Just Passing Time on a (Super Fun) beat!

Hey there guys!

This video was inspired by one of my long time favourite YouTube musicians, Ronald Jenkees. I am absolutely in love with his song "Super-Fun" and I decided to cover it.

HOWEVER

When I was trying to recreate his beat on my computer, I sort of started fooling around and came up with my own super-fun beat! I did, however, opt to keep the chords from Super-Fun. Not that the chords are strikingly original, it's just that they ARE super fun!

Forgive my lame moves :) I know it's geeky but I'm a total geek for music!

I designed that biting, nasty, dirty, crunchy, driving lead sound from a mere sine wave myself, and I really like it.

Hope you guys enjoy yourselves!

Heal The World - A Piano Tribute to Michael Jackson

Recent news of the legendary popstar's passing has moved me. I remember music lessons at my first school - in the music room there was this big poster of Michael's and I always wondered who it was...

Anyway, I'm rambling.

Heal The World has always been one of my favourite songs by Michael Jackson. I've performed it with a couple of choirs before and it seems only natural that my modest tribute to the man comes in this form. I hope I've been able to do justice to such a great work.

Hope you like it!

God, It's Been Long.

Dear readers,

I sincerely apologize for not writing a single post in nearly half a year. In the run up to my exams and subsequently, I really haven't been able to write a single damn thing. I hope you'll forgive me.

In any case, I've redesigned the website, check it out: www.AdvaitSarkar.com

And I'm also planning a couple of new videos for YouTube!

More content coming soon, hang in there, guys!

Hallelujah Featured! Crush/Canon Medley shaping up to be a stellar success!

Hey guys!

I just wanted to let you know that as of right now, my Hallelujah video is the #1 featured video on YouTube India! How cool is that?

Another great thing that's happened is the broadcast of my Crush (Archuleta) and Canon Rock Medley! It's not even been a day, but it's gotten a TON of views and the following #1 honours:

#1 - Most Discussed (Today) - India
#1 - Top Favorited (Today) - India
#1 - Top Rated (Today) - India
#1 - Top Rated (This Week) - India

Which is really really cool! Heres the vid:


Enjoy!
Here's the video description:

"Hey there guys! I have a special treat for you here, and it took me 5 tedious hours to make, so please reward me with a few comments and ratings, if not subscriptions! =)

There are TOO MANY covers of Canon Rock out there. So I thought,
"Well, why not make a Canon POP"?

I idolize David Archuleta, simply because he's my age, and at my age, he's managed to follow his dream and become successful at it. I would love to meet him someday, maybe talk about music and stuff, but until that day comes, let me content myself with covering his music!

I thought that maybe I could fuse these two songs together. I tried it through on the piano, and it sounded great! So that's how I ended up making this video. I couldn't resist orchestrating it a bit, thus the heavy pop arrangement. 99% of this video was improv, so please don't ask for sheet music!

I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoyed making it! If you did, show your appreciation by rating, commenting, subscribing, yadayadayada...

P.S. If you're David Archuleta then for the love of God contact me! (AdvaitMusic@gmail.com)
If you're Johann Pachelbel then you're probably dead!
