Astro's Playroom Remix

Finally, I managed to get the technical stuff up and running to return to my old habit of playing along with video game soundtracks, which was not possible for some years because of hard- and software limitations. Now that this feature is working again, I thought that more than 500 YouTube subscribers would be a nice occasion to put it to a good use.

What you can experience in this compilation is an extra "organ track", which I played and recorded in parallel while the "Legend of Zelda — Breath of the Wild" OST was playing and which was dubbed onto the OST later in a post-processing stage. This felt exactly like being part of the OST orchestra, where I would have the duty of directly contributing to the game music. Nonetheless, this had a bit of "adding even more gravity" to a score that was already perfect — and to make things even more difficult, I played along solely by ear, i.e. without any sheets. The tricky part for me, albeit I had listened to the OST many times before, was to instantaneously react to chord changes and a melody which I roughly had memorized, but not exactly note by note.

Adapting the organ registration (i.e. selecting appropriate stops) to find a volume/dynamics level that was compatible with the orchestral part was another challenge that came on top of "just playing matching notes and/or an additional voice". While the intention was to make the organ present of course, it was always thought as an enrichment and strong foundation backbone, which should never speak over the orchestra too aggressively to achieve the impression that the organ would feel "natural", as if it would always have had its place and role in the original score right from the beginning.

In remembrance of my passed-away grandmother, who would have celebrated her 100th birthday on the date of this release.
