Last remix of 2021, WHAT A YEAR!

Thank you Hoppy for the commission! 

When they initially came to me with this one, I wasn't too sure if I was up for the task! Three wildly different bangers into one mashup? "The Axem Rangers Drop In", "Fight Against Smithy", and "Fight Against Smithy, Who Likes Transforming" are the bangers in question. I had to try, and I think I managed to pull through with a cohesive product! The original tracks are pretty wild, each with a ton of instruments and a barrage of notes. Trying to adapt the original Smithy Transforming track to modern EDM was difficult because of how busy the bassline is. The Axem and Smithy themes were in different keys so a nice transposition did the trick there. I really wanted to keep the energy of the original tracks so I thought an upbeat Electro House style beat would work here. It's kinda hard to believe they made these slappers so complex back in the day! Hope you guys like this one, Hoppy made some good choices!

(Seriously, get it. You won't regret)

This song is meant to symbolize the final stretch of a big dangerous adventure, parting ways with old friends along the way. 
If this was part of a video game, it would play on the last level before the final boss ;) 

A million thanks to everyone who supported me in the creation of this, especially Clover, CornetTheory and Sebb01.

Made in Reaper using many many freeware plugins, no paid plugins used. Oh also a guitar, i guess. 

Emulating various classic chips (SID, 2A03, SPC700, YMF262), using samplerate reduction and bit reduction on some other instruments to get that nice cozy aliased Amiga feel. The tune was made with 8 note polyphony and certain size limitations in mind, including sampled chords, so that it can potentially be ported to my favorite soundchip, the SNES SPC700, without much loss. (Yes this seems crazy, but i can asure you this fits in 8 channels + 1 "channel" with stuff streamed to the echo buffer from ROM). 

Full list of plugins used: 

38911 bytes, Acon Digital Multiply, Ambient Reverb, C700VST, DD BitCrusher, Digital Drum Compressor (Reaper builtin), Digital Versatile Compressor (Reaper builtin), Dream 64, Guitar Rig 5 (Free Version), JuceOPLVSTi, Leet Delay 2, magical8bitPlug, MH Thump, PanCake2, preFIX, ReaComp, ReaDelay, ReaFir, ReaXcomp, TAL Filter 2, TX16Wx, W1 Limiter.

MELEEEEEEEEEEE

I'm quite pleased with how this one turned out, despite how much trouble it gave me! The chords were a little wonky and it was hard to turn a minute intro into a 3 minute drumstep tune. I hope the result is just as hype as the original. It was interesting combining orchestral parts with electronic elements, and it was even harder to make it sound cohesive and not cheesy. Most of the production process was documented on my YouTube streams so if you're interested in that you can check it out!
