At the Speed of Light ON PIANO (648 notes per minute!)

- I present my At the Speed of Light piano cover. This was a year and a half in the making, and I'm so happy to finally have a decent recording-I can finally rest my arms.
BIG thanks to the creator of the MIDI file (@ilrell) and the Musescore (@or-what) that I used to learn the piece. Learning this piece would have been impossible without sheet music.
Original song: • Dimrain47 - At the Spe...

I hope you enjoy!

Insane.
YO! Thank you so much
@@khaelkugler Damn congrats bro
Holy, it's the man himself! Now we just need ilrell to show up
It's actually him :0
yo
doing the entire song in one run is like beating aftercatabath
i was gonna say something to you about this being inaccurate but thats actually probably a good comparison
Probably not but ok
@@Emu-Otori- ?
this is harder for sure
Playing this on piano is 5x easier than beating an Extreme Demon lmao
It’s funny how this one song can summon the entire GD community
OMG so true
I Iisten to this everyday
Damn you got me right there
what did you expected?
i have been summoned
"bro I just beat bloodbath"
"what mouse do you have?"
"mouse? I beat it on a piano"
It'd be cool if someone hooked a piano to a PC and played GD
Edit: Thanks chat for telling me
@@ThexburstI wonder how that would work
@@Thexburst It's kinda possible with org keyboard but i think its impossible with the actual piano.
That’s cataclysm
@@AveragePersonGD it’s bloodlust
This is where practice, dedication, and passion gets a person. This is simply inhumane, the idea that someone could play this song this fast and this accurate. My hat goes off to you Mr Kugler
Me too
The comment is nice but this piece is certainly not inhumane and the tempo is extremely handleable even by someone with moderate experience.
Finaly someone who knows its not just talent
@@gencraigz exactly
what bothers me about this is that the tempo is slightly off
@@gencraigz ikr clair de lune blows this out the water but still it's impressive since he does look pretty young
not only did he play the song, he also used pedals to play gd at the same time. absolute mad man
That's how middle pedal works
@@doirit no one told me how the middle pedal works on a grand piano.
@gatio2007CatSad idk my middle pedal makes the notes echo, but not as much as the damper pedal, and after playing on different pianos i guess mine is the only one that does that lol idk
@@gatio2007CatSadi think the middle pedal is like the right pedal, except it only "extends" the notes that you are currently pressing while the pedal gets activated.
@@Qaptylyou are right, but that is only for older pianos. The newer ones do something different but idk what
yknow i like dimrain's music but I didnt think much of this song, but played so masterfully on piano it it hits COMPLETELY different im blown away
Thanks Exyl!! Didn't expect to see you here, I'm glad you liked it. This arrangement was pretty fun to play! Love your work--I've tried to do a little music prod and bro that stuff is difficult.
Didn't expect Exyl to comment there.
Exactly my thoughts man, love ur music btw, we need a collab between u Tem, and Creo
HOLY SHIT EXYL?!?
@@cpt_anthony wait you called it check Exyl's newest video's pinned comment
As a pianist AND a GD player, I can tell this is legendary

This part of the original song is actually played with a piano which is partly why it sounds so good
/\/\/\
2:00 is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard played on a piano!
by far my favorite part of the song, and the part after where it goes electronic (in the original song) makes it so hype
This is gonna be a great replacement song in case of copyright.
But seriously this would've taken forever, I am simply amazed by what you performed.
Huge respect.
Would need some editing to sync, it could work
600th like 🤓
I believe the song don't have copyright tho
@@hellphinjust a little bit of editing the song and it works
Dimrain doesn't copyrght his songs
1:30 was the absolute coolest part in my opinion. I knew what it would sound like but I still got chills from it. Absolutely mesmerizing performance
Agreed
that part is my favorite part lol
@@Creafordfake ending is goated tho
literally buffbath but even more buff
@@Creafordi didnt expect u here lmao
2:22 gave me chills. So relaxing!
the whole sequence from 2:00-2:45 is just done so beautifully its a nice touch compared to the original
It’s easily my favorite part of the song.
It’s an unexpected key change
And the level in the background:💀💀💀
My favorite part had to be from 0:00 - 4:22
At 1:45 you can see how his pinky is the only thing playing the melody, while playing with his other thinkers the 2nd melody and the lower notes with his other hand, respect.
Appreciate you noticing that! It took quite a lot of practice to voice it properly, lol :)
@@khaelkugler yes, I'm trying to learn it and it took me a long time
@@elithelegobrickit’s not too hard with wrist rotation
@@erckupazo it gets consistant after abt 3 months but its VERY hard
The fact he remembered ~2829 notes and can keep the rhythm correct is just insane man
😮😮 it is unbelievable
Not really, your average professional pianist has to memorize thousands of notes for competitions, concerts, etc.
@@claytonsimons3361i once remember 3000 note for school show and i remember all of it
As a pianist myself i can say that for pretty much any song you need to memorise it, and it kind of just goes on almost automatically when you memorised it. Still tho, VERY impressive🤩🤩
This is around high grade 7 or low 8 but it’s damn long
How is this not viral!? Your sooo good! :D
Thanks! Maybe it will be with time lol
@@khaelkugler Dude, you don't need to go viral. The man himself commented on your video. That's the biggest honor you can get!
I mean… If hes gonna become a pianist he needs to play perfect and a piece of this difficulty, while tough is definitely doable. So i hope you stuck with it and will upload a perfect version in the future
@NotNebula Was it? I'd like to see you try. So come on, give us an awe inspiring performance.
@NotNebula my a55 mediocre lmao. Imo the view pointbof him playing just cannot be seen clearly, no one knows about this song and geometry dash video is rare to be seen in RUclips
What
probably harder because in these levels you can make a few tiny mistakes and it won’t count and on piano it can make make the song sound kinda unrecognisable sometimes
@@Lugemaster1202one misclick will have a high chance of crashing in most levels, but one t i n y click out of time will kill you in extreme demons. Meanwhile a tiny mistake on the piano will barely affect the piece.
@@yees_7568say that to a pianist i dare u
@@shelycayetano9854the video even showed that he made tiny mistakes. I still enjoyed it.
making the song harder is the same as making the song
Idk if you read comments or not, but this is absolutely nuts. Since in the music each part is basically a drop and recreating them on piano is literally so hard (finger tiring)
3:28 - 4:02 I get chills hearing this part every time I can feel adrenaline pulsing at this part of the song

Playing this on the piano sounds and feels like you're playing Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement
I actually played that prior to this lol
They both have those annoying arpeggios
@@4klegendaryyt379 true dude its a pain
@@khaelkugler how difficult is this compared to moonlight sonata 3rd movement?
@@georgepetrou501 I'd say musically, moonlight sonata is more difficult, however mechanically ATSOL was far more difficult. As with most techno, ATSOL was relatively similar across the piece, so it didn't require as much thought about dynamics, voicing, etc. But nothing can compare with the speed of ATSOL >:)
Believe it or not, that little screwup at 4:00 worked incredibly well. This is delightful.
hi mythic
lol its mythic
Reminds me of BL 98% death
Correct
yea, it does give that spiky dissonanse before it goes to tonic which sounds good
That is absolutely amazing, I know how hard piano is and I didn't know anything this good is possible. Thanks for the motivation!
Its pretty easy… if i play it on 5 notes per minute

@@danielmsmbl i think he did not only learn it but he actually made the cover. At least its what it says in the description. This guy i absolutely insane
@@cuker5633 I don't think he made the cover, because he credits sheet music that he learned from in the description. Either way he is insane for learning this.
probably takes less time than beating the level 💀
Duuuuuuuude! Nicely done!!! I'm a huge snob when it comes to piano arrangements, but there's VERY little I would have done differently here! It's awesome!
Ya know, straight up beating AfterCataBath may have been easier at that point lol. Anyways, congrats dude. I never thought my score which I uploaded purely for fun, would ever actually played by someone.

Its crazy how in a piano it sounds like an actual classical piece from Mozart's time or sumn. Amazing job bro it sounded incredible
agreed
it doesn't
@@ryzikx🤡🤡🤡(nah Jk people can have their own opinions)
@@ryzikx i mean yeah if you picked it apart with a knowledge of music history i'm sure you'd find loads of red flags that mark it as a completely different time period and style. but i think it's fair to say some of the emotional gravitas and just general ~vibes~ are reminiscent of some of the true classical greats.
this person clearly put an incredible amount of effort and practice into this, but if it was played by a super talented professional pianist, you could totally see it being right at home in a classical concert or recital or something
@@dialog_boxyou don't need much knowledge of music history, it sounds pretty distinct
0:42 this part sounds EXACTLY like the level, this is crazy, and so awesome!
it's actually insane how hard this is, especially keeping tempo
yeah especially considering that its like 4 minutes long
Extreme

at 0:42 i was like damn this sounds realistic, then i realized that part is piano in the original song
yeah but he played it astonishingly lol
I don't know why but I feel so much emotion from 1:57 until 2:49
That part is just sounds beautiful to me.
Same here buddy
In my opinion, this is the best moment in the original song as well
In bloodbath, it was during michigun's part, so its even more emotional for me
It’s the best part of song
Yea literally everyone agrees that the break from the intense music and slow hype up is just insane
This man is 100% so chill and works so hard and takes lots of time to do this thank you
3:27 I think I shed a tear. So beautiful
Absolutely! My favorite part without a doubt!
How could anyone dislike this? I don’t see any other people playing it
not again...
oh no
probably because it was mediocre, no offense
no please. stop. its not funny anymore 😭
@@arksecretwas it? I’d like to see you try. So come on, give us an awe inspiring performance
I’m not sure what’s more difficult at this point. The GD level or just playing at the speed of light itself. Regardless, incredible. Just incredible
def the piano, it takes years upon years, speaking from 7 years of piano and 4 years of GD, this is harder
playing at the speed of light of course, you know how fast that is
@@emmettcahill0918I’ve been playing gd for about 8 years. I don’t think anyone can understand how hard bloodlust is…

2:44 No way that's insane
But its have little bit delay
@@tiankristian9733 wrong grammar it’s but it has a bit delay

that's because the original also had a piano playing in that part
I can listen it for all day. It's perfectly, and I can't describe how I love this cover. I think this absolutly better than original. Thank's for it
I decided to try to learn this song after seing this video, have been working on it for a few weeks and made some progress :)
Good luck
I hope you're able to play it someday!
Damn I thought the comment sections would blow up cuz he had subs and was verified😂
I will watch your career with great interest
0:00 - 4:22 🔥🔥🔥
0:00 to 1:21:65
my ears feel blessed after hearing 1:58-2:46, that part sounds extraordinarily beautiful
all the kids in year 4 are looking up to you. Keep going brother
if you posted this like 2017 you would have been a legend in the gd community known by every single player
I like how easily this could be played as a “sad song” especially the slow parts.
Just replace the major chords with minor chords and slow down a bit and BOOM “slow sad song”
honestly even with the major chords, I can hear it as a sad song a little, and this song is overall a beautifully composed piece.
0:48 the three quick notes are just addicting
Can't we have a moment of appreciation to the guy who is playing the level i mean he is the one to help the pianist know the song afterall
damn! nice!
Это божественно. At the speed of light очень трудное произведение. Говорю как пианист, который смотрел ноты.

Good lord
True. However some people can do 11 clicks per second on one finger and the average human has 10 fingers
It's not mindblowing. Play a chord and you got 4 already. Basic melody on top and you are very close with lot less difficulty.
as a player of this divine instrument for ~7 years, I can confirm this is a masterpiece. I love this song and the piano and all I have to say is incredible job.
How can anyone dislike this? I don't see anyone else actually playing it.
probably because it was mediocre, no offense.
HOW? To be honest I don't know whats harder, the extreme demon or playing the song on piano. Keep up the great work. Insane skill. 😮
Definitely piano, nobody spends years playing every day on a single gd level, spending years playing piano however… there is no reality where a pianist can play this near perfect and doesn’t spend years working on it.
@@limerimer5547 I beg to differ, a good piano player would learn this song faster than a good GD player would beat the level. The piano version isn't as hard as one might think because there aren't a lot of notes being palyed on the same time, they are mostly just played really fast so once you get the flow and feel of the song it's not THAT difficult. But it is pretty difficult.
@@StarClay666 You play piano?
@@limerimer5547 Yeah, not well enough to play this at full speed tho.
I still don't understand how Dimrain47 came up with transition as perfect as it is 1:15-1:40. It is so divine for ears. Thank you for playing this. That section before the next drop feels like you are lost somewhere suddenly, man I just can't grasp it, how he imagined it originally.
I don't know why, but I feel sadness in this song now. I look at GD and those extreme demons with kind of nostalgia now. Only now I knew how much I love this game and this music
1:58 sounds like a song that would be played at a wedding in a film, like the godfather. Amazed no one has picked up this riff
it's actually a very nice coincidence that the 648 in manix648 turns out to be exactly 4*162 and 162 is the bpm of at the speed of light

I can only play the bloodbath ending + aftermath part, but i always dreamed of being able to play the whole song one day. I eventually gave up on it because i think i'm just not good enough with the piano. But this cover was so beautiful, it inspired me.
It might seem a little weird or cringe, but being in the gd community since 2014 and having experienced basically almost all of the games history, i really get emotional whenever i hear this song. It means a lot to me, as well as the game does. It has been with me in my childhood and still is now that im at the end of my teen years (in 2014 i was literally 10 years old)
Thank you for this incredible piece of art!
I hope this piece will inspire you to play the whole song one day. And also hope you have a good adult life in college/university/job/.... I didn't play gd from 2014 so I cannot say anything about it, but I'm glad you have something to stick to since your childhood, it's a really great thing to have!
