I received a commission request back in December 2022, and the commissioner offered me a number of songs to choose from. They included some unrealistic options... including a full cover of Tarkus, which is only one of my favorite songs of all time and a significant inspiration for Ayerora, my concept album. So I had to do it. This is a complete, highly accurate cover of all 20 minutes and 7 movements of Tarkus by ELP. By far the most difficult and time-consuming cover I've ever made. I hope you enjoy!
0:00 Eruption
2:41 Stones of Years
6:25 Iconoclast
7:41 Mass

I remember one day my dad was playing some ELP on a road trip. First time I remember hearing them. It might have been Tocatta or Trilogy, maybe something else. All I know is it instantly put visions of PS1 Final Fantasy in my head, FF9 especially. I found out later that Uematsu really is heavily inspired by ELP but it really clicked for me there in the car on that road trip. I don't know if I ever showed my dad any comparisons between the two, but I'm definitely showing him this!
Hi, other chiptuner that's fan of prog here, you did excellent with such an ambitious cover
Not every day I see an Emerson, Lake & Palmer Famitracker cover!
This sounds SO good in your style!
Well, another phenomenal undertaking from you! I wasn't familiar with the source material (I checked it after), and what a rendition!
A true wizard of the chiptunes for sure!
anyway,
having now looped this a couple dozen times, i think i can say that this is for sure in the top 2 of tarkus covers. might even be number one due to how accurately you translated the original into chipped tunes
bravo, isabelle!
Eruption sounds so much like a boss track. Stones of Years sounds like a level theme. Like something you might hear in an old SHMUP; you can definitely tell what inspired all of those old composers. The whole thing sounds especially Sunsoft, what a nice little surprise. Prog isn't really my thing, so I'd never really listened to this song, much less listened to it like this.
Great job on this!
Oh yes. Oh, yes yes yes. Yes. Yes!
Wait, no.
ELP!!!
never though id hear a chiptune cover of my favorate long song i only knew this song from jojo but now i can be happy knowing its a chiptune now
Best dancing mad 8 bit cover ive heard, JK love this track and this is a magnificent rendition of it
Isabelle, your covers really rocked. also, I loved you and NeonLuigi's cover of Sonic Mania - Studiopolis Zone Act 1. like, you did fantastic on it.
Keep up the good work,
Aqeel :)
THE WHOLE FUCKING SONG I AM CRYING THIS IS AMAZING😭😭😭
Absolutely amazing!! Tarkus and The Court Of The Crimson King were my introductions to Prog rock and ELP especially was absolutely mind blowing to me, with Keith Emerson being a major inspiration to me. So either way, an absolutely fucking fantastic cover!!!!!
holy hell... standing ovation for this, absurdly ambitious and beautifully done
Holy moly. I hope you are eating well tonight!
youre insane for this yet this is why we love you
awesome cover !!!
you have no idea how much I love this thank you so much for this !!!!
As a long time ELP fan this rules so much! I started covering this one on LSDJ for its 50 year anniversary but the three channel limit was too much for a piece like this (plus it's really long and complex hahshshs) so I quickly gave up. VCR6 sounds like a much better medium for it, much respect for having covered the full thing!
Thats awesome tho that u tried! Yea LSDJ would be a true challenge. VRC6 felt like a great choice for the complexity and detail. But there’s a really good cover of Eruption in 2A03 on CZcams, by Teuthida so you should check that out!!!
@@IsabelleChiming Just did, god damn that was good!
Holy shit, those vocals
This is absolutely wonderful! Excellent job
okay I've never heard of this before, now I gotta check out the original before I can appreciate this
EDIT: If this was sold back in the day, people would call it a "music album with a free game attached", because while the original is great, this just SINGS.
Thank you so much for this
LET'S FUCKING GO!!!
La locura máxima. 10/10 ❤
HELL YEAH!!! Iconic
Hoooly 💕💕
This is unbelievable wow
Thank you sm!!
Fuck yeah.
This is how Nemesis II sounds in my head.
THIS IS INSANE!
