Salutations listener!

Here is a Jazz/Fusion piece I wrote somewhere along the lines of Grand Turismo meets Mario Kart.

I hope you enjoy!

[OST15] Alpha Trio - Elsie (Original Game Soundtrack)

Hi, everyone!

Just wanted to share another track from Elsie's Original Game Soundtrack! This is the boss encounter track for the Ice World ("Trishula's Tundra"). This time featuring a more prog + fusion blend. I also had the opportunity to blend in a bit of a Venezuelan joropo into the final section before the loop starts again. This track features condensed version of the themes from the two biome level tracks!

** About **
Welcome to my Video Game and Anime cover project, Strettostein! I'll be arranging, recording and uploading more content in the near future. Stay tuned for more arrangements!

For more information about me or my music, check up my social network pages or website!

The arrangement features an extended Taiko/Shamisen introduction but then transitions into the the original structure. I took a few liberties with the electric guitar parts in this one as well, but kept the majority of the arrangement very loyal to the original. I also tried to keep the cover fairly accessible!

Unfortunately don't have anything transcribed to tabs or a score, as everything was performed from memory!

I hope you guys enjoy it,

** About the cover **
Greetings!

I decided to arrange the music from one of my favorite childhood games, Mario Kart 64's Rainbow Road track. The piece remains in a Jazz/Fusion style with some rock influences, keeping the melodies very loyal to the original while re-harmonizing its support!

I also added some textures from the original Rainbow Road track from SNES's Mario Kart, mainly around the beginning of the cover.

Unfortunately don't have anything transcribed to tabs or a score, as everything was performed from memory!

Hello everyone,

Here's an arrangement of the main theme from one of my favorite shows, Detective Conan! I experimented with a few different textures in the accompaniment and some of the sections, but chose to keep the thematic material fairly loyal to the original version.

** About the cover **
Greetings!

An arrangement of one of my favorite pieces, by one of my favorite video game composers, Jun Ishikawa! Many great tracks can be found in Kirby Super Star, but I thought I'd give this one a run. I decided to transcribe and add the original theme from Metaknight's Revenge opening at the beginning : )

The mix sounds good, but took a while to combine the sound worlds created by ensembles. I will revisit the mix for this piece in the future and upload a revised version to my SoundCloud page.

Steel Samurai & Cross Examination - Arranged! [Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney]

Hi!

Here's something I wrote today with some free soundfonts I found online as an exercise.

After a bit of tweaking I managed to add different types of controls to the patches in order to get filter sweeps and other forms of vibrato/bends. It's my first time working with soundfonts, but it turned out to be a very cool experience. In the future I'd like to integrate many of these sounds to other ensembles, such as an orchestra or a jazz band.

I hope you enjoy!

Press Start!

Hello! 

Here is a track inspired by some of the pieces in a video game called "Mystery Room" from the Layton series. It's fairly different than some of the other Prof. Layton games, but still very fun to play. The soundtrack is fantastic as well.

In my composition I wanted to tell a story in three main steps, while adding a tinge of lightheartedness! 

I hope you enjoy it!

Mystery, Encounter and Pursuit

Hello!

Here is a track I created in a hybrid orchestral style. It's separated in different layers so that they fade in and out when combat starts and ends!

It features some traditional cinematic action writing with a bit of sound design to add the "hybrid" sound.

The piece was created for my Unity and Fabric audio implementation portfolio that I'm currently working on. It's already been added and programmed into the demo of Angry Bots obtained from Unity's site.

Please enjoy!

Infiltration

Hello everyone!

"Under the Aurora Borealis" is my submission for 8Dio's 2015 Stand Out Contest. The following list includes the 8Dio instruments that have been used in its creation:

*8Dio Requiem Professional (Full Choir, FX and Soloists)
*8Dio Metal Bowls
*8Dio Lyre (Thumb Plucked and Bowed)
*8Dio Agitato (Grandiose Legato Ensemble Violins)
*8Dio Epic Taiko Ensemble (Taiko Ensemble Huge)

Originally titled "Repentance Under the Aurora Borealis", but decided to make some final changes to the piece and take it in a different direction!

On a more technical note,  I had some fun experimenting with the automation for the reverb parameters, as well as the EQ bands that controlled the Mid/Side stereo image.  

Thank you for listening!

Under the Aurora Borealis

Salutations!

Here is a short fantasia-like composition written as a result of experimenting with different workflow schemes! I tend to daydream a bit, so I've decided to write a few of the ideas that appear when this happens. I suppose this would be a diary of sorts. : ) 

I changed the way I usually write for orchestra, and ended up sketching the entire work into five grand staves (one for each instrument family). The next step involved exporting and preparing the MIDI data out of the notation program and into the DAW to begin mocking up the score.

A bit on the side of an Adventure/Fantasy cue, featuring many modulations and abrupt changes of direction and very fun to write! Motive exposition and development sprinkled here and there, plus a few characteristic gestures helped propel the piece forward.

Please enjoy!

Daydreamer's Fantasia No. 1

Hello everyone!

Here's a menu theme I made for a game undergoing development. Tried my hand at a Jazz/Fusion & EDM blend to create a groovy track in a binary form. :D
