  • Drift away to the stars with this relaxing harp version of Lonely Rolling Star from Katamari Damacy!
    Original Composed by Yoshihito Yano
    Arranged and Performed by Harpsona
    Audio Mixing by Nabeel Ansari
    Although I planned this release before the Soundole Chill Out 2021 competition was announced, I found this should work nicely as an entry! Best of luck to all the participants!

    3rd time listening and my eyes are *STRREEAAAMMMIINNGGG.* 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
    I need a 10 hour loop of this to sleep/cry to. My son (5) and I first heard this song when 8 Bit Big Band covered it and fell in love. We sing it all the time. I plan to get the game for the Switch just to hear it actually in game. Then my friend sent me this and I'm just crying my eyes out at how beautifully this is played. It just makes me think of so many things, and I'm not the best with holding in my emotions, so now I have a wet pillow.
    😭😭😂😂
    Nevertheless I'm so so so impressed with this, and really hope it gets the views it deserves. This is an actual master piece. I know you asked to know our favourite parts but honestly I loved every single second. I've wanted to learn this song on piano and this will actually help me hear both the left and right hands better. Thank you thank you thank you for this incredible rendition of such an already beautiful song. 😭😭😭😭

      Thank you so much! I use two Rode NT1-A Condenser mics with one positioned in front of the column of the harp, and one a little off to my left facing the upper strings. The dry/raw signal sounds great too, but a little bit of extra fullness/brightness is brought about through the mixing process.
