Aye, this is my entry for FamilyJules7x's Challenge! Why does everything have a yellowish tint? I must have messed up the white balance on my camera, let's just say it's to add a nostalgic feeling. (Actually nevermind, its blueish now that I have changed the color temperature settings on youtube, whatever) I could go on and on about this one, but the deadline a awfully close so there's no time for a long description! Here's the track list:
1. Flight of the Zinger
2. Crocodile Cacophony
3. Bayou Boogie
4. Stickerbush Symphony
5. In a Snow-Bound Land
6. Jib Jig
Now that I have time, let me elaborate a bit. I already hear you saying "dude, it looks like you're only playing half the notes in the intro, what sorcery is this?". Well you would be right, I'm only playing half the notes, the other half are played by a delay with 0% feedback and 50% mix. It took me a while to figure out what the hell was going on with that synth line, and that's the closest thing I found.
Also, I feel this is a step forward compared to my previous covers in terms of mixing and audio quality. I actually started using multi-band compressors for my guitar sounds, and holy hell do they make a big difference. Even though the mixing was really rushed in order to meet the deadline, I think I'm getting there.
I've been requested to put mp3/wav download links, so I'll look into after I cool down a bit, it's been one crazy week...
Goin' for gold.

@MoonJellyGames 9 жыл бұрын

I can't get over how freakin' good this is. Not only is each song played beautifully, but you've managed to make the songs blend very naturally even with a wide variety of tracks. This has got to be my favorite cover of any game soundtrack and it's going onto my iPod immediately. If you ever make it available to purchase, I'll be all over that. I'm curious though: Did you ever try to work Lockjaw's Saga into the mix? Or does that song's hook rely too heavily on the drums to make it suitable?
