Hey again guys.
Here's a new version of a song that got the ‘resubmit’ vote back on 03-10-2008.
Remixer: Random Hero
Song Title: Forbidden Memory (of a Forgotten Dream)
Game Source: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Genesis) - Hidden Palace Theme (Sound Test: 10)
Other sources: NONE! other then my own ideas.
Sequencer: FL Studio
Instruments: EWQLSO PRO XP Gold & Symphonic Choirs
Ok, I think I have addressed most of the issues (but probably not all, and I may have added some new ones too) brought up by Liontamer, Palpable, and Malcos that were found in the original version of this song.
The biggest thing I did was transposed the whole song down 3 semitones, allowing the violins to play their parts without straining too much and also opened up the top registers of other instruments that can better handle the high notes. I also reworked a few areas, added some humanization, added some harmonies, added another instrument (a very sparingly used flute) and used a much better Harp sample then before (no it wasn’t pizz strings, it was a clean, unprocessed harp sample hahahaha). I think it sounds much better now. Hope you guys think so too!
Cheers
Ryan

Just noting, this was juuuust over the 6MB filesize limit (6,291,456 bytes), so we'd need a new, slightly lower encoding if this passes.

I didn't think this track needed too much more to get over the line, and I'm definitely feeling a lot more flow and humanization to the piece compared to last time.
I loved the arrangement before, and you definitely lifted it up to a more cohesive level, Ryan. This was a very mature-sounding arrangement, and the dynamics here were excellent. Nice work, man. I really think your grandfather would have enjoyed this piece.
YES
