Welcome to The Bear's Den

Hey all! Welcome to my site. It's been a long time in coming, but your buddy Kabukibear is BACK and looking to start arranging and releasing tons of great new guitar music for you to play. Expect brand new arrangements not found anywhere else, access to an arrangement archive of past pieces, and interact with me as I create for you!

To view all the posts and tabs, head on over to my patreon and once you sign in with your patreon info, the entire site will be open for you to browse. If you're not ready to take the plunge, that's okay! There will be a number of free tabs that will cycle periodically. But we hope you'll join us soon!

My dream is to get as many people to fall in love with the acoustic guitar as I can as well as to showcase some beautiful music from a wide range of composers. I hope you'll find a home here! Stay well, and happy strumming!

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!

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

October 24th 2022 at 11:16 PM

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"

October 16th 2022 at 9:25 PM

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.

...
So the piece I've arranged is most known as "Largo," from Handel's Xerxes. It also goes by the name "Ombra mai fu."
...
It's an aria sung by King Xerxes I, about how beautiful and lovely the shade of a plane tree was, so I started there.
...
Changed styles, but can't tell it's Xerxes. Looks like any biblical dude with a beard at this point.
...
and the bottom right...very cool, but I wasn't sure anyone could really tell what was going on here.
...
Adjusting the style on the bottom right led to a pretty painting of a tree, but naah, plus, again, we don't have a clue who that is there.
...
One more attempt and the AI basically gave up on Xerxes entirely and just wanted to paint a pretty landscape...
...
Variations on the bottom right led to an interesting idea
...
Upscaling made it look interesting...but it wasn't what I was after. It looked far too dream sequencey or like he's having visions.
...
I also ran some variations on the top right but it started losing the idea of what I was going for and really warping the trees.
...
REROLL of the original prompts. The top left was a cool angle for a picture, but I focused on the bottom left
...
Detailed, bit of a weird looking tree...
...
Variations, not liking the barren landscape with the isolated tree and shadow.
...
I decided I was going up the wrong alley. Yes, the tree is what Xerxes is singing about, but the scene is introducing Xerxes, HIMSELF.
...
Tried focusing more on Xerxes and I was immediately drawn to the style of the top left.
...
I really like this art, it is soft, subdued, and peaceful, and Xerxes himself looks at ease.
...
Top right added detail but Xerxes looks like a monster of some sort and I can't imagine that tree would produce a whole lot of shade...
...
tried a remaster and the backgrounds look lovely but it looks like a freakish Xerxes is photobombing the frame...mooving on
...
Got some better results with the next one, definitely looks more Persian. Not quite sure why Xerxes has flowers in his crown now.
...
Tweaking it got me here, but the black eyes ruined an otherwise good depiction, if a bit too simplistic for my tastes.
...
Not sure what the AI was going for here. The composition of it is very Chinese but I don't know what's going on with poor old Xerxes...
...
...ehhhmm...no thanks MJ
...
I don't know if they wore man-buns in Persia back then but his eyes ruined it for me anyway.
...
I think I got the wolfman in the top left there...
...
Well, it's not bad! He looks very regal and the clothing is, to my untrained eyes, at least, appearing appropriate.
...
Eh, he started looking like your generic "King," from anywhere...so I tried more experimenting...
...
Which led to some DISASTEROUS results XD
...
Oh okay, that one in the top left looks very interesting. The bottom left one as well.
...
he doesn't look particularly peaceful under that tree and it almost looks like he has an eyepartch...would be a cool illustration in a book.
...
The top left one got me this but I'm not sure if that's an eyepatch or a shadow, but I wanted to try and remove it and get it softer
...
I settled on this one. I think it's a nice representation of a younger Xerxes I having a quiet repose in the shade of a plane tree.

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.
