Disciple of Magic

The third entry of Disciple Month 3 is Magic! ECH!

It took me a while longer than usual because…I didn’t start in-time, but also because I didn’t want to rush things. I have to admit the outcome is nothing to be proud of though. It’s more on the calm side, although it features some more epic tunes as well.

So, aside from the series-typical Fighting of the Spirit (Tales of Phantasia), this time we have Oriental Dark Flight (Touhou 9: Phantasmagoria of Flower View), Gruntilda’s Lair (Banjo Kazooie), Troupe Gramarye (Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney), Twinrova (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time), Magician Type 0 (The House of the Dead), The Ultimate Show (Super Paper Mario) and a strongly adapted Battle With Magus (Chrono Trigger).

This time I tried a lot of stuff, especially with mixing and mastering, stuff I wanted to try a while ago, like a different approach, but…it didn’t really work out at all. So I’m quite a bit disappointed. Guess I’ll just continue doing it like I always did…

We’re almost at the finish line. Next is the last regular entry: Life and Death. This HAS to be great, no? Or at least epic? I just hope it works out to be something I can be proud of, before we start the final song.

Disciple of the Sound

The second entry of Disciple Month 3 is Sound! There goes my favorite…

To get straight to the point, aside from the series-typical Fighting of the Spirit (Tales of Phantasia), we have Super Sonic Racing (Sonic R), Miror B. (Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness), Final Boss Phase 2 (Splatoon), Dee Jay’s Theme (Super Street Fighter II), Phantom Ensemble (Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom), Electrodrome (Mario Kart 8) and Music Madness (Donkey Kong Country Returns). I’d say that is quite the collection of tunes worthy of the name “Disciple of Sound”…well, except that Super Sonic Racing thing maybe, but it’s cool enough~

And that’s that. Next time it’s getting magical

Disciple of Time

Yes, it’s that time again. Time (pun intended) for take 3 of Disciple Month!

Since we’re out of elements, we’re reaching for other things now, hoping to be able to continue this pretty successful series. So this time, we have Time, Sound, Magic and (to top it off) Life & Death.

We’re starting with Time. It’s quite the mess actually, with so many epic tunes in the mix, but I think it works. Should I list them? Sure, why not: Time Castle (Persona 3 FES), Luna Dial (Touhou 6), Fighting of the Spirit (Tales of Phantasia), Song of Time (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time), The Extreme (Final Fantasy VIII), Dark Impetus (Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep), Time Eater (Sonic Generations), Epoch (Chrono Trigger), Bloody Tears (Super Castlevania IV as it actually plays in the Clock Tower there, representing the Clock Tower present in pretty much every Castlevania game).

Crazy, right? There would have been even more to work with, but I hope I picked out the best. No Dialga because the better song (Primal Dialga) was already used in Light and I didn’t want to bother with Spear Pillar. Also no Time Man because that theme is way to chilly. T.T.’s theme would have probably cracked everything too…oh well! Let’s go listen:

And that’s the first entry of Disciple Month 3. More awaits of course. Can’t wait to work on Sound
