This is a trance remix of "Final Battle" from the Lufia 2 OST. I decided to keep the remix a lot shorter than a typical trance track so that it doesn't overstay its welcome. I'm pretty pleased with how this turned out; it's the first time I've worked on a trance track and felt like all the instruments and structure came together the way I wanted them to. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Lufia 2 is an RPG that was originally released in 1996 for SNES. The source track is from the final dungeon area. cf. https://www.youtube.com/v/-Fzm2O4Zt-k

This is a little rock remix of the opening theme "I Wanna Be The Very Best" from the Pokémon anime series.
It's my first remix of an anime soundtrack after making a few remixes for several videogame soundtracks.

I'm not the typical die-hard fan of Pokémon, but I kinda loved the anime when I was a child - pretty fluffy and hearty stuff with a nice touch of adventure.
Some time ago, I listened to the opening theme of the anime once again which has a really decent melody I still like - and I thought this could be a nice track for improving my virtual guitar skills.

So, I've put some effort into the articulation of every single guitar note. Sometimes I thought for hours about where the different articulations or playing techniques (like long played notes, hammer-ons, tappings, slides or some FX guitar sounds) might fit best within just a short guitar sequence. 
But I got into it after some time and I think this helped me to improve my music production skills a little bit - especially for creating much more realistic guitar sounds.
Thanks to my really awesome virtual guitar amplifier Vandal, I could give the guitar sound its totally unique style and make a decent final touch with only a little bit hall reverb and a little bit more pinging stereo delay - a really good combination for reverberant but also strong, assertive guitar sounds.

I also enjoyed working a bit more with the MIDI velocity dynamics to bring more life and vibrance into the track - but it's still pretty tough for me to find the right balance between the MIDI velocity dynamics of the different tracks within a composition.
A velocity value change of just 10 out of 127 can make a perceivable difference between hearing single notes in the whole mix and not noticing or at least not feeling them anymore.
But I will work on this much more in the future.

Just as usual I've mastered this remix at EBU R 128 loudness standards and used absolutely no compressors or limiters for keeping the full dynamic range and best possible sound quality.


Enjoy my remix - otherwise your girlfriends might turn into cack-handed Psyducks and get a shitload of headaches just when you are begging for...

Just a little something I wanted to bust out, I know it's not very good and probably not in perfect time, I know I should use a metronome when recording but I fucking hate those things, I just play it how ever it comes out. Anyway this is a great obscure tune from a great obscure NES game called Star Tropics.
