ReFourmation Previews - Matt Gray

A song for friends that we love and we know will need to move on. We'll always be here, regardless of where they go. 

This is dedicated for Adina. She was my good friend's good friend. She left a bright trail in the lives of many people.  

So Close, So Far,

Just to see you and my heart smiles.
To be with you and while you talk to me,
I'm watching, drinking you in.
A deep draft of you and I'm still thirsty.

Just to see you lifts my heart.
To be with you and feel a part,
of this moment of beauty.
And I'm watching, something precious
All these riches before me and I'm still greedy

To see you, to hear you, that's how life should be.
To love you and be with you where else would I be?

Yet each time we meet, I'm scared its the last.
Your perfect glaze shows the faults in my cast.

To see you now and I'm amazed.
Your dreams awake, you've flown away,
To a place where your happy.
And I'm watching, you fly high.
Waiting for the day you'll say goodbye,
Scared and waiting for the day you'll say goodbye.

Interim Breathing

Way back in 2008 I made this track because I love a game on the Sega Mega-drive called Lemmings and wanted to try and see if I could make a better tune out of it. The level it's modeled on is "tailor made for blockers."

At one point during 2009, I decided to tackle Yuffies' theme from the videogame Final Fantasy 7. I was really bad at re-creating certain tunes (I still am!) so I didn't think I could do it but I somehow managed to get it right.

I was really into a guy called Instant Remedy at the time (I still am!) and his re-creation of a C64 tune from a video game called Lazy Jones was my inspiration for making the track this way.

I had a go at trying the Tetris theme (A). It's pretty minimal but it's all there.

My take on the track known as 'Laughter' from the Phantasy Star 4 (IV) soundtrack. Not entirely different from the original, I just wanted to challenge myself to make it with better sounding synths.

Laughter - Phantasy Star 4 (IV)- Synth remake- edit #1

I didn't change the melody in any way, I just wanted to challenge myself for July 2016 and try to attempt this song before August came around. I searched for the best plugins I could find and it quickly developed into what you hear now. It's a little rusty and parts may be wrong/missing but I think I gave it a good whirl.

A big thanks to Matthias Westlund for creating the Sonatina Orchestra samples you can hear in this song and also to Joe Stevens for creating plugins out of the samples! 

And lastly to Nobuo Uematsu for creating the original and for being a huge inspiration to my music making.

Music maker & sound designer. I make my own music as well as put my own twist on video-game tunes. I one day aspire to be a video-game music artist.  I take my limitations and roll with it!

If my tracks put a smile on your face or a boogie in your step, then my work is worth it! :)
