The SiIvaGunner channel uploads videos in the style of many other video game soundtrack-based YouTube channels; the channel's videos are typically static images, usually of the relevant game's logo, box art or title screen, with a piece of music playing over it, though they may contain visuals such as GIFs, different images or clips from other videos appearing. Such videos are intentionally misleading as to trick the viewer into believing they are actual songs from a game's soundtrack. The uploaded songs, however, are instead remixes, mashups, Cover version, covers, or simple editing jokes. Internet memes and other channel-specific running gags are often incorporated into the rips, including "Meet the Flintstones", ''7 Grand Dad'', ''The Nutshack'', ''Love Live!'' "Snow Halation", ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'', and ''LazyTown'' "We Are Number One".History
The original YouTube channel used from January to April 2016 was named GiIvaSunner; this references a now-defunct Netherlands, Dutch channel named GilvaSunner, but with a capital "i" Homoglyph, used in place of a lowercase "L" (with the effect of making the channel names appear identical). Following the termination of their original YouTube channel in April 2016, the name was changed to SiIvaGunner for the new channel (retaining the capital "i"). In late 2019, the art gallery Gallery Aferro featured an exhibit titled "Elevator Music 6: SiIvaGunner", curated by Juno Zago. An auditory exhibit, it was a collection of SiIvaGunner remixes of classic and new video game music played inside an early-1900s refurbished Otis Worldwide, Otis elevator. In 2020, ''The Daily Dot'' attributed the popularity of internet meme "Yoshi Commits Tax Fraud" to the channel, which uploaded soundtracks purportedly belonging to an entirely fictitious "Yoshi Commits Tax Fraud" video game.References
