35 years ago, Namco designer Masanobu Endō and his team followed up the legendary Tower of Druaga with a sequel, Return of Ishtar (イシターの復活). 

This sequel picked up right where the previous game left off. Having felled Druaga and recovered the goddess Ishtar's Blue Crystal Rod, the heroes Gilgamesh and Ki must now escape the cavernous, maze-like tower, overrun with Druaga's loyal followers who have been driven mad by their master's death. At the bottom of the tower lie the fearsome Akynd Knights, the shambling remains of the mighty and evil army that had enslaved Gil and Ki's people to build the tower, before they too succumbed to the demon Druaga's power.

Return of Ishtar, like its predecessor, boasted many innovative features for an arcade title. For one, it was a forced-cooperative game, with the game needing someone to play as both Gil and Ki to advance (if either died, the game was over). A password system was utilized to allow players to pick up where they left off exploring the dozens of treacherous floors of the dungeon. Gil and Ki could gain experience, learn new abilities, find new equipment, and more as they worked their way through the tower's many monsters and secret passage ways.

Driving the game was Druaga composer Junko Ozawa's score, at times both calming and adventurous. Much like Druaga, Ishtar's music is short but iconic within the Namco sound universe. This remix reimagines several classic themes within a synthetic soundscape fused with World music. I wanted to tell the story of the goddess Ishtar, and the blessing and power she bestows on her two most loyal followers, Gil and Ki, as they face off against the countless trials within the Tower of Druaga.

*Your journey comes to a halt as the sea around you begin to broil. You've long been off the map, quite far into uncharted waters, but you didn't believe the tales. You and your crew were adventurers, after all! Prepared for all manner of trial and horror.*

*Unfortunately, you weren't quite prepared for this. The beast explodes out of the water before you have a moment to react. Your ship is torn asunder, and crew tossed into the turbulent waters, disappearing immediately. They've likely gone unconscious, and their fates sealed. But not you.*

*You can put up a fight! You cast a spell that surrounds your body in a protective bubble. You steel yourself, make peace with what will likely be your fate, and plunge into the deep to face off with the Trolual.*

Heroic Stand Against a Greater Trolual

Didn't really like 7's OST much, Junk Man was alright but it was pretty eh until Shade Man, who's my favourite Robot Master just out of them all, so of course I went as hard as possible making it. Might do some bonus things as I said, was making a jazz remix of Elec Man's theme, now if I'll actually finish it is another question.

---THE MAKING PROCESS---
Obviously Shade Man's theme wasn't made with the NES, so this "NES" arrangement might be pretty different. I used squares with an interval of "dissonant" for the string's echo, and the Guitar/Theremin use's JB's echo effect, which yes isn't a thing the NES could do (without making an echo yourself), BUT I don't care it sounds good. Used some panning because the original had it. Struggled with the percussion, maybe it's a bit too extreme but eh I like it. Definitely the most limitation breaking remix so far, I'll try not to push it any further than this. Also I've noticed the remix uploads have gone, 1 -> 3 -> 5-> 7, which wasn't intentional but who knows maybe a MM9 theme will be next oooooooOooOooOOOoo who knows...

I’ve seen the rise of distant dawns 
And face the night when hope was gone 
Each step I take the airs more clear 
For the home I seek i s finally here 

In the Frozen Valley

An aspiring musician, historian, composer, and all-around nice guy, ec's tunes will make you slam with the best, and if failing that, jam with the rest.

I first played piano since when I was 5 years old, and started composing soon after that. I write in a variety of styles, from electronic to chiptune, jazz/funk, ambient, romantic, and more! 

Comments and constructive criticism are always welcome.

Enjoy; now get back to the slammin' and the jammin'.
