Originally recorded for a very special full band cover project, I present my bass cover version of this awesome song from The Astonishing (2016). The song itself is a really entertaining one (also fun to play), with lots of this and that: ragtime, swing, metal, I also find some similarities with classic rock operas (Jesus Christ Superstar, to name one).

I tried to capture the general atmosphere of the album (a somewhat anachronistic mix of everything), a touch of steampunk, fantasy, and dystopian sci-fi and match the style of the video and the lyrics with it.

Recording done in front of a green screen (thx to István Dobrovitz of Kármán Stúdió) for setting it up & capturing the video.

All editing (audio & video) done by myself.

Thanks to yt user Falkenauge for the clockwork animation.
