What does JasCutesy mean?
JasCutesy derives from my name Jasmine and cutesy. It was created since the start of my interest in knitting and crocheting, especially making cute amigurumis. It was a platform for me to share my craft projects. Over the years, I have started doing piano covers so JasCutesy is not all about cutesy anymore. The blog has always been a comfort zone for me and so are the covers now.

How did you learn to arrange song?
Back in the day, I was the one who frequently browsed for sheets on the internet. It was really depressing because some of the songs that I like do not have a music sheet or the piano arrangement was not fully to my liking. Hence, I thought why don’t I just try doing the transcription myself? My first cover gathered views quite quickly, which gave me the courage to share more of my works. I am completely self-taught in terms of transcribing and arranging. I learned mostly from YouTube pianists and tutorials to understand how others make arrangements and get new ideas.
How can I support you?
The current best way to support me is to stream my covers on Spotify and YouTube. Alternatively, you can give a little token of encouragement by donating via Paypal. Thank you for listening!
What payment methods are accepted?
Paypal or credit card are accepted. China users please contact via Wechat @lim_jiamin for purchase. Malaysia users are welcomed to message me via Facebook or Instagram to make purchase using Touch-n-go e-wallet.
Do you take song requests?
I have played the piano for years but I do not major in music so I actually do not feel confident enough to the point of accepting request. You can always make suggestions although I may not have the time to make them. I find myself not satisfied with the work if I am not familiar enough with the piece. I believe both affection and time are required for me to do a cover in order to show enough respect the original song deserves. I hope you understand.
Can I use your covers?
I get asked for permission to use my covers as background music or instrumentals for various purposes. Feel free to use and share my music as long as the source is credited. Since I am only doing covers, keep in mind that copyright belongs to the original artist.
