…yes, midi is standard, not a particular “sound”, but also it kinda is; we know what that means. Plus it’s a catchy title.
These ones in particular I was trying to go for a 90s game midi ‘feel’, very quickly and unabashedly.
Aerial Combat in particular though I kind of am tempted to redo with full sound, even though it also feels very native to this format at the same time, heh.
This is an arrangement/VGMix based, loosely, on Zelda’s Lullabye. I made this in 2004 on I think the first version of Garageband which contained nothing more specific for orchestral stylings than “Strings” and “Horns” sounds, couldn’t yet use soundfonts, and had no facility to adjust tempi during a piece! worked around all that, and loved doing it. Bits of recorder and oboe and extremely reverby vocal “aaahs” by yours truly.
I think I submitted this as part of uni applications?
It’s all about feeling emotional and nostalgic about video games, hee.
