Passing Breeze
This song and music score is "Passing Breeze" from OUTRUN. Outrun is one of the representative works of SEGA in its heyday. The three outrun BGMs were all good songs. The system that allows players to select BGM was also epoch-making at the time.
This is the music score for the first four bars. At first, repeat 4 measures without melody twice. This song often has chords with two tensions, 7th and 9th.
This is the music score after the 8th measure. This music score has a TAB score on the melody so that you can play it with a guitar. However, the pitch is low, so it may be a little difficult to play. The lowest note in the bass is D, so I can't play it with a 4-string bass.
This is the music score after the 16th measure. The chord progressions and phrases in this section are very simple. There is no problem in particular.
This is the music score after the 32nd measure. The rhythm of the bass will change from here. The keyboard is played with "Arpeggio Down". In the original song, the sound is playing a little faster than the position described in the music score. "To Coda" and "D.S. al Coda" are described in the same bar.
At the 48th measure, transpose from A to C. The keyboard music scores in this section have changed a bit. For example, on the 3rd beat of the 3rd bar of the above score, only the second note B from the top has no tie. This is not a mistake in the music score.
The music score shown here ends after repeating the last 16 measures once. The original song recorded on the soundtrack fades out when it is repeated. The BGM in the game is looping without repeating.
