[zomgSEAN]

NICE MAN!

[wingedsaberer]

Shit. You did bubblegloop swamp. The song I thought impossible to play. *faints*

10/10

[BenskyBen]

That's the reason it was screwed up lol.

I can probably play it better if I sat down and practised it though : )

[Riotx761]

two stupid dogs audio nice, i quote that all the time "well isnt that cute...but its WRONG" haha

[BenskyBen]

You know it!

Love that show.

[Riotx761]

i like this!

[phatato1]

could you make another vidio like this but a view where we can see which keys you press or a tutorial?

[church7089]

OMG FAST. Unnecessary, but it sounds cool. Sorry to say I like the original pieces better when I like so much of your work, but the "voice" used and the speed make it worse. Still quite good and your still very skilled.

[chaserman2034]

you went to fast mother fucker

[BenskyBen]

Read the other comments.

I know it's too fast.

Now go watch my 'How Fast Can You Play' video and tell me that's too fast :P

[chaserman2034]

no that one is better bitch

[BenskyBen]

That's why I told you to watch it.

[chaserman2034]

sorry i said those things about you. this was kinda good. i'll give 4 stars

[01jordanl]

yo ben i absolouteley love this game when n64s came out this eas the first game i got and i still play nearlly everyday lol =) i love your music too =)

[BenskyBen]

Aweome xD

It's my fav game for N64 too! + my first!

[spazboy1234567]

that was sexy lol

[BenskyBen]

Lol, thanks.

[oaklandbanjo]

sorry if this is kind a afenceive but your off a tad

[BenskyBen]

I know >_>

[CurtainGuy]

Hey sorry I took so long to approve the video response, didn't see it for awhile. This is pretty rad! Maybe you should separate it into a few videos so you could slow down a bit and use different instruments that fit the song better. Also you should get a pedal attachment for the keyboard if you don't have one already, I couldn't tell. You're ridiculously good though, great stuff.

[BenskyBen]

Thanks!

Yeah I need to get a pedal for it aye lol.

And yeah I need to make seperate videos (I've done this for some of the songs in this piece)

Cheers heaps =)

[Whogopenguin]

It's really nice, a shame it was speeded up though =(

[BenskyBen]

You mean at the descending chromatics?

I just thought that it would stretch out for too long if I kept it as I did as original.

Or,

Do you mean for the duration of the video? If so, that's because I played it all from memory, and hadn't listened to any of the tracks for a long, long time (probably since I last played the game/s lol).

Thanks for the kind words in any case =)

[Ian223344]

Your videos made me want to break out my N64 but I couldn't find the cartidges D:

[BenskyBen]

You what? D:

You gotta find em aye lol

Or you can buy them really cheap on ebay or something.

[Whogopenguin]

You can also get the games for the computer on an emulator such as Project64.

BK is now avaliable on Xbox Live, too, and BT is coming.

[TheRealBanjo2]

I don't have one, so i want one =3

[BenskyBen]

Want one what lol

[TheRealBanjo2]

Piano = Shaking = EPIC!

[BenskyBen]

You know it xD

[mikahakk16]

cool..=D...speed..

[BenskyBen]

Lol I hear ya

[BAGOMS]

benky i was just teaching myself this song and hot to be as good as you :D

[BenskyBen]

Thanks for your kind words =)

Practise makes perfect - And I'm not close lol.

[royalrocker311]

You have some mad skillz on keyboard!

I was wondering, how did you learn the songs? Do you have any CD's of the game music or anything like that?

[BenskyBen]

Nope, I learnt them by ear from what I could remember from all those years ago when I first played Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie.

I have listened to some of them by playing the games more recently, and have been working on newer versions of some of the songs in this video =)

[royalrocker311]

Ohh, alright. I've been playing songs on the piano from the BK games as well, such as the Grunty's Lair theme, Treasure Trove Cove, Hailfire Peaks, Isle O' Hags, Freezeezy Peak, and Bubblegloop Swamp. I just have bits and pieces down though. It's fun stuff. :]

[BenskyBen]

Oh nice - yeah, the songs from BK/BT are really good - can't for BK: NaB to come out

[Sandbag209]

What key is Treasure Trove Cove in?

[BenskyBen]

I played it in C major - I think that's the key that the game has it in, too.

[3sp3nK]

Awesome! Can you please made some tutorials? Specially song 2, 5 and 6.

[BenskyBen]

Sure thing!

I have a few requests for videos that I'll be making first, but I'll definatelly do a MMM and TTC tutorial. I won't be doing a BGS tutorial as I don't think I played it that well. Give it some time, I might get it up and running in a few months =)

[stangsO9]

That was so awesome! The best one was Jinjo Village and Treasure Trove Cove, I would love to play those. BTW awesome job your great!

[BenskyBen]

Cheers buddy =)

I've made a Treasure Trove Cove video (by itself), and I'm about to post a Jinjo Village (ravesque) video soon =)

Subscribe to know when [if youhaven't already]

[budwayz]

y did u speed it up at 1:30-1:35 ish?

[BenskyBen]

I just didn't like the original way that it was played - plus, by speeding it up, it kills a few seconds off the video, while still keeping what I wanted in there =)

[budwayz]

oh ok thats cool

[gsefiaowehgsdkare]

lol i know but my replie thing fked up so i just replied to any vid rofl gj (gj=Good job)

[BenskyBen]

Ahk

Yep I know what gj means =P

Also - Thanks =)

[gsefiaowehgsdkare]

Rofl rusty bucket bay is weird

[BenskyBen]

Haha, in my eyes they're all weird =P

Check out the video response to this video that is played on a piano (not keyboard) - It's me playing Rusty Bucket Bay, but after I actually sat down and listened to it =)

Hope that's betterfor you =P

[BenskyBen]

Hang on - I don't even play Rusty Bucket Bay in this video =|

[gsefiaowehgsdkare]

thats awesome XD

[VivaLaJonah]

tooooooooo fast!!!!!!

[chaospisser]

great job, but too fast

[BenskyBen]

thanks, yeah looking back on it i see it as too fast too

[gizzardwizzard29]

Did you learn this by ear, or did you find sheet music for this? If you did find the music, where did you get it?

[BenskyBen]

I learnt it by ear sorry.

An easy way to learn by ear is just get the song you want to learn on an mp3 (I used my creative - zen vision m) and make sure that's the only song you listen to for about a week. As time goes on, you'll be able to learn by ear in about 10 minutes (if you know the song really well from radio etc).

I'm going to be posting Treasure Trove Cove pretty soon - subscribe to know when :)

[BenskyBen]

I've uploaded the Treasure Trove Cove video, and will be posting another full length theme from another world (possible Mad Monster Mansion or Rusty Bucket Bay).

I'll probably do that towards the end of November though (I have to finish year 12 before comcerntrating too hard on videos) =)

[GTAtomten]

your awesome, but you play it way too fast

[BenskyBen]

haha thanks

yeah i know it's faster, but i hadn't heard the songs in a while.

i'm thinking of making another video but after i've listened to them heaps. Except that will probably be in late november this year, i'm currently studying for my last exams for year 12

subscribe to know when i uploading it =)

[BenskyBen]

*when i upload it

[googletoper]

i've never herd this song and beat the bajo tooie game...

[BenskyBen]

which bit haven't you heard?

Check the desc. it the song names and times that I played them at.

This isn't just Banjo-Tooie, it's also Banjo-Kazooie, so if you haven't played Kazooie (which you should have, it's the first game), I highly recommend it =)

[Bamshu]

So very awesome.

[Sowhattt]

wow.

haha love it!

[iamsumguyxdxp]

haha cool!!

[Arrroza]

Very cool! 5/5
