This song is the first I have made using Fl Studio 12, it is heavily inspired by Japanese soundtrack artists, particularly those involved in anime and Square Enix games like Final Fantasy. I have just recently finished A level and this song marks the beginning and first chapter of my life as a music composer.

Compositions

2. A Heroine's Quest - By Stephen Ddungu

This Song is named The Brawl because, as some of you may have guessed due to the way it sounds, it is heavily inspired by Nobuo Uematsu's work on Super Smash Bros Brawl. I am a huge fan of his work along with other Japanese game OST composers.
This is actually one of my old songs back when I used to use Logic Pro 9 with their built in 'Jam Pack'; as much as I hated how it sounded, I managed to endure and found a way to make Jam Pack actually sound decent. Thankfully I've moved on to using East West and I'm now thinking of doing a remake of this song in the future. 
Let me know if you want a remake. ;)

1. The Brawl - By Stephen Ddungu

This song is a direct answer to "A Heroine's Quest". It involves a technique I often use in my music which is using melodies from other songs I have made and attaching a totally different mood to them. You will recognize it often if you follow my work. 
Our unknown, ambiguous heroine has died.

3. A Heroine's Death - By Stephen Ddungu

I am an enormous fan of Star Wars, I literally grew up watching it and it is one of the things I am passionate about. Therefore I have created my own cover which combines all my favorite songs from the Star Wars movies including the Star Wars The Clone Wars TV series, the new Star Wars Episode 8 The Last Jedi trailer and my own version of Rey's Theme as the finale into one ultimate, epic arrangement! I haven't seen anyone do covers on the Star Wars The Clone Wars soundtrack and I always loved Kevin Kiner's work on Star Wars The Clone Wars, thus I decided I would be the one do a cover on the series' soundtrack and include it in my ultimate Star Wars orchestral cover XD

Star Wars | Ultimate Orchestral Cover - By Stephen Ddungu

The hype for the new Sonic Forces game is unreal and being a mild sonic fan myself, I decided to join the hype by creating my own orchestral cover of the song "Fist Bump". I also sneaked in the Sonic victory fanfare as I think it sounds awesome and it fits so well in this song. As you know, or will come to know, a technique I often use in my music is including melodies from other songs and changing the mood to it to fit the song. When I first listened to Fist Bump, I was just sat there thinking how well the Sonic victory fanfare would go with Fist Bump (as well as how much it sounded like an OP anime opening XD), so I took the liberty of including that melody in this cover. This song was done in 7 straight hours and was definitely a lot of fun to do especially with the word-builder feature for the choir vst I have in Fl Studio 12 however since I only have a demo version, I had to keep reloading the plugin I was using which was slightly bothersome, but overall did not come close to ruining the experience XD

Sonic Forces "Fist Bump" | Epic Orchestral Cover - By Stephen Ddungu

I am finally back from holiday! The hype for the new Sonic Forces game continues with the new villain(Infinite) being revealed a week or two ago. Ever since, the theme of Infinite has been super-glued in my head constantly on repeat, which I don't necessarily mind because it's an awesome song! Henceforth I decided to create my own epic orchestral cover of the song straight after I got back and I have not slept ever since. This song took me 12 straight hours and alot of complaining from my mother due to the noise and her trying to sleep XD But at last it is finished! it was a lot of fun to make as well! Arguably more enjoyable than my Fist Bump cover, but maybe that's because this song was stuck in my head for longer and I was just desperate to make a cover of it XD
Also I included my own ending which should sound quite familiar to those who have listened to Fist Bump ;)
Hope you enjoy!

Hi everyone! Back again! Hope you enjoy my first Sonic cover in almost two years! Although this song isn’t on the top of my request list, this is one that I personally have always thought about doing. A lot of you who keep up to date on my community tab on YouTube seemed to enjoy the preview of this cover that I uploaded while I was still working on it, so for this final version, I made sure I put my all into delivering a powerful performance. For this song, I wanted to create a piece that captures the edginess, tragic history and all round epicness of this character (similar to my Theme Of Infinite v2 cover). Shadow is my favourite Sonic character, so I made sure all my passion went into this piece.

I also hope you enjoy the bonus feature piece at the end (For those who know ;)).
