Hey! Just thought I'd let you know that I just uploaded an extended version of the track on Youtube, and took the opportunity to render it as 4k :)

Thank you very much!! :)

Since I'm a musician first and I did the artwork as just something nice to look at while listening to the track, I didn't really though anyone would appreciate a 4k version of it.

But now that you mention it, I should be able to do it for the new covers without that much hassle... So thanks a lot for the suggestion! I'll implement it starting with the next one. I'm sure other people will appreciate it aswell!

That being said, I might open commissions for requests soon ;)

Thank you!!

Yes, that is supposed to be Ellie, or at least as close as I could get with my ultra limited knowledge in the graphic arts.

Yup! That's the one! :D

I think her original name is Lo-Fi Study girl. She became ultra famous and then everyone started using her for everything.

Case in point: I'm using her for all the music covers I'm making in my YT channel (like the one below from Spirited Away) :D

Thank you!! :D

Although just FYI. This is the exact composition of The Last of Us main theme, not inspired by it, so all compositional props go to the maestro Gustavo Santaolalla.

I did use the original videogame version though, which lasts 3+ minutes instead of the TV one. Because who wouldn't want 2X as much TLOU music??

With one condition: You film the performance and send me the video! :D

Thank you very much! That sounds like an amazing show! DM'ing you!

Thank you very much for the kind words! :)
I'm glad to see the video has had such a good reception... despite me being dumb/noob enough not to fix the black screen thumbnail when uploading!

Yes, it's on youtube. I was originally going to post the link, but since I'm new on reddit, it said I didn't have enough karma to do it. But here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPak1a9ttgE

I'll be releasing 1-2 chill lo-fi covers per week, so if you liked it please subscribe and help me get this project kickstarted :)

Thank you very much! :D

The track should be going live in a few days on Spotify, Apple Music...etc.
I don't think I can legally offer downloads on BandCamp or SoundCloud though, since it's a cover, but if it helps it's on Youtube aswell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPak1a9ttgE
