ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQfPOVWX8gY FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged In Amazing Mirror, Carrot Castle shares its music with Moonlight Mansion for some reason. As a little bonus, I decided to write a variation of Moonlight...

ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bz7RsAdu4hk FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged Here we are: the ending! What a cheerful song. It has everything defines Amazing Mirror's soundtrack, such as the funky slap bass and strong brass...

18. Goal Game (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zVz3Vdfhgc FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged I went full-on 80s with this one, making use of hard rock guitars and some cheesy synths. I decided to have some fun - because it is such a short and...

14. Boss (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1qd4kauL-Y FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged I took on a full-out rock arrangement, which is something I've never really done before. As a genre, it is somewhat out of my comfort/knowledge zone, so…

13. Mini Boss (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2-2JclWZNs FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged This song is actually a remix of the classic boss theme from Kirby's Adventure. I tried to translate it into an intense orchestral battle theme. To mix...

ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs4kD4yUQ1k FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged This song was always my favourite track from Amazing Mirror, and still is. I really wanted to get this one right, as it holds special significance for…

11. Radish Ruins (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_tF7BcGCok FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged For Radish Ruins, I knew I'd have to keep that epic orchestral feeling, which is a tricky task. The staccato hits in the orchestral ensemble really give...

10. Peppermint Palace (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4gecLG74bc FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged I wanted to give this theme a fittingly wintry feeling. The original song feels very chilly, but also quite festive and comforting. The steady sleigh...
-
9. Olive Ocean (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKYL3rCOaQg FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged Olive Ocean's theme has always conveyed "danger" to me. I used some moody strings and deep, dark brass to create this feeling. The orchestral staccato...

7. Cabbage Cavern (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUjChyL7HCs FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged This is Cabbage Cavern, which is itself a remix of the "Forest Stage" theme from Kirby's Adventure. I wanted it to have a sort of old school hip-hop…

6. Moonlight Mansion (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQfPOVWX8gY FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged Here is the theme of Moonlight Mansion. I went for a chipper electronic style, with lots of squares and saws and overall chiptune-y sounds. The…

4. Intro Stage (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1pyGYjcQF0 FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged This is the theme from the beginning tutorial stage. It sort of foreshadows later themes such as Rainbow Route and Moonlight Mansion in terms of its...

16. Dark Mind (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPblstqNM1o FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged This track was by far the most difficult for me to arrange. I made it mostly rock, with some orchestral elements. I really hope I did it justice! For…

15. Dark Meta Knight (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ilxjnz7zCSw FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged My immediate thought for Dark Meta Knight was that he needs an intense orchestral-rock theme. I hope I achieved this: I used lots of loud brass, string...

8. Mustard Mountain (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0ZCwramhCU FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged Of all of the tracks, this is the one I've probably departed most from the original. While the original track had an epic orchestral feel, I wanted to…

5. Rainbow Route (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0lJXkLFraM FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged Now we get into the interesting songs. Here is the theme of the first level: Rainbow Route, one of my favourites! It has a steady, march-like feel, so I...

1. Title Screen (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyFU182rOCo FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged Since the original song was so short, I added a couple variations for it to cycle through. Soundtrack originally composed by Hironobu Inagaki and...
-
Happy Happy is Blue (Psychedelic EarthBound Cover)
Sort of a strange choice for a cover, I know. I just felt compelled to create an arrangement of this song completely out of the blue! (GET IT?) This is the theme of EarthBound's insane cultists, the Happy Happyists, who are obsessed with the colour blue. I wanted to go full-out psychedelic with...
-
17. Sparkling Stars / Victory Dance (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_nzMFWbMhY FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged I thought I'd change things up a little bit here, otherwise this song would be very short. I expanded upon the usual "sparkling stars" motif heard at…

2. Menu (Kirby & the Amazing Mirror: Arranged)
ORIGINAL TRACK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9wTkIJa9bs FULL ALBUM: https://soundcloud.com/pixelchips/sets/kirby-the-amazing-mirror-arranged The original song almost sounds like there are voices singing, to me at least. For my interpretation I used a mellotron choir to keep that quirky sound....
-
The Roost (Animal Crossing Cover)
Here is my cover of Animal Crossing's "The Roost"! It's been quite a while since I've done an Animal Crossing arrangement. I drew a lot of inspiration from the Brawl version, as well as the acoustic version from New Leaf. I wanted this cover to have a relaxing (and somewhat cheesy) lounge vibe.…

Water Dungeon
This is a concept for a dungeon theme, inspired by The Legend of Zelda. I imagine it to be a water-themed dungeon. I wanted to create a layering effect where the song gradually builds up over time; maybe each layer of music would correlate to a floor in the temple. Inspirations: Dungeon themes...
-
"Unexpected Misfortune" (Character Theme Concept)
This is a concept for a potential video game character's theme. This song would fit a spooky trickster type character. Inspirations: Don't Starve soundtrack - Vince de Vera and Jason Garner BBC's Sherlock soundtrack - David Arnold and Michael Price A little bit of Danny Elfman / Tim Burton's film...
-
City Trial (Kirby Air Ride Cover)
City Trial is definitely my favourite part of Kirby Air Ride - and the music is my favourite song in the game. There isn't nearly enough good covers/remixes of this amazing song, so here's my attempt at it. I hope you like it! You can also listen to a version without the drum kit on my alternate...
-
Cool Beans! (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Medley)
Hi everyone! At long last, I've finished my university semester! Now I'll have plenty of time to work on music, which is very exciting. I have many songs in the works, both original and covers, so stay tuned! For now, here's a medley of one of my favourite Mario games: Mario & Luigi Superstar…

Sunset Steeple (Kirby's Return to Dreamland - "Sky Tower" Cover)
Hi everybody! Today was my birthday! So here's a little cover of one of my all-time favourite Nintendo songs: "Sky Tower" from Kirby's Return to Dreamland! I've really been enjoying this song lately. Thankfully HAL seems to like it as well, as it has returned in just about every Kirby game since!...
-
Fire Emblem (Bossa Nova Cover)
Hello my friends! It's been a while... I've been quite busy, so I apologize for the lack of uploads. Here's something a little new from me. This is a Bossa Nova style cover of the fan-favourite "Fire Emblem" song from Super Smash Bros. Melee! I think it's one of the most iconic of the Melee...
-
Warrior of Neo Olde Tokyo - The Steel Samurai's Theme (Phoenix Wright Orchestral Cover)
Hi everyone! Hope you're doing well. I played through the original Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney over the holidays, and it's quite an enjoyable game. I particularly like the music; Capcom always seems to knock it out of the park with their soundtracks. I wanted to cover a song from the game, and…

Snowy (Undertale Winter Medley)
Hello there! And Merry Christmas Eve, to those who will be celebrating tomorrow! Here is my final holiday video game arrangement: it's a festive Undertale medley! This piece is an orchestration of three tunes associated with the wintry town of Snowdin: "Snowy", "Snowdin Town", and the shop theme....
-
Cool Cruising (Mario Kart 64 / Double Dash - Winter Mashup)
Hi again! Hope you've been enjoying these festive tunes so far. This is an orchestral mash-up of two of my favourite snow-themed Mario Kart courses: Frappe Snowland from Mario Kart 64, and Sherbet Land from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! I was originally going to cover Frappe Snowland by itself, but I...
-
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,...
-
Snowman (Holiday EarthBound Cover)
Hello, and happy holidays! I hope you're all doing well. Well, the holiday season is here once again. To celebrate, and I've planned something fun: starting with today, I will be uploading a Christmas/winter-themed video game arrangement every day until Christmas Eve! Yes, that's a total of five...
-
A Short Break in Toad Town (Bowser's Inside Story - Orchestral Arrangement)
Hi everybody - Sorry for the lack of new songs. I really intended to upload a song for November, but I just couldn't fit it in: November is such a crazy time at university, and the one song I had planned to upload ran into some frustrating technical difficulties. But here I am with a new tune, so...
-
Idle Vengeance (Mother 3 - "Unfounded Revenge" Orchestrated)
Hey! It's been a while. This is my cover of Unfounded Revenge from Mother 3, which I teased a while back. Also, the intro sequence is Porky's Theme. Unfortunately, I haven't played Mother 3 yet. I hope to one day play it when it is officially released in North America! But from what I've heard of...
-
Rogueport (Paper Mario: the Thousand-Year Door Orchestrated)
Well, here is the finished version of the Rogueport cover I teased last month! I went for a orchestral arrangement, with some 'exotic' sounding flair. Joining the more typical instruments is a sitar, as well as some bongos and congas. The percussion during the second part of the initial melody…

His Theme (Undertale - Orchestral Arrangement)
I know I've already posted a few Undertale songs, hopefully you aren't getting too tired of it! Here's a little arrangement to tide you over while I'm finishing up some of my bigger projects. I'm hoping that my next track will be a full version of one of the teasers I uploaded a little while ago....
-
Halls of Hyrule (A Link to the Past - Castle Theme Cover)
This one has been a long time coming. I've had this one in the works for quite a while: mostly just tweaking it, because I was never quite satisfied with the sound. Honestly, I'm still not sure if I like how it turned out, but maybe I'm just at that point where I've heard too many times. I…
more -
Battle Against a Ghostly Opponent (Undertale's "Ghost Fight" in the style of EarthBound)
I created this arrangement to practice writing songs using EarthBound's soundfont. It's one of my favourite Undertale songs, "Ghost Fight", in the style of an EarthBound battle theme. I think it turned out fairly good for my first try, I hope you enjoy it! ~~~~~ Mother/EarthBound is property of…
more -
Athletic Theme (Yoshi's Island - Swing Arrangement)
Hello again! Here's my arrangement of Yoshi's Island catchy Athletic Theme. I've always thought it sounded a lot like Dixieland / New Orleans stlye swing. So I went for a Big Band style arrangement, inspired by tunes such as The Charleston. I hope you like it! ~~~~~ Yoshi's Island is property of...
-
Deep in Thought (EarthBound Beginnings - "Magicant" Cover)
Here is Magicant, from EarthBound Beginnings/Mother. I thought it would be appropriate to upload a song from Mother on Mother's Day. I've been having a lot of fun playing around with samples and soundfonts from the EarthBound series. I figured it might be cool to incorporate some samples into…
more -
Finale (Undertale - Orchestral Arrangement)
Here we have "Finale", from Undertale. Be warned, this song is from the very ending of a neutral playthrough, so if you want to avoid spoilers I'd recommend not listening to this song or reading any further. It could spoil a pretty significant twist for those with a keen ear. ~~~SPOILERS BELOW~~~...
-
Skulduggery (Don't Starve - Main Theme Cover)
Don't Starve is a super fun, addictive game (especially Don't Starve Together, the server-based multiplayer expansion). It has a great aesthetic: a grim, Tim Burton-esque art style with a fittingly 'sinister' soundtrack. So, here is my arrangement of the main theme of Don't Starve, with a little...
-
Red Dragon March (Super Mario Land - "Chai Kingdom" Cover)
I went for a style quite different than my typical orchestral arrangements: the Chai kingdom is heavily inspired by Chinese culture, so for this cover, I tried to emulate the style of traditional Chinese music. I used lots of pipes, plucked strings, gongs, and shakers to create that East Asian...
-
Super Mario Bros. in the style of Jun Ishikawa
Here's a full version of the Mario-Kirby crossover song I uploaded a little while back. Essentially this is the main theme of Super Mario Bros, arranged in the style of Jun Ishikawa - the composer for most of the classic Kirby games. It's basically a tribute to two of my favourite video game...
-
Yearnings of the Wind (Chrono Trigger Cover)
Happy New Years, everybody! I hope your 2015 was a good one! Here's a cover of the popular Wind Scene from Chrono Trigger, one of the best games I've ever played. I stayed pretty true to the original song, but tried to add in a few new touches, such as the addition of the grand piano, and a beat...
