The video footage looks like it has been accelerated. Could be an artifact of the camera, or flash video, but possibly means the audio is not what was actually played.

Shoonay 14 August 2009 23:48

Wut?

alexh 14 August 2009 23:51

Watch the motion of her hands and arms, there are lots of "dropped frames" which together with the "sharpness" of the movements, especially the gravity effect on the folds of her trousers as she moves. This is typical of video is which is played back at an accelerated rate.

Like I said, could be a side effect of the camera, or the flash conversion but it has been altered.

Shoonay 14 August 2009 23:53

So what is the tune that sounds exactly like the Star Wars medley but 50% slower that she's playing? ;)

alexh 14 August 2009 23:58

There is no doubt that is what was played, its just the video has been sped up.

Shoonay 15 August 2009 00:16

Nah, I doubt it is fake. I hope...
This was upped a few months before yt introduced HD video and we all know how the converters were back then...
Probably it was recorded in 30FPS or higher framerate, and the reduction to 24fps (as it is now) skipped a few frames so it looks funny here and there.

I mean, I'm no musician but what would be the point of playing it at a different-then-original rate?
Sure, recording music videos in slower rate is (was?) pretty popular, but playing something slower manually would be a bit difficult, no? The tones wouldn't match and all...

alexh 15 August 2009 00:25

Perhaps it is just video conversion. I'm pretty sure the video is slightly sped up. Perhaps the wrong setting in the frame rate conversion. You see it in most of the videos.

Either that or she's wearing the most starched & ironed jeans in history which defy normal motion and gravity :)

Shoonay 15 August 2009 00:30

Those look like white suede pants to me ;)

Kick ass remix!

TCD 15 August 2009 10:15

Oh and let's not forget viddi's version : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaUrgIkI-wo :)

Still prefer the Amiga music.

Of all the remixes, Amiga Immortal etc. my favourite is still the Studio version done for the FM Towns version (and used on the Turbogfx/PC Engine) by Ian Henderson and Chris Howlett of D.C. Productions.

(Use HQ for stereo)

Never knew this music existed until about a year or two ago.

It's got to be her.

Maren 15 August 2009 13:51

Very generic and sort of lifeless, I'm not impressed, but kudos be with the guy for paying tribute to our beloved Beast :)

Love that one, wish he'd make more :agree
Really nice stuff he made.

TCD 15 August 2009 17:12

He already made two new ones : http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=42590 (not sure if you've seen that thread) :) Let's hope he finds some time for it (and Ambermoon Arcade ;)) soon :agree

keropi 15 August 2009 17:12

btw, I dunno about this electone business but, she's playing over something right ? I mean there seems to be a metronome map running behind playing the drums, cymbals for her as well as switching instruments.

Of course, everything's pre-programmed these days ;)
See Electone on wiki :cool
But that doesn't change the fact that you still have to know which buttons to press... ;)
