Hello, I was always iffy about arranging this track because the melody sounded too fast for an orchestra. My basic self from earlier usually just hands off fast melodies to the violins or some kind of keys instruments and they would just carry the whole thing. That felt wrong for this particular orchestration and wouldn't add much from the original. So my biggest challenge in this arrangement was to preserve the melody in its original form, while being able to hand it off to nearly all the instrument families of the orchestra. It wouldn't be too ridiculous sounding for any section, including brass to have a burst of speed and dexterity right?

In this last year, my master class professor has basically been the Final Fantasy VII Remake soundtrack. The team of composers have arranged 10+ versions of the iconic battle theme, tweaked into many different styles to suit the different locations and contexts of the battles that take place. I kept this in mind and imagined in the full Deltarune game, perhaps there would be many variations of the battle theme. I wasn't going to do 10+ versions of this, so I only explored each of my ideas for a couple measures, then moved on to the next idea. The final track may sound decently cohesive, but the way I utilize the instruments changes from section to section. For example, in one section I may want the piano to support with the syncopated rhythm, and in other places I want it to play like it's baroque period Bach, and have other instruments follow suit or even fight it off.

My orchestral libraries have been able to handle roughly 80% of all articulations, but doing the fast melody while still leaving room for expression really challenged me here. I've always been lazy with the woodwind and brass side, so here I forced myself to utilize samples from 2-3 other libraries for brass and woodwinds, to make them discernable at such high mph, making more use of solo instruments for clarity. I settled at 133 bpm speed for the song (vs 140 in the original track) that I felt is a realistic speed for an orchestra to play that doesn't sound like it's tripping over itself.

The inherent silliness of the arrangement adds to the comedy of the battles that at many times feel more like slapstick hijinks, or even tender character moments. I wanted the instruments to feel like they're goofing off, with none of the intensity of the boss battle tracks I've previously done.

Deltarune Orchestrated will be available on iTunes/Spotify upon completion of the album.

DELTARUNE Orchestrated - Rude Buster

Elmerninis spared Kirby after taking over. With nothing in his control, Kirby was helpless. However, he didn't give up. Despite the odds, he tried anyway because he had hope. El got bored after taking over the Metaverse and wanted some entertainment. Because of this, he forced Kirby to face crazy experiments made from both friends and enemies. He transformed them into nightmare monsters that were incredibly powerful. Kirby kept fighting through this nightmare, getting stronger with each passing day, or so he thought... Kirby isn't aware he is in a dream labyrinth.

Void Elfilis Lyrics:

I'll be your light, holding your hand out of this chaos waking you from this, pain. 

My hope is strong, open your heart.

Come with me, lets be free, harmony. 

Just trust me. 

Falling stars doesn't scare me, 
I have lots of friends that hold me up to help me save you, 
together we stand tall fighting the darkness that's within us all. 

We are not perfect at all but we believe in One for All and All for One
Can't stop. Push on, on 

Rage, Rage, Against the Dying Light.

If you expected me to not arrange a Deltarune track then you're mistaken!! This game really took me by surprise, as did Undertale when I went into it blind. It's very nostalgic going back to work on arrangements of Toby Fox's music and I'm happy to be able to share them with you! Please enjoy~
