Game Score

An orchestral cover of Kokiri Forest from Zelda Ocarina of Time. I'd never paid much attention to the Zelda music until recently. I wish I had gotten into it much earlier as there's so many good pieces of music hidden behind 8bit blips and blops.

I tried to keep faithful while adding a little of my own style. I know it's a bit samey as my other stuff in parts, but that's just how I compose, I think.

Used: FL Studio 10, Kontakt 5, Spitfire Albion, Solo Strings, Percussion & Harp, Cinesamples CineBrass, HollyWoodwinds & CineSnare, Project Sam Symphobia 2 & True Strike, 8dio Requiem Pro, Private Orchestral Library

Zelda OoT - Kokiri Forest Orchestra

A medley of some of the Zelda OoT music. This includes House, Legend of Hyrule and the main title theme. I wanted to keep original while improving the sound and adding some of my own little bits here and there.

FL Studio 10, Kontakt 5, Spitfire Solo Strings, Albion, British Woodwinds, Percussion & Harp, Cinesamples CineBrass, HollyWoodwinds, CineSnare & VOXOs, LA Scoring Strings, Project Sam Symphobia 1 & 2, Tonehammer Emotional Piano, Orange Tree Samples MesaWinds, Various private orchestral libraries

Zelda OoT - Medley Orchestra

I gave the synthetic orchestra the day off and went the other way for a change, taking an orchestrated piece and giving it the 16bit treatment. This is the Fallout 3 title theme as you'd hear it on a Super Nintendo. I used various SNES soundfonts (sorry - I don't know the source, I just had them from years ago) and downscaled it.

Used:
FL Studio 10, Various SNES soundfonts

Fallout 3 - Title theme 16bit

A majestically marvelous orchestrated rendition of the Portal Still Alive end credits song. I didn't keep too close to the original this time as I wanted to experiment a bit. I also kept the choir in my pocket this time and avoided using them. Hoorah.

Portal - Still Alive at the Orchestra

An orchestral cover of Zelda's Lullaby from Zelda Ocarina of Time. I'd never paid much attention to the Zelda music until recently. I wish I had gotten into it much earlier as there's so many good pieces of music hidden behind 8bit blips and blops. I tried to keep faithful while adding a little of my own style.

Zelda OoT - Zelda's Lullaby Orchestra

An orchestration of the ending theme from Super Mario World by Koji Kondo. I posted a shorter version of this a while back, but this has the ending now where I tested out Sample Modeling's Horns & Tuba. So much awesome.


Super Mario World - Ending Orchestra

*Note* this is an older piece uploaded for Dummyworld.net legacy.

My take on the Stargate TV show theme. Practicing several techniques using True Strike, Sam Horns and the VSL.

Stargate - Theme

An orchestration of the Overworld 2 theme from Super Mario Brothers 3. I kept faithful to the original with a few wiggly improvs here and there. It was a practice in a closer, more intimate orchestral setup. I kept a few detunings and weird things here and there to give it a bit less of a Hollywood feel and more like you've gone to see a crazy orchestra playing some Mario - hopefully that comes across.

Chrono Trigger Symphony : Volume 2 : The Last Day of the World Orchestra (Full preview)

A reorchestration of the Game of Thrones theme. I made it from scratch to test some new sounds and mainly practice. Hopefully I kept the feel of the original while adding my own spin to the piece. It's definitely a lot more brassy than the original but hopefully that works okay.

Game of Thrones (Re)Orchestra

An orchestration of the Main theme from Final Fantasy IV. I wanted to experiment with a mixture of something grandiose and fanfare-y that turned into something a little more string-filled and delicate. Hopefully I kept the feeling of the piece in this remake.

FFIV - Main Theme Orchestra

An orchestration of Song of Healing from The Legend Of Zelda - Majora's Mask. I'd never paid much attention to the Zelda music until recently. I wish I had gotten into it much earlier as there's so many good pieces of music hidden behind 8bit blips and blops. I have a 'making of' video for this piece of music that's coming as soon as I chop it up!

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - Amestris Military March (Re)Orchestra

The original score written for the Corridor Digital short 'Link's Shadow'. Featuring little nods to Koji's Kondo, this delivers a slightly darker feel to the music from Zelda. This video contains only the original elements I wrote for the short - you can find the other parts (Giant's theme & Dark world theme) on my channel!

Obviously as this was used in Corridor Digital's short, please don't use it in YouTube videos and such - I'm offering it to download just for those that wanted it.
