Quick Note To All "Mega Bears."

So this tier has been in the process of getting removed for a couple months now. I wanted to give any of you who were signed up for it a chance to switch to a lower tier, as I had merged the benefits. Unfortunately, 3 of you were still signed up for this tier and it has since been removed.

If you have lost access and already paid for this month, please message me. I will give you access to the website for November so you don't lose access to the music!

Just for Fun! Happy Halloween!

I know, I'm a little late! I only just remember it was hallowen aroundf 11:30 and I was like, huh, I should put up SOMETHING. So here's a super quick arrangement of the spooky ghost song "Have You Seen The Ghost Of John?" I only had like 40 minutes to work on it so it's not SUPER amazing, but it's kinda fun to play. :)

An update and some small arrangements

Howdy all! Hope you guys are doing well and PRAC-TI-CING! hehe

So it's been a little slow as far as new updates as I'm trying to get the archive uploaded on kabukibear.com. It's extremely time consuming; I have to do them one by one, make mp3's for the player, etc. I've made some great progress but, for completion's sake, I have a few beginner/easy tabs that I haven't uploaded, so I figured now would be as good a time as any.

So if you haven't, check out kabukibear.com and sign in with your patreon info and it will unlock the site for you. As far as a few of the easy versions uploaded we have...

Castle Cornelia from Final Fantasy I: https://kabukibear.com/tab/116
Lucca's Theme from Chrono Trigger: https://kabukibear.com/tab/115
Magus' Castle from Chrono Trigger: https://kabukibear.com/tab/114
Manoria Cathedral from Chrono Trigger: https://kabukibear.com/tab/113
Melody of Lute from Final Fantasy IV: https://kabukibear.com/tab/112
The Day the World Revived from Chrono Trigger: https://kabukibear.com/tab/111
Requiem from Final Fantasy V: https://kabukibear.com/tab/110

Also, as I move this music over I am editing them, sometimes a little, sometimes quite a bit. For example I changed the intro to Wind Scene from Chrono Trigger. I was never happy with it and now that I have a little time, I changed it to sound closer to the original. Get that here: https://kabukibear.com/tab/109

Anyway, I'm still chugging along. I'm at the letter "F" in my arrangements but since I've finished the Final Fantasy series, it should move a little faster.

That's all for now! Stay well, and happy strumming!

Largo from Handel's "Xerxes"

Staying with the classical, here's my arrangement of the famous "Largo," by George Fredric Handel. The piece is the opening aria of the opera, and has Xerxes I of Persia, singing about how lovely and comfortable the shade of a plane tree is. So I wanted the artwork created in Midjourney to reflect that. Took a lot of tinkering, but I like the result of both the arrangement and the artwork. It's simple, but I felt like there was some beauty in that simplicity.

A Post About Thumbnail Art

I'm not sure if anyone out there is interested about this aspect of the videos, but the artwork on the newest videos are all being done by AI. I'm sure most of you have heard about the explosion of AI art in the past few months, and the public has been given access to very fun and powerful tools to bring your ideas to life!

Since half the fun of making these videos is coming up with the thumbnail, this is just a fun post showing the process of creating the thumbnail for the most recent video I've made, that hasn't been uploaded yet. I wrote a little something explaining the pics, if you're interested.

And if this interests you at all, make sure you're on the discord. I have the bot in a channel there and you can mess around with it for free and make your own art.
