Chilly Lullaby (Pikmin 2 - "Valley of Repose" Remix)

Hey! Here is my second holiday VGM cover for the season. Pikmin 2 is one of my all-time favourite games: I love the beautiful and peaceful yet mysterious and dangerous atmosphere of the world. The gameplay is just so interesting and endearing and reflects Miyamoto's typically ingenuity. Plus, what's not to love about the adorable pikmin? I just love the Pikmin series so much, so its nice to finally be covering a song from one of the games. I've been wanting to for quite a while. This arrangement is quite a departure from my usual style. I was inspired to create this sort of orchestral-hiphop sound after hearing the Nintendoland arrangement of this song. While not quite a hip-hop style beat, it had this neat sounding rhythm that gave the piece a new feeling and sense of energy. I wanted to work with a similar concept, but in a different way. This style is way out of my comfort zone, so this piece was a bit of an experiment for me. As I've mentioned before, I'm pretty clueless when it comes to making beats. Plus, I had to recreate a lot the melody by ear, as there is not much in terms of midis or sheet music for this song. So, hopefully this turned out okay! That's it for today. Have a good one! Tune in tomorrow for a cover of some wintry Mario Kart levels :) ~~~~~ Pikmin is the property of Nintendo "Valley of Repose" originally composed by Hajime Wakai Arrangement made in FL Studio using Kontakt 5 Sound Libraries used: Kontakt Factory Library, Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra, FL Studio Library, Triforce NES Synthesizer
