I decided to take the very cool Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites by Skrillex and reproduce it as if Rachmaninoff played it. I embellished a few rhythms to keep it more interesting. This was a blast! I hope you like it.

There are a few mistakes, but I figured I'd leave them since it's a live version and to show the difficulty of it. I didn't want to fix it in midi and be a cheater ;)

If you like this be sure to check out my other music and videos on my Youtube channel or visit my website at AaronIsles.com.

If I get enough interest I can post my transcription of the song. It's got the precise rhythms of the original that I didn't quite follow :) It's a 4 page lead sheet .pdf file.

As always, thanks for listening. I know you have an infinite amount of choice on the internet and I am glad you chose to listen to my music :)

    Hey @Juliapalaian. Glad you like it! I didn't put the sheet music up anywhere for people to download, but if you shoot me a private message I'll send it over :)

    Fair statement. I figured writing 'classical' would be a more interesting title than writing "Late Romantic Era Style Dubstep" :) I'm pretty sure most people think of candles when they read romantic instead of a period of art and musical creation.

    Best cover so far. It's not a true cover without the drops and these were done really well.
