Hey guys!
Hope you guys like my take on Kraid's Lair from Metroid. This is also the theme music of the level "Brinstar Depths" in Super Smash Bros Melee, my favorite video game ever.
Working on some really exciting things for the near future! Keep an eye out, and as always, thanks so much for watching!

This is why I dont want to give up on piano. I aspire to be as good as this one day.
+ShadowLord Zero Don't ever give up! Keep practicing and have fun!
Same, but I often find myself depressed because I feel like im not progressing :( Then I end on videos like this one, and jump on the piano for several hours
Just to be a d#$@. This is a keyboard!
@@thomassalas5191 a piano is also a keyboard.
@@azeaze9627 how good are you now
Hauntingly beautiful. Just like Metroid as a whole.
Holy shit - amazing interpretation. Most other people just transcribe the NES theme 1:1 but you clearly put a lot of thought into how you could utilize your skills to elevate this piece to another level. I'm in awe.
Thank you for the kind words!

And you did it without changing the spirit of the tune.
This is quite possibly, the best rendition of Kraid's Lair I've heard on RUclips (or anywhere else, for that matter).
This is absolutely beautiful. Great job and thank you!
tofu916 Try Lara/kraids lair
@@jat4651 Lara is good too, but not as creative, imo
@@internautelambda6417 Every comment you type is yet another stunning endorsement for abortion.
Dude, this is so good.
No joke, I felt tears swelling in. :')
More please.
just have to say my cursor scrolled over your name and i saw you have the Elliot Smith "figure" 8 cover as your account background, awesome.
Wow. This song wouldn't sound out of place in Symphony of the Night. Fitting, given that the game was what gave rise to the affectionate name of the sub-genre "MetroidVania".
I've been coming back to this video for years, it still gives me goosebumps and it's the reason I bought a piano and registered for music class
I just love how haunting this rendition is.
I've been listening to this video pretty much since you've released it. I just wanted to say this is better than ANY version ive heard of this song. What you do and how you play it is so smooth and emotional and impactful in every best way possible. I highly doubt anyone or anything could top this version of the song. Huge congrats, you are truly talented in writing and playing. I inspire to be as good as you someday. Cheers mate.
I get the chills every time I listen to this. Great job.
You have an amazing version of kraids lair right here. When you look at other people doing video game covers they like to improvise a bit to show their expertise with their instruments, but most of them sometimes go out of their way to make a cover that loses the feeling the original composer wants to portray of that song. You my friend did both. You managed to keep the feeling the composer had intended plus your added your little spin on it. I have to say it's amazing what you did here and I keep coming back to the video based on how good it is. Hats off, kudos, and good luck in future covers cuz I'll be watching them :)
That was a superior performance, I was not expecting you to have added so much harmony.
Wow, I've been following you for the last two years. And today I found this video! When I compare it to how your videos look today, it's good for me to see that we all started somewhere! Thanks to you and other RUclipsrs, I bought my first piano at the age of 33.
I get chills every time I listen to this! Haunting and beautiful, just wish it were longer, could listen all day!
Slower than the original, but I like the eerie addition to the song :D
+Darticus the Great Thank you!
Tickling those keys.... Got Damn that was good!
thats a nice sounding piano ! and of course well done ! I really love the way your created tension through your own arrangement only on piano. I am impressed, all thumps up that I have
Very beautiful version of this theme, between emotional and epic :)
Absolutely fantastic.
Okay, I'm impressed. I was happy to hear the arrangement of the music instead of a plain cover. Harosho!
Wow, stunning. Your improvs on the piece are fantastic.
That was beautiful.
5years later and ONLY on 77k views?? Wtf...this needs more..
Fuckin excellent!!
I love this verison of Kraid's Lair, great work!
This rendition gives me chills. Absolutely beautiful. Bravo!
If you would share the sheet music for this song exactly as you played it, I would be so grateful! This is, as others have said, the best version of Kraid's Lair I've ever heard! You played it spectacularly!! Sheet music would be a blessing.
Still my all time favorite piano cover and gives me goosebumps
Best version on RUclips!
Love Metroid! This is freaking beastly man!
Haunting
I could listen all day!
F in Awesome all the way through a big fan of your work the best version I heard your very blessed and talented keep up the great work one of my favorite games
Absolutely beautiful. Great job.
Daaayum a lesson in dynamics, phenomenal! Love it!
Incredible
kraid and phendrana have always been my favorites. kraid for much longer though (obvs). I love nintendo covers man you're Killin it.
Hands down, best song of the game! And played beautifully!
Best interpretation & execution ever
Thank you so much for this! What a fantastic arrangement. I was expecting just another typical cover but you took me on a musical Journey. 😮
Well done, indeed. That was fantastic.
+John-Marc Stanley Thank you!!
+TedescoCreations Every time I hear your arrangement of this track I get chills. It's riveting. I feel that it almost enters a late 80s Konami vibe, via Castlevania I-III. That's about the highest compliment I can offer. Truly inspiring work.
What a hidden gem this was! Thank you.
This is amazing.
Holy crap man that was amazing
just amazing bro great job!!!
The ending was easily the best part. It was so chilling wounding.
I am not a man that cries oft, but more than a tear was shed to this score.
Still si good....amazing sound and performance ! Nice work!
Oh my good, it's simply perfect, I got goosebums
bravo, belissimo this was the best rearrangement for this song
It remains a wonderful track. Thanks again.
Nice arrangement, very nice dynamic choices.
Damn.
Beautiul.
Your hands move with so much ease, I aspire!!! Great playing
best arrangement of this song yet made
Cool! It's just beautiful Men! Thumps up!
Masterful
I really like how you played it. Nice work!
This song is dope
AMAZING!!!!
Rachmaninov of the 80's. While easier to play, most certain, brinks the nostalgy of great 20 century composers. Sorry about my english, but truely a genious simple song. Thank you so much!
Outside of the Orchestra rendition of the Actraiser soundtrack this is the best rendition of an 8bit classic i've heard.
Much more chilling on a real instrument.
Beautiful
this is baller right here.
need a homework edit of this, and a drum machine too :D
dude THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would Purchase this version for sure!!!
Incredible.
so talented!
This is awesome Frank...
Very well done.
the bass line at 2:10 is epic
Awesome arrangement
that was amazing!!
Fantástico! Emblemático!
Amazing! 👏👏👏👏
Dope!
Excellent work. Thanks.
This is awesome !!! *______*
That was invigorating, good job, I actually feel inspired... now where's that pen.
this guy deserve medal
Absolutely love this. I'd pay for the sheet music. Not that I'll be able to play like this for another 10 years at least.
Excellent!
You really made a pure atmospheric masterpiece from an old NES game and I found it really awesome ! But NEED SHEET MUSIC PLEASE !
dayum bro
Wow! Great job :D
This is really good
That was really nice.
Hey that's awesome!
wow! awesome arpeggio's mate! ;D
Great work!!
Great work, being able to pay for a lossless version would be awesome
Wow, that's awesome!
Who's the asshole that disliked this masterpiece!
anyways this is by far THE best Kraid theme cover I've seen it's just freaking awesome. I started to learn the song a while ago but I can't seem to be able to play that part at 40-46 yet :/
this is so beautiful
something very eerie about this theme , should be used in a resident evil game
je ne pense pas vraiment que cela irai aux jeux resident evil...
You know what? I think this should have been Ridley's Lair's theme. Or just Ridley's Leitmotive. Considering that he's the main antagonist and he has so much relevance both to the plot and to Samus' character, I think he deserves more this beautiful and haunting song than some random fat dinossaur who comes the shit out of nowhere. It really fits Ridley better.
You want Ridley in Smash also right?
***** What? That doesn't have anything to do with my comment.
SpadesNoir Simple question is all.
I feel this is a bit to airy and elegant to be the big bad guy in the game.
Well keep in mind that I don't think that was established (also kraid is REALLY tiny in metroid ). Also look at Ridleys spirte in metroid 1.
Sick bro
Amazing! Your piano playing makes me only want to improve mine. Thanks!
I imagine Kraid playing this on an organ as you get closer to fighting him, a la OoT hahahaha.
then that would be like phantom of the opera, which I can picture
Does that mean Ganondarf was inspired by the Phantom? o_O
OH MY GOD I HAVE NEVER PICTURED IT LIKE THAT, YOU HAVE OPEN MY EYES 0-0
You have inspired me to improvise on this song
Fantastico, complimenti! 😉
The best!
