Orchestration of Mendelssohn's op19 no4 'Confidence'

Digging, heavy lifting, hammering, screechy metal to metal contact. Hard work that some put in their sweat and blood to make a living. This piece is devoted to all those who work so hard and may not even be thanked for it. A salute to grunt work and the people who pursue it.

The intention of this project was to create a transition from an 8 bit environment to a depiction of reality. 8 bit is well known as the texture of sound that were used by video games during the 80's through to the 90's, a very simple yet a very identifiable texture.

To achieve this goal, a scenario has been used to ease the way of the transition. The protagonist of the video game fights the most powerful force of the video game, The Boss! As the Boss grows stronger, so does the texture of the sound from 8 bit to the synths that we are used to hearing today.

It is not really clear who wins in the end. Some say it's the last cry of the Boss, the others say it's the triumphant yet psychotic laugh of the Boss. I leave the interpretation of that to you. Who do you think wins?
