This is a Smash Bros. styled arrangement I made for Zero's Opening theme from Mega Man X5, however it's modeled primarily after the version from the Beta version. The chord progressions and slower tempo in that version would be the primary difference giving a more melancholy tone more in tune with X5's tone.

Although this is an arrangement based off one version, it takes a bit of spin from both versions of the theme which I tried to create into it's own thing.

I desperately want to be able to play as Zero again especially after what happened to MvC:I, so it would be amazing for me to be able to main Zero in a game like Smash Bros (even though I'm aware of his status as an Assist Trophy and Mii Costume). I have another arrangement from the MMZ franchise I started before this one which is going through a bit of polish before I'll be uploading that too sometime next month, look forward to that.

Opening Stage (Zero) - Rockman X5 Beta [Smash Bros. Ultimate Fan-made Arrangement]

Hey everyone! I wanted to try writing a different RPG boss theme sometime capture that area more than the standard battle themes I've been making. Battlefield of Unresolved Conflict was REALLY fun to write within the past few days, to the point where I'm feeling very confident about it in particular.

At some point I was considering this being the 2nd half of my current WIP boss theme for Concealed Mythos, however the contrasting tone and genre I felt was too much of a jump that it'd take away the focus of either or leading me to decide keeping them separate boss themes. 

Hope you enjoy this track!

Battlefield Of Unresolved Conflict

Heya, back with another arrangement! This remix in particular was made for a challenge on arranging a song to be in the style of something more relaxing so the ideas resulted into a little improv I made in 3 hours. This was back on the 4th of April. I do want to branch out to more styles and genres since it's not only fun to experiment with but also would like to develop myself more. Hope you enjoy this!

Faith is for the Transient People - House Remix

Cherished Flower is a character theme for my character Avril for if she were in a fighting game.
Lately I've been on big mood for making fighting game songs, particularly character themes. I started a good amount of them lately in August and hope to be able to show as much as I can within this month.
I'm pretty proud of this song as I've felt that it's a very big improvement compared to my previous rock-heavy songs and overall quality to mixing and composition.

Huge thank you to Artoriuslima for drawing my commission for Avril, the illustration turned out amazing! You should check him out below:

Cherished Flower - Avril's Theme

Graceful Moonlight is a theme for my character Kira for if she were in a fighting game. The style I was going for here was inspired heavily by Raito's style (Melty Blood/Under-Night) which I thought would make a good contrast to the more rock heavy songs and do well to fit her character.

This song was actually started a day later after starting Cherished Flower, I was just on a roll for starting up character themes that week (I prompted about 4 of them), only just now have I uploaded this after some careful mastering which I've felt I just started getting the hang of lately (with Cherished Flower being the starting point). I'm also super proud of this song too, and hope you enjoy it!

Huge thanks to Artoriuslima again for drawing my commission for Kira, with an amazing turnout that I couldn't be happier with. You should REALLY check him out below, he still has commissions open as of right now:

Graceful Moonlight - Kira's Theme

Self-Destruction

The Search was made all the way back in late July, however I never got around to polishing it until lately. This is meant to be a 2nd Stage follow-up to Past the Stars and using the same vein and style to maintain consistency between the transition between stages.

Apologies about the lack of activity for this month of October, I've been busy with quite a few things including opening up commissions on my Twitter. I've been meaning to maintain a healthier ratio of Originals and Arrangements to upload but have been leaning more towards creating originals as of late too. Though do expect some more arrangements frequently since I've been working quite heavily on that too.

Hope you enjoy this one!

Second Mission - The Search

Path of the Unwavering is a character theme for Rain for if he was in a fighting game. Was trying to go for a cool vampire rock vibe with this one

I started this song within the same week as the other two, however there were multiple times where I wasn't satisfied with the melody so there's been multiple revamps compared to some other WIP's that I've been figuring out. Needless to say I finally got over that and turned this into another song to be proud of.

Huge thanks to Willoweiss again for drawing my commission for Rain, I really love how this turned out especially since I was having a hard time finding an artist that was just the right fit. You should check them out below!

Path Of The Unwavering - Rain's Theme

Vicarious Drive is a fighting game theme made for if my character Xenos if she were in a fighting game. I was going for a Drum n Bass feel inspired by the electronic feel from MvC3.

This song like the other 3 was started back in August, the base song was already finished for awhile but it felt quite underwhelming in comparison. However I started to work on making it work just right and it turned out amazing. Especially when you compare this to my first DnB song (End of Moonlight), it feels really rewarding finishing this in it's final state.

That marks the last of the character themes for the year, I hope you enjoyed listening to this small series so far! :D

Huge thanks to Noe-sensei for drawing my commission for Xenos, the turn out for it was great! You should check her out below!

Vicarious Drive - Xenos' Theme

Death of Hatred is meant to be a theme for Kira when she activates a powered up state in a fighting game (similar to a Dragon Install/Overdrive). 

This song was started back in September a little bit around the time before I released Graceful Moonlight, I thought it would be cool to give her a theme that would play when she uncovers her Vermilion Eye in battle which has her strikes and movement become more direct and deadlier, contrasting the elegant and mesmerizing style of her personality without it's influence.

A little bit of context for the Vermilion Eye is that Kira wasn't born with it, she got it from being cursed upon her by the leader of the group who lead on her during a tragic attack during her past from a group of people. The eye itself really enhances the strength of those who have it while constantly trying to instill constant negative thoughts to it's host especially on those that's in it's sight. It's really a curse all things considered it tampers/strengthens with said negative emotions which causes Kira to loathe that part of herself from then on. Up until evens and experiences she shared with her guildmates during the adventure that she slowly is able to come to terms with it, and to the point control it for a short period of time before since it's no longer out of control from those feelings of anguish. Hence the "Death of Hatred" for herself.

Huge thanks to EmmaPans_ for drawing my commission for Kira, the piece turned out amazing! You should check her out below!

Death Of Hatred - Kira's Theme (Vermilion Eye Unleashed)

There was a couple of problems with the old version, mainly the kick drums being too quiet. I'd usually wait until all the other songs for Concealed Mythos are finished before revising old ones, but I got sidetracked from other pieces/covers.

[Revised] Concealed Mythos - Reassurance (Etrian Odyssey Mobile Battle Theme Cover)

I'm back with another Concealed Mythos track, this song is a little bit more on the experimental side of things where I try to not only make a song set inside a cave full of sand, but also where I can make a song without the use of a piano being in the lead or background of ANY part. I didn't want to stick to a transition formula and essentially tried to make it not "samey" with the other labyrinths. I can for sure say I'm proud of this one.

On a side note, I've laid just about all the songs I'd be doing for Concealed Mythos, so things can work out more smoothly and in an focused fashion.

Concealed Mythos - Sinking Shadows (Quicksand Caverns)

It's been 6 months since the last Etrian Mobile theme I've done, but here I finally got another one at last, most of my experimentation with this one was with the instruments for this song, otherwise I went for a more straightforward approach to this one.

Apologies for taking so long to get this one out, I've been dealing with quite a few things, I'll get out something special for the next song which I have mostly laid out to make up for it.

Concealed Mythos - Inevitability Of Our Predicaments (Etrian Odyssey Mobile F.O.E. Theme Cover)

This song is finally complete and my first original battle theme composition, it's meant to take place after the turning point of events happening in the labyrinth. It's almost been a year since I've started Concealed Mythos, I plan on going back through all my tracks eventually and remastering them after I finish with the rest of this music collection. Stay tuned for that!

Concealed Mythos Reclaim The Hope That Was Lost

Right here is a cover to the boss theme to the lost mobile game "Etrian Odyssey Mobile". It took me awhile to figure out what I should do with the song since it's got a mellow tone to it and that wasn't something that I wanted to replace. Instead I got the idea to use that as a build-up inside the boss fight kind of like how EOV does with it's final boss themes. That eventually lead me to thinking of ways I can expand this motif in different intense directions for the latter half of the song.

Though the original is for an end-stratum boss, the intention I had towards this song was more so of fighting specific end-stratum/mid-bosses, I won't get into too much detail but it's very much for having to fight with allies you've gotten to know well on your adventure.

This is most likely the last Etrian Mobile song for Concealed Mythos I'll be covering to a great extent like this, though I won't be opposed to doing more in the future, just nothing bigger than simple remasters.

Concealed Mythos - Lament of Crossing Paths (Etrian Odyssey Mobile Boss Theme Cover)

Right here would be the 2nd battle theme starting on the 4th-5th stratum (Transparent Blizzard and Abandoned Laboratory) of the stratum, after some very severe happenings unveiled about the labyrinth and how much of a dent it's put in on those who venture it. Reclaim The Hope That was Lost would be used for the 6th-8th stratum.

I went for a different tone compared to the other battle themes where it's not very triumphant as the first neither as deadly as the 3rd and went for a middle ground that has a bit of uncertainty in it's theme.

Concealed Mythos is turning into a more ambitious project than initially started with 7/13 classes have been thoroughly completed, the map layouts and enemies for the first couple floors have been finished, designs for each class have been thought out, etc. It's just a matter of figuring out how to program all this so if I do get to doing that, you'll be the first to see it on my YouTube channel.

Concealed Mythos Point - Blank Lies

Here I wanted to expand on the kinds of Battle themes that I make outside of EO-styled, Breezing My Destiny is more in line with the less intensive side of things which took inspiration from TLoH:TitS and Unlimited SaGa respectively.

Breezing My Destiny

Originally this was going to be a simple Mega Man X-styled cover but by the time I finished it, it wasn't something I was satisfied in creating or listening to so I decided to go for an arrangement/regular cover instead of letting the MIDI I made go unused.

I remember playing Network Transmission at around 12 and it being pretty hard only getting as far as Quick Man's stage, but I remember the songs being really good. This being no exception from Yousuke Yasui either.

It's been about 2 years since my last Mega Man video so I'll try to keep on that a bit more in the future, and although it's been a few months, I've still got a lot of things in the work for Concealed Mythos.

The MIDI I made: http://www.mediafire.com/file/e76zhoclf38bg5q/Blazing_Internet_MIDI.mid/file

Blazing Internet - Mega Man Network Transmission (Cover)

This song is meant for a challenge in the VGML Discord server (https://discord.gg/uv6vHGg) where we compose a boss theme based on ourselves. I went ahead and went through making a 40 song medley including original & covered, public & un-released (though accessible in said discord)songs that I made.

It was a bit of a challenge the more I completed of the song but eventually found a way to make it all work. Will you be able to guess all 40 songs? (Or at least the 23 I uploaded to Youtube.)

Unchecked Egotism: The 40 Song Onslaught

It's been awhile since I've uploaded a Concealed Mythos track, but after a bit of a break I found a bit of a groove again to get things going again. This time this song is meant for the town's night theme and song played in the tavern/quest-area of the game. I wanted something that'd capture  relaxing after venturing in the dangerous labyrinth, and something for those who like going in the night to prepare beforehand.

I have one more Concealed Mythos track I hope to get out before the end of the year so stay tuned for that coming up.

Luxuriate For Tomorrow's Journey - Concealed Mythos

This track for Concealed Mythos is meant to be served as the first battle theme for the beginning stratums, what new explorers would be hearing as they first get accustomed to the labyrinth's dangers. Whatever reasons your guild has for traversing this area, I tried to capture that feeling of excite that other EO titles have in their first battle themes. Up until you start discovering the truth that is...

Originally I was going to upload this in the middle of December, however I was stuck in a loop trying to finish this song until just a few days ago of after forcing myself to take a break from FL Studio. Sooner or later I'd have to have made a first battle theme for Concealed Mythos once development starts branching into a real game instead of using Reassurance and other EO covers.

Speaking of which however, it's been awhile since a lot of my older songs have been made and I'm looking into remastering them for better mixing with my current skills than back then.

Hope you enjoy!

Concealed Mythos - Rise Up to Adventure

Past The Stars is meant to be part of the first level of a Shoot 'em Up game, I decided to take it more simple with this composition, but seeing how nice it was turning out in a short amount of time lead me to focus on this song to be released for the month. I've always wanted to do more of these with just how amazing the soundtracks can be in this genre (ESCHATOS, ZeroRanger, etc.)

Originally I had another Mega Man cover planned that's near completion, I'd like to take a bit more time on that so it's refined and ready to listen to without any rush.

Due some new occurrences in my life I may be busier than usual and apologize if there's more than a month delay between my next posts in advance.

Hope you enjoy this track! (:
