Skatune Sunday – Giant Woman (Steven Universe) SKA COVER
https://youtu.be/vwXBfcofGf4?si=22XEnnrG9y02j5r1
First, this is another cartoon I keep meaning to watch but haven’t yet. This song reminded me that I need to get Steven Universe on my watch list.
Second, there’s a great fake out about halfway through the song.
Finally, here’s the original song:
Skatune Sunday – Death Of The Heart By JER
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lG1Z-35w2BV_kPFputYFfi5PM0qV-pW-Y&si=bhnu_SBe2VCX-5o0
JER, the creative mind behind Skatune Network, has released their second album, Death of the Heart. I enjoyed their first release, Bothered/Unbothered, and I expect to love this one even more. JER’s messages of decolonization and anti-capitalism are just as present, if not more so, in this album. I’ll be listening to it while I work (the irony is not lost on me), and I’m looking forward to it.

I can always depend on Skatune Network dropping a killer ska cover of video game music which makes me want to play the game. This is no exception.

https://youtu.be/abbik3PZgNg?si=8pOisqSjFzz_Q7Y5
Skatune Network says that this cover works incredibly well, and I have to agree. When I heard their version of this song, I had to go back to the original to remind myself of how it sounded.

This is a great laid back arrangement with Skatune on flugelhorn, but what surprised me was how melodic his arrangement is compared to the original.
