    The upbeats (and downbeat if they're at the end of someone's solo) are cut out to simplify the score for the video. They are included on the sheet music downloads. This was transcribed in three different notation software (GuitarPro for guitar + bass, Sibelius for drums and MuseScore for sax + piano) due to the preferences of the transcribers so there could be a couple of formatting stuff that might've been screwed up when exporting that I didn't notice!

      0:37 is the riff from Deep Purple's "Burn". Would make a bit more sense, right after Smoke on the Water i think.
      Also since when is Michio Kaku playing guitar? lmao

      ​@@ThaddeusSilva Koji Kondo has said that one of his main inspirations when writing Mario music is T-Square. The main Mario theme is definitely borrowing from the T-Square song 'Sister Marian', and in my opinion Soyo Oka's 'Battle Mode' music from Super Mario Kart borrows from the T-Square song 'Rodan'. The fact that members of T-Square (along with their contemporary band Dimension) now help create Mario music brings me great joy. T-Square's musical inspiration on Mario has come full circle.

    This is called jugalbandi in Indian/Pakistani classical music. Usually two or three artists will play, say, 16 or 32 measures each. Then the time is halved over and over and over again until each person is only playing one beat. After that, they all progressively start to meld together until it becomes an explosion of sound. It's a beautiful thing to behold.

Ustad Zakir Hussain playing with his father, Ustad Alla Rakha, is one of my all-time favorite duos - because the father-son relationship doesn't exist on stage, only the teacher-student relationship. Even though both of them were already well-established masters by the time Zakirji was in his 20s. Zakirji is over 70 now and has been at the forefront of fusion classical/jazz/rock music, and his father (RIP) was one of the most innovative players of all time.

      @randomchannel-px6ho 2 года назад +11

      There's nothing wrong with quoting other musicians work and using it as a foundation for something new. In fact a huge part of the jazz tradition which Gershwin is part of is exactly that. And it's not just Jazz, the same thing is the case with the blues, with rock, with western art music, ect.
      It's only in the past few decades that people have started getting pissy about the same sequence of notes that they used being used by someone else, and that's only because people are fucking greedy bastards. There's so much more to music than just a sequence of notes played in a specific rhythm.

    I am so glad to see this posted and transcribed here. T-Square is my absolute favorite jazz act, and Casiopeia is right up there with them. T-Square is so incredibly underrated and little known outside of Japan, and they are, in my personal opinion, the most skilled and talented jazz fusion group to emerge from the scene. Masahiro Andoh (first appears at 0:58) is the Japanese Eddie van Halen and is a phenomenal guitarist; Mitsuri Sutoh (first appears at 0:23) is one of my favorite bassists, and his slap play style is like ear candy; the late Hirotaka Izumi (first appears at 0:45) really was like a modern-day Mozart as his solo would suggest; Takeshi Ito (first appears at 1:05) is a highly underrated saxophonist, EWI player and flautist; and Issei Noro's (first appears at 0:52) unique funky style practically defined the Japanese Fusion movement. This is one of my favorite performances of the two groups, the fun they have while goofing around and trading solos is positively enthralling. Thank you and your assistants for transcribing this moment so beautifully. More people need to know about T-Square and Casiopeia.
