What The Forest Taught Me (Secret of Mana)

An orchestration of the Metroid music Kraid's Lair. This one really stood out to me as an awesome track for the middle part. As with my last Metroid piece, there's also little synthy bits to it to give it a retro touch.

Thanks for all the comments, likes & subscribers on my channel so far! Feel free to check it out for more of my music, including game remixes and original pieces.

Metroid - Kraid's Lair Orchestra

Wrote Song of Healing, Song of Storms, Lost Woods and Song of Time into one remix because I have too much time on my hands xD Now I'll have to start working on the individual song remixes :3

[Zelda Remix] SharaX - Hyrule Symphony

Artwork: http://kasempan.deviantart.com/art/FA-Grillby-form-Undertale-599219085

As I was working on this remix, I kept thinking it would work well for Grillby's theme, even though the song doesn't play at his bar OvO I think it should play at Grillby's though, he's such a classy bartender OxO (I have a love for bartenders btw, have you seen the majestic tricks these guys do) o3o Graduation’s in May too, so I’m pretty sure Asriel’s getting a remix of Hopes and Dreams & Save The World-OH BOY! *flips table*  (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Next week's gonna be a special remix thingy, and then the week after will most likely be Snowdin's Theme OwO

[Undertale Remix] SharaX - It's Raining Somewhere Else

Artwork: http://athenahao2000.deviantart.com/art/Who-Cares-Anymore-585858660

It's about time I did an Original Song for Undertale, so here ya go OvO There's some train references in this one too, so hopefully you can figure out what's going on in the lyrics below x3

-Lyrics-

[Sans]
Here take a ticket, welcome to my paradise,
But there's a price to pay when no one can remember that they've died.
I've watched a thousand times the sound
of a burnt-out heartbeat.

Here's all your reason you can
throw it to the wind,
And I'd be lying to myself
if I thought "Now it's over,"
Maybe I should say it louder?
Just listen to that echo.

Knock knock, who's there? Not my laughter,
I am drowning, falling faster,
Racing on the tracks, the answer's
just another shattered flower.

[SharaX]
Knock, knock? - -
Who's there? - -
Knock, knock? - -
Laughter.

Knock, knock? - -
Who's there? - -
Knock, knock? - -
Laughter.

[Papyrus]
Here's all your reason you can
throw it to the wind,
And I'd be lying to myself
if I thought "Now it's over,"
Maybe I should say it louder?
Just listen to that echo.

Just like the turning wheels under a speeding train,
You take a step and hear the sound of warning,
disregarded pain,
cause on the other side it's promised there's no more silence.

[SharaX]
Knock knock, who's there? Not my laughter,
I am drowning, falling faster,
Racing on the tracks, the answer's
just another shattered flower.

Knock knock, who's there? Not my laughter,
I am drowning, falling faster,
Racing on the tracks, the answer's
just another shattered flower.

[Sans]
Knock knock, who's there? Not my laughter,
I am drowning, falling faster,
Racing on the tracks, the answer's
just another shattered flower.

[Sans & SharaX]
Knock knock, who's there? Not my laughter,
I am drowning, falling faster,
Racing on the tracks, the answer's
just another shattered flower.

[SharaX]
Knock knock, who's there? Not my laughter,
I am drowning, falling faster,
Racing on the tracks, the answer's
just another shattered flower.

I've updated all bios of my OC's, so if you're interested in Space Pirates and murder you should definitely click this link to read more OvO http://sharaxofficial.tumblr.com/undertronic and the lyrics to this song are below!

[Lyrics]

You say I'm drifting, that "I'm lost in thought."
Just taking in the sights and wondering what lies under snow,
Not paying mind to time, no sense of rush,
With every step it's a reminder of,
Adventures unknown.

I see you run ahead and I don't mind,
Sometimes it's better if I walk this bridge alone,
far behind,
In case I stagger maybe pause too long,
and then the beauty's gone,
the birds are silenced, now.

"I know what you did,"
Just a bird, I say, "Go away."
"You can't live like this,"
"You're a coward, a fool, pretender."
Takes a moment perched, and then flies to another branch,
"You call this your home? Snowdin's no place for murderers so-

Tell me how you plan to solve this,
I could whisper all that's honest,
I should leave you out here alone,
Like the one you left long ago."

[Chronos 1:42]
"I know what you did,"
Just a bird, I say, "Go away."
"You can't live like this,"
"You're a coward, a fool, pretender."
Takes a moment perched, and then flies to another branch,
"You call this your home? Snowdin's no place for murderers so-

[Zephyr 1:59]
"I know what you did,"
Just a bird, I say, "Go away."
"You can't live like this,"
"You're a coward, a fool, pretender."
Takes a moment perched, and then flies to another branch,
"You call this your home? Snowdin's no place for murderers so-

[Zephyr 2:13]
Someone's calling,
voices talking,
lost among the ice,
it's falling.
Then there's silence,
No one saw this,
Cry for help
and drown in whiteness.

Can you keep a secret?
Try me.
Cowardice and fear's behind me,
Left it buried under blankets,
And it haunts me,
taints me,
breaks me.

[Chronos 3:04]
Someone's calling,
voices talking,
lost among the ice,
it's falling.
Then there's silence,
No one saw this,
Cry for help
and drown in whiteness.

Can you keep a secret?
Try me.
Cowardice and fear's behind me,
Left it buried under blankets,
And it haunts me,
taints me,
breaks me.

[Chronos & Zephyr 3:20 and 4:30]
Someone's calling,
voices talking,
lost among the ice,
it's falling.
Then there's silence,
No one saw this,
Cry for help
and drown in whiteness.

Can you keep a secret?
Try me.
Cowardice and fear's behind me,
Left it buried under blankets,
And it haunts me,
taints me,
breaks me.

Finally finished up Heartache o3o There's a few hints of Tokyovania and Renegade in there :3 Next week's remix might be something I've been working on for Overwatch, unless I finish an Undertale remix first - I'm not sure atm ೭੧(❛▿❛✿)੭೨

[Undertale Remix] SharaX - Heartache

Here's an orchestrated version of the Title music from the Metroid Zero Mission soundtrack by Kenji Yamamoto & Minako Hamano. I haven't tried anything Metroid-related since my Super Metroid Symphony, but it was awesome to play with the music again!

A Collection of Orchestrations

Metroid Zero Mission - Title Orchestra

The "Kraid's Lair" piece I did back in 2011 was always one of my favourite orchestrations, but I've always felt it was just a bit too short. Here's a bonus track for the week - a rendition of the Metroid Zero Mission version, which is a little bit longer.

Here's an orchestrated version of the Dead Sea - Tower Of Geddon track from the second disc of the Chrono Cross soundtrack. It's an awesome soundtrack by Yasunori Mitsuda.

This was part of a making-of-livestream. You can watch an archive of the stream @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qiS3PqlBCI and see the piece come together over the space of a couple of hours.

An orchestrated version of the Brinstar theme from the original Metroid game. It's quite brassy and does differ in rhythm from the original, but you should hopefully recognise it.

Metroid - Brinstar Orchestra

My friend and fellow producer PrototypeRaptor called this "cinematic dubstep" when he first heard it. I agree with that genre! I wanted to combine really dark and atmospheric elements reminiscent of monster-infested lava caves on an alien world with heavy dubstep rhythms, beats, wobbles and my own personal flavor. Hope you enjoy the result.

Metroid Rock City (Metroid)

I've been tinkering with music since I was a kid, composing tunes for fun. Nowadays, I mainly write orchestral scores for video games. Alongside this, with an extensive career in the games industry as a tools programmer I've now focused my skills on developing next-generation sample libraries and music software.
