Battle of the Brave

This wasn’t originally planned, but I kinda had this idea a few days ago. Since the animated series “Bravery Saga” got cancelled a while ago, I’ll turn the songs I made for this series into actual songs. There’s 3 songs affected, the Battle Theme, the Boss Battle Theme and the Special Boss Theme. For this series I included Final Fantasy Crystal ChroniclesKaze No Ne as some sort of leitmotif, this means that part of Kaze No Ne will appear in all of them to some extent.

We’ll start with the regular Battle Theme, which is based on Keroro RPG‘s regular battle themes. As a hint to the cancelled series the song was made for, I called the song Battle of the Brave.

Now don’t think that I just took the song and uploaded it. The original was a minute long loop. The difficulty was to turn that into an actual song. I added some new parts and tried to keep it fresh throughout the song. Of course a song also needs an ending, which is quite an important thing as well. So you see, there is quite some effort in that!

And here’s the video:

 

I just finished the Special Boss Battle Theme as well – a Mega Man X8 Vile Remix – which I’ll upload on Thursday (because that’s a holiday in my country). The Boss Theme, which is an epic Kaze No Ne remix, should be ready next Sunday.

The Forge of Evil

The return of the evil blacksmith: here’s The Forge of Evil [Blacksmith Edit]!

This is a remake of the song The Forge of Evil from 2011, featuring only songs from Super Mario RPG. Like the original, the Blacksmith Edit features Smithy Battle 1 & 2 as well as Beware the Forest’s Mushrooms (aka Forest Maze), BUT the Boss Theme has been replaced by an original part because I felt the boss tune kinda ruined the flow (although the more unrelated Forest Maze surprisingly doesn’t…).

Of course the whole mixing is entirely different (quite an upgrade I would say, but who am I to judge) and I also added some extra percussion to add to the flow. And now it’s about time you listened to it:

And here’s the video, how do you like the new template?

 

This might be one of my favorite songs this year. As for the next one, it’s gonna be super random. I’m literally just throwing things together for that one…

Fysis Oikein Eidolon

Now here’s a song I started a good while ago and finally finished it: Fysis Oikein Eidolon!

It’s a remix of the F.O.E. battle theme in Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth called…F.O.E. (surprise!). In Persona Q, the abbreviation stands for Fysis Oikein Eidolon, which is pseudo-Greek for “Holy shit, what the hell is that?” or something…I think~

I have to wonder why they invented a different name for that abbreviation in this game since it already stands for (depending on where you live) Formido Oppugnatura Exsequens or Foedus Obrepit Errabundus (actual Latin) in the Etrian Odyssey games…I guess the Persona people are just too hip to roll with the standards?

As for the video, I took some time to change things up a bit. I wanted to keep it simple and yet I still hit a few obstacles along the way…but at least I think it looks better now~

 

Next up we have a remake of a song from 2011 that still seems to attract some attention (not a LOT…it’s not the Fire Emblem song, just so you know). I’m eager to hear what you think about it~
