Children of Bodom Orchestral Medley. In Loving Memory of Alexi Laiho

  • I strongly recommend using good headphones/speakers to listen to this.
    I started this project on January 2022 and it was finished on December 19th.
    It took me 12 months and more than 1000 hours. I worked on this almost every day of the year. Some days I rested, some other days were up to 8 hours.
    I made this from scratch with the most basic knowledge and learning on the go, but also I made this with the purest form of passion. I only knew there were things called VST's and MIDI files, and you can do incredible things with them.
    For more than... I don't know... around 15 years I've been waiting for something like this to be done, but although there are some children of bodom orchestral tributes here on youtube, for me they are not as epic and big as they could be. Don't get me wrong! They are great and I really liked them! But I wanted a HUGE orchestral sound.
    So after the first anniversary of Alexi's death I thought I had a whole year to work on this to be published on the second anniversary. And after countless times wanting to give up and thinking this was too much for me, I did it, and I am incredibly proud for it.
    So I hope you like it and I hope you can enjoy it at least as half as I enjoyed making it.
    I would love if you share this project with the people that can appreciate it.
    Thank you!

    Alexi was a master. Imagine if they did a consert with Nightwish... Nightwish and COB were among the first metal bands I listened as a teenager. For that I'm grateful.

      Don't forget Wintersun, friggin epic Finnish metal. But to your comment i think NW is already this epic orchestral level. And it's real orchestra.

      I was waiting way too long for this comment. You only missed In The Shadows from Something Wild album. It's one song not three. Good job Sir, you deserve a cookie. The last one right after the "drums solo" is half of the melody of Everytime I Die and the very last girl singing is the beginning of Kissing The Shadows chorus melody.

    I mean, metal has the most in common with classical out of all styles, then you add that Alexi was classically trained, this video just shows how deep the connection Alexi made it to classical since it just feels right to hear this. Very well done!
    I would love to see a concert live that is an orchestra playing Children of Bodom songs or albums straight off, would be so epic.

    • @jani14jani
      @jani14jani Před měsícem +1

      His classical training shines trough in his music very clearly. If you ever analyze the music he wrote you notice it very fast.
      Alexis music was a combination of his classical training, attitude and pure passion.

    Chills and tears. Alexi was the most profound and genius artist I have ever had the privilege of hearing. When I'd be drinking alone I'd always feel one with COB and their music and understand certain parts of Alexi's life that he faced and never backed down including alcohol itself. He wrote literally about his own demise and told it exactly like it was with no stall or fear. I heard I Hurt the other day at the gym and having turned 33 today I can feel some of the cruel pieces of aging and some things that are damaged beyond repair. What Mozart and Beethoven and bach did for classical music and music as a whole is what Alexi did for me and my life. He deserved nothing less than to be honored in such a way because to me he walked with the greatest of all time. Thank you for this composition.
