent, you work well together. Subscribed happily. :)
On a related note, that was a sick playing of my favorite song from FF7. Everyone seems to love One Winged Angel but Birth of a God always got me pumped up.
Nicely done as a collaborative effort. With class and power
Third vid of yours I've seen, loving everything so far. Won yourselves a subscriber :).
Amazing
I love your interpretation of this, and you are very talented. My only advice would be to add in the discord a little. Some people are so afraid to use discord in music, but in this song, the discord gives it that spooky element.
Fucking JENOVA cover at fucking work dude!? Hell yeah!!!
That look in Michaela eyes... she knows she's a Badass straight up
That was pretty damn awesome, good show folks!
Forget Nobuo Uematsu, Enix should be hiring you guys for the musical score of the FF7 remake. At least for the final boss soundtracks... this seriously gave me goosebumps.
+TheArcticBaboon Nobuo Uematsu left that shitty company after the merger. So blame squeenix for all failure of future FF titles since 12.
+Omega666Evil Well that's depressing. I miss when it was Squaresoft.
This is awesome!
I love the bass! You rock!
so many years late to this, but it's awesome
This gets a solid 9.5/10. The only thing that detracts is the tone of the bass. It made everything sound like funky jazz. It lightened the tone up a bit too much. That bass needs some crunch! But really, it's not some fatal flaw or anything--this may be one of my favorite renditions.
Subbed! You guys are amazing. Gonna share your videos with some friends. Keep up the good work :)
holy shit someone else in the same day as me :D
If I could like this a hundred times, I would.
