SHINee (샤이니) - Last Christmas

My Enhanced Game MIDI collection consists of MIDI files I sequenced and routed through my Yamaha Motif ES8 keyboard, utilising its rather nice-sounding General MIDI samples. The staff view was played with Cakewalk Express and the presentation was recorded with CamStudio. All instruments use the standard MIDI patches unless otherwise noted. To follow the notes in the sequence and to ensure the best sound quality, viewing full screen in 720p (HD) is strongly advised.

Near Christmas of 1998, I wanted to create a Christmas remix for VGMusic fans in the spirit of the season.  Kakariko Village was a practical source for me and I played with some ideas, such as sleigh bells and bell instruments to accompany beautiful strings.  The original MIDI disappeared from VGMusic since, but it made its way onto various MIDI sites over the years.

For this enhancement, my goal was to improve on the sound without damaging the compositional integrity of the classic remix.  There is a rustic charm about it that I want others to recognise if they ever heard the old MIDI.  Some additions, such as a cello that follows the bassline of the strings ensemble and a flute that follows the melody during the repeat, should accomplish those goals.  Merry Christmas!

[NOTE: Many may think that the original MIDI was written by a user named after the Hylian hero, but considerable evidence exists proving that I am the author of the seasonal remix.  See example below.
