Inbetween researching, reading, notetaking, and idea formulation for my creative project examining the experience of speed and driving, I’ve been watching a Japanese Drama called GTO (Great Teacher Onizuka). The episodes kept getting better and better, and now I’ve finished watching it I find it a bit of a let down that there were only 12 episodes. There are however a special episode and a movie I have yet to see (broadband pending)…
Anyhow, I’ve come to love the main theme by Takeshi Sorimachi, ‘Poison’. Considering there appears to be no available piano sheet music of it (or a midi of the piano version), I did a combination of converting a midi of the opening song to a music sheet (using midinotate) to get the key and chords etc right, and then transcribing the more detailed left hand rhythms and chord melody sequences direct from the powerful piano version of it to the keyboard (by ear). I need more practice, but I can accurately play at least 95% of the song
