Ocean Lanterns (Donkey Kong Country 2 - Forest Interlude Remix)

The music represented here is an example of some of the original compositions that I wrote in the late 90s in MIDI format. Similar to my Enhanced Game MIDIs, these works use general MIDI samples from my Yamaha Motif ES8 workstation keyboard. Although they were polished for presentation with expression and mixing tweaks, these songs overall maintain the Super Nintendo-inspired composition style that I produced years ago.

This catchy tune is one of a few different area themes that I wrote for Azhavela, a cancelled game that was being developed by Mark Jordan and a few others from RPGamer.  Azhavela was inspired by a text-based, fantasy adventure MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) on IRC by the name of Zhai'helleva, meaning "Wind to Thy Wings" in the Tayledras language of the Valdemar Saga novels.

You would hear this music in Malone, the rainy, tropical continent with several key sites, two of which had themes of their own I created.  Please check the YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yq1ocDJAJpc) for the story.  Originally, this was part of a diverse set of loops I composed in 1996 to demonstrate my ability to write for a friend's game, with simple, four-chord progression was an idea from my best friend at the time.  Inspired by South American flavours, I included acoustic guitar and pan flute.  The name, Quedar, came from my lack of understanding of Spanish at the time, with intention of translating the slang phrase 'What Gives?'.  But I more recently realised that it can mean to stay in a location when travelling.  This meaning kind of fits for its updated role for Azhavela in 1998, when rain was added to suit the environment.  In 2001, the rain was removed from the track and repurposed again for an MMO game at the time, but I retained the rights.  With that in mind, I decided to restore it to its previous incarnation.   Many small tweaks were made for this enhancement, such as diverse velocities in the drums and proper strumming for the guitar, but the sequencing philosophy from 1998 was retained.
