this is criminally underrated. good job on this

Xander Martin requested a WL4 cover of this from me. Unlike some of his past requests this one seemed easy enough to warrant actually following up on. So I took a stab at it. 

At first I was using WarioWare, inc. as my standard for which sounds I could use. Actual Flute and Pan Flute sounds would be open to me this way, and the choir as well. 
[30,2] was an absolute shoe-in for the chorused plucked string, so that was obviously the first thing I did. I also went to the trouble of making this with Sappy playback in mind, unlike some of my other recent WL4 covers. 

Because of these 2 things I'd been flip-flopping on the idea of going full Arabian Nights with this waarangement. Finding ways of limiting the # of sound channels and # of voices while keeping audio seamless put the idea of also limiting myself to base WL4 instruments (justl ike good old day) in mind. 

So, after the initial arrangement was finished, I basically halted production for a while. I finally took a drug holiday this week, and I may resume it tomorrow (not sure just yet).
But anyway, today I came back to work on it a little more, since I remembered not being satisfied with it where it was. I did a bunch of patch event changes, and spruced up the choir part (which is now strings). 
For a while I had the 1st Flute set to be the Soft Electric Piano, but ended up changing it to [113,2], the Arabian Nights shanai. I ended up leaving the echo as [5,2] though, because it sounded like an echo for just the flutier portion of [113,2]'s sound. This gives the illusion that the lead is a doubling.

SNES cover of the GBA Bionicle Heroes's first level. 
I started making sheet music (https://musescore.com/user/19512716/scores/9429106) at the end of the year, using the S3M file for reference. Then I started making a MIDI... also using the S3M file instead of the sheet. At the end of transcribing/drafting it, I did a Ctrl+N and started making this. 

I still have yet to go back and finalize the MIDI version. That was around the 13th. That's when I uploaded this, also. I just never went public with it, thinking I was actually going to work on it a bit more. Who knows? Maybe I will, but that'll probably be around when I go to finish the MIDI version, finally.

I couldn't find an EP sound I was happy with, so I went to the trouble of downsizing the DYNOLEAD sample from the actual thing and bringing it into C700. The choices for every other sound I was happy with.
I was very meticulous with the note velocities for the EP's notes. I wanted to make sure that was absolutely right - mostly for accuracy's sake.

The whole point of making this a SNES cover in particular is directly inspired by how Tom's seq' files only used 8 voices - EVER. That, plus a playback error with a mirror for Zaktan's Temple on YouTube, makes me wonder if the music in-game is still running sequences after all, or if it's streamed like I've believed for the past 4 years.

I have always loved Grassinio's music, either Undertale and non-Undertale, but out of all, his "Checmical Plant Past" is my favorite. Thank you, Grassinio, for being such a wonderful musician.
