Mario 64 copies piano! Endless Staircase vs Devils Staircase

This is my first video created so go easy on me :P

Basically I was watching clips of the endless staircase glitch and at a similar time was looking at contemporary piano music. I cam across the Devils Staircase played by Anderson and noticed a similarity.

You can't deny it :P even the names are similar (Endless Staircase vs Devils Staircase)

Oh, that's awesome, maybe Koji Kondo was a Ligeti fan?

He may have taken some inspiration from that piece ;-)

The concept of having a single tone or set of tones ascending or descending like the endless staircase does is called, in music theory terms, a Sheppard's Scale or Sheppard's Tone. Look it up, it's quite fascinating actually. It's basically what Legeti was aiming for when he wrote the Staircase.

Never heard of the pianist but very similar indeed. I didn't know about that stairway glitch.
