Dream Theater keyboardist, Jordan Rudess, recently visited the Pianote studio once again. Check out the video below.
Pianote: “Watch what happens when one of the world’s most legendary keyboard players hears AC/DC for the very first time…or so he thinks. Things take an unexpected turn as Jordan Rudess tries to make sense of what he’s hearing, and creates a new spin on this classic track.”
The official Drumeo YouTube channel recently shared a video featuring Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy and keyboardist Jordan Rudess. Check it out below.
Drumeo: “‘The Dance of Eternity’ is one of the most iconic (and toughest) progressive metal songs ever recorded. Over the past two years, both Mike Portnoy and Jordan Rudess from Dream Theater visited the Musora Studios — and filmed some amazing performances. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory, we put together a mashup of Mike and Jordan playing this legendary (and seriously complex) track.”
Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory is Dream Theater’s fifth studio album, and their first concept album. It was released on October 26, 1999, through Elektra Records.
The album is the sequel to the song “Metropolis—Part I: ‘The Miracle and the Sleeper'”, the cornerstone of the band’s 1992 album, Images And Words. It was also the first Dream Theater album to feature Jordan Rudess on keyboards.
On June 24, 2024, it was announced that the album would receive a novel adaptation, with Peter Orullian as the author. It was released on October 26, 2024, coinciding with the album’s 25th anniversary. The book is available here.
