Alic(ia) - Project R x PogoMix

This was bouncing around in my head since last year; I tried merging Chun's Alpha 3 and 3S theme... to get something I thought would play for an older, more mature Chun-Li. Here's the final result.  I didn't include her original theme as I felt..well.. it's been done to death : )

Resolution Vox - Elder ChunLi Theme

Quick little beat for 3400 subs! Thanks a ton everyone.

Sea Score - Type R 64

Impromptu collab between DJ Kippy And myself. Sampled his Space Dandy bump and this was final result. : ) something to get me out of this minor slump, but I hope it's enjoyable.

A commission for MewTwo Shadow. There was a certain part of the trailer music he wanted remixed to be a little more bouncy, and this was the final result. Definitely something new for me, and I hope it's somewhat enjoyable for you : )

Hajimaru - For SSB4 [Commission]

Got this idea in class one day when I remembered the little piano part that Rukunetsu had put in one of his tunes.  I really don't remember what tune it was, but I do know that it was him, lol!  ANYWAY, I wrote this while in class because IDGAF, I hope you all like it!

Looped twice and set to download!

When it comes to making music, Swindle goes down as a 'true craftsmen'. You can listen to a Swindle record and hear that he is a true fan of all music. Combining Dubstep and Grime with Jazz and Funk, Swindle's style is truly unique and his latest offering on Gilles Peterson's Brownswood imprint is something truly tasty. The Walter's Call EP is a heavy combination of everything that Swindle sonically embodies and he's treated i-D to an exclusive mix. Press play on 35 minutes of pure bass and jazz.

Swindle - Walter's Call EP is out now via Brownswood Recordings: http://bit.ly/swindle-walterscall

Here's hoping I did this track some justice - Had a blast making it, and I do hope you enjoy.

OMAKE 8 - Thunder Force 4 (R-Concept)

I've never heard an arrangement of Metal Squad that did the Heavy original justice!
Official arrangements always had the guitar played an octave up and made the song seem more like an 80's Rock song rather than a heavy Metal rock fest.
I've always wanted to do this song justice! But up until recently I never believed I possessed the skill to make a worthy version! Come Christmas Eve I decdied "fuck it, i'm gonna make this song in a week for MAGFest X! and make it with FM Synth+Moog Bass! It's gonna be a heavy Metal FM tribute!" 

So I did!

However, I did turmoil with the song structure. The way the original song is done , I find to be so perfect and it has a great feeling to the whole thing.
I didn't want to change that too much, but I still wanted to find my middle ground as always.
I found that by changing  up the end of the first chorus and the second intro into variations/harmonized/new lines it helped keep the feeling of the original structure of the piece while striking some middle ground. And then there is the break down sections which are all love love love tributes to the Sega Genesis's FM sound. It started as just the one section of the first verse into it. But then I found Requiem of a nameless victim would be PERFECT to add into it without dragging Metal squad on too long. But then I also had before remembered a melody that went perfect with the section.
BUT I COULDN'T REMEMBER WHAT GAME IT WAS FROM. So I sat and sat thinking of what it was and then it hit me it was Phantasy Star Online. So I found which song and poof there it was! and it was only a key a Half step away from what I remembered.

I tried to play all the guitar lines as physically possible without cheating. As you'll see in the intro, I just couldn't do that part accurately/fast enough. I could play it perfectly @ 75% speed but my picking hand just can't keep up. I'm a little ashamed of that haha.


I also did something I've never done before. Both on purpose and as an experiment, I programmed the bass with a FM patch from the DX7 layered on a sub bass sound from a Minimoog.
I think the result is REALLY FREAKIN COOL.
I can't state how much I LOOOOVE Moog and FM Synth basses.
I really wanted to try something different rather than an electric bass to stay true to Metal Squad's FM roots!


I hope you guys enjoy this! I had a blast creating it! The last day I worked on it for nearly 24hours straight to finish it!
