One of my favorite DK64 tunes (who am I kidding, they're all my favorite) to cover for the month of October. While not exactly spooky, I knew this track would fit the vibe with its melancholy and creepy aesthetic from the level. I remember trekking through this level as a kid and remembering how dark it always felt. I tried emulating that feel in the video with the lighting, which was challenging on its own. I also really got the chance to show off the double bass, which I'm glad to have my hands on, even if only temporarily. For a Grant Kirkhope track, I couldn't settle for anything less. I also got the chance to track the upper strings in stereo and through different equipment at a different studio, which I can say was a game-changer at the very least. While this video was several weeks of constant planning and recording/producing, I'm actually gonna miss the process of making the very track that I've wanted to do for the longest time.
