I love how this track starts! The rest's very nice too. Good job :)

It's been a few days, so here come two more music files. :V More from that project (I think that's basically implied at this point. xD)

This theme plays in a small outlying village in Kerlynzia, an empire where a large portion of this project's story takes place.  This village, La (roughly translated, 'La' means 'missing part' or 'removed bit' in Kerlynzian) has always sat on cliffs on the eastern coast overlooking the last living sea. 
Since the days of old, it's been home to two kinds of people: Farmers, and fishermen. In fact, this place would be entirely inconsequential to the rest of the Kerlynzian Empire at large, if its ruling noblewoman hadn't completely vanished off of the face of the earth. Of course, most of the rest of the empire forgets La exists. As such, the Imperial Knights task a useless former deserter with tracking her down. A deserter from the isle of Qaimusu, a scrawny one-eyed girl with a chain-smoking problem.
She arrives amidst relentlessly pouring rain that has been pelting the whole southern half of the empire for weeks.
Aside from the fact that she can't light up a smoke, this is the least of her worries. Something about lady Kiryl, the noblewoman of La really really bothers the girl from Qaimusu. A gut feeling. Perhaps a scent from childhood... something familiar that can't be shaken.

This theme is actually an arrangement of this; https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/dream-sea-lyrikos-theme
There are storyline reasons as to why, yadda yadda, etc. Interesting to note, though, this version you're listening to was written first -- back in 2003, in fact. Back then, I was only using MIDI, and didn't have a very good mastery of composing yet, but I recently revived the MIDI for use in this project, alongside the arrangement I just linked, as they are thematically related. I didn't use all acoustic instruments, despite the fact that the setting is a very rural one. This might throw some listeners off, but the emotions of a song are more important than the method by which they're brought to the listener! Besides, animés put rap-metal to ninja fighting scenes, so this is totally cool, right??

Enjoy! Or like, don't. xD

EX TRIAL (Stage 4)

Night Walk

I'm working my way through the second Elancia Chronicles book and album. I realized that while the Isle of Qaimusu itself had different themes for each of the time periods Verse remembers, the island's temple did not.  I had two themes for it, both of which I'm still quite happy with, so I went ahead and made a third for the final era, when Verse returns as an adult towards the beginning of the second book. The download will be available on my Patreon soon. Enjoy!

Temple of the Sea Goddess

probably one of my favourite remixes I've done from the DKC games so far -- really happy with its results still~ c:

I associate the key of C minor with a deep, navy blue colour. Water is seemingly also blue, but I wanted to add a hint of "pollution" by having a chord in a key that's different than C minor. The pacing of the track was inspired in part by DKC's slower-paced water songs, but also by lo-fi in general (I feel like that genre is very liquid-y, very easy to listen to)

Water [2HAC Vol. 10]

Cybernetic Ocean

...and now for something completely different.

The third Elancia album is coming out soon, and this song is a part of it! Stay tuned!

TRAIN

Bajandrus is one of the countries from the Elancia Chronicles series. Verse and company spend a decent amount of time here later in the series. It's got a sort of latin feel to it. Half of the country is jungle and the other half is desert, separated by a mountain range. This is the theme for unnamed towns/villages on the jungle side. My main inspiration for this one was Grandia's OST.
Remember, the sun still rises tomorrow. Stay safe.

Bajandrian Village 2

The Central Checkpoint, Zaere sits smack dab in the middle of the southern quadrant of the Kerlynzian Empire. It's the main military base in this quadrant (the oldest one in the empire.) It's also where Verse is based out of for a majority of the second and third books in the Elancia series. It's a lot different from the night time one for sure! Much more military-ish! During the day, trainees are out in the fields sparring, or running exercises. The Empire's getting ready for war, after all... This theme uses the Imperial Knights' main theme from the second album, also!
Art of Verse in her work uniform is by Renz! This song will appear on the third album.
