Animorphs TV Theme on Piano
« on: February 02, 2011, 09:16:15 PM »
Hey everyone!

Have been teaching myself piano for just over a year now and recently taught myself the Animorphs TV theme by ear. For those of you who play I'm hoping to upload a midi or sheets soonish but with my return to uni rushing up I'm not sure when that will be. Enjoy!

Thanks everyone! I just love the theme song... my keyboard actually sits next to my computer, since most of the time I learn from midis. But now whenever I'm waiting for a page to load or whatever I'll turn to the keyboard and just start at the chorus. Haha. It does get stuck in your head.

This is great.  I'd love to see a score when you have time (I could probably transcribe it myself but eh, too lazy).  It'd sound cool with the bass line rhythms added too, or maybe even vocals?   ;)

Having been treated to Ben's musical talents in person, and being able to read music better than he can, maybe I could give scoring it a shot? Provided you're willing to play it slowly for me?

But it's been a while since I tried anything like that.

I know the notes but just need to put them in some sort of coherent, legible transcription. I have tried writing the sheets but the problem I'm having is timing/rhythm. I'm working on it though. At this stage I'll probably just record a midi and then use software to transcribe it. Will post it here first when it's done. =)

I've been able to record the midi, can't transcribe it very well so I'll leave that to someone else. Other problem I'm having is uploading... the only thing I really know how to use is Megaupload but for whatever reason that didn't work. Any suggestions?

Sendspace usually works for me.
