It also brought us many memorable memes like El psy congroo, Tuturuu~, Dr. pepper and the Nixie tube clock aka the divergence meter. I might be 9 years too late, but here is finally my piano arrangement for \u300cHacking to the Gate\u300d &#8211; the Opening song of Steins;Gate!<\/p>\n<p>This song was a little bit more difficult than usual to arrange because the second verse and second chorus are almost identical to the first one and I have to think of various ways how to avoid sounding repetitive on the piano. The left hand in 01:40 is playing in a higher voice range and it&#8217;s less rhythmical, compared to the left hand in the first verse in 00:16. Interestingly, the right hand pattern from the very beginning in 00:04 serves quite well as the left hand accompaniment in 01:53 and it gives the piano a certain floating sound.<\/p>\n<p>Since Steins;Gate is an Anime about time travel and different world lines, I also tried to simulate it on the piano during each repeat of the chorus. The first chorus is played in the high register, the second chorus is where the &#8220;world line divergence&#8221; is happening and the melody is played in two different voice ranges in 02:30. The third chorus in 03:46 has a right hand tremolo, imitating the ticking of a clock and the final chorus has an additional melody in the left hand in 04:00, simulating the &#8220;world lines&#8221;, who are converging together. A similar effect is also audible in the outro part in 04:12, where the melody [C-B-G-G-A] is being repeated in rapid succession in different voice ranges. <\/p>\n<p>Last but not least I also included a short musical Easter egg in the bridge part starting at 03:10. Can you guess which Soundtrack I am quoting in this part?<br \/>\nAlright, that would be everything about Hacking to the Gate. But I have a feeling, I can feel the presence of another &#8220;me&#8221; in a different worldline. I wonder why&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I guess I will see you next week again as usual! Thank you for listening to my piano arrangement!<\/p>\n<p>Animenz<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211;<br \/>\nMy Facebook page:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Animenz<br \/>\nFollow me on Twitter!<br \/>\n<a class=\"twitter-timeline\" data-width=\"770\" data-height=\"1000\" data-dnt=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Animenzzz?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tweets by Animenzzz<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nI am using Instagram as well!<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/animenz_official\/<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211;<br \/>\nPiano arrangement by Animenz<br \/>\nOriginal Song: Hacking to the Gate<br \/>\nAnime: Steins;Gate<br \/>\nPublished by: 5pb.
