Hiii so I seem to have posted a bunch of stuff on youtube that I haven’t updated here! For the sake of completeness and because these are quite nice….
‘Return to the Planet’ and ‘A Broken World’ are tracks from the Final Fantasy VII Remake soundtrack by Masashi Hamauzu that are original to that score – and, as you might be able to guess from the titles, really emotionally charged.
I did a fairly faithful piano arrangement:
And a really reimagined/new genre’d orchestral/soundtrack one:
Another Final Fantasy VII Remake track done in the (broad) style of the original FFVII game. Actually this piece is really such a long way from the original style/genres and I didn’t completely rewrite it to make it fit, but I tweaked a few things and of course used the soundfont, so it sounds kinda like the original. And it sounds cool!
Also a little while ago I did the same with Avalanche’s Theme:
(Which I think actually sounds pretty reasonable as a FFVII era track.)
I made a video for RealFont piece from last year 🙂
A piano rearrangement of a lovely theme from FFVII.
Sheet music:
Holding Thoughts in My Heart arr. Final Fantasy VII by sonatina_3
Three looping game music type pieces I wrote using the sounds from Final Fantasy VII, based on these pictures:
(kind of, haha.)
Something a bit different though; I filmed myself making a little game music track on Logic:
Jessie is a character in Final Fantasy VII, and the recent remake. She was always my favourite! The new composers gave her some theme music in the new game — this is my arrangement, making the new music sound more like Nobuo Uematsu’s original game score.
I recently discovered bitsy…
a very quick non competitive/urgent ‘game’ about a puppy on an adventure, with some of my music loops.
credits:
‘Searching for Friends’ from Final Fantasy (Nobuo Uematsu) in as close as possible to the style of ‘What Shall We Die For?’ (Hans Zimmer) from Pirates of the Caribbean 3.
It’s kind of an active/interactive way to analyse a piece’s arrangement/orchestration!
(This is from years and years ago; I’ve done something similar a few other times, but maybe I’ll do more again soon. It certainly will be a lot easier on the old CPU/RAM than it was back then, whew, that was struggle.)
