Nier Automata - "Weight of the World" Metal Guitar Cover (feat. Caleb Hyles)

I really like video game music, but few tunes really jerk the tears out of me. When I finished Nier Automata last summer I knew it was gonna be my game of the year no matter what since it had an earth shattering impact on me. This credits theme was really tough to want to cover since it is such a huge part of the ending. I wanted to make sure I had the perfect person to do vocals and I can't think of anyone better suited than Caleb.

Thank you guys so much for supporting me so I can do thi...

Octopath Traveler "Battle I" Metal Guitar Cover

I'm really happy I tried this game because I wasn't initially super interested since I have a hard time getting into turn based RPGs sometimes. The story so far is great and the music is incredible. Can't wait for the full release on Friday! Hope you guys are excited about it too and enjoy the new cover!

5 INSANELY FUN Video Game Bass Lines

Ernie Ball sent me this amazing bass to try out and I thought what better way to show it off than show you guys some of the most fun video game bass lines to play! I hope people like this format because it could be a really fun idea to follow up on.

No charge for this video, if you still want to support this one you can donate to me on Twitch or elsewhere, I super appreciate it! I feel like these videos are more geared towards musicians so I'd feel bad charging everyone for this one. Thanks so...

No Video Tomorrow.

Hey everyone, Thanks so much for the continued support. This week I don't have a video for you guys. I've been trying to feel out how I want to do post year 4 for a while and I feel like my next step is to aim for weekly but not to cover music for the sake of meeting a deadline or to try to capitize on hype unless I'm super hype about it too. For the majority of these few years, I've always seen the most success in consistent channels but now a days it seems that there's so much more to it tha...

Wii Sports Theme Metal Guitar Cover (feat. ArtificialFear)

It's hard to be more excited about a cover than this one. Mat and I have been really good friends since the beginning of our YouTube careers back in 2010 and we finally met in real life for the first time this year! He came out to do this amazing Wii Sports arrangement he and I collaborated on (mostly all him though, haha) and I couldn't be more proud of the result.

Hope you guys like it! Updates on the channel and stuff coming soon! I'll also be posting to Lens so look out for that!

50 Video Game Themes in 3 Minutes

I've been talking about a follow up to 50 Video Game Themes in 2 Minutes for a while now. Here it is! Now with an extra minute!

I was hoping the added time would help develop on the songs but what I found was it was still just as crazy since I could only give the songs about an average of 3.6 seconds each. Guess I'll just have to do 50 Video Game Songs in 5 Minutes next! LOL

Enjoy!

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - "Ancient Stones" Metal Guitar Cover

First cover of June! There's few times in the past years that I can look back and say there was a HUGE step in my production and I think this weeks cover is a one of them. This cover is the first 4K video I've done and I'm hoping to keep it up from now on! 

Every time I hear this song in the game I get chills so it was an absolute joy to cover this one. Hope you guys like it!

Street Fighter II - 'Vega's Theme' Metal Guitar Cover | FamilyJules

When I was making Replay, I wanted to avoid doing songs I'd done before as much as I could. When I got to Street Fighter, the only one I hadn't done that was on my list was this one and I realized what a banger it is. It's been way too long since I hit up Street Fighter so I'm super glad I could do this.

As I said in my previous message, tabs will be made available for this very soon! I've been working on constructing a team of tab writers so that I can continue to focus on making videos but a...

Thank you.

I am absolutely beside myself. Yesterday I hit the $1000 mark on Patreon and I can't figure out how to properly thank you guys for that. I appreciate you guys so much and hope to continue growing and make better and better content with all of your support. Tabs will be made available for every cover I can while my Patreon reads above $1000 to all silver level supporters. This may or may not include medleys depending on difficulty or time constraint and they will be made available upon creation ...

Mega Man Intro/Theme Metal Guitar Cover | FamilyJules

This week, I've got for you a cover of one of the most iconic video game beginnings of all time. This is one I've been wanting to put out since I did a sliver of it in the top 10 medley for title themes. Hope you enjoy where I went with it! -Jules

Chrono Trigger - "Boss Battle 1" Metal Guitar Cover | FamilyJules

This is one of my favorite video game tracks and I'm so happy to finally get to share it with you guys.

I've been really shying away from classic games and I miss it so my next few covers are going to be retro games. Hope you enjoy them!

-Jules

Knasibas - "Rural" Metal Guitar Cover

This week I'm sharing something different for you guys. I was recently a part of a really cool chiptunes cover album for Chiptunes = WIN and I did Knasibas' arrangement of Rural for it. Normally in the past I wouldn't want to make videos for projects like this since it's not video game related, but now that I'm really branching out into other avenues, I thought this would be a great opportunity to share this with you, especially since I'm really proud of how it turned out! I know it's a bit diff...

Flamingo - Kero Kero Bonito (Feat. Adriana Figueroa)

This is a cover I've been wanting to do for a long time. It's something I've been scared to post since my channel has been so focused on video games, but I'm really glad I could share this with you guys. Adriana and I had a lot of fun working on this and hope you guys enjoy it! -Jules

PAX East 2018 Vlog!

If you've got a minute, pull up a chair @everyone and lemmie tell you the story of PAX East 2018, the most amazing PAX I've been to thus far! Thanks for the support, this is a vlog so no charge! Hope you're all doing well! :) -Jules

Rimworld - "Rough Trail" Guitar Cover

This week I'm doing something out of my comfort zone, something that's not super popular, but something that's a really passion project. Rimworld is one of my favorite games right now and I've always wanted to do something of this style. Hope you dig what I did with this! -Jules

My Hero Academia - "Odd Future" ENGLISH (Season 3 Opening) Feat. Caleb Hyles

 I'm doing it! Finally starting to venture out of my comfort zone with non-vgm stuff. Hope you guys like it because this is a scary jump for me. Luckily I have one of the coolest, and most talented singers on YouTube to join me in bringing an english version of this awesome theme to you guys! Hurry up and give Caleb a sub if you haven't already! If english isn't your thing, check out RichaadEB's cover or the one on Caleb's channel coming soon! Hope you enjoy em!

The FamilyJules Ultimate Q&A Part 7: Miscellaneous (Memes)

The final Q&A is here! This is arguably the funniest/dumbest one depending on your taste. Hope you enjoyed this series and learned some stuff about me if you cared. Love ya <3

Doki Doki Literature Club - "Your Reality" Metal Guitar Cover

I wasn't initially going to cover this since even though I loved the game, it would have sounded silly in my normal style. I figured out this cool riff for it and decided to give it a go anyway and I really like how it turned out!

Tabs will be available to all silver level supporters! Check out the new Tabs folder in your March Patreon Drive Folder!

-Jules

Tabs may be incoming!

Hey everyone,

I CANNOT believe I'm up to $900 a cover on Patreon! Thank you so much! With this overwhelming support, I've been rethinking some things here and I hope this excites you!

The $1000 per cover goal has changed because I thought up a better way to thank you for that than the Ten Video Music theory series (which is now $1250). If you guys can help me reach that milestone, ever cover that comes out while I'm above that will have TABS! That's right! I'm finally caving in.

The FamilyJules Ultimate Q&A - Part 6: Life

This week for the Ultimate Q&A, I tackled some really cool questions about my life! This was probably the most fun section to do. Hope you enjoy!

Year 4 is Over. What's Next for Me?

I'm always going to look back at this year as something special. Here's my wrap up video of me reflecting on the year, my career thus far, and what to expect in the future from me. Thank you so much for being a part of this journey with me!

The Super Mario Super Medley - A Collaborative Musical Tribute to the History of Mario

It's hard for me to find the right words to say here. This is the end of Year 4 and this video is the biggest and most meaningful project I've put out and I hope you guys enjoy it. Thank you to everyone who was a part of it and the people like you on Patreon for helping make it happen. I love you all. Thank you, Mario.

Diablo - "Tristram Village" Acoustic/Metal Guitar Cover

This is one of the biggest personal achievements for me on this channel. Tristram Village was looming over me and I can finally say I've tackled it and did the entire song. I broke out everything I could to get this song right so I hope you enjoy!

Lens: See exclusive Behind the Scenes of my work!

Hey everyone, I've been trying to work towards making cool perks for you guys who pledge to me and Patreon just dished out the new Lens feature which I'm going to try to use to show more behind the scenes video clips of what I do! It's kind of like Snapchat where if you have the Patreon app, you will get a notification that I have posted clips viewable only to those who pledge to me that will delete after 24 hours. I'll be using it to hype up new videos and show what I'm working on day by day. I...

Undertale - "Reunited" Guitar Cover

This is a very important one for me. I've always been late to the punch with Undertale songs but this one is my favorite song from the game. I hope I capture the sheer emotional intensity that comes with finishing the pacifist route. Thank you so much everyone for all your support in helping me make covers like this one.
