Download the high quality MP3 for free at http://www.CryonautMusic.com This is an extended tribute to one of my favourite tunes ever - ROYGBIV by Boards of Canada. I absolutely love BOC's piece, but always hated that it was so short. I thought it might be a nice little project to create an extended arrangement so that this beautiful composition didn't have to end so soon. I tried to stay faithful to the mood of the original while still expanding on the melodies a bit more. This was composed, recorded and edited entirely on a MacBook Pro using Logic Studio - no samples, just great virtual synths and beats. Hope you like it!

  • Notes are wrong in Bocuma, but I like it.

  • @sniperzero1 Actually, the change in the Bocuma melody to a major scale was intentional to fit with the accompanying bass line that later re-occurs in the Roygbiv bridge. Guess I was stretching my artistic license. Glad you like it anyway :)

  • So what about the MP3? ;-)

  • I like this a lot. I was born a little late to feel the full effect of this album (namely the nostalgia), yet this version feels sort of updated, with a slightly more modern feel that is closer to the sounds of my childhood.

  • i know this is a good cover cause i get that feeling of sad desperation as i realize it is about to end!

  • Great Cover! Love how the melodies of the two songs float together at the beginning!

  • Lovely! This is really good. Have you heard the BoC "Alphaquest" remix of ROYGBIV? It also combines Bocuma, like what you've done, as well as a very brief vocal bridge about midway through the latter song.

  • @Room6studios Does it really matter what was used?

  • @Room6studios hahaha! your naughty!
