The Entertainer (Vault 13 edition)

Here's a cover of the Scott Joplin classic, set in the Fallout video game's post apocalyptic hellscape.

What can I say, I like Post Apocalyptic Hellscapes.

[Ferryman_1957]

I also like post-apocalyptic soundscapes, so this version made me picture some forlorn traveller (like in The Road) coming across a piano and playing this melody to remind him of happier times past while he worries about the next zombie cannibal attack......

Don't know if that's what you were going for.....?

Nice... something a little twisted just in the mix of that familiar tune being played using those tones. Nicely played too!

THe Road (Cormac McCarthy) is one of my favorite books, along with The Stand (Stephen King) and Alas Babylon (Pat Frank) and many more.

It's very nice! ...I know well this song that I used to play in my fingerpicking period on the guitar...I don't know how to do it anymore...I'm going to learn it again
and I like the ethereal rendering of the beginning...

Warp.... I am guessing that is short for Warren P?  Anyway.... lovely piece... i love a good harpsichord sound.... well played... i wonder if there would be any post apocalypse music? 

[WarpCanada]

Post apocalyptic for me is mixing two things:

- Retro (especially songs which look back to the 1980s, the 1980s, or the 1950s, and evoke a bygone era).

- The Aeolian Harp, some sort of music played by the wind blowing through a ruin.


We could imagine that most of the folks who produced the art are gone, but that there remains some trace yet of those of us who made something beuatiful.
