Personal Pumping Iron and Game Programming Mix

This is the soundtrack I've written to "Dino Racer Turbo Mega Destructor", a short animated movie designed and engineered by David Carron, a student in animation for cinema.

He basically asked me to write a metal soundtrack, but left me more or less in command when it comes to everything else. So I wrote something that could have been an orchestral movie score, always changing and fitting the action, but driven by metal instruments. Check it out, this is pretty unique.

Chain Reaction [Dino Racer Turbo Mega Destructor soundtrack]

This is an arrangement by myself and my bassist friend Wild_Cat, featuring 4 themes chosen from the Gunstar Heroes (Sega Genesis) soundtrack, originally composed by Norio Hanzawa for Treasure : "The End of Battle - To Out World", "Last Party on the Moon", "Empire - The Final Assault" and finally "The Legend of Gunstars".

I put this song together in celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the Dwelling Of Duels, in October 2013, hence the reference in the title. It scored 3rd place, within an amazing bunch of 53 entries, that was a memorable event, and Wild_Cat and I are proud that we could be part of it.

The entire arrangement is a tribute to 10 years of live video game music celebration (I for myself have been a regular entrant for 9 years), filled with hard work and fun. From the very core, it's designed to tell, in a very embellished way, what happens in one given occurrence of this contest.

Part 1 - 0:00 : Unknown musicians from all over the world gather in a single place.
Part 2 - 1:55 : Together, they celebrate video game music, and have a lot of fun playing it live.
Part 3 - 3:51 : But it soon turns into epic battle, because these people are very strong at what they do.
Part 4 - 5:25 : In the aftermath, they congratulate each other, and leave behind them amazing music for all to enjoy.

Dwelling Of Heroes [Gunstar Heroes medley]

"Welcome to the first stage. Blue skies of reality are clouded with enemies, but your skills are legend and the rapid fire of your vulcan cannon is the most powerful of all creation. Nothing can stop you. Time for payback."

This track is part of a concept album called "Prime Legacy", the fictional soundtrack to an imaginary STG.

Unbreakable Wings [Retro arcade shooter opening stage]

Super Metroid - Brinstar Vegetation (Final Version)

Furious Fighter!

I wrote this demo with a stealth action setting in mind.

It's basically an arrangement of a tune I composed in FastTracker 2 during the early 2000s, as a replacement to the background music of GoldenEye 007's opening mission. I used to turn the music volume off and play this on the computer at the same time. Good times !

Story from Revenge 101:

 Chapter 5 - DEFEAT THE BOSS!!!!

Now is your time to do what you came all this way to do: DEFEAT THE BOSS!!!! But remember to not finish him of too quickly, even if he is a rather weak villian. What you want from a final fight is suspension. Preferably things shouldn't go toowell for the hero in the beginning. But just as the villain thinks he has got the hero trappedin a corner and is just going to finish him off, the hero should get a new burst of energy orinspiration or whatever that turns the tables in his favor. Then the hero can easilyclaim his victory and clumsily let the villain escape so they can fight another day.(if you have trouble defeating the villain look for his weak spot. This might just turn the fight around for you.)

 

Story 5

Upon entering Ondmans lair Robotprins gazes upon the malicious figure that is Ondman as he stands in the back of the room and it's all dramatic and stuff.

Robotprins speaks.

- I came here to avenge my parents. prepare to die!

Ondman replies with an evil laugh.

- oh, you silly boy. do you know who I am? I am Ondman. The personification of evil. You can never defeat me!!

Robotprins speaks again.

- Whatever. you are ugly and stupid and nobody likes you.

Upon hearing these mean words Ondmans appearance seemed to grow a little bit and his aura got even more wicked and frightful.

- Have at you, boy!

Ondman yells in his twisted, dark voice and lunges at Robotprins. A wild fight commences with heavy blows from both sides. Robotprins can't seem to be able to defeat Ondman as easily as he had wished for, which causes frustration and anger to grow in his heart.

- You fat, smelly pig! Why won't you die?!!

Robotprins screams out in desperation.

As the words leaves his mouth he sees ondman growing even stronger and eviler as if he was feeding of the negative energy from Robotprins. Now more powerful than before, Robotprins can no longer withstand Ondmans attacks and falls to the floor. Ondman slowly closes in on robotprins with a vile smile onhis foul face.

- I told you that you cannot defeat me. I am eviiiiiil!!!!!

Ondman shouts as he raises his sword. Now our hero is in a terrible pinch!

ojojoj.

But then something happens.

Robotpudding, who has been rather useless in this fight so far, jumps up to Ondman and kisses him on the cheek whilst laughing happily. Upon this joyful impact Ondman backs off and shudders frightfully. His evil aura seems to weaken as does his strength. Robotprins then realizes Ondmans weakness. In the same manner Ondman gets stronger by negativity and evilness, he gets weaker by positivity and goodness. This makes Robotprins set up a brand new strategy.

- You look very handsome today, mr Ondman.

Robotprins says kindly.

As expected, Ondman weakens even further when these words reaches his ears.

- No, please stop!

Ondman desperatly screams covering his ears with his dirty hands.

Now that Robotprins is sure his strategy is working there is no stopping him.

He starts cleaning Ondmans lair, giving him a footmassage and planting flowers in his stinking garden. For each of these good deeds Ondman gets weaker and weaker until he looks like a frail old man. Ondman is now in such a feeble state that it would be a piece of cake for Robotprins to defeat him, but Robotprins is so caught up in doing good deeds, which has replaced the tormenting spirit of vengance in his heart with a hopeful and harmonious feeling, that he forgets about Ondman and their fight. Ondman, now fragile as a flower, sees his chance to flee and slowly escapes through an open window. Only after Robotprins has made a complete makeover of the entire castle into a habitat of joy and peace he realizes that Ondman has escaped. However, Robotprins does not care. No longer does he seek revenge and he hopes that Ondman can turn from his evil ways wherever he has gone to. The people of Ondland, as well as Ondmans minions, are free from the evil hypnotization that Ondman has caused them and are now happy and content. Robotprins makes the now good castle his headquarters and changes the name of Ondland to Goodland which everyone in the land is very happy about. Robotpudding gets a tiny house for himself besides the castle. It is very cute. Happy times indeed!
