@InstrumentManiac OK WHAT I HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOU FOR 1 YEAR CONTINOUSLY BUT I HAVE NEVER SEEN YOU PLAY STYLOPHONE. You are truly an instrumental maniac (I play stylophone, bass clarinet, clarinet, alto clarinet, piano and might start learning contrabass clarinet (Mainly bc of you) . Been learning clarinet for nearly 6 years now :D)
Oh my god. The stylophone, the guitar pick on the harp, plucking violin strings, ...chopping walnuts??? Spider Dance has always been my favorite song on the Undertale soundtrack, and I practically squealed when I saw the "Upcoming..." on my recommended. You made the song even more fun than it already was. You did amazing, and this is absolutely my favorite Undertale cover of yours to date. Thank you so much
I'm still amazed how this game keeps inspiring such quality content 8 years after its release. Just discovered your channel today, and I'm super impressed with the music production, arrangement, video editing, and how you theme the video to the games story. I will definitely support the spider bake sale!

This is not just a musical masterpiece with plenty of unconventional play styles and vintage/unusual instruments, but also on a videomaking stand point, it's written perfectly and is incredibly interesting to watch and not just listen to. By far the best one from you so far!!
Three parts to my rating of this music video 1. Note synergy Nailed it, 10 points for this part. 2. Dynamics/How you play the notes You captured the bounce to the song perfectly, as well as the slight choppiness interstates within. 10 points 3. Theatrics/Editing As per usually, the editing was on point and really helped the bounciness of the song stand out with a slight bounce to your stature. The cookies also helped fit the theme of Muffet, so 10 points in that regard. This is just my personal opinion, but if someone watches your videos consistently and doesn’t enjoy listening, they are lying to themselves. All of your covers are not only amazing, but they also are unique in their own way. Keep being great, though I doubt you need someone to tell you.
The editing on the harp playing, making your fingers jump from string to string emulating the boss fight was amazing. 🎉🎉🎉 I also love vintage, electronic, and weird instruments so the stylophone was delightful.
You have once again blown me away! Of course, the use of the knife sharpening was a genius way of incorporating narrative elements into the percussion, but I was also impressed by the use of the pick on the harp to get that sharp staccato rather than a typical long resonant note. Maybe this is a common practice but I’ll admit I’ve never seen it before! The accuracy on the descending trills was amazing too, it’s such a fast paced song and you kept the note integrity so clean. The saxophones were also a fantastic choice, and you looked like you were having so much fun with the flute! And, of course, never underestimate the power of a well-placed triangle 😎 incredible work once again my guy!!
As a violinist, the way you fingered the strings at 1:10 stabbed me in the gut. But apart from that, I'm honestly blown away by the creativity of the presentation, and the way you used a knife for sound effects. The mastery over a variety of instruments is amazing! Another great banger has once again been released.
oh, oh I'm ADORING the ridiculous amount and specific instruments used here, the sheer ENERGY and fun i had watching this is amazing. the choppy style editing representing the specific energy one gets listening to that song. the flutes and use of the knife, everything here is delightful. love all your work but i often just binge the videos and forget the comments but ✨✨✨
This game is the save point. When you stop playing, you go back again to it. You play it over and over again. It does not get boring by any chance. Game is living in our hearts.
Wow, awesome cover! Spider Dance is totally one of my favorites from Undertale. Your editing is also getting really, really good lately. The stylophone was really neat and looked bigger and fancier than most stylophones I've seen (including the one I have). Nice job as always :)
Ahhhh I’m so happy you did this one, I loved it!!!!! 😆 And I also love that you showed the story a bit with the bake sale too!! 🥹 So happy too that the stylophone was repaired because it was a must in this cover, it sounded amazing! 😁🙌🏻 So happy you’re still doing Undertale covers after so long as well! 🥰 I’d love to hear Heartache, Finale, Hopes and Dreams/ SAVE the World, An Ending, Here We Are, Undertale and Reunited! 💗
It's amazing how you're able to play all these instruments at once at such speeds while contorting space in such a way that it makes it look like video cuts.
Oh boy, I absolutely love Spider Dance, and you really knocked it out of the park this time! The knife and the stylophone were awesome. I actually got bit on the nose by a spider last night and I wake up to this, the irony!
Love this cover. The stylophone was a PERFECT addition to this treatment. Loved the addition of the knife and rasp. I can't think of an Undertale song you could go wrong with. They're all so good! All proceeds to real spiders. ;)
This is perfection! This sounds like exactly what you'd hear if you uncompressed all of the chiptune sounds in this track! You nail these every time dude!
Love this one a lot, possibly your best Undertale cover yet. This video was a treat for the eyes as much as the ears, I love your video editing style and the little references you put in. Also all the instruments you used is amazing, I hope I'll be able to use a knife as well as you someday. But the wide array of instruments you use is really cool. The part where the music all picks up at the mid-point and the end is really amazing, it's can only be described as beautiful. Hope you do CORE soon (am I asking too much?)
The stylophone and knife-sharpening have to be the most creative choices you've made so far! Time to loop this for 8 hours~ Thank you so much as always, Luke ❤
This guy is a god. Song, video, the "plot-twist" with the knife, the store reference... JUST EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT, FROM THE BEGINING UNTIL THE END!!!!
This is absolutely amazing, Muffet has always held a place in my heart as my favorite boss (which is weird considering I don't like spiders) so I'm glad you did this one, also Hopes and Dreams should definitely be one you do
Me: Ok, I have to study because the professor will definitely test me tomorrow. InstrumentManiac: * releases a new cover of my favorite Undertale theme * Me: * *I throw the book and immediately grab the headphones* *
Omg this was so much better than I was expecting and I was expecting HIGH!!! This is so good and the BEST remix I’ve heard of this song!! Loved it so much and fantastic work as always!!
I'm always so shocked by this man's talent. I can't possibly fathom all the hard work that went into learn and honing his skills with so many instruments, not to mention the effort that goes into planning and executing these cover pieces that, at the same time, keep so much of the original but improve upon them, putting in the exact vibe you'd want from the song, and also the editing, with references and honestly the overall good vibe he brings. I'm thankful for your work, Luke. I hope for the best for you.
This is my favorite track in Undertale… I didn’t think it could get any better, but I’ve listened to your cover like 10 times and keep coming back to it because it’s such a banger! I think I like your cover more than the original!
Luke, this is incredible! I have been watching and silently admiring your videos for quite a while now, ever since I saw your cover of "Snowy" in my recommended (then I watched all of your Thomas covers!) I love your extremely innovative and well-thought arrangements and all the dedication that you put in both the music and the video. Your cover of "Battle Against A True Hero" was, I can say with confidence, the greatest Undertale cover I've ever heard (and I've heard many!) and this one was super fun aswell. This is in no way a song request, but if you like this type of soundtracks then I *highly* recommend listening to songs from rhythm games such as the Deemo soundtrack, or some of the more classical tracks from Arcaea such as "Paradise"... I feel like you would love those.
Damm, this cover was great, I can't wait for the next one, I love the vibe it gives to the stylophone, I loved it. And I'd love to hear your version of Megalovania, I'd love it.
your shit is insane man, I could legit see these songs as like an offical "instrumental" version of the songs, so dedicated and true to the original and the fact you play everything yourself is amazing, keep it up man I respect and look up to you a lot xD

You sure are a determined individual cover songs of such caliber.
Hell yeah!!
- so what instrument do you play?
- the knife
just imagine how sharp a professional knife player's knife would be after a 4 hour practice session

The one we’ve been waiting for chaps, it’s almost here, be ready to clap your hands for the revival!! Happy 8th anniversary!!

I’m super exited for this - ever since he released his version of Bonetrousle, I thought a version of Spider Dance would be awesome
i cant wait

🤘🙌🙌🙌 Amazing! Nice stylophone 350s!!
Thanks Joe it was a nod to your excellent Spider cover using Stylophone!!
Such a cool retro instrument 📻🤩
I hope I can get that one some day
As a violinist,I also think those viola (I’m assuming) skills are excellent
-How many instruments can you play?
-Yes
Your Undertale covers are hands down the best true-to-original covers on TH-cam.
🥲❤️
Very true
kinda true ngl
so true

looks like pecans to me.
@@KirbyFanDudeThings are heating up in the Nuts fandom
Plucking violin strings is actually normal, though it’s not usually this fast
It's called pizzicato and has been done for centuries lmao
the way the saxophones matched with the flute was crazy and the stylophone sounded exactly like the actual song
Aha! My WhatsApp profile picture!
Honestly, though! It's such an amazing cover 🥹
You're doing the fandom proud, and I know Toby Fox would love this. The execution, the energy, even the presentation. Absolutely spot on. Bravo.
you worded this like he died or something lol

Using the knife was such an unforeseen but awesome move, your covers are so insane and unique! Also the cookies looked so yummm
spider coocie
I like the fact you said “THE knife” as if it’s a real accepted instrument is awesome
Just saying, the Stardew Valley soundtrack is right up his alley
YES I would love this
I would pay good money to see that!
That would be amazing, i love Stardew Valley and Undertale music

Ahh thank you Pablez!
@@InstrumentManiac I think that you should do megalomania next? It’s a great song!
Megalovania.
The harp picking, the accelerating knife sharpening, it all makes me feel so giddy
If you don't look at the obsessive virtuoso man in the video, you can imagine that each instrument is being played by a different spider.
Three parts to my rating of this music video
1. Note synergy
Nailed it, 10 points for this part.
2. Dynamics/How you play the notes
You captured the bounce to the song perfectly, as well as the slight choppiness interstates within. 10 points
3. Theatrics/Editing
As per usually, the editing was on point and really helped the bounciness of the song stand out with a slight bounce to your stature. The cookies also helped fit the theme of Muffet, so 10 points in that regard.

i think it's because it's to hard to pick the harp that fast
@@BakerBones I also accept happy coincidences.
You have once again blown me away! Of course, the use of the knife sharpening was a genius way of incorporating narrative elements into the percussion, but I was also impressed by the use of the pick on the harp to get that sharp staccato rather than a typical long resonant note.

And, of course, never underestimate the power of a well-placed triangle 😎 incredible work once again my guy!!
traditionally you use your nails for the picking sound but I have seen a guitar pick used on a harp before, and tbh I prefer it to the nail picking
何で私は今までこんなに素敵な演奏家を知らなかったんだろう！チャンネル登録と高評価で日本から貴方を応援させて頂きます！！
頑張ろ！
私も応援するよ!!

Well there is definitely knife om thumbnail, so, fitting
Yeah. But for some reason his fingering still has better intonation than me 😢
It’s called stucato
@@tostadaboiit's not sticato, that is when you play a note stopped, I think you are talking about pizzicato

Thank you for doing Spider Dance! It's always been one of my favorites from the soundtrack 😊 Thank you for making this 🕷🔪
i can listen to this all day
I love the woodwind sections chorus onwards, especially at 1:38! Reminds me of the BBC's orchestra.
The way he also moves like a spider is just so mesmerizing.
Fun fact: Spiders legs are erected via blood pressure and when they die they shrink up since the blood pressure is gone!
@@Chaotic_AutismI guess you could say they stand erect.

This video really brings to light how insane that one pianist was
you play so good that it automatically reminded me of the fight and me dying like 100 times.
I love the knives used as percussion! It works so well, and honestly doesn't even feel like a gimmick, but a successful instrument.
0:50 you look EXACTLY like an animated video game character in a cutscene
i just saw it, im very excited! all your covers are masterpieces, im sure i will also love this one
Do not mess with any person who can use a knife as a musical instrument.
1:07 "I DON'T NEED INSTRUMENTS!!! I'VE GOT KNIVES!!!" "I'm... Out of knives."
Mad sipedummy
IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS!!!!! This is my favorite undertale song!
My favorite one!!✨️💜
色んな楽器を1人で演奏するそして完璧！！誰にでもできるような芸当ではないですね。
0:32 - I freaking lost my mind
Holy Moly!!! This will be a masterpiece as always 😊😊
i cannot wait to listen to this, you always make fire remixes
サムネみて音を想像する…うむ。さいっこいだなこりゃ。

This is the best version of this song by far
It's amazing how you're able to play all these instruments at once at such speeds while contorting space in such a way that it makes it look like video cuts.
OH GOD FINALLY!!
They don't know how long I waited for this.❤
Oh boy, I absolutely love Spider Dance, and you really knocked it out of the park this time! The knife and the stylophone were awesome.

hope your nose feels better!

Luke, this is incredible! I have been watching and silently admiring your videos for quite a while now, ever since I saw your cover of "Snowy" in my recommended (then I watched all of your Thomas covers!)
