Although I already did Paul-Marie's version of this, I figured an arrangement closer to the original style would also sound cool. Let me know what you think :)

Fun fact: The film heavily draws inspiration from ancient Incan culture. Just one example...Kuzco was likely named after the Peruvian city Cusco, which is considered the Incan capital of Peru.

This track just released on Hexagon a couple of weeks ago and whoo boy, if you're into jazzy EDM, it's a treat!

Paul-Marie Barbier finally released the full version of his Midnight cover that was teased in that Caravan Palace chill mix last July...here's hoping that there are many more to come! Imagine a one hour playlist of Caravan Palace chill piano from PMB...

This song made me cry when I was seven years old...and occasionally still does...so figured that counted for something! If you're nostalgic about this film as I am, I'm sure you relate.

Should've done this one years ago given that the show's probably not trending anymore, but it's a pretty song, so better late than never! Also, apologies for the mix up of some note colours in the vocal/piano part of the video...Embers seemed to glitch out a bit with it for some reason.

Apologies for the delay in upload, but hopefully this one was worth the wait ;)

Another of my favorite lesser known gems from Caravan Palace!

f you've seen the Sonic movie, you may recognize this cover of Green Hill Zone, as a short part of it was played towards the end of the film. The track however wasn't originally made for the movie...meaning there's a full version you may not have heard! Enjoy.

This one turned out wayyy better on piano than I already thought it would! Let me know if you want more tutorials of Flamingosis or other similar artists (Yung Bae, Birocratic, etc)

Dream - alternatively known as Dream (When You're Feeling Blue) - is a jazz standard originally written by Johnny Mercer in 1944. My favorite version of it however is the Pied Piper's cover, which is quite mesmerizing imo! You may have heard this in Bioshock btw, which featured many vintage jazz tunes.

Recently, Disney released the extended version of the Tron Legacy soundtrack digitally, which had originally only been available on Vinyl and a few other places. Personally Legacy is one of my all time favorite films...as much as critics would disagree! The score, the epic story, and to this day I've never seen a film that looks anything...

I thought the title for this one was fitting for the new year, so yeah, happy new year!

Pixar's latest is out now - what do you think of it? Here's the film's credits theme, Jon Batiste's piano/vocal cover of 'It's All Right', originally by Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions.

I was just about to finish my own arrangement of this song when Paul-Marie released his version last week, which of course I had to transcribe also...oh well, stay tuned for my version in a couple of weeks!

My mum of all people discovered this track last month and it's become one of my favorite songs of the year! If you like Caravan Palace, definitely check these guys out! They also have a very sophisticated/melodic French flair to their music which I love!

I do miss this jazzier 90s style of R&B. Sounds great on piano! (For those wondering, yes, I am religious, but I chose to do this one cause of how jazzy and soulful it sounds, so hope you enjoy regardless of your beliefs!)

Another popular tune from CP that I figured I should make a tutorial for...a jazzy take on Ram Jam's 'Black Betty'.

Bossa Nova is one of those genres where you think "how did I not know about this gold mine of music?!" the first time you hear it. And it never gets old. Let me know if you want more of it on this channel!
First heard this when Odd Chap did a remix of it - what a tune!

Here's a tutorial for a lesser known gem/personal favorite from Caravan Palace. I'm not sure if it's named after the city I live in, but I'd like to think so :) You may also notice the updated visuals in this video - I've just changed from Synthesia to a new program called 'Embers' which is being developed by LyricWulf. I've ...

I hadn't seen any arrangements for this track on YouTube that could be played by a single pianist, so decided to make my own. Still not easy, but playable!

Another popular CP song I was surprised to find no piano tutorial on yet! Also sort of doubles as a tutorial for 'It Ain't Right' by Stuff Smith, given that it is heavily sampled in this.

Going through some of Caravan Palace's older material for some tutorials...if you like this one, stay tuned for next week's!

I've had some people request that I do a tutorial for Secret (my own song), which of course was very easy for me to make, given all I had to do was copy and paste the MIDI from my original project file and make sure it's playable. Enjoy!

Apologies for the delay this week! Paul-Marie Barbier is showing no signs of slowing down with his piano covers, and I'll continue to be transcribing each and every one of them!

The short and sweet ragtime tune from the modern Mickey Mouse Cartoon series that started back in 2013. If you haven't seen it, definitely give it a watch - it's up on YouTube and is worth every second of your time, trust me ;)

I know this is probably impossible to play unless you're Peter Bence, but I wanted to make it as accurate as possible so hope you enjoy :)

Don Diablo just released an acoustic version of his melancholic yet uplifting song 'Thousand Faces', which heavily features piano, so figured as he's probably my favorite producer/DJ that I should make a tutorial. Enjoy!
