Me playing the Mario Kart 8 slap intro - almost got it!

I've been learning a bunch of video game music and this one has been kicking my ass!

That's pretty good. But you're too low. Gotta cut through that mix.

it sounds real clean. My ear isn't great, do you pick this up by ear or look for transcriptions? I usually start from transcriptions because I'm lazy but then make alterations because the #1 rule of tabs (or any other form) is that they're always wrong.

I need to practice more, I want to sound as clean as you do.

Hey thanks! I did look at some transcriptions for this one as it's so fast, but also like you I adapted them a little as I could hear a couple of differences.

The clean technique is just from many many years of practice. Keep at it!
